A NEW HORROR of WAR.
Modern Naval Constructors Takes nc
Account of the wounded.

Modern Naval Constructor Takes no
Account of the Wounded.
From the London News.
A member of our staff, who has more
than once represented the Daily News
in the naval maneuvers, writes: 1t is
grave subject that the director gen.
eral of the Navy Medical Department
touched upon, a subject of which the
public know little. They hear much
of the need to keep pace with our
rivals in building fighting ships, the
relative powers of armor and projec-
tiles, the battle of the boilers, and so
on, but l do not remember that any
body before Sir Henry Norbury has
spoken, in a way to reach the popular
ear, of the fate that awaits the wound
ed and the surgeons if we unhappily
take part in a naval war. The peril
must have been met in the Chino
japanese and the Spanish American
conflicts, but if any who faced it sur
vived they said nothing, and only the
fighting was talked about. When
BLAKE and mighty Nelson fell' they
could at least take refuge in the cock
pit-a dark, gruesome place below the
water line, but one affording peace to
dying men, comparative safety from
fresh injury, chance of recovery to
those not mortally wounded, and lib
erty 20 the surgeons to do their sad
work under perfect shelter. A modern
warship offers none of these things.
AS long as it fought it would be a
| sIaughterhOuse without a redeeming
! feature.
1 have asked Continues our contrib
utor the surgeons of the vessels in
which I have sailed where they would
attend to the wounded in an action.
| They did not know, but they supposed
| the wardroom would be their station.
| The idea is horrible, for the wardroom
upper works. which, as naval officers
generally agree, would be destroyed in
| hard fight. Think of patients and
| doctors with shells bursting among
them, the hospital threatening to fall,
and flames perhaps breaking out!
But that is not all. Even if the
| Wardroom were place of safety, very
! few of the wounded could be brought
there. Here is a passage from one re-
| port of the director general: How
the medical officers were to get from
one part (of the ship to another, and
how the wounded were to be collected
when all the watertight compartments
had been closed, were problems he
| should like to see solved" They can
not be solved. The only way is to
place doctor in each fighting division
of the vessel. He would then be where
he was needed, and relatively under
shelter. The plan would mean more
surgeons, for at present even a first
class battleship, with 600 or 700 men,
| carries no more than two doctors; but
| little extra expenditure is as dust
| in the balance compared with saving
| life and relieving pain. Better than
everything else would be the cessation
of wars, thought which gains special
force from the study of this terrible
subject of wounded and surgeons in a
modern fighting ship.

haifniile track near Paris. He could
discern objects dimly and this made
him sensitive and an unusually dan
gerous colt to handle. Thomas finally
drove him a mile in PIP to a cart, as
he was always afraid to trust himself
behind Rhythmic with a sulky. Short
ly after this performance the colt be-
came frightened and ran away with
Thomas, finally turning over the cart
in Stoner Creek. Neither trainer nor
horse was injured. Thomas, however,
had enough of the black horse and
Jesse Turner, his owner, turned him
over to James Hukill to handle the
rest of the season. Hukill never ask
ed anything fast of him, making no
efforts to fit him for racing last year.
This season Turney made arrange
ments with Scott Hudson to take the
horse, which, in the meantime, had be-
come almost totally blind. He can just
distinguish between light and dark,
and notes the difference when Ian
tern is brought into his stall at night,
although he cannot locate its direction
When Hudson began to drive Rhyth-
mic this season the great horse had
little confidence in himself, and the
noted driver hooked a third line to his
riggings, with a guide strap at his
chin. He drove him only a few days
in this manner, as Rhythmic soon
learned the drivers voice, and now a
word from Hudson is law to the blind
horse. Hudson has yet to drive
Rhythmic to a break. After seeing the
great horse work the first quarter at
the Kentucky Trotting Horse Breed
ers' Association track in OBI, J. L..
Drulen, the wealthy Bardstown owner,
who has Onward Silver. Chase and
other great horses in training, offered
$40 900 for Rhythmic, but, acting on
Hudson's advice, Turney declined the
tender.
Rhythmic is natural trotter and re-
quires but little extra rigging. He
wears quarter boots and shin boots
behind, and three-ounce toe weight.
AS an indication of his remarkable
brush, 1t is only necessary to say that
Rhythmic trotted the last eighth of
a slow mile in Lexington in 0:1419, a
1:56 gait. Hudson has confidence that
Rhythmic will sweep the country with
an unbeaten record, winding up the
season by placing his name in the list
of winners of the classic Transsyl-
vania.
Being of Oakland Baron, a son of
Baron Wilkes, and out of Duchess, by
| Strathmore, Rhythmic is bred in the
same line as Moko, L. V. Hardness
famous sire of the double Futurlty
winner, Fereno. 2:10%, as Moko is by
Baron Wilkes out of Strathmore
mare. Rhythmic's dam, Duchess, now
| dead. was a good race mare, going into
the stud with a record of 2:2012. Her
foal. a year older than Rhythmic
| known as Fair Promise, is credited
with having paced a trial mile in 2:l212
| but the blind horse is all that she has
left to the turf which has shown any
high class trotting instinct.

