After his recovery he became executive
officer of the United States general hos
pital at Portsmouth Grove. r. l.. later
joined Gen. Banks expedition, and the
end of the war found him in charge OF
the United States general hospital at
Cleveland. Ohio. After that he took part
III several Indian campaigns, and was
breveted lieutenant general after most
gallant service while under fire at Clear
water, Idaho.
Since then he has been assigned to
numerous important posts. particularly
when cholera and yellow fever epidemics
were raging, and in 1879 he was member
of the Havana yellow fever commission.
His services were further recognized in
1888, when he was appointed surgeon gen.
eral. United States Army. and this posi-
ton he held until 1902, when he was re;
tired for age.
Contributions to Medical Science.
Gen. Stcrnberg's contributors to medi-
cal science have been both numerous and
important. He has been for many years
q recognized authority on yellow fever.
and his Investigations of this disease
helped materially in stamping it out in
the southern states. where in the past
generation it appeared almost regularly
epidemic dreaded by all and de-
handing thousands of victims. Gen.
Sternberg himself contracted yellow fever
in 1919.
Many are the honorary degrees and
memberships which were bestowed on
Gen. Sternperg by universities and So
cieties. His studies in malaria. typhoid
reruhlished in foreign countries and are
regarded standard references for the
medical student.
An important part was played by Gen.
Sternherg when. in 1850, he pointed out
to Maj. Reed chairman of the yellow
o g. .nrD m ho1
organized, that it would be found that
the fever is transmitted by an inter-
mediate carrier. This led to the dis
covery by Maj Reed that certain mos
quite is this carrier and that by prop
crly screening the victims of yellow fever
a threatening epidemic can be subdued
II Il community.
Master of Micro-Photography.
Gen. Sternberg is said to be a master
in the making of micro photographs. many
of which by his own hand appeared in
the books on bacteriology which he pub
iished. His activities have been so mani
fold and SO beneficial that it is beyond
the compass of a newspaper sketch to
do justice to them.
AT present he is president of the Wash
ngton Sanitary Improvement Company.
Of the Washington Sanitary Housing
Company and of the Citizens Relief AS

mini chairman OF the Presidents homes
commission. the object of which is the

established the Starnlount Sanatorium for

the committee for prevention of tuber

WAR AND HUGE DEBTS

That we ought to pay our war debt
before putting vast sums i'll new war
establishments is the gist of Justice
Brewers recent argument before the
arbitration and peace conference
How is it that we have not, he asked,
when peace came, as promptly as
possible paid our debts?" To quote
further:
AT the close of our civil war we
owed about $1,000 100000. In the
twenty-five or thirty years following
that weIpaid two-thirGs of that debt.
Since than, although during the last
ten years we have had unexampled
prosperity, we have not paid q dollar,
and we owe today. as we did at the end
of the Spanish war, $1,000, 100000
I'm the last ten years the total ap-
preparations for the army were $685.
100000. Of course omit giving any
thing but round figures. This is ex-
elusive of pensions. For the prior ten
years the appropriations were only
$245, 100000. During the last ten years
he appropriations for the navy were
1907, 0OO,O 900; the ten years prior, 1852,
100000 or an excess in the appropria-
ions for the army and navy during
he last ten years over the prior ten
years of III, l19, 100000 That is why
We have not paid the national debt"
Other uses to which the Surplus
Excess of our naval and military ex-
penditure for the last ten years" might
have been applied for the good of the
nation, the Justice thinks, are the recla-
nation of arid lands and the c0nstruc.
ton of inland waterways. Prepare
ton for war indicates a craving for war;
he contends. land we cannot be craving

