Ideas Conceived in 1868 for Improvement of
Department Surgeons Are Now Being
Worked Out-proposed Building.

In selecting the grounds Of the Naval
Museum of Hygiene and Medical School
as the site for the handsome
just unveiled in honor of DIR. Benjamin
Rush, the American Medical Association
granted Reorganization to an institution.
which, though still in it's infancy. IS
destined TO become one OF the most i'm
portant centers OF medical instruction in
the world.
Ground has been broken for the new
S125.O00 hospital which win offer the ciini-
cal work necessary 10 supplement the
courses now offered to young medical
officers of the navy. and the building
will be rushed TO completion. The plans
for the new structure were prepared by
Architect Ernest F1agg. of New York.

Plan of the Hospital.
The hospital will be built upon the
pavilion plan. with a central admins
tlation building and an east, west. and
south ward. upon the grounds Of the
ole United States Naval Observatory.
south Of E Street and west of Twenty
third Street. It will be situated on a
blum upon the west bank OF the Po-
tOinac River. commanding a panoramic
view toward the old Lee mansion at
arlington. from a point to be used as
the city approach to the proposed me-
mortal bridge.
The original plans provided for an
administration building with five wards.
but two Of the wards cannot be con-
stTucted until some time in the future.

building materials.
The style Of architecture will be Il
modified form OF the colonial treat
ment. the building to be of brick, with
light stone trimmings. slOping roof. and

Among the dependencies of the oper-
ating ward viii be IN x-ray room. an
etherizing room. and a new feature in
the form OF a recovery room. into
which patients who have been under
the influence Of anesthetics will be
taken after the operations. so as not TO
interfere with others who may at the
time be in the etherizing room.

lar. 1t happened that the stanchest ana
most aggressive champions of the nava!
medical school idea were a group Of
medical officers at the top OF the sea
list. and it was argued from this coin
cidence hat the medical schoo was
merely a dodge TO escape sea duty and
would give this ccterie perpetual i'm
munity from such service because be-
fore the termination Of their terms OF
service as professors in the proposes
school they would reach the n~on-seago-
ing age.
Attempts Aborsive.
Various attempts at vicarious educa-
ton were attempted under Surgeon Cen
eral Gunnell and defeated. In the nine
ties Surgeon General Tryon lais the
foundation for the present school by es-
tablishing the department of instruc-
ton as satellite at the naval laboratory
in New York. and the school lived until
The war with Spain. when the assign
ment Of most of the assistant surgeons
on duty left it in abandonment. Ia the
words Of Medical Director r. A. Mar
mi0n, president of the faculty of the
institution:
1T staIked among US from time to
time since then as a miserable weak
ling. without a vigorous friend and with
no distinctly visible means OF support
a mere shadow OF a cause which had
once had a substantial following"
DR.. Rixey's Idea.
Surgeon General Rixey has long real
izeG the vital weakness OF the naval
medical service. and in 1885. after the
close of the war with Spain. devised
and put into operation a plan to move
the department of instruction from the
Naval Laboratory in New York to the
Museum of Hygiene. in this city. The
name was changed to that of Naval
Medical School as carrying a stronger
suggestion Of the character Of the In
stitution. AT the same time as part Of
the plan Of organization the Naval Medi-
cal Examining Board was also moved
from New York TO Washington. The
advantage of this move was the fact
that still instructors could be obtained
In Washington from other branches Of
the Government at the National Capt.
tai. Under orders OF the Navy Depart
ment in May. 1892. the combined Naval
Museum of Hygiene and Medical School
was established. and from this impetus
a new school OF instruction has been
launched. 1t was housed In the old
buildings Of the Naval O~bservatory A
scheme of instruction was formulated
and plans completed for converting the
building into one adapted for educa-
tional purposes.

