The Governor assured the Brooklyn leaders the could count on his loyalty and they submitted a number of names for places which had been vacant for ine time. i The First Shock. The first Job the Brooklyn Republi cans tried to land was that of chairman of the Slate Hospital Commission. This place was held by the late. William H. Friday and It was presumed another Brookljnlte would be named in his place. When names wero sent to Oov. Whitman with the Brooklyn Indorse ment the Kings leaders received their first shock on being informed this par ticular piece of patronage would go to u county outside of Brooklyn. New York finally landed it. much to the dis pleasure of the Republicans of the sis ter boiousti. It was about this time that Oov. Whitman was scouting around for sym pathizer for his boom for the Presi dency. If lie had one big county of the State Indorse hlin as a favorite son he figured It would go a greit way In help Ing the progress of his boom. The Brooklyn Republicans were advised If they took the InitiatKe In this direction they would have no le.iMUi to regiet their action. Consequently a meeting of the county committee was called and with a great hurrah the Brooklyn Re publicans went on recoid as lialorslng Whitman for President.

Ajmtmuiam, via London, Feb. "i. Tho l-'iinikfurtcr .cltnnii publishes the views nt n high German naval oflieer on submarine warf.ue. He says: "The view Is shared by the majority of Girm.in naval oltkers that a complete bleach between Germany and America would be conducive to a far earlier ami victorious termination of thu war, but only on condition that Germany derived all the re-ultM logically arising from such a breach, "As S"Oti us wo nenl have no more consideration for the Culled States we can wage naval warfare with the same ruthlessiiesN as the British hitherto have done. We could Immediately declare all Great Britain and Ireland blockaded, an nounce that every ship under whatever Hag tried to inter n British harbor would on entering the war zone lie re garded as a blockade runner mid would be destroyed without warning so as to eliminate tho hitherto existing tricks, especially lis past exierlence shows that every me rchant vessel Is armed." In reply to tho contention that tin) sinking of neutral merchant ships with out warning would piovuke neutral In dignation the olllctr said: "The Indignation of neutrals In a mat ter that touches our existence can In llnrnce us as little nt. It Influences at present the British, who unhindered constantly trample on the rights of neu trals." Tho eifllcer thinks that such a policy would lead to the starvation of Great Britain and then tu her submission and then niltomiitlcallv to the submission of RiiMda and France. America would then be Isolated and would have lo sub mit liei'iiuse Germany, having oblaluil from her other beaten opponents the transfer to Germany of all their great battleships and submarines, would be seven times stronger on sea than America. America then would lie beaten and would have to surrender all the German merchant ships which she has seized and also pay nil the war costs of the Central Poweis and their allies.

J. H. Kraeke, supported by his wing In the Brooklyn Republican organization, becanio a candidate for one of the com mlsslonershlps. The organization proper, under the leadership of Jacob Livingston, got behind Alfred K. Vass. chairman of the Kings Republican county committee, for another one of the vacancies. It seemed for a time as though Bridge commissioner Krarkc was helm se riously considered by Gov. Whitman for j one of these two appointments. Suddenly Kraeke withdrew nnd the I name of Mr. Vass becamo more promt-1 nent than ever. Then the Governor look another shift of his position and the un- happy tidings were sent to Brooklyn I nai Whitman ill. not Intend lo consider j Inn firiruniz.lt Inn In mul Utr hlj dtttxtlnt. 1 tho organization In making his appoint tueiits. This made many of the leaders bitter over thu Governor's aclon. He sent flic names of Messrs.

The cllinav of thu Impending ar was reached In the contest for the four delc- Kaie at large to tiie national convention at Chicago. Itiooklyn presented the name of William Herri, Regent of the State of New York and owner of the Brooklyn MMMifurii t'nfo it, for one of the "Big Four." It was lonceded that Ciov. Whitman was In favor of Mr. Herri Im mediately after Mr. Herri had dined with the Governor at the executive Mansion, i On the day of the convention word reached New York from Albany that Gov. Whitman had chnnged his mind atiout supporting Mr, Ben I nnd had swung to David Jayne Hill of Ro-liester because Boss Aldridge of Monroe county, nn ally of Whitman, wanted It. The nomination committee of the convention, lifter being In a deadlock between Herri and Hill lor three hours, finally com promised on Senator Klon R. Brown of Jelferson county. The defeat of Mr. Herri angered the Brooklyn delegates greatly. They at tributed this directly to the Governor and pointed to It as another evidence of Gov. Wliltmun's continued breaking of I merous rebukes given to them were still In the minds of the leader". A motion practically cutting olT all diplomatic re lations with the Kxecutlve Chamber was presented. It sought to rescind tho ac tion Indorsing the Governor for Presi dent, but It was laid on the table. The reason for this action did not be come apparent at the time. Now It has become clear to the Republicans gen erally. It means that unless tho Gov ernor withdraws the nominations of Hervey and Whitney the motion with drawing the losolutlon will bo carried. Not only will this carry the weight of the Klucs county ora.inlz.iti.iii against the Governor for President In any em ergency which may nrle at Chicago but It will be a sirlous handicap to him It be finally decides to become a I'audldate for a rcnomliiatlpn as Governor. By Joining with others In the Senate the four Brooklyn Republican Senators iiiuld effectively bloi'k any tnovo to bring about the continuation of Hervev and Whitney.