SOMEBODY WILL BE FOOLED

The following editorial is by Henry
Watterson and printed in the Louisville
Courier-JOurnal:
As the republicans frame the situa-
ton somebody is to be fooled nightly.
Who is it likelicst to be, Rockefeller
and company, who will provide the
SlnewS OF war, or the masses of the
people, who arc expected to provide the
votes? That is the sum of it, whichever
way we take it, or consider it.
We are promised IL change of policies.
Of which policies policies of the
republican president, or the policies of
the republican congress? The rcpubli-
c.ln party can not be true to the one
without repudiating the other 1t can
not at one and the same time keep step
with Roosevelt the radical, and Cannon
the standpatter; with tariff reform and
tie gospel of protection; with the trusts
OF the east and the farmers of the west:
with the people and the system. In one
word, republicanisn for all it's arts and
resources can not serve both God and
Manmon
When the republican congress refused
to enact law of publicity, under whose
operation blackmail could no longer be
levied upon any interest by the mana
gers of either organization, it pro-
claimed the purpose of the republicans
to lay tribute upon the manufacturers
again to sell the foreign embassies to
the millionaire and promises of no real
interference to the trust magnates, as n
return for the means of corrupting the
ballot box and buying the election.
Is 1t possible that they look for a
hidden letter of Mr.. Taft prematurely
exploded, to make denial of this? Is it

ical gardens, London. The most re.
markatle thing In connection with the
bellbird Is its powerful voice; it ut.
ters clear, metallic note which can
be heard at distance of three miles
Its noise is like that produced by q
blacksmith striking his anvil. Some
times 1t repeats It's notes In quick
succession, sometimes at fairly long
Intervals. There is no mistake about
the voice of this bird; 1t Is loud aud
piercing, and would be heard above
the din produced by every inmate of
the ZOO raising it's voice at once. Tx.
cept for a space of naked skin on the
throat and around the eyes, which,
during the breeding season, Is of a
green color, this bird is pure white.
The contrast between the sexes in the
bellbirds, Of which two species have
been exhibited in the menagerie, is
extreme. For while the male ia pure
white, the female is brownish green.

points out that white is very rare

Icy, where the pasturage was rich and
luXuriant, were all diseased, most Of
them unfit for human food, and many
lying dead on the fields. They had
not to struggle for life, their short
lie was miserable, and their death
early; they wanted the sweet uses Of

LAYING OF CORNER STONE
OF ST. JOSEPH'S ABBEY

The laying of the corner stone of the ST. Jo-
sephs Abbey and College, Wednesday, October Z,
which is to take the place of the former structure
destroyed by fire in the closing days of November,
1907, was witnessed by large concourse of visiting
clergymen and friends of the Benedctine Fathers
from the surrounding country and from New Orleans.
The brickwork, which has passed the third story,
and the steel frame of the structure lavishly
decorated for the OCCASION and no pains were spared
by the Ri. Rev Abbot and his assistants to make the
day very pleasant one.
Blessed by most beautiful day, the imposing
ceremonies of the laying of the corner stone were
conducted by his Grace, the Most Reverend Arch
bishop J. H. Blenk, of New Orleans. assisted by
Bishop Hesln, of Natchez, and Bishop Allen of Mo
bile, the Rev. Abbot Paul, o. S. B., and visiting
priests After this ceremony addresses were made
by Judge McGloin of New Orleans, DIR. E. F. Kohnke,
of Covington, followed by his Grace the Archbishop
the Rt. Rev. Abbot, and Bishops.
The erection of such splendid edice in our midst
dedicated to the education of YOUTH means much to
this parish and particularly to next best neigh
Dor, the town of Ramsay. In the North and West,
where the Benedctne Fathers have settled and built
abbeys and colleges, towns of some pretention have
sprung up in their immediate neighborhoods In Con-
cepcion, Mo-, and st. Mienrad, Ind., progressive
towns have sprung up and are inhabited by most
progressive and thrifty people
At the conclusion of the ceremonies the Archbishop,
Bishops, and visiting priests guests at NEST
sumptuous dinner, while the numerous visitors were
served with dainty refreshments by committee of
ladies' from Ramsay and Covington
The Farmer wishes to congratulate the Benedictine
Fathers for the splendid work they have under way
and fc the success which their perseverance merits
