CROSS.ExAMlNA
LemIy Propounds and SchIey Answers During
the Entire DAYS Session,

Washington, Oct. 3O.-The cross-ex-
animation OF Admiral Schley was contin.
ued throughout the court of inquiry to.
day. The progress made was exceed
ingly slow. Practically the whole da
was consumed in questioning the admiral
about the cruise from Cienfuegos to San
tiago and the motives and influences
that governed him in turning back after
his squadron had arrived in the vicinity
of the latter port. This latter branch of
the cross.examination had not been con
cluded when the court adjourned.
The blockade at Santiago, the recon.
noissance on May 81 and the battle OF
July 3 still remain to be covered. 1t Is
hardly probable that the judge advocate
can conclude before adjournment tomor-
row. After he finishes quite a number
of questions prepared by the members of
the court will be submitted. The judge
advocate, in conducting the oss.exami-
nation, used a carefully prepared type.
written list of questions. They called
for comparisons OF statements Admiral
Schley has made, either in his direct tes-
timony, in his communication to the sen-
ate or in his dispatches to Admiral Samp-
son or the navy department, with the ties.
timony of witnesses who have preceded
him and the logs and signal books OF the
other vessels of the fleet. The questions
were not asked in chronological order,
but jumped from one subject to another
and from one stage of the campaign to
another. Throughout the strain to which
the witness naturally was subjected while
under examination the admiral retained
his customary composure. Only once or
twice did he display Impotence or weari-
ness.
The main points to which the cross-ex-
animation was directed today were the
ability of the ships to coal off Cienfue-
COS and the reasons for what is known az
the 'retrograde movement"
The latter point was dwelt upon with
much emphasis and detail and had not
been disposed Of fully when the court
adjourned.
In the course of the cross examination
the admiral said he regarded the depart.
ment's dispatch rather as suggestion
than an order, suggestion which he
carried out after the sea had abated and
the coal supply of the ships had been
replenished.

Washington, D. c., Oct. 27.-The
army board of ordnance and fortifica-
tons, headed by Lieut.. Gen. Miles, has
submitted to the war department for
transmission to congress its report for
the eight months ended June 30. 1901.

5000, 900 to carrying on its work during
the coming year. 1t had balance Of
$2O9, 1852 on hand on June 80 last. The
board urges upon congress the import
ance of making liberal appropriations
for the purchase of ammunition and for
the practical former recommendation to
provide the coast artillery with at least
three practice ranges-one for the North
Atlantic coast, one for the South Atlantic
and Gulf and one for the Pacific, point
ing out that target practice with heavy
guns is practically out of the question
under present conditions.

WATER.DRlNKIN0.
Declared to Be BeneHcial to the Health

Declared to Be Benehcial to the Health
in Various Ways.
When it is considered that the body
Is made up very largely Of water 1t can
readily be understood how important
to health is a constant supply Of this
fluid. Many people have notion that
the drinking Of water In any amount
beyond that actually necessary to
Quench thirst is injurious, and acting
on this belief they endeavor to drink as
little as possible. The notion, however,
Is wide Of the truth. Drinking freely OF
pure water Is a most etficacious means
not only of preserving health. but often
of restoring it when failing.
All the tissues Of the body need water,
and water in abundance Is necessary
also for the proper performance of ev"
cry vital function. Cleanliness Of the
tissues within the body Is as necessary
to health and comfort as cleanliness OF
the skin, and water tends to insure the
one as truly as 1t does the other. 1t
dissolves the waste material, which
would otherwise collect In the body,
and removes 1t in the various excre-
TONS
These waste materials are often &C.
tual poisons, and many headache.
many rheumatic pains and aches, many
sleepless nights and listless days. and
many attacks of the "blues" are due
solely to the circulation in the blood or
deposit in the tissues Of these waste
materials, which cannot be got rid Of
because of an insufficient supply of
water.
Water is accused Of making fat, and
people with a tendency to corpulence
avoid it for that reason. But 1t Is not
strictly true. 1t does undoubtedly often
increase the weight, but it does so be-
cause 1t improves the digestion. and
therefore more of the food eaten Is
utilized and turned into fat and flesh.
But excessive fat which we call cor
pulence, Is not a sign Of health, but OF
faulty digestion and assimilation, and
systematic water drinking Is often en-
ployed as a means Of reducing the
superhuous fat-which 1t sometimes
does with astonishing rapidity.-Youth's
Companion.