This was the extent to which, he went In Justifying a stattineiit that the pres ent sliu.ltlon Is less serious than It w and there Is no Immediate crM at liartd. The way lo such a discussion will be opened, it Is bellLVed, with the receipt In Washington y,f the memorandum of Instruction" being sent by the Berlin Foreign itllce to Count von Bvrnstorff.

Although officials of the Department refused to disclose Its enntents or admit even that it came from Italy, It w.i learned that It Is not a ll.it rejection of tho proposal, but argued at length In support of tho right of met chant ships to arm for defence. The argument. It Is undei stood, ho two parts. The tlrst deals with the legal phases of the law and Is technical. The second deals with the leasonabli r.ess of the right to arm It Is said the Italian Government calls nttuitlon to the fact that It was not until the circumstances came to light of the Austrian submarine attack on the Italian liner Ai.cona that the Italian authorities began arming their snips for defence. in th.ft case, the L'ultid Slate-. I re minded. It was shown that the Austrian commander. In violation of the rules of humanity and cMIUnl warfare, com mitted the piratical net of sending tho liner to the bottom while Itiuoeent per sons were still on board, thus causing their death. .No llveiise for ArmliiK. Kmphas.s appear to tie laid on this portion of the argument because of .Mr. Lansing's contention that In view of th abseme of the pirates or sea roveis on the high seas, leasou seemed to du Into that there was no excuse for defensive armament on merchant craft. With the Italian reply now m hand It s expected that lepliea from other llnteule Powers will soon follow as w lieu last heard from London the in. liter was being discussed by the British Ambas sador at Rome ami the Italian Foiclgu lllilie. Forewarned a week ago that the Hn tente Poweln Would probably reject tile modus vlveudl disarmament proposals President Wilson and Secretary Lansing have al.. union.. il all thought of depart ing from International law.

In discussing this n wa- admitted at the Dcpaltment that the Aloe! lean Gov eminent will have to consider the charge made by Germany and Austria couvel fl ing the alleged secret orders of the Hilt ish Admiralty instructing British niei' ehant ships to use their defensive iirma ment to tire on hostile submarines at sight, As the Fulled States Interprets the law of defensive armament to mean that the guns on merchantmen may not be used unless acts of piracy an committed against thorn, olllcials say that the se en t o rde is, if genuine, will have an Im pol lalll hearing A eopy of them ha been sent fioui I lleiliu by mall as an appendix to the German declaration a week ago regard ing tier Intention to toipeilo without warning all armed enemy merchant ships and Is expected lo leach.

Fort Douaumont, the most north erly outpost of the city's fortifications, wan captured yesterday morn ing by tho Germans. Later in the day a strong counter attack enabled the French to retake a position close by the fort, and to push their lines considerably to the north. Fort Douaumont is an old concrete defenco which is not in cluded in the modem works protecting tho city, which have been completely remodelled since the fall of Liege. The statement telling of the capture of Chumpneuvillo by the Germans yesterday is now said to have been "based on an erroneous report."

On tho Woovrc front the advanced forcen, whkh o had held ua the line of observation from Orns to llenne mont since the fighting of last year, have ben withdrawn from the liaec of the Meuse lielghts, on the order of their conuninder and without any attacks from the enemy. Our urtlllery o;i the rlphl bull and the left bank of. the Meuse Is rcspondlnc without cessation to tin enemy's bombardment. There Is nothing to report on the rest of the front. The news of tho unvesiful counter at tack by the Krcnch was trrccted by I'arlh with relief and liiievvuJs of cnniM.-noo In the fortrent and the troojw tlrfcndlnir It. Tho past week has been one of nnxlttv, snd the wili-iune news that the Germane had been thrown back out of a utronc position relieved the strain. It Is recounted that the battle for the fort Is sllll In progress and that It Is too early to count on the successful counter attack as a turning point of tho battle. At the same lime tho fact that after five eluv or uninterrupted sue caaaea on the narrow front the Germans hava been not only held but thrown back Is taken n an atisury of Bre.itcr French auciwikea to rome.

