DWIGHT RESIGNS. Tb Venerable Prrlilt . v-i. lailversltjr hfrk, lUllrrmmt. President Tlm.thy Dwight. mho for 12 years has been president of Yale uni versity, has printed hi resignation to the crrroratlon t iw ,rr.,t it.. ' ' . . 1 1 1 T end of the present academic year. Among the friends of this great edu cator' It- has been no km re for u.ttis time that the president contemplated his resignation before age weighed too heavily upon him, hut his executive en thusiasm In the arrangements for the coming bicentennial celebration in 1S01 PRESIDENT DWIGHT. had led to the belief that he .vould not abandon his high ofllce until the festival had been celebrated. Immediately upon the presentation of the resignation the corporation passed the following minute: "The announcement by the president of his resignation of his ofllce, to take effect at the end of this university year, has come to the corporation as a great surprise, and they would most profoundly regret it if they believed it was necessary to accept this action a 3 final and conclusive. "While testifying their affectionate admiration for him personally and their gratification with his administration the corporation most earnestly requests and urges him to fix the date of his re tirement at the time of the bicenten nial celebration in 1S01; therefore 'Resolved, That the corporation ear nestly requests the president to de lay the date of his retirement until October, 1901." President Dwight subsequently ex pressed his feeling that he must abide by the decision announced in his let ter of resignation, and the letter was then referred to a special committee to report at a meeting of the corpora tion to be held on Dec. 13. Timothy Dwight, the twelfth presi dent of Yale university, is the grandson of Timothy Dwight, who was president of Yale from 1795 to 1817. The present Dwight was born In 1828. Graduatinj rrom Yale in ibVJ, ne served two years rs a tutor in the college. At the same time he studied in the Yale theological seminary and concluded this work in 1855. In this year he went abroad and studied two years at the universities of Bonn and Berlin and upon returning to America was ordained a minister. In 1858 he was elected professor of sacred literature in the Yale seminary, filling that chair until he became president of the university in 1S86, the successor of Noah Porter. It was immediately after President Dwight assumed his high executive po sition that the college took great strides in its scope and popularity and develop ed from a college into a university, and his administration throughout has been on the broad lines originally laid down. DINGLEY ON THE TARIFF. Amrrii That There Will Be No Im mediate Revision. Representative Dingley, chairman of the ways and means committee, says in an interview regarding the proposed re vision of the tariff: "The government will need for some time all the revenue produced by the war taxes. During the month of Octo ber the war expenditures exceeded the war revenue by some $14,000,000, and this month they will be $10,000,000 in excess. This being the case, there will be no change at least this fiscal year. The war revenue act will continue in force and unchanged, except perhaps in a few minor administrative features, for- at least a year longer. "It is hardly necessary to add," con tinued Mr. Dingley, "that there will be no revision of the tariff, although I have seen some statement to the effect that such a revision is contemplated. "The session is limited to three months," continued Mr. Dingley, "and that short period will be mainly occu pied in passing the appropriation bills, in enacting new laws for the regular army and in deciding upon the legisla tion necessary for the government of Hawaii. In addition to these important matters, the usual number of routine matters will arise. From the present outlook the session will be well under way before the treaty of peace with Spain w'll be laid before the senate, and the ratification of that document may not be accomplished before the 4th of March arrives."

