no circumstances would the proposed amend

G. Ebert of Detroit is now queen
of a little island in the Pacific and
supremely happy in the company
of her husband, a United States
marine surgeon, who, with her and
their little baby, are the only
white inhabitants of the island of
Cauit.
Cauit is a little speck of land,
two miles south of Cebu, town
in the southern Philippines. Cauit
is the site of marine hospital, of
which DR.. Ebert has charge. His
mission is to care for Uncle Sans
soldiers and sailors.
For months now Mrs. Ebert has
seen no white woman save when
she looked into her mirror. She is
blissful in the extreme, however,
for when she was married her
honeymoon was interrupted while
her husband was chased to New
Orleans to fight cholera. A few
months later he was sent to the
Behring sea, later to Seattle and it
was only when the present Cauit
post came that they were enabled
to enjoy uninterrupted home life
among the palm trees and cocoa
nuts.

man. etc, there were IA trials and
IL convictions, from the time the
fleet left Hampton Roads to it's
arrival at Gibraltar.
The excellent conduct of the en-
listed men has been a marvel at
the navy department. While the
teaching of the navy always has
been for the moral uplift and gen.
eral world education of the blue
jacket, the high standard he main
tanned on this cruise is regarded
as principally due to the fatherly
interest in his boys" of Admiral
Evans on the first leg of the trip.
Precisely how much greater was
the cost of maintaining the fleet
on this cruise than it would have
been under normal cruising condi-
tons in Atlantic home waters is
difficult to estimate. The princi-
pal item of increased cost was
that of coal consumption. This in
crease, as nearly as Admiral
Cowles, chief of equipment, is able
to estimate it. will amount in all
to about $1,300.0O0. Since the
usual appropriation of $5,00O,O 900
for all equipment purposes suffi-
GENTLY meets the requirements, it
was necessary for a deficiency ap-
preparation Of $1,300,OOO to be
voted by congress for the addition
al coal bill. Much of this extra
cost was in transporting the coal,
which had to be shipped from the
Atlantic coast to the various ports
around South America, and to
Honolulu, Australia, Manila, Japan
and Gibraltar. Some native coal
at points on the cruise was used,
but none was so good as the Amer
lean product. Approximately,
365,000 tons were consumed on the
entire cruise, the total cost of
which was about $2,6O0,0O0.