The Paris 7emp'a military review, which Is usually written by Gen. Dela croix, sums up the situation thus. The b.ittk being fought Is extremely serious. Ken should the heights of I'olvic ami the Vuuche wood bo taken, tha ciiuny would llnd us perhap.1 stronger in the Krohlelerrc-1 'oiiaumont line, from which begin lh defences properly sp-aklng "f tlm fortress, cov ered vvi'b t il las and batteries. This Is not u sligi by the Germans. It Is a. battle against t f our armies In tho garrison at Verdun and Its forts do not llgtiro In thc- combats as a support. Tlio big guns of the enemy might destroy the fort al Itou.iumout without destroy ing anything more than inert blocks of cement. "The snow has not caused any diminu tion of the attack-, because they cannot be suspended, They must bo continued to the end. The troops encaged would bo unable to imuln Idle long In the ter ritory captured while awaiting better weather conditions. A thaw would ren der their mutation worse and it must al ready be painful." I'rcvlou Attack a Feint. The ft HI I'tirhlru says that the Ger man attack In ChainpaKiio February 13 was intended as a feint to divert at tention from the preparations being niado against Verdun. Threo successive waves were sent against the French lines, sup ported by asphyxiating gas and liquid 0r. but the wind changed Inopportunely and tho gas fumes and llanos were turned back againu the Germans, frus trating the attack. A French oilleer returned from this front save the following description of the situation: "Tlio work up there Is hot indeed. They aro gnawing at our lines a little faiiter, but with no positive advantage for themselves. I'revioun attacks mailt by the Germans in that section are noth. I ti( to what they ate now delivering.

The Italian official slatemont leltln of tho evacuation says: Tho Italian brigade at Durazzo haa been withdrawn and haa embarked, Ihe Albanian Government having left the place.

The newa of the evacuation of the place caused no surprise here. The flight of lead I'asha after Ihe de feat of his army outside Durazro Wednesday last showed that any at- ie,,i,,i lu iimu iiiu taiy was uootned to failure. A despatch from Ilerlln gives details of the last lighting which preceded the entry of tho Austriana Into Durazio. It says "A strong lino of outer defences for the city had been constructed and tho Indications were that spirited resistance would be offered. "The Austrlans and Germans attacked at da.v break. Tho defenders were soon ejected from their positions at llazar SJak. Hhortly afterward the Italians on the southern bank of tho lower Arzcu were forced to abandon their Dosltlons. The. Austrlans crossed the river and pro ceeded southward. "At noon a decisive action east of Uarar HJ.tk drove the Italians from strong positions. The same fate was suffered by tho defenders of Sasi Itlauco. six miles east of Hurazzo. Ity evening the entire outer girdle of de fends was taken. The attackers, ad vancing to the Inner line positions, es tablished the fact that the Italians wero embarking their troops hurriedly." Purafzo. a town with about J.nno In habitants, was occupied by Italian troops soon after the opening of the great war and before Italy had Joined Ihe Allies, The outbreak of an uprising of Moslems against lsad Pashu was tho ostensible cause of Italy s action, but events havo demonstrated that Italy's fear that Greece would step Into Allianlt was the governing motive of the expedition.

For that reason thero Is n well defined report in Washington to-night that the Administration leaders may go so far on Monday as to force a vote on one of tha pending resolutions for the purposo of defeating It and thus Impressing Ger many with the Idea that the President has Congress behind htm. Representative Glass of Virginia, one of the President's leuders, In a stnttmcnl to-tilghl practically challenged the op position to submit to ii test vote. The report gained headway when press despatches lo-day from Ilerlln reported a feeling In Germany that the President would not dare forte the Issue over the Kaiser's Hew subuiurltie policy in view of the revolt In Congress.

The statement follows' "I do not fMpeot the Committee on Foreign Relations to g'.ve consideration to my resolution for the next three or four dajs If then, as It seems to be the opinion of th committee that nglta tlou of the question should be biaed as much as possible until the Adminis tration's policy Is tried out.

Ho also expressed dissent with views voiced by Speaker Clark and others who favored such action.

