Wounded at Melilla
Dying Without Doctors
SAN SEBASTIAN, Spain, via Frontier.
Aug. Further particulars received here
regarding the situation at Melilla say the
arrangements for caring for the wounded
are deplorable. There are but few doc
tors on themscene. and medicines, surgi-
cal instruments and other appliances are
almost entirely lacking. During the
fighting OF July q the stan of General
Marina, the commander OF the Spanish
forces, was decimated.
Some companies lost half their strength
and three-quarters Of their officers.
All the reports speak of the bravery OF
the men and officers, but dwell upon the
stupidity. OF the antiquated tactics en-
ployed. and the Reorganization Of the
commissariat.

Colonel Harrington was held in high
personal esteem by every officer and
man of the Guard with whom he came
in contact during his long connection

natural desire to be of assistance made
ii easy for a member of the Guard to
approach him, and he was unfailing in
his patience to make all things clear to

added rare personal charm which en-

timately and he will always be held
in warm regard by those who had the

Some of the boys up at the hose
house on Bridge street have discov-
cred a cure for runaway dogs which
while it may be a little harsh is said
to do the business 1t is said that the
discovery was brought about because
of the fact that a young man living
on Summer street had a pup which
was infected with the runaway habit.
Not long ago the pup disappeared and
the young man promptly advertised
in the Lost column of the Journal.
1t so happened however that the dog
was rot badly '.lost." for he had only
gone down to the hose house to play
with the dogs that belong there. and
was soon returned to his master.
From subsequent developments it
seems that the first trip to the hose
house bred a spirit of unrest within
the pup for it was followed by others
until the owner requested the boys at
the hose house to drive him home
whenever he made his appearance,
which they did. This method was
partially effective at first but the pup
soon came to consider the rushes
made in his direction huge joke and
evidently thought the boys We're play
