CALLS HIM A BLABMOUTH.
I Special to The Sentinel

loBFtldl " lLt Dtllllutls
Milwaukee, Wis, May 28.-Jerome
A. Watrous, paymaster of the United
States army retired, criticizes Past
Commando r-in-C Chief James Darling
as "blabmouth" for his fiery
protest against the installation of a
statue of Gen. Robert r.. Lee in the
hall of fame and said Darling's style
of patriotism is the veriest sham.
Col. Watrous' statement in part
follows:
"Darling's latest advance on the
dead enemy and his dead flag, uni.
form and Confederacy recalls Senator
James Gordon's recent remark about
a class in the South that is still car
rying on the war of the rebellion. The
old senator, himself IA gallant Confed-
crate soldier, called the rampant
fighting class that hops in the lime
light on the slightest provocation
'blabmouths,' adding that they had a
small part in the war and now have
little influence. Darling's fresh out
break is proof that we have at least
one of Senator Gordon's class of
'blabmouths' ut the North. Darling's
style of patriotism Is the veriest
sham"

HEALTH BOARD WANTS
ATCHERLEY'S SECRET
He Is Refused Permission to
Practice Among Lepers

To fully explain his refusal TO allow
Dr. John Atcherley TO practice among
the lepers in the city isolation hospital,
DR.. George L Eaton, president of the
board Of health, has addressed n letter
10 the San Francisco county medical
society, through its president, DR.. LanG
ley Porter. This society has appointed
a committee TO inquire into the incl
oent, as a result of the agitation OF
Miss Sarah Frye, who has declared that
Doctor Atcherley was curing the lepers,
and that his treatment met with their
approval
As Atcherley is not licensed to prac-
ticed in California, however, and as he
has refused to divulge the method of
treatment he employed, Doctor Eaton
states in his letter that he could not
allow the doctor to continue. AS presi-
dent Of the health board Eaton felt
that he should know what methods
were being used in treating all wards
of the city.
Genuine discoverers of remedies and
cures DO not seek TO mystify or outwit
science Doctor Eaton declares They
are glad indeed TO give the benefit Of
their knowledge to their fellow men,

deserves TO arise above the provisions

meekly asking for signed passes that
they might enter the library or other
rooms.
Principal Herrscher gave instruc-
tions to his Office staff. The clerical
work usually done by the students
was turned over to Principal Murphy
or some of the regular teachers. In
the classrooms the young girl and boy
pedagogues maintained absolute order
and put the students through the
strict PAGES of work.
Ever since the fire Principal Muir
ply has been experimenting with self
government in the Commercial school.
The system was first begun with the
organization of the different classes
and assuming of portion Of the dis
cipline by the students Gradually the
scheme was enlarged until it was de-
cided TO set aside, with the permission
of the board of education, one day of
each term when the students would
instruct the classes and govern the
school. Principal Murphy stated that
the system was proving most success
full.