"I can understand it! can enjoy it as few men have ever enjoyed music be fore! "Yet three months ago music to me was 'Swanee River,' 'Home Sweet Home,' 'The Star Spangled Banner' and a few bars that I could whistle from the latest popular song!" WANT to tell every man and woman how I discovered music for myself it has meant so much to me this wonderful art in happiness, in truest enjoyment, in inspi ration. I know how much it will mean to you. "It all began with an ad that I read in mv morning paper. 'lJianola Recital,' it said, 'today at three.' 'Piatwltt Recital thought I, 'can a man actually play one of those instru ments so that a real audience will sit and listen "The idea kept running through my miml and three o'clock found me at Aeolian Con cert Hall to pee for nielf what the new fangled ideas in making nuir.ii: were worth. "I came to i-pend five minutes. I Maycd an hour. "In the soft, warm light of the stage, a young juan sat at a beautiful instrument and pent wave upon wave of wonderful tone out through the dint reaches of the great hall, peeking, and finding, the hearts of his auditors. "Long before the magic of his last number had ceased to grip me, I had realised the wonder of The Pianola. "Here was an instrument that set music free an instrument which needed not trained and flexible fingers to play it but only brains and soul, to uide a technic so perfect antl ex pressive as few pianists could equal "I turned from the Recital Hall to the sales rooms of the great Aeolian establishment. There, in a restful inusir-rooin, 1 heard The I'ianola again played this time by a cour teous salesman, who replied to my questions with interest and intelligence. "Antl presently he seated me at the instru ment and I tried mv skill. Of course, I could not play as did the artist in the Recital Hall, nor even as the salesman played. Hut 1 played well. I found myself producing really beautiful music- I, who never had practiced upon any musical instrument ;t7:t did not know one note from another. "So wonderfully simple is The Pianola that one learns its use easily, quickly but one must learn. And so broad the capacity of the instrument that there is no limit to the perfection which practice brings. "I decided there and ihen to have The Pianola sent home and immediately I was face to face wilh a problem. Now that I could play what should I play? "The salesman handed me a catalog listing several thousand rolls. I w.is morally certain that all the most desirable music ever written was included in the catalog, but I had no idea what kind of an assortment I ought to buy. "My salesman sensed the predicament. "'The Pianolist's Library will solve the music problem for you,' he said. And he showed me a cabinet coin, lining 124 hand somely boxed rolls .1 sort of edition de luxe of music-rolls. He explained that these mils were really a selection by the public. "The best-selling rolls, as shown by the Aeolian Company's sales records for many years, were taken as a basis, and from them l iustav Kobbe, critic antl writer upon musical subjects, made up this collection of classical compositions and popular pieces of the kind that never grow old. Music that has pleased thousands of men is likely to contain the elements that will phase every man. So I look the Pianolist's Library, too. I was Inn ing The I'ianola for music. And this selection of rolls was far better than I could ever have made even with the help of half a dozen willing salesmen "Months have passed since The Pianola came into our home. And with every dav it becomes more important to us all. "Thanks to the Pianolist's Library, and the very delightful book Mr. Kobbe has written to accompany it. our tastes have been well guided my musical friends are astounded -I am getting a grasp of music so rapidly. j "Hut the self-improvement is only a by proiliu t.

At the Mayor's conference yesterday of the New York city members of the il.l ai a i.tt vuuci-uun in suppon oi me tax reue. i bills at Albany, there was an unanimous vote In approval of two more Items of tho Mayot'j programme to lighten the city' burden of tnxatlon. The legisla tors approved of tho ptoposcit measure to provide an equal distribution of any super excle tax that may be imposed this year and the provision that the Stale pay the regulatory expenses of Hie Public Service Commission for the First district, as it does for the up state Commission. Tho legislators who attended the meet ing, however, did not take 1I1K action until many of those p.-eeiit had indulged. In the partisan reti.it tee th.-.t has chatuc terlied all of the pieccdlng conferences. It required M.t; or Mltchfl'H tact to bring the debate back the ptopcr channels when the debate bewail to resemble a. discussion on 'he floor o th legisla ture. The partisan outburst wan precipi tated by the reference to .i letter which was sent to the Mayo: tecently by fifteen Republican members of the Legislature from New York pledging their suppott to the greater part of the M.ior's tax lellef programme. Senator Robert F. Wagner nul that i the writing of the letter meant nothing but the Injection of part!an,slilp into the t effnrtH for the city. Senator (Igden 1. Mills leplled that the m'.norlty party had the same opportunity as the majority party or placing Itself on record lu sup port of the Mayor's proposals. Mr. Wagner retorted that the minority party was responsible for Introducing most of the niea.sures pending and that he considered the minority party ready to go further and support the whole pro gramme proposed by the Mayor, with a minor exception Mayor Mltiiiel said lie did not look upon the letter as showing partisanship After several more exchanges of thrusts Untllln.

The Maor appointed a committee con sisting of Senator Wagner. Senator Mills. Assemblymen Callahan and Flamman and tlie chairman.

Dig-in and Suction The 'Chain' Tread Tire has the two necessary features to prevent skidding and slipping, particularly on wet pavements the dig-in and the suction. The height of the chain above the surface of the tire gives the dig-in quality. The cup-like shape of the links gives the necessary suction to hold to the road.

"Do you remember the suggestion of naming the '(laynor tumifl'?" "Yen.

"You were convinced that theso con tracts were a good thing?" "There were no dual contract at that time. I wai alway for anything that would conserve the Interests of the city.

