state hospitals will be exhibited this fall

fair. Specimens of. sewing, knitting, Gro
cheting and similar work will be displayed

hibit will mark an advance in the treat
ment of insane women.
Heret ofore the female patients at hos
pitals have had little employment, al
though, the men were usually kept busy
But the authorities have understood the
ameliorative influence of occupation upon
diseased minds. Patients with nothing
to do but mediate recover slowly. When
therefore, experiments revealed that most
Of the women were pleased to take up "fan,
cy work" the innovation was encouraged
The success sof the new expedient will be
amply demons trated at the fair.

Lieutenant Cluverius was al naval cadet
| on the Maine when she was destroyed.
Lieutenant Scott was appointed to the
Marine Corps in 1900. but subsequently
secured transfer to the army.
Since his residence in this city. Admiral
Sampson has been under the professional
| care of Medical Director Dixon, who had
the assistance, since Sunday, OF Surgeon
George Pickrell. Rear Admiral Presley NJ
Rixey. Surgeon General of the Navy. has
also been frequent visitor at the Samp-
son residence, but merely to observe the
case. and give any medical advice which
might be desired in an emergency.
Inc news that Admiral Sampson was dy-
ing did not reach the Navy Department
until late yesterday afternoon. When Sec
retary Moody heard it he sent Lieut.
George l.. 7. Stone of the Bureau of Navi-
cation. to ascertain personally whether
the report was true.
The news that the admiral was passing
away soon spread about the Navy Depart
ment. and brought expressions OF sym
pathy frcm the officers there. many of
whom had served under Sampson in the
West Indian naval campaign in 1895
Medical Diagnosis of Case.
From medical standpoint. the primary
cause of Admiral SIMPSONS illness was
lack of blood nourishment. which caused
wasting away of the brain tissues. This
produced asphasia, or loss of memory and
with partial loss OF speech. The power
to speak was restored from time to time,
but for the most part Admiral Sampson
appeared to have wholly lost the power of
articulation.
Softening OF the brain was a natural
consequence of the diseased condition and
the degeneration In the arterial system,
which was the most dangerous feature of
the case. The weakened arteries were in
cGnstant danger of bursting, which would
have caused a rush of blood to the brain
and have brought on apoplexy.
This diagnosis of Admiral Sampson's
disease was made some time ago. and the
result yesterday justified its correctness.
heavy meal or any physical effort was
liable to have fatal effects. and the
greatest care was necessary at all times
in attending the sick man
The doctors believed that the most
careful scientific nourishment might pre-
vent death by apoplexy, but they were
positive months ago that even IL this
danger were thwarted, Admiral Sampson
was ultimately bound to die of softening
of the brain.
AT times during the past six or seven
months Admiral Sampson had become un-
conscious. and each time the recovery
vas slower than on the occasion .mule-
diately preceding.
month or so ago 1t was believed that
Admiral Sampson might regain sufficient
strength to permit his removal to a re-
sort In New Jersey. where he would have
escaped the intense heat of the Washing
ton summer. and arrangements for TAX
ing him away had practically been com
pleted when the final attack came.

Mr.. HACKETT'S TRIBUTE
TO ADMIRAL SAMPSON
"A Gallant Gentleman, True as Steel, an
Honor to the Service, and to
His Country"

Mr.. Frank W. Hackett, ex-Assistant
Secretary of the Navy. and an intimate
| and loyal friend of Rear Admiral Samp-
son, expressed his sentiments regarding
the officer as follows:
The death Of Rear Admiral Sampson,
In circumstances singularly pathetic, will
fix public attention upon the remarkable
qualities of the man and upon the real
value of the services he has rendered TO
his country
Not to all the people has a knowledge
of the real Sampson been disclosed The
closer his character is studied the higher
Will be the praise gratefully accorded to
him.
Tine American people in due time will
come to admire this brave commander.
even as the officers and men of his COM
mand have always admired and loved him.
SIMPSONS name and fame it is clear
ly to be perceived. will steadily grow. His
memory will be cherished in our history
as one of our best and noblest heroes.
Marked Intellectual Force.
THE admiral was a man of marked in
tellectual force. He was thinker, and
a close student. At the Naval Academy
he stood at the head of his class. He won't
back as an instructor-one of the best
who ever taught there. Later he became
superintendent, and he has left the i'm
press of his teaching and example upon
many younger officer of the navy, who
will grieve at the news of his DEATH
Our navy has never boasted OF a finer
ordnance officer than William T. Sampson.
He had talent for invention. and was |
'ertile of ideas In his chosen profession. |
He was pre-eminently a man of progress. |
But beyond his accomplishments as a the
'retical naval officer. he was in fact a |
rue sailor-a fine, all-around officer on |
'hicboard
When put in command Of the North At
antic Squadron. he showed at once that
lie was the man for the place. The ability
displayed by him at this post was of the
highest type. He knew the art OF war He
vas man to be trusted. He served his
ountry faithfully. Patient, untiring. re-
ourceful, and determined. Sampson was
bsolutely fearless. What is more, he
lad the gift of inspiring those under him
With sense of perfect confidence in his
'ower to lead them on to victory.
A Physical Break Down.
Those who knew him best could not
ut admire the fortitude with which he
ore the burden of the last years. 1t was
ot so much that he faced a physical
reaking down. which told Of sure coming
cath. but he was heartsick. |,
Many OF his countrymcn had not been
ermitted to know the simple truth OF his
nselfish, unremitting devotion to duty.
'et he murmured not. He was content

NOTES OF THE TURF.

Two more American Derby candidates
made their appearance at Churchill
Downs on Monday. when Clearwater and
Andy Williams met in a race at the Louis.
vile track. Clearwater won. while ANDY
Williams finished second.
Both horses were seen at the Benpinr
meeting last fall. and neither gave evil
| dence at that tine of Derby class Andy
Williams was the better of the pair.
Clearwater. indeed. was little more than
selling platter. but it is said he has
filed out wonderfully during the winter,
and is now big colt of some quality.
He is the property of the Turney broth
ers. who also own waswift, another
American Derby candidate. The latter is
one of the best looking colts That appear
ed last season. He is a big chestnut, and
Is sure TO show better form this season
than he did last. Amos Turney, the train
er OF the colt, Eaid last fall that he con-
sidercd Was~ift better horse than Tillo
and 1t will be rernembered that TilIo was
good enough to win a Suburban
John E. Madden, the Kentucky turf
man. gave another evidence of his shrewd-
ness on MONDAY. when he kept Old Lady
out OF the list of entries for the Bany
race. thereby avoiding the possibility of
having the flly tipped by the turf in
formants and enabling him to get a bet,
ter price against his horse There are
few things that Madden does not know
about the racing game. Race followers
may hereafter look for number of added
starters, for this seems TO be the only
way to keep entries out of the clutches of
the racetrack touts.
Jockey Winfield. the boy who rode
Alan-a-Dale TO victory in the Kentucky
Derby, is colored rider, and is doubt
less the best colored Jockey in America.
In fact. he has not many superiors among
the white division. No colored boy since
the time of Murphy. Barnes, Hamilton.
and Sims has shown as good form as
WINFIELD.
Sims. by the way. is riding out West
and now and then lands winner. He is
not the Sims of old, however. and his brief
soiourn in England seems to have been
his undoing. He has not been In luck or
form since his return from across the
water.
