SCORES ALCOHOL USE
IN THE ARMY AND NAVY
Impairs Efficiency of Officers
in Military. Service,
Says Col. ,Maus.

NEW YORK, December 6.-The use OF
alcohol among officers of the army and
navy is declared the most battling OBJ
stacle to progress in a report by Col.
Mervin Maus. chief surgeon of the east
ern division of the army. The report is
made public in the Journal of the Mil
itary Service. published by the officers
at Governors Island.
DR.. Maus recommends that mo one who
uses alcoholic beverages should be ap-
pointed to important positions, civil or
military. to the command of military or
Importance and responsibility. In ref
erence to the evils of the use Of alcohol
in a military organization, he says:
1T lessons working capacity, marching
endurance, accuracy and rapldity in rife
firing, ability to command troops and
solve military problems, to navigate and
maneuver war vessels, to act as mem
bers of courts and military boards. to
properly perform administrative work, to
develop the intellect and fit one for the
higher duties and responsibilities of life.
1mpairs Usefulness.
1T causes sickness, impairs health and
usefulness, adds greatly to the nom
efficiency of both officers and men, adds
additional burden and cost to the medical
department. deprves the government of
otherwise valuable officers and enlisted
men and forces them on the retired or
pension list with corresponding increase
of government expenditures.
The higher powers of judgment and
ability to make proper comparisons and
weigh testimony is lowered under the in
fluence Of alcohol. Serious mistakes have
occurred from alcohol among officers in
command of land and sea forces

S|CKLES AND FAMILY
ALL TO Be REUNITED
Daughter Comes From Europe
and Brings Mother and
Father Together.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK December 6.-An old-fash-
Toned family reunion of Gen. Daniel E.
Sickles with his wife and two children Is
to result from the arrival from London
Of his daughter, Mrs. Dayrell Crackan-
thorpe, wife of the British diplomat. who
a year ago discontinued a suit she had
brought against the general to prevent
him from carrying out threatened acts
in the disposition of his estate.
In the old vine-colored mansion at 9Th
avenue and 9th street within a few days
Gen. Sickles, who is ninety-one, will take
back to his heart the wife from whom
he has been estranged for thirty years
and welcome the children who have been
fighting him since they emerged from
their teens
This. at least, is the prediction of the
generals son Stanton, who said last
night the family had become thoroughly
reconcled, largely through the interven-
ton of Mrs. Crackanthorpe.
Gets Money From Madrid.
Early in the day the generals wife had
received from bankers in her old home,
Madrid. money sufficient to satisfy the
judgment of $500 against the general.
She personally settled note for that
| amount held by the Bank of the Metropo-
lis, preventing the second threatened auc-
ton sale of Gen. Sickles' mementos,
scheduled for next Thursday.
'Of course the general doesn't care to
discuss this delicate subject was the
way Stanton Sickles expressed it. but
our negotiations have led to successful
conclusion and now everything is lovely.
Kind friends have assisted in straighten-
ing out family troubles-not in a financial
way, but with their counsel and advice"
Silent About Housekeeper.
Stanton was asked to identify some of
these friends. He mentioned the names
of Miss Flora Torrey Wagstaff and her
sister, Mrs. George Kemp, both we'll
known in society, who live at the Hol-
land House.
When Stanton Sickles was asked what
position in the Sickles household Miss
Wilmerding, the generals housekeeper.
would now fill as a result of the recon-
Citation, he begged to be excused from
discussing that phase of the situation.
He added that his mother had called on
the general yesterday afternoon and
that she had been received most cor
daily.

Favors Naval Reserve.

Finally. one Of the few new sugges-
tons looks to the creation of a naval re-
serve of about $1,000 men, $4,000 of
whom can be obtained from the hon
orably discharged men of the navy, the
naval militia and various mechanical
trades of civil life: the other 5000 being
available among the merchant marine.
Regarding Admiral Southerland's cam
paign in Nicaragua, Secretary Meyer
says:
The department feels gratiied over
the success attending this carefully
planned campaign. and has noted with
pleasure that the forces OF the Navy and
Marine Corps engaged in these operations
ashore. under frequently very trying con-
ditions. have by their conduct lived up to

Eight-Hour Law.

