trial America.

Inspector Peter Ashe Of the Connrc-
ticut Co., at New London returned

They are located in handsome resi-
three acres that are laid out in an at !.
tractive way in flower gardens and
hedges. Their home IN at Chanquinoia
Junction.
On his way down Mr.. Asfe made his
first stop at Belize, Honduras, and
with a party OF seven left the steamer
there to get a view OF the country. The
second stop was at Puerto Barroe,
Guatemala On the trip down Mr..
Ashe went on one side of the island
and returning came along the other
coast
At BOGUS Del Tarro he saw cele-
bration of Queen Victoria's birthday,
which occupied a week. The steamer
Ashe visited Blue Hall, a cave 30 feet
deep. He met a party OF Hindus in

much interested In the culture of ba-
nanas and cocoanuts. On the return

The graduation exercises Of the VIII
liam w. Backus hospital training
school for nurses was held in the
parlors of the Osgood Memorial on
Tuesday evening.
graduating class this year. The ex-
ercises opened with music by the
Hammond club and prayer by the
Rev. Nelson Poe Carey. Principal
Henry A. Tirrell presided and intro
duced the speaker, DR.. w. Gilman
Thompson of New York who gave
the address of the evening. In 1885,
DR.. Thompson published his book on
training schools for nurses. There
were then only % schools Of this kind.
The earliest beginning was made at
the close of the eighteenth century,
when several lectures on the subject
were delivered. Later a few sister
hoods and societies sent out trained
deaconesses but the nurses ranks were
usually recruited from housemaids or
convalescents. The first real training
school was opened in London in 1860
by Florence Nightingale. The first
one in the nited States was opened in
Philadelphia in 1863.
The next two were the New Eng
land in Boston and Bellevue in New
York in 1872. There were many OBJ
jections which time has entirely dis
PEELED and rendered invalid. They
have grown in numbers until in 1908
there were 935 training schools with
$500 graduates There Is an army Of
$4,000 nurses in actual service today.
Viewing this army in its wide extent
of need and service shows that ten
million dollars are spent yearly in
housing them. Two new institutions
in Nav York have cost over a million
and the cost of maintenance is great
also. But they pay. This army has
opportunity for a wide educational
field and may be mn influences of much

calling, which is the relief of man

have learned--that correct environ

and that drugs are not to be given in

ton days and the closing of the

made even more effective by the APP
ly by Miss Garnsey during the entire
time of the six recitations.
The second part OF the programme
introduced a short French play by
Moliere, which was given with great
success. The malSeups and costumes
were denghtful. and the girls taxing
part entered so thoroughly into the
spirit of the play and carried out their
parts so well that the audience were
generous in their praise. and Madem-
oissile, their teacher, has reason to be
congratulated The play was Les Pre-
cienses Ridlcules. Miss Simons and

English Poet Is
Undoubtedly
Insane

R1EW YORK, Dec. 23.-Robinson
IN Watson in statement tel
egraphed to New York from
Montreal today, reiterates that his
brother, William Watson the English
poet, now in Havana, is insane, al
though the poets wife who is with
him is unaware of her husbands con-
dition.
Mrs. Watson cabled from Havana
that Robinson Watson's message to
the world Is a wicked attempt to ruin
her husband.
The brother replies today as fol-
lows:
at is not surprising that Mrs. Wat
son has cabled an angry message.
There will probably be worse to
come. and still worse, until she fully
apprehends the whole truth. A sad
feature of the situation is that she
has been ignorant of the events of
1908.
When the long statement about the
Asquiths compelled me to recognize
clearly what others were beginning
to perceive, l went to New York and
finding my worst fears confirmed, en-
deavored for four consecutive days to
get an opportunity of speaking alone
with Mrs. Watson But no such op-
portunity could be obtained