J That ended the testimony of Mr. Towns. J. Asplnwall Hodge, a lawyer. who was Interested In the suit of the Continental Securities Company against the Interborough and Its ossoclated companies, then took the stand to say that until the Thompson committee ne gan Its Investigation he had always supposed that everybody In the world knew the suit brought by the Admiral Realty Company to test the constitu tionality of the dual system contracts Were Instigated by and brought In the Interest of tlie lnlcrhornugh. He said President Shonts had so tes tified at a bearing In his office In March. It'll, month before the case was argued In the Court of Appenls. He said Mr. ShontR testified that the llrst plan was to bring an ordinary test suit, but that subsequently Mr. Nlcoll sug- cested a taxnaver's suit. He svild hl own Impression had been, and he believed that th" Impression of the courts was, that the Interborough had Instituted the suit with the consent of the city. Mr Hodge admitted that If the court h id been Informed nroperly of the na ture of the suit that Information would hac been conveved In tho very form of the paper presented In the ault. T II.

He said bo bad been Instructed by lounsel to appear with the papers and to answer any questions about them, but not to turn them over to the com mittee or Its accountant on the ground that certain matters In them were of 110 concern to the tommlttee, Mr. Moss tried to convince him that the committee would make use of noth ing that was not germane to the Inquiry and that the committee alone could Jiidue whether -any particular paper whs germane. Mr. (Illlesple remained firm, replvlng each time that he must refuse to hand over tho papers on the grounds specified by his counsel, Formal Demand Refined.

He was excused and the Senator directed that a certified copy of his testimony be prepared.

The company consumes aljout half n million tons or coal a ear ami, nrcoroing io the announcement of Mr. Moss, there are several coal denleis who think the Interborough ought to be romiiIled to buy from them rather than from two companies with which It has been do ing limine.") for years and which have given fntlsfnctory service. Vice-President David Ross of the In terborough was called as the first wit ness In behalf of the dlsgrunlled deal ers. He has chaige of purchases nnd he admitted that he had never heard of some of the companies which ore so anxious to compel the Interborough to buy their coal. He said the company bought Its coal from the Ibywlnd-Whlte company nnd from the Consolidation Coal Company. The fact that Mr. Her wind Is a director of the Interborough, he said, had never been consldetcd so fur n he knew, and he declined to be persuaded that his ctintlnunnce In his present Job depended upon his contin uing to purchase coal from Mr. Her wind' company. He said the concern of the lnterbor olgh wns to get the right kind of coal fiV Its purposes and also to Insure It self of a steady mpply by making con tract with established compnnles. A number of witnesses testified that there are companies handling coal Just as gwod ns that which the Rerwind-Whlte com liany produces. When they had finished Mr. (junekenbush asked one of them what he knew about tlw nullity of these would-be competitors to bring In i tend v supply. The answer of the wit ness was that he had every reason to believe that could be done, but ho ad mitted he bad no dellnlte knowledge on the subject.

One nf i. demands of our organisa tion nt this present session of Con Knsi is that the sixteen hour law tie amended so as t,i make the minimum penalty for each violation of that law 1 Instead of tho 12 or $2.50 which "Oino of the courts have been Imposing. Whv do wo seek this amendment? Be cause it Is our fundamental desire to cut off excess bourn fmin a man's em ilu mem, all of which go far toward fastening on that man occupational dls easis. causing In due time occupational disability. In no other occupation arc employees confronted with the rigid and constant physical examln itlons as are men em ployed In engine and train service. En gine .mil train nun are periodically re quired to undergo most rigid physical tests. Kvery man ho Is off duty on account of sickness is ulvcii a rigid test before ho Is permitted to return to active duty, These tests tvnnlst of ec examinations. heart examinations, kidney tests, blood pressure tests and any other test which the doctor deems essential or necessary in order to lay bare the man's physical qualilU .itions r quired In the perform ance of his duty lu the engine or train f m Ice.

Governor Whitman has abandoned his scheme for the consolidation of I the appropriation bill The grand reform of January lasted until almost the end of February. There will bo a supply Mil, because, says the Gov ernor, "they hnve convinced me It Is necessary." But 1 will to her iraxt year and the year after, and thr will be no mtpply bill then." Since January 1, 1915, the Gov ernor has "been there," and the anti quated, wasteful unscientific system he found In operation persists. He knew Its evils when he took office; his now discarded proposals were baaed on that knowledge; he had ample time to prepare for the strug gle he knew the correction of abuses would Involve. But "they" convinced him of the necessity for perpetuating the practices he condemned, and his master work of construction is post poned oxer an election. The Governor may "be there" In 1017 and IMS; but the men who profit by the present system will "be there": and they will defend that sys tem as competently nnd as adroitly In the future as they hnve defended It In the past.

An excellent Illustration Is furnished by the I'nltiil Sfntes District Court ileeMnn. Just rendered. In the ami rust suit brouehr by the Government for tin- dissolution of the American Can Company.

