DOCTRINE OF THE ANTI.


After Many Years, or Mans Inhuman-
lty to Man BY M. E. Woodling. M. D.
The Abbey Press. publishers, London.
New York and Montreal
In order to give the world his ideas of
matters in general. DR.. Woodling has set
forth in this volume his own opinions in
the form of conversations with another
medical man. judge and a Rev. Some
BODY, all three Of the latter being used as
questcners to draw out from the writer
what he thinks. And he certainly thinks
He is an anti-everything; "agin the gov
ernment," against Christianity, against
trusts, against the Republican party, and
opposed to all things in general. It
must not be supposed. however. that this
DOCK is a TRADE; far from it; the writer
tells much truth, and no one who despises
hypocrisy and greed can altogether dis
agree with him. At times he is exceed
lngly blasphemous, often unreasonable
and sometimes illogical Because he sees
so much sin and disease, he takes if for
granted that Christianity has failed. Be
cause the government has failed in some
Instances. he rails at the country and
the powers that be. His book will be a
source of grief to the EXTREMIST of the
temperance advocates and to the prohib-
ltlonStS. whom he plainly calls lunatics
But it is fairly we'll written and unfor-
tunately tells too many truths IT is
very doubtful whether it does much good.

of the merchant marine than was ac-
cOmplished by similar branches of all
foreign governments combined. He
began the collection of information
from the logs of men of-war and mer-
chant vessels for the purpose of con-
structing nautical charts to show the
prevailing winds and currents, their
limits and characteristics, and, in gen.
eral, the physical features of the
ocean and all facts of interest or value
to the maritime community. This has
resulted in the issue of wind and cur
rent charts, track charts, trade-wind
charts, whale-feeding ground charts,
thermal charts, storm and rain charts
and eight large volumes of sailing di-
rections, all of which were concerned
with the safe navigation of the known
waters of the globe.
ION the breaking out of the Civil
war. Maury cast his fortunes with the
South, and his practical labors for the
navy and merchant marine ceased"
Civil War Recalled.
Facts are constantly coming out in
congressional procedure showing the
terrible proportions of such a war as
that between the North and South.
Mr.. Foraker has introduced a bill for
marking the graves of Confederates
who died in federal prisons and mill
tary hospitals, and who were buried
near their places of confinement.
These men numbered about 10000.
Northerners hear much of Libby pris-
on and AndersonviIle, but little of the
long line of prisons on this side of the
conflict The list of United States
prisons used to confine Confederate
prisoners of war includes those of
Alton, Rock Island and Camp Butler,
in Illinois: Camp Chase, Johnson's ISL
and, Ohio; Camp Morton, Ind; Elmira.
N. Y; Fort Delaware, Del; Fort
Henry and Fort Lookout, Md. Louis
Vile, KY; Fort Lafayette and Hart
Island, New York harbor; Newport
News, Va; New Orleans, La; Old
Capitol prison, Washington; st. Louis,
Mo-; Ship Island, Miss, and Fort War
rem, Boston harbor, Mass.
There are known to be in the ma
tional cemeteries $500 Confederate
dead. More than two thirds of the
Confederate prison dead are thus
buried in other places and presumably
not under government control.
The friction between the federal and
Confederate governments regarding
the cartels of exchange during the
war unhappiiy resulted in the accu-
mutation of prisoners on both sides,
with consequent congestion, and an
increased death rate.

articles as he deemed necessary. This,
on receiving approval, was sent to the
navy agent at the port where the YES

foreign governments or from a few
private dealers in this country. These
purchases were afterWard supple

at the end of the cruise, when the
vessel was put out of commission, her

This is one of several books written by

Hidden Mamma" is devoted to the old,