Thlaka Mack of It Was Dae ta the Ifiaraaec and IneBScleacy of Ur-I uarlurat and Itealmeatal Con-uaadrra-Drfraai Med leal Corp. Washington. Nov. 21. Surgeon Gen eral George M. Sternberg has made his report to the secretary of war. It re lates mainly to the work of the medical! corps during the war. The following i are the more important features of the report: "The number of medical officers, 192, allowed by law to the army Is Inade- luute in time of peace. The insufficien cy in time of war was met by the as signment of over 650 contract surgeons. The very small proportion of medical officers having experience of a military character impaired the efficiency of the department at the outset, but many of the staff surgeons from civil life showed GENERAL STERNBERG. great aptitude for the service and speedily became of value as admlnistra tive and sanitary officers. No provision was made for hospital corps men for the volunteer troops, ex cept that which empowered the secre tary of war to enlist as many privates for the hospital corps as the service re quired. The number of men enliste-d and transferred during the war was ap proximately 6,000. "The want of a sufficient body of trained hospital corps men necessitated the detail of enlisted men from the regi ments for hospital duty in several of the camps and the employment of train ed nurses at the general hospitals. Over 1,700 female nurses have been employed, at first at the general hospitals and lat er at the field division hospitals, when it became evident that the field service purposes, for which the latter had been organized, would have to give place to the imperative need of caring for the many sick men coming from the regi mental camps. "Soon after the newly raised levies were aggregated in large camps sick ness began to increase progressively from causes that were so general in their operation that scarcely a regiment escaped from their harmful influence. These causes may largely be referred to ignorance on the part of officers of the principles of camp sanitation and of their duties and responsibilities as re gards the. welfare of the enlisted men in their commands. Fault Not With Camp Site. "The sites of certain of the camps have been instanced in the newspapers as the cause of the sickness which was developed in them, but a review of the whole situation shows that it 'was not the site, but the manner of its occupa tion which must be held responsible for the general spread of disease among the troops." After "referring to orders Issued for the sanitation of camps General Stern berg says: "Practically nothing was done to make the men comfortable or to rem edy the unsanitary conditions until these were brought to the attention of the secretary of war by inspectors sent out from the war department. Then the camps, held for so long, were aban doned, but not before the manifesta tions of typhoid infection were rife in them. New sites were carefully select ed, regimental camps were expanded. company tentage increased and board flooring provided. Then, for the first time, the troops went into camps suita ble for continued occupation. "It was the typhoid fever," continues General Sternberg, "which broke down the strength of the commands general ly, the outbreak becoming distinctly manifest in July. Sporadic cases ap peared in most of the regiments in May and June, these cases having been brought in many instances from the state camps." The contaminated water supply, the surgeon general contends, was the chief cause of the prevalence of typhoid fever and says: "To prevent transmission by the wa ter supply I recommended the use of boiled and filtered water when a pure spring supply could not be obtained, and to enable an efficient filtration of suspected waters to be made field filters of approved construction were issued on my recommendation by the quarter master's department." SpeaTcing of the Santiago campaign General Sternberg says: "When the command embarked on the transport vessels the baggage wagons and mules were left behind. The ambu lance trains of all the divisions, with a large part of the outfit of each of the hospitals, were also ieft behind. "Of the property and supplies carried to Cuba a portion was not available for service at the time it was most needed, to wit, on July 1, 2 and 3, when the wounded from El Caney and San Juan were coming from the front for care and treatment. This was because, in general, no opportunity was afforded to land the medical property. Earnest ef forts were made by medical officers to have supplies at the front with the troops. During and after the battles of El Caney and San Juan there was an insufficiency of tents, cots, bedding and medicines, due to the causes stated, but all the hospitals were well equipped for surgical work." General Sternberg insists that his de partment was not responsible for the condition of transports in wliieh sol diers were returned from Santiago nor for the alleged abuses and prevalence of disease at Camp Wikoff or other home camps after the fall of Santiago.