Therefore, .said Judge ItosK, "I nm frankly reluctant to destroy so finely adjusted an In dustrial machine as the record shows the defendant to be." This litigation terminated in the lower court by an unusual process. The Judgo refused either to dismiss the Government's bill or to decree the dissolution of the company. The Gov ernment Is left In h position to get relief If the corporation does not con duct Itself properly. The corporation 1 Is left free to go on doing business i to the satisfaction of customers nnd competitors.

i In the lecture room and In the hospl tnl wanN. Time was when a student wns expected to study under n precep tor three years, during which he at tended two courses of lectures from four to live mouths each in a medical school, after which he received his diploma nnd was sent out Into the community. In 18SU n three year course was adopted and laboratory Instruction was added. In the early 'tiOs the course was Increased to four yenrs. In most schools, because of the devel opment of specialties. In medicine. The chief objectives of a medical edu cation, general medicine and surgery, remained nenrly stationary, as far as methods and titan allotted to them were concerned, until they enme to represent n minor portion of the cur- I rlcabim In most medical schools ,h(, vnl nmnj realizing this abnormal condition, clinical Instruction assumed more prominence and clinical clerkships ucre added, so that (luring the an- i ,m cour.e of thirty weeks each a minimum of slv hours n day in class Is spent, which appears to menace the health of the students. Today even this lime Is Itisutllclont ade quately to teach medicine. The State boards of health have added to the difficulty by their rivalry In exaction of qualifications, some of them de. mantling a curriculum to be concluded w'lth one; year's Internship In a hos pital. This, however, Interferes with the preliminary education. Or. 1,miii:ut sa.vs, Justly, that while the necessity for a tlflb year Is uiidMilileill urgent, tin- Instruction In the hospitals- should remain under unlversli coniiol, thus relieving the crowding of the present curriculum. In this manner the gradual receives, In a properly organised five yearn courso of study, an opportunity to ob tain a broad view of tho whole field of practice. The organization of n proper fifth year should not be left to tho control of State boards nnd hospital authorities. The present system of rotating vis iting and Intern service must be abolished, because the first portion of the latter Is spent In n maximum of drudgery' In return for n minimum of Instruction, and the graduate obtains no opportunity for ndvnncc work In diagnosis and therapeutics until the last portion of his service. liy the proierly organized fifth your the stu dent will be relieved of nil clinical work In tho first two years, during which he can devote himself to labo ratory training and theoretical study, which are today fundamentals of practice, while, the third and fourth yenrs prepare for hospital service. Hospltnl authorities are becoming more and more convinced that the utilisation of the wnrds for clinical Instruction Is not, hs formerly sup posed, detrimental to the patient, but, on the contrary, the high class of ser vice given to the patient satisfies him. Since It Is the general public that furnishes the support of most hos pitals, legislative action to enforce tho utilization of the wards of all hospitals for clinical Instruction would not be resented, except by nar row minded trustees. Editor -Josephus's Opportunity. It must be apparent to Joskpium Daniels that his newspaper require nt this time his Immediate and per sonal supervision. His communica tions to his managing editor reveal the dissatisfaction Its present course has aroused In his mind. The Influ ence of the ngent of publicity In which Jostriifs's genius was exposed until the public service called him has been directed toward objects of fensive to his Intellectuals and nbhor rent to his disposition. Therefore, Josepiivs should go home. He should relinquish to an other the ungrateful duties that now absorb his energies. He should dedi cate to the defence of his own per sonal fortunes those gifts thnt are unappreciated by Admirals, Captains. Lieutenants nnd bluejackets. It Is unjust to him that he should continue a thankless task, unsupported by pub lic opinion, when his own interests loudly demand his constant nnd un divided attention. JosEPHrs ought to serve himself and serve his country by returning to his familiar desk. La Cata de Cervantes. We fancy that an Amerlcun idling in Spain at the present time would turn his steps toward Valtadolld with n keen Interest In In casn ifb Cervan tes, which Is being restored .'too years, lacking about fifty days, since the death (nt Mndrldl of the Immortal creator of Don Quixote. In this en terprise the Hispanic Society of New York Is cooperating with the Spanish authorities. In n recent issue of In lliutraclon Artl'tlcn of Barcelona the Marquis m: la Veoa Inclan snys: "NMthfr ttir Invcrtlg-iitlons of lllus trloua litterateurs unit biographers nf Ccuvantks, nor the worku of thn learned Kantamarina, nor tho pond Intentions of the city authorities of ValiadolM (especially of D.

