INSPECTED NAVAL HOSPITALS.
Surgeon General win Make RecOm-
 mendattons for Improvements.

Washing ton, Sept. lU.-Surgeon Gem eral Riacy, of the navy. in trip around the world. acquired consider able information concerning the hos pital service for the navies for several countries. but more particularly the hospital service or the United States.
 At San Francisco ne found much that could be improved at the hospital service and he would recommend that a detention house TOT enlisted men similar to that at Newport be con- structed there. At Honolulu he found the health conditions very satisfactory. At Yokohama, the United States has large naval hospital. over which the , medical corps exercises complete ju- risdictiof. This was found in good condition and work was in progress on a new administration building. At Nagasacki and Shanghai, the sanitary condition of the hospitals, where the sick sailors were taken. were found in fair condition, but not as satisfactory as the hospital at Yokonama.
 General Riacy spent some time in
 the Philippines and not only visited the hospitals of the navy, but went through the hospitals in Manila, and especially studied the sanitary condi- tions of tnat city.
 The naval hospital at Canacao, near Cavite IS declared to be in good condi- | tion, especially from sanitary point Of view. At Olongpo, which is the proposed naval station for the Philip
 pines. but which is stiIl in a state of incompleteness, the sick quarters were found unsatisfactory and much Is needed in the way Of improvement in sanitary conditions. Tne construction | of a sewer, which is now under way, is expected to somewhat remedy the present state of affairs The hospital site at Olongapo is declared excellent.
 On his way home, General Riacy
 stopped at all points on the Sues
 route, until he reached the Meditter-
 ranean.

OrIrin off apetroIeum.v

The first mention of petroleum in America was made by Father De Ia Roche d'Allien, Frenchman, in 1929. It may be a surprise to many people to know that both the product itself and the names petrol and petroleum were familiar at least as far back as the middle of the fourteenth century In the Sloane manuscript (ffteenth cen. tury) mention Is made both of rock oil and of the correct dirivation Of the name. which is mediaeval Latin. and of course, has nothing at all to do with Peter: Petroleum oleum est factum de petra G[allieel, petroilie." C7Petroleum is an oil mada from rock-in French, petroille.") The property of drawing fire" had struck the imagination long before the work quoted in Nature" was published In 1E96 Lodge used it in metaphor; As the clay petro draweth caUf,dn ire ns so w6rS 6nd petrol for petreoD disappeared from English. and did not return until the days of the motor car industry when f. was reintroduced from the trench in the sense of refine petroleum.

 New York, Sept 10--A despatch to morning paper from Lakeville, Conn, says:
 District Attorney Jerome has decided to attend the Democratic State conVen- ton at Buffalo, September 20.
 'Res, I'm going to the Bufralo con vention," said MT. Jerome Sunday. T am not going as delegate. nor as an alternate, but as a man whose name has been mentioned as candidate Tor the Governorship.
 My chief interest lies in the plat form which the convention will put out. Too much in the past platform Of both the Republican and Democratic parties have had no significance. They have been arranged to cater to th& or that element or feeling for the sole purpose of picking up more rag-tag and bob-tail votes.
 T have no desire to impose my ideas on the conventions platform commit- tee, but I have a right to say. if the convention should desire to nominate me, whether or not l am willing to run on the platform to be adopted by the convention"

 of Abandoned Junk.
