FORMER BROOKLYN MAN '-.'
 RELIEVED FROM DUTY.
Rear Admiral C. F. Pond Has Been in
 Poor Health for Some Time Past.

There is interest in the announce ment made in Washington that Rear Admiral C. F. Pond, comma nding the cruiser squadron of the Atlantic fleet in control of the situation in Haiti and San Domingo, has been relieved from duty because of lii health, and will be replaced by Captain H. $. Knapp of the general board, for both officers are Connecticut men, the latter being native of Hartford. IIe was graduated from the Hartford public high school in 1874 and was appointed to the United States navay academy by Gen. eral Joseph R. Hawley and is now 50 years old. He is tie son of Frederic Knapp of No. 149 Sigourney street. He is next in line for rear admiral and will be the first Connecticut man to reach this rank since Rear Admiral F. M. Bunce. The first war vessel Cap tain Knapp commanded was the Ten nessee. It was on sthis ship that he took President William H. Taft to the Panama canal in 1910.
 Native of Brooklyn.
 Rear Admiral Charles Fremont Pond was born in Brooklyn, Conn.,, Oct. 26, 1856, the son of Enoch Pond and Sarah Ann Utley Pond. He was educated in the district school in Brooklyn. When 16 years old he was appointed to the United States naval academy through competitive examination. The late Congressman John T. Wait of Ncr- wich made the appointment. Admiral Pond is an expert mathematician and Photographer and while an ensign he had charge of the time ball and ob> servation station at the Mare Island navy yard. He gained considerable reputation among naval men by mal- ing 8 complete survey of the coast of California. He made a survey of the Midway Islands aud his recommends tions were used by the government when the cable to the Philippines was laid. He has commanded the cruiser Buffalo, the batt1eship Oregon and sev- era1 other vessels. He is considered one of the most competent and efficient men in the service.
 Rear Admiral Pond was deeply af- fected last August when the arnnored cruiser Memphis one of tho vessels of his squadron, was driven ashore in a sudden tropical storm at San Domingo City and 30 bluejackets lost their lives. His nerves suffered from the shock and he has been in poor health ever since the loss of the Memphis,

FIRST BAPTIST PASTOR
 AT ARMS PLANT.
Delivered Talk on Taking Account of
 Stock at Noon on Thursday.

Rev George H. :Strorse. pastor of the First Baptist church, spoke at the Y. M. c. A. monday shop meeting held at the Crescent Arms company cn his topic Taking Account of Stock, and
 he said in part:
 What is your attitude on the great
 moral questions of the day; on winch
 side are you throwing your influence? |?
 There are several great rivers in the
 great blessing wherever they flow.
 There are two great rivers in the
 moral world. One is the rirer of good and the other is the river of evil, and the question is so which of these rivers are you contributing? The trouble with many men today is that they do not stop long enough to think. Most Of tie thinking is on the surface and, therefore. men are not contributing to the good as much as they should. It is we'll for us to re- member that there will come a day o1 l reckoning and every man must face that test. I read of baseball game where the score was even and a mar came to the bat and hit the ball hard l and it sped through the air and wen I over the fence, and half of the spec. 1 tators went wild with joy, thinking l their side had won the gaue, but tht umpire followed the bah with his kee1
 eye and called out ""four' and the bat, l ter came back.
 l Friends, :ust as surely as there f I an umpire in baseball game, tl1er I is a moral umpire wonder in heavol l who will decide whether we have play ed the game fair or foul, and you d. 1 we'll to take heed what you are doinI in the great game of life.

in London everything was different.
 To France it meant a great struggle and the people on the streets in Paris
 were saying. Do you think England
 is going to stand with us?" The small
 expedition that England first sent out
 was really the great moral that help.
 ed France. The knowledge that Eng
 land was standing by, py sending that
 little force gave France courage. l
 became very tired of what I saw in
 England so I started for Northern
 France to see what was going on.
 went with a letter of reference to an
 English nurse who was doing hospi-
 tai work. Finding her soon I entered
 the Marantine hospital. The hospi-
 tai was formerly a depot which had
 titioned off and had operating and
 sterilizing rooms. The lower portion
 of. the depot was stoill in use. Wounded
 were taken from the train into the
 hospital upstairs. As this was my first hospital experience the odor, sights, etc, took me off my feet. The thing I remember as I approached bed was the man who was in it who pulled the ! sheet over his head as I approached. suppose the man tried to save us from the terror of secrng his facial wounds. I managed to get through that experience we'll and after that I went on a hospital ship which was later torpedoed, The appearance and organization of the ship was wonder 1 full Shortly after I went into the first 1 French hospital and I found things | quite different. The organization of other and the big military hospitals are not especially admired by the | French. I went to Calais at the time 1 the Germans were near and I went into one hospital where 300 were wounded :! as a result of railroad accident ! y1,;1 F, i,,t t1a papers. I was at a hospital when sol ] diers Were brought in with frozen 1 feet and many of them had to have l their feet amputated. The French and English went out into the trench 1 es where there was freezing water | with tight boots on which stopped 1 the circulation while on the other hand ] the Russians wore loosely fitting sboots l I also went into a Japanese hospita | where they used many American 1 methods and while there met a nurse who served in the Japan-Russian war l went about doing what I could ana 1 then finally entered the American Am. 1 bu1ance hospital Miss Lynch tolt l of the routine of the hospital and O, l her first day at this hospital. Sht 1 also told of men who were brough 1 directly to this hospital from the bat. 1 tlefield. She told of one instance wher about 750 wounded soldiers came tt | the institution and of the un/'ins | work which the nurses were forced tt l do and she termed it terrible strug ] gle of life and death and the worl l was hard.
 1 Miss Dowd, the head nurse at tn, l Rackus hospital told of the needs O the institution in regards to linen, etc l Superintend<nt F. Leon Hutchins ex
 l psaine6 the tremendous expense O
 the hospital and urged the need o
 tbetter quarters for the nurses whicl
 at the present time are quite made
 quate. He also told of the urgen need of new X-ray machine.