The Marquis at the request of King Alfonso recently purchased the house in his name, nnd nrqulrod Nos. 12 nnd 1(1 on either sldo for tho His panic American Society. How like old Spain It Is that since Juan nr. i. Navah built early In the seventeenth century the house where Cebvanti.s lived for several years "no mnterlnl repnlrs" have been made. In the re iimstructlnn planned tho exterior Is to be exactly restored. A chance will bo mnde on the first floor to provide a room large enough to hold about one hundred people; here n professor of the university, or a visiting scholar, will give readings from Cer vantes. Klsowhoro there will be n library for preserving the oldest Hnd rarest copies of his works; nlso a printing press to reproduce "Don Quixote" and other populnr books, also pamphlets to keep tho Oistlllnn tongue pure. Rut this Is not all. Ynlliidolld has pledged itself not to permit the erec tion nf modern buildings on the lots near by, which are to be set out with a terrace nnd n garden "absolutely Spanish In character," together with a classical fountain to symbolize "the gushing forth, as from an Inexhausti ble spring, of the pure and vivifying currents of the Castlllim language, into all thn countries that owe their culture to Spnin." According to biographies of Cr.a vwntkh. it was on IVhruarv S. IIWVI. that ho settled In Yalladolld, to which the court of Pnn.tr III. had removed, nnd there CrnvANTT.fi began his bnttle. with the piratical booksellers of Lis bon, It is said that "the citizens nf Valladolld already regarded Don Quixote nnd Sanclio Pana us pro I verhhtl typox" In splteof thepopnlar demand for Ills book Cksvantin wns living In poverty live months after Its appearance. As late as November, 1607, he had to borrow 450 renles from his publisher, O.bvanteh may bo said to have lived from hand to mouth In Valladolld. Spain will hold a celebration In his honor on April 23, tho three hundredth anniversary of his death. The house now being reconstructed Is most precious ns n relic, for even thn grave where the author was burled In the convent of the Trinitarian nuns tit Madrid can no longer be Identified. We commend the tercentenary as a matter of ex ceptional Interest to tho readers of Cr.nvANTM In America. It must toe hard at any time for William Barnes to know whether he Is equipped with offensive or defensive armament. Secretary Daniels appears to be tho most Inconsistent newspaper proprie tor that ever scuttled a ship. The country always responds more enthusiastically to a stiff upper lip than to a shaking finger. We could not be convinced that that flue sailormnn Admiral Oamkron Me ruit Winhlow, V. H. N., would con sciously Jest while testifying before a committee of Congress. He 9 com mander In chief of the Pacific "fleet" and probably kept a straight face when he Informed the. committee that his "flagship" being out of commission ho used for thnt purpose the Iris, "a mother ship for torpedo boats, un armed." How can one rend that and not begin whittling his favorite song from "Pinafore"? Probably the Iris carries a slapstick wherewith to make a nols like a salute when visited by the Secretary of the Navy. We have sent a Minister to Mexico, but what that country needs Is a doctor. The cables seem to have crosed In transmitting the news that Japan will not send an nrmy to Join Russian troops and Ilussla will send an army to join French troops. Or perhaps the Czar Is Just handing the Mikado a few coals of fire. President Bltlks of Columbia com plains that It Is lmposlble to discover what Americans as a whole believe In.

"Ileslites," he argued, "the modern battleship shoots so far that the shells would go over the beach nnd strike here on thn nintnland." "The warship might keep miles off shore," his wife objected. "There would be no object in shell ing thn bench," Molllfer responded, "and even. If It were the target, the present war has shown thnt sand Is nno nf the best defences against high explosives. In sand their force Is quickly spent." Mrs. Molllfer seemed unconvinced. "All that would be necessary," her husband went on, "would bo to dig a cave In tho side of our dune. You and the children would lie safe." "A cave." repeated Mrs. Molllfer. She shuddered. "Children like caves," confidently observed Molllfer. "Now about the 'children's shoes" Mr. Molllfer began, but she broke off to say Irrelevantly: "Well, nny way, since tho Life Saving Service has been changed to the Coast liuard I've always felt more secure, somehow." Molllfer grinned. Hut when his wife went upstairs to tuck In coverlets be allowed himself to Indulge In serious thought. An earlier Molllfer had seen tills coast Invaded and had gone tn fight while his wife and Infant son fled for their lives; the child, reaching man- i hood, saw his country's capital burned by tho enemy. What had happened since to make It Impossible that theso things should ever occur again? Molllfer did not know. At least, his forefathers had understood how to light In defence of their honrs, "which Is more," he thought, "than I should know how to do." Hcfore him came the vision of an older brother who died In camp In 1S31. Ho saw again the pitiful ex pression of his mother's face and the hard anger of his father at n lg norancn and neglect which slew a hundred to the bullet's one. As tie i thought nf tho tnd upstairs an Inar- j i tlciilate feeling of love nnd pain tilled I the father's heart. Must his boy, too. j tm a wasted sacrifice?