From a review of this list of the faculty
it will be seen that all of his has been
accomplished with the assignment of
but one officer from the active list of
the navy for this specific purpose. 1t Is
anticipated that during the next five
years it will be possible to assemble n
class of from t~hirty-hve TO forty mem

is most promising for furnishing the

medical officers to FIJI the corps up to

Meeting with tho third story of the main
building. Each of these two ward pavii-
ions will contain accommodations for
from twelve TO twenty-four patients.
Their arrangement will be different from
anything 80 be found in the hospitals OF
this country. Instead Of being long
structures, with beds down either side,
the wards Will be square-shaped and
the beds will be arranged around four
large ventilating pillars in each pavilion.
The ventilation features will be n de-
parture in hospital construction. At the

vilion the air will be received into the
building and drawn through canvas
screens for publication over a series Of
coils which will neat 1t to the desired

Of the navy contemplate using his same

the building in the summer, and II is
believed that by this system the air IN
the building can at all times be main
tained at a uniform temperature. The
floors will be constructed of specially
treated pine, and there will not be a

Many Schemes Proposed.

The scheme now being contaminated Is
the first Of many before the Navy De-
partment ever to materialiZe dating back
10 1868. In the first place naval officers
had widely divergent opinions as TO the
scope Of the institution. Then there
came the long fight over the location OF
the institution. A number favored An
napolis, thinking all the naval training
In the country should be centralized.
whilo other ava officers thought the
institution should be as far as possible
from Annapolis. and various cities had
their strong advocates. Finally, there
was an agitation which reached an
acute stage. which for some years de-
livered a death-blow to all pending prof.
ects. This came at the time when there
were more vacancies I'm the hospital SER
vice han could be filed. AS a result
the avy was short Of shore-duty men

FIX UP ROSEBUD Bill,
South Dakotans 10 Make II More 10
Presidents Liking.

Washington, March The
South Dakota delegation has de-
cided to make some important
changes in the Rosebud bill as a
result of the frequent conferences
with the president. The subject
of price and the manner of dispos-
ing of the Indian lands in Gregory
county, S. D.,have been in con-
troversy between the president
and the South Dakotans.
1t is probable that the bill will
be so amended as to provide that
the first two hundred selections in
the reservation shall be sold at S5
an acre, and the next two hundred
for So an acre. and the remainder
for $3.50. This, it is expected,
will prove satisfactory to the
president, so far as the price Is
concerned. 1t is understood that
a compromise will also be effected
on the manner of selling the public
lands.-St. Paul Pioneer Pres.

fully six feet tall in his stocking

tary chief Of the Minnesota Ohippe:-

Chippewa chieftein would seem to
have been carved outof cold, gray
granite or the resusctated manitled
vissage Of some ancient Pharo
king, and whose cold rigid feat
ures were never cheered or soft
ened by a smile. Yet the vener-
able chieftain is kind of heart and

LUNG DISEASES KILL

Cass Lake Chippexas Perishing From
Pneumonia and Grippe.

Cass Lake, Mimi, March, 10
Pneumonia and grippe are cpl
demic among the Cass Lake Chip
pewas of this section and a num-
Der of deaths have resulted. The
government officials are using
every means to check the mortal
ity, but have, in some cases, been
obliged to call for other doctors
to assist the regular physician, DIR
Rodwell. The Indians are pc
culiarly susceptible to pulmonary
diseases, and owing to their care
less exposure to the elements
during an unusually severe win
ter, and their lack Of proper food,
they fall ready victims to an
attack that would not be danger
to a white man.
A train of diseases is being laid
among them this winter. DIR.
Rodwell says. that will later cause
great mortality among his charges.
Many of the natives still cling to
a belief in their medicine man,
and frequently both he and the
doctor are called in to see the
patient, The medicine man per-
forms his incantations, burns
feathers under the sick mans
nose and sometimes gives decoc-
tons of herbs. all intended to
drive out the evil spirit that has
caused the trouble. Their only
effect is to excite and disturb the
patient. Yet the Indians have a
great fondncss for drugs thatnous-
cate the whites and seem to enjoy
