was called into consultation in the case
of General Longstreet by DR.. Ham, OF
Gainesville. was seen Thursday after his
return to the city by a representative OF
The Constitution and asked In regard to
the condition of the general.
DR. Crawford stated that he did not
think General Longstreet was in pre-
carious condition. and that if he could
stand the operation in having the left eye
removed he would pull through his pres
ent illness without trouble. DR.. CraW-
ford stated further that In his opinion
General Longstreet would be able to un-
dergo the operation, as he was man OF
vigorous frame and with pulse which In
dicated his heart was beating with reg
ularity and with volume.
General Longstreet is suffering win

been thus affected for six or seven years
but up to last April the affection had not
gone to the eye ball. stated DR.. Craw

Now, however, the eye ball has burs
and the contents are running out. AS t
whether this is due TO the disease Which
has affected the ball or to the Xral
treatment which has been applied to thu

true however, 1t is an unusual thing TO
this disease to spread as rapidly as i
would have had to do In order to affec

KING EDWARD WELCOMES
YANKEE NAVAL OFFICERS

London, July 9-Informaly Welcoming
the American naval officers to England
tonight King Edward took occasion to
make an emphatic declaration In favor of
closer relations between the United States
and Great Britain. His ma iesty did not
speak of an alliance or even of an under
standing, but the impression was clear
from his remarks that he desired that
the two nations move together in the
interests of the peace Of the world. Some
of the kings ministers also took ad-
vantage of the occasion to Impress on
the American officers their cordial ap
prevail of the Monroe doctrine and their
desire that it be supported by American
influence in a way which would place it
above all criticism.
The royal welcome was extended to the
American officers at buckingham palace,
where dinner was given in their honor
by King Edward. The table was decor
ated by Marechal Neil roses and golden
plate from Windsor. The king com
manded the most distinguished officers
of the empire to attend and thirtE-siX
euests were present On the kings right
sat Ambassador Choate and on his left
Rear Admiral Cotton. Among the others
present were the prince of Wales, Colonial
Secretary Chamberlain Premier Bafour
and Sir Michael Herbert

The king was dressed in the uniform
of an admiral of the British fleet. On
the conclusion of the dinner his majesty.
in a tactful speech, expressed gratitca-
ton at the acceptance of his invitation
and cordially welcomed Rear Admiral

Of the whole British people, and he pro-
posed a toast to President Roosevelt.

nal treatment is an endless, hopeless
task. Some simple wash or ointment
is often beneficial when the skin is
much infaned or itches, but you can't
depend upon local remedies for per1na-

throwing off impurities which irritate
and clog the glands and pores of
the skin, and as long as the blood re-

THE YALE QUARTERBACK.

The presence in the city Of DR. L.
Il. Rockwell. rresiang elder in this
district for the Methodist church, re-
calls an appropriate story in coanec-
lion with his son Foster Rockwell, who
has gained wide distinction as foot
ball player.
Young Rockwell was quarterback for
Yale in the recent struggle with Har-
ward and to him as much. perhaps,
as to any other one man is ascrihed
Yale,s victory. In making up an All
American eleven this year, the foot
ball experts agree in naming him as
the champion quarterback Of the coun-
try. They call him great field gen
eral. remarkable for his grasp of the
details OF the game, and his ability 10
take advantage of the changes in the
situation. In his position a man must
have the courage of his convictions.
That the young man has 1.-THE is only

in a manaer worthy of record. The
story is toid in the Classmate.
some one gave the Yale champions
banquet when the season was ended
and every game had been won. Every
man was in his chair except the fresh
man quarter. He was sent for and
brought reluctantly from his college
room. Evidently he didn't expect to
enjoy that dinner, but the older boys
soon had his legs under the table.
There were songs, and cheers. and stor-
les. and then the toasts. When the
toast was ITO Good Old Yale." some
one noticed that the quarterback did
ntH raise the glass TO his lips. IL was
champagne and he was a freshman.
Yale freshmen are expected to do what
upper classmen tell them to do. But
this "ail-American quarter" had as
good grit in that banquet hall as he
had on the Princeton gridiron, and he
said, NO, / have never tasted wine
in my life and l won't begin now"
There's football hero worth having.
Small wonder that young Rockwelfs
father is prouder of his boys record at
the feast than on the field. At the
table he showed character-and charac-