President WINon May Display lib) Artistic Judgment. To tub HniToa of Tin: Hits' .Sir: Now President Wilson has another opportu nity to show tho American people If he Is really a man of refinement and cul tt.ro In making a sweeping decision against thn 'defacement of the great M-liem of I.'Knfiint and the plans of the commission of 1901 for thn future development along harmonious, lines of the cnplt.il ut Washington. Strange to note, tho much abused rnllroudi havo dono their best to em bellish this plan nt the expenditure of many millions. At n crisis In art as this Is, when the uncultured In their grosn Ignorance seek to destroy that which they nrn not nlilo to comprehend and feel, tho art world of the nation must appeal to the President. Turning back through our history, It Is Interesting to recall to-day how some of the former statesmen, besides having great Judgment In political controver sies, nlso hail great refinement, culture and taste, things now almost unknown from lack nf education In art Washington had refinement nnd ap preciation fnr architecture, p.dntlng and sculpture. His manner of dress, speech, nnd his wonderful home at Mount Vernon, showed his rare reiliieinent, not to be equalled by nny living Ameri can statesmnn to-day, To Thomas Jef ferson belongs even greater distinction, for besides having all that Washington possessed he was a finished urchltcct and draughtsman, having designed his own mniialoti at Montlcello, nnd planned and tald out the University of Virginia nt Charlottesville, unsurpassed In the t'nlon to-day for pureness of style and simplicity of architecture. There now comes along n lapse nmong the Presidents, unlll we como to Lincoln, vhoe Presidential office was tnken tip with the civil war. I feel sure that had any opportunity enme to him. as It now comes to President Wilson, Lincoln on account of his honesty nf mind and his love for thn truth would have stood for advancement and tho future devel opment of art In the national capital. Since those bygone days Itoosevelt U the only man who has been Interested In thu line arts, nnd to accomplish something bo appointed the commission of 1 CO 1 to look out for thn nrt prows of the capital. It Is now for Wilson to add an other advance to the cause and to show us that In matters of refinement nnd real understanding of city planning the 1 college professorls not unprep.ired. How different wo arc from tho beauty In!ng South Americans, who have grown more iirtMtle thnn we, and In less time Within tin) last fifty years their cltln have grown to equal If not surpass the capitals of Lurope. The American can always turn to bl old excuse, "ton young" ton young to be prepared? Too young tn have a mer chant marine Too voting to have re finement?

See how easy It Is for you to save that historic outline frnm 1 the smoke house, tho factory chimney, to save the plans of L'Kafant, to uphold tho plans of the Art Commission of l!at ami to gain the pralo nf the leading artists nf the nation.

Short eight years ago the thren lead ing statesmen of Hie Itepuhtleaii party wem chums. Things have happened since, I admit. Ilut are thesn political giants not big enough to forget their personal grouches unci lndlvldu.il am bitions when the fate of dear old U, f. P. Hiid the welfare of the United States are at slake? Let them show to the American voters and thn world at large by their reconclllatory mood nnd abnegation that they aro Indeed so absorbed In the question of national de fence nnd national preparedness to de fend tho country's honor and Interests abroad, and even in the greater question of real Americanism In this republic, that all other considerations tn-cesr earlly shrink Into absolute Insignificance. I.et them prove by their attitude and actions that tho best pulley at this junc ture Is undoubtedly to subordinate the question! of party strlfo and party ad vantage to the nation's present needs and to do everything In one's power to carry out In the broadest spirit such a progrnmme. In brief, I nm convinced thnt should Choate or Iiepnw be able to get together tho three men, loving and respecting each other even now In splfo of the I misgivings and misunderstandings of the past, before five minutes have gone Teddy will have slapped Taft on ills broad sboiilderbl.ides, Taft told a roaring story, and so on This reconciliation, besides honoring the principal agents themselves, would III! the Ileitis of two-thirds of the Ameri can people and all of America's friends abroad with unbounded Joy, for no pre.

Hoot coutd Immediately start thinking of his first Presidential mes sage, Teddy make himself ready for the i occupation of his old Vice-Presidential chair while continuing with greiter vigor and authority than ever his na tional defence crusade, and Taft ask Lansing to keep him posted on current topics. Do you believe Kitchener and Jutfm care very much about whl h post they ought to occupy. Secretary of War, (Jenerallsslmo or Chief of Staff, as long as they can contribute their share to final victory? Momentous indeed, to quote the declaration of principles of the Progressive pnit. vvlll be the qm-etlons that will confront "the chlllred world during the four years that constitute our next Presidential term," And It ought to bo considered as a signal honor even by the greatest statesmen to cs cupy at an ipoi h ot so tremendous Imisirtnnce In world history post of responsibility, however the lald may read. In the heyday of tho Human republic fmmer Consuls did not hesitate to serve their fatherland even In minor posi tions. America llrst must bo the slogan of all of us. In 1'jJT Uio then seventy-six ear old Hoot will be glad to retire definitely from public life Teddy, at thn age of sixty-three, will bo able to start his third term, and Taft will at last be tn a position to realize his ill cam of terminat ing his politico-Judicial career In the preslduitl.il chair of the Supreme Gnurt of the Cnlted States.
