from the medical faculty on the. CUB
tect:
The appearance of pink-eye among
the students OF the University warns
us that we must take special precau-
lions to prevent this disease from
spreading. During the last epidemic
large proportion OF students in their
studies were attributable largely to
pink-eye and it's after effects. The
Medical Faculty, therefore, issues this
notice, and appeals to the students,
boarding house keepers, and others to
aid In stamping out pink-eye from
among us.
''Pink-eye Is a prsventable disease
produced by germs which attack the
mucous membranes Of the eyes When
the germs gain foothold they grow
and multiply, while the eyes become
red and watery. and secretions form
the patient IL asleep. Frequently the
patient feels as IL he has dust in his
eyes. Bright lights are unusually dis
agreeable to patients with pink-eye,
while reading, drawing. and similar use
of the eyes IL painful and injurious.
The disease usually lasts one or two
, weeks, but the eyes do not recover
their strength for a much longer time,
and the beginning of more serious eye
trouble Is often traceable to an at

SLOW PROGRESS IN

FACE AS QUICKLY AS NAVY
DEPARTMENT PROMISED.

HAVANA, Jan. 20.-The prediction
Of the War Department that the
wreck of the battleship Maine would
be exposed to public view by Febru-
airy TO-" the thirteenth anniversary OF
her destruction, is not to be fulfilled.
Engineering experts are to-day agreed
that the promise Is at least six weeks
ahead OF the performance.
Secretary of War Dickinson's re-
quest for an additional appropriation
to carry on the work has called the
attention OF Americany in this city to
the slow progress that has been made
ana the evident unfamiliarity of the
department with such work. The
greatest difficulty has been in assem- :
bling competent force of workmen,
and especially skilled class, to build
the huge caissons that ase TO form the
walls OF the cofferdam that ID to sur
round the wreck Experts who have
watched this work say that there will
be great difficulty in Joining the cir
cular caissons, as none OF the outer
cases OF the caissons formed by the
steel piling are absolutely perpendic-
ular.
This piiing is of fiat slabs of steel,
with interlocking joints on the edges.
They are driven thirty-five feet into

only two feet above the surface of the
water. This is made practicable by
the light tide, These are to be join
ed by specially formed piling. an en-
cheering feat that 10 viewed with
skepticism by many.
After 1t was decided that army en-
gineers were to do the work, those
in charge began casting around for
barges. pile drivers, dredges. pumps
and other paraphernalia. Two or
three barges and derrick scows were
obtained In Havana. but they had 10
be remodeled before being suitable.
From Guantanamo to Pensacola the
government searched for equipment
all OF which had to undergo extensive
repairs. 1t took weeks to assemble
the 'outft" when it was at first an
nounced that 1t could be done in as
many days

was called to Washington to appear
before the house appropriation COM
mittee. Ferguson IL also the pay
master, and during his absence such
confusion arose in the payment Of the
men that a number OF them quit and
others were discharged for yoicing
their sentiments too vigorously. As to
when the wreck Will be raised depends
on how the caissons hold out,
and whether the cofferdam will be
weakened by the force Of water.

The simplest number, the Meyer

The audience. which filled the place.
applauded appropriately.
Miss Reams was assisted by Miss
Marie Leahy. As Miss Leahy had
another engagement she did not fol-
low the printed program but first
read three Poe selections and a shor.
Tennyson poem. Miss Leahy possesses
silver tones and is proud OF them. No
doubt this il why she chose a stanza
from the THE Bells" and The Bugie