THE BLIND TROTTEn RHYTHMIC.

Sightless Green Horse That Some
Think May Beat the Record of
CrOsccus-An Eighth of n Mile Mt a
$50 Gate.
From the Rochester Union and Adver-
tiser.
Will a blind horse yet hold the
worlds trotting record? The famous
trotting driver, Scott Hudson, says so,
and other Kentucky trainers and driv-
ers who have watched the sensational
black whirlwind, Rhythmic, in his
training this year concur in the high
opinion that the sandy-haired driver
of Audubon Boy fame has passed upon
the sightless son of Oakland Baron
Hudson declared before leaving Lex
ington that he would drive the horse
in 2:04 in a race before the close of the
season, and that in 1903, Rhythmic
would rob Crosceus of his crown There
is no more interesting history connect
ed with any horse now prominent in
the trotting world than that of the
winner of the classic VI. e. NJ in 1902

"QUAY" BEHIND THE BARS.
Thrown Into Prison, He Leers and

anu
From the Philadelphia North Ameri-
can.
Matthew Stanley Quay is at last
behind the bars.
He was put there yesterday by The
North American. his most recent crime
having been the robbery of hen
roost. Had he been the wise old bird
his name implies, he might have re-
tanned his liberty by pleading the
statute of limitations, but being mere
ly an owl he was not "cagy," and So
he was Gagged. Henceforth his address
will be the Zoo.
Matt was captured by Corney Slifer,
of Penfield, Pa. a few days ago, and
sent to The North American by ex-
press. Fearing to keep such a disrep-
utable character in the office, the edi.
tor presented him to the Zoo, and he
was taken there yesterday.
There was a furry of excitement
upon his arrival. Roars of welcome
greeted him from the wolf and fox
enclosures, but the poultry and the
lambs were seized with fright until
he had been taken past their places.
He was finally deposited in the eagle
cage, on a high perch in the center.
Various other birds of prey were
there ana Matt lfted a dropping eye
lid to survey them. The inspection
was doubtless satisfactory, for he pres
entity selected q stout vulture and a.
long-legged, dissipated-looking hawk
for his lieutenants and hooted some
Instructions to them In a few mo-
nents all the other birds were group
ed together in the rear of the cage
and the old owl was hoarsely harangu-
ing them from his perch in the center.
He was already in control of the gang.
During the afternoon the boss de-
voted his time to feathering his own
nest with feathers plucked from the
other birds. In the meantime, the usu-
al card designating his species had
been placed on his perch. 1t read
something like "Grafterius Cinchus."

Said To Have Sung Under Spell OF
Her Husbands HypnOtism.
From the Baltimore Sun.


From the Baltimore Sun.
Los Angeles, Cal. Aug. 12.!That
Miss Maud Schonfeldt of Omaha,
Neb., daughter of Henry Schonfeldt.
was hypnotized when she married
Philip Doremus Watkins, after a few
hours acquaintance on train going
to Salt Lake City, is the theory now
entertained in Los Angeles, where the
couple spent soma time.
Watkins and his young bride were
in the Hotel Arcadia, in Santa Moni-
ca, when the father of the girl in
Omaha was trying in vain to gain
definite information regarding the man
who had married his daughter under
such peculiar circumstances. The Los
Angeles Times says:
Now comes the story, vouched for
by the people about the hotel which
confirms the suspicion that Watkins
was exercising hypnotic influence over
his Omaha bride. Several times while
entertaining society at the Arcadia
Mrs. Watkins was requested to sing.
Usually she begged to be excused.
Then Watkins would urge her, and
she would begin the rendition of For
All Eternity always the same song.
She sang in voice full of genuine
sadness, which, instead of causing her
auditors to wonder-seeing that she
was bride-only made them marvel
at what they supposed her dramatic
powers.
Always, it is now remembered, she
would break down in the middle of the
song, and, weeping softly, retire from
the room. While her audience was
still mystified, Watkins would follow
and bring her back, gently enough, 1t
