by wireless via Louisburs. y. s.

London, Nov. 13.-Dorchester House,
the residence of the late Whitelaw Reid
when American Ambassador in Lon
don, is now being used as a military
hospital. II must be the most luxuri
Gus of its kind in existence. Sir
George Holford has given it up to
wounded officers, eighteen of whom are
billeted in the bedrooms overlooking
Hyde Park.
Downstairs, on the first floor, the
famous ballroom is being turned into
q sitting room for convalescents, and
other highly decorated apartments
where ball suppers and big receptions
were held are now filled with bed
screens and big medicine tables, and
will become dormitories for the wound
ed who will be sent there, after a few
days preliminary treatment at a
nursing home further down Park
Lane, attended by Sir Alfred Frpp.
The nurse in charge at Dorchester
House is Miss Muriel Wilson. The
masterpieces of Dorchester House, in
Guiding one or more Velasquez, have
been taken down 10 the cellar, but the
Alfred Stevens decorations are still
there.
York House, Devonshlre House,
Montagu House and Harrington House
are few of many great London man
sions now given over for the service
OF the war. A stranger instance still
Of the transformations that are hap
pening in West London is that the
huge island of houses at the corner
of Brompton Road, opposite South
Kensington Museum, have been re-
paired and occupied as headquarters
of some Of the London regiments. 1t
had lain shut up, dirty and decaying,
for at least ten years.