Little is said about the workings Of the
eight-hour law. although 1t Is stated that
certain difficulties which probably will
be had in its application indicate that
the law applied to all ship contracts will
cause an increase In the appropriations
necessary to obtain vessels of the same
characteristics as formerly.
Discussing the subject of powder man.
ufacture, it is stated that the French
navy is about to withdraw all of it's pow

American Navy, against which not one
accident can be charged. due to decompo-
sition or to spontaneous ignition. rec
ord probably not paralleled in any other
service.
The Secretary says little about the clos
ing of the small navy yards, though he
does state that should it be deemed wise
in the future for the fleet using the Pan
anna canal to spend half of each year on
the Pacific coast, some Of the navy yards
on the eastern coast will automatically
close from lack of work.

COUNCIL PASSES SEW
Err ORDINANCE
Creates District from Boise
to Johns and Park
TO Fourth

By an ordinance passed Monday
night, the city council declared its
intention CT creating Local Sew
erage Improvement District No 2
and constructing a sewerage sys-
TEN therein. The estimated cost
OF works is placed at Sl7,S32. OPP
portunity is given those who desire

Der % to October 81.
The boundaries of the district
are given in detail in the ordin-
ante printed on another page in

district includes all that part OF
the city from the center line of
Main street on the north TO CEN
ter line OF Fourth street on the
south between Roise avenue and

No decision has yet been reached
as to whether the disposal works

purchased or new disposal works

inch pipes from Main street to the

other pipes will be S-inch.
The total cost of s17,S32 is div
ided into two parts, as follows:

COUNTY DIVISION.

Our good peighbors at Payettt
are agitating the division of Can
yon county and the forma ion o
arother county which shall in
clude the Payette valley, the Par
ma county and the country east OF
the Payette river to he Boise
county line. In circular being
scattered broadcast, the argument
is adyarced that the reason for
the new county is that taxes will
be lessened. That seems to be
a subject to ccnjure with this
year in county division propaganda
as well as in pclirics, and of right,
tco. The circular presents many
figures in an endeavor to show thu t
ta2ation can be greatly reduced
by the creation of a new county.
Eut can it? 1t is said that
figures Go Iot lie, but We have
often noticed that liars can make
figures. The figures given may
be true. but they should not be
accepted until after a thorough in,
yestigation. They don't look rea-
sOnable to rs
The Index believes that the real
object behind this county div
isicn agitation is the ambition OF
Payette to become a county seat
town. Outside of Payette there
is no demand for a division of Can
yon county, SO far as We have been
able TO learn. However, if Payette
is urselfish in its motives for
the creation OF a new coun'y and
its only object is to reduce taxa
ton, the proper thing TO do would
be to ener into an agreement to |
eaye the location of the county |
seat to vote of the taxpayers and |
rsider the benefits and advan-
ages of a division of this coun-
y ard the formation Of a new

market for us, but we had better
experiment good deal more be-
fore we attempt to go up against
these California growers, in such
varieties. In fact, theirs are per-
feet, and we must seek and grow
only such varieties as attain per-
feoticn in our climate. Sweetwater
does it, but they laugh at Sweet
water by the side of these big
fellows. If Sweetwater grapes will
really make line Champagne we
may grow them profitably, but
their sale as fresh fruit is too
slow. Rose of Peru is good Sc
cond; but it is second to any of
the above California grown. Mia
garas are poor sellers here.

which l brought were well liked,
and sold well, especially some
Salway peaches put up by 3. C.
Bowers, and d'Anjeau pears by

OIL peaches from Yakima is 31a
cents higher on peaches than from
Emmett, and the rate from Brigham
City, Utah, is the same as from

as low as 45 cents per crate here