The American peoc commissioners, la a written communi cation to the Spanish conimlaa.iun.-r. declare that the third article of the protocol regarding the Philippine Is capable of only one fair construction. thai no arbitration la needed to eluci date Its term and that the United States cannot admit any other power lit figure here purely as a lt-&lcoUlaL. Thtfjr maintain that the two commis sions are charged to determine- whether Spain or the United States shall in fu ture own the Philippines. This communication is accompanied by a clear declaration that the United States will tHjsess the Philippines. Following this declaration the Ameri can commissioners lay before the Spun- lards two alternatives: First To accept a sum of money from the United t Sales and to cede and evac uate the Philippines. Second To lose the Philippines to the Ui-lted States by conquest, with the possibility of other territorial limoea to Indemnify the United States for the added exjense of cotiijuewt. This communication may not be for mally designated as an ultimatum, but it lacks nauuht of the exclusivetiesx In dicated by that word. Its terms are so plain that the Spanish commission ers will scarcely haggle for more money on the first altern. v not cherish any doubt of American action under the second should the hrst be declined. No one here, except the Aimriran commissioners, knows how much will be tendered Spain as the cheapest and most humane way of xettling the dltll culty. She is exceedingly anxious to escape the Philippine debt, and possl bly the sum to be offered may be deter mined by an analysis of that debt. which consists of $10,000,000 in bonds, on which she realized $26,000,000. Of the latter amount she is believed to -have expended $10.000,(MM) or $11.0Hl.ooo in fighting the United States and a part in attempting to quell the Philippine In surrection. A reasonable guess at the sum for tender would be $20,000,000. though It may fall below that. A dispatch from Vienna says: "Fol lowing the advice of Austria and Ger many, Spain will accept America's offer of compensation for the Philippines." Ano her dispatch from Madrid says: In political circles it Is asserted that an agreement has ieen reacnea be tween the peace commissioners in Paris. "The government, it is semiofficially announced, intends to notify the Cuban bondholders that Spain will not pay the Cuban debt, which will not be mention ed in the peace treaty. The government considers itself completely freed from these engagements, which fall upon the nation exercising sovereignty and col lecting taxes in Cuba." Race War Over Baptism. Woodbury, N. J., Nov. 21. The Rev. I. M. B. Thompson, pastor of the Cen tral Baptist church of this city and for merly of Jersey City, threatens to re sign from the church owing to differ ences which have arisen between the trustees and himself over a request of the colored Baptists for permission to use the baptismal pool of the Central church to immerse their converts. When the request was presented to the trustees. It appeared to have the In dorsement of the Rev. Mr. Thompson, and the board granted the permission. The matter would have rested there had not some of the members of the church objected. Women members. It appears, objected to having white persons use the pool after negroes had used It. Ths trustees then rescinded their previous action. Now Mr. Thompson says if the second action of the trustees is not re called he will resign, although as yet he has not handed In his resignation. The church is divided on the question. and many of the white congregation support the minister. Commodore Mnyo Sued For Divorce. Waterbury, Conn., Nov. 21. It has just become known here that Jennie Elton Stevens Mayo, wife of Commo dore W. K. Mayo, U. S. N., retired, of Washington, had applied for divorce a few days ago in the superior court. New Haven. Decision was reserved. The commodore was represented by counsel. not to oppose the petition, it is said, but only to reduce the alimony to as small an amount as possible. Commodore Mayo in 1892, even then grown gray In the service, met Miss Stevens in the White mountains. He soon came to Waterbury upon a visit and again met Miss Stevens, a belle of this city, who at 30 was still heart free. She was the daughter of Orville H. Stevens, a lead ing manufacturer, who had held every office in the gift of his townsmen except that of mayor. Bad Accident In Xew Jersey. Trenton, Nov. 21. G. W. Rogers of Camden, employed as a conductor on the Amboy division of the Pennsylvania railroad, and H. G. Rue, baggage mas ter of Rogers' train, were killed at Rail way last night. They had completed their run for the day and were walking to the depot to take a train for home when run down by the Chicago limited. east bound. Their bodies were cut up and scattered along the track for some distance. The engineer of the limited apparently did not know he had struck any one, for he went ahead without stopping. The bodies were taken to the morgue. ' Nancy Guilford In Bridgeport. Bridgeport, Conn., Nov. 21. Mrs. "Dr." Nancy Guilford, the noted mid wife, who is charged with having caused the death of Emma Gill, spent her first Sunday In Bridgeport since her some what abrupt departure of Sept. 14 in the county jail yesterday. Her only visitors were her son Harry, who, in company with Sheriff Hawley, was al lowed to visit his mother for a brief while, and her counsel, Jacob Klein. Bis Fire at Dawson City. Advices from Skaguay, Alaska, via Victoria, B. C, state that returning Klondlkers- arriving in that city bring the news that the city of Dawson has been visited with a $500,000 fire, in which 40 buildings were burned, including the new postofflce building and some of the best buildings in the city. The fire took place on the morning of Oct. 16. It start ed in the Green Tree saloon as the re sult of a row between two women. Belle Mitchell threw a lighted lamp at anoth er woman. The lamp broke, the oil spread, and In a few seconds the build ing was on fire. The flames were com municated to the postofflce adjoining. and from there to other structures. Al though nearly all the mail was saved. it is in great confusion. All that re mains to show where formerly 40 build ings stood are a few blackened lozs. l'I'II'M'I'II'I'M'II'I'I'I'M-I'M' PYNYPECT0RAL A QUICK CURB FOR ' COUGHS AND COLDS. tt VEtT VALUABLE rMdy la all T actions of tho T THROAT OR LUNGS.

He was born in Philade! phia in 1S37, of German nnd French blood on the maternal side and English and Swedish on the paternal. He in herited a musical taste from his mother. and In the cultivation of that taste he developed what, in later years, astound ed the scientific world. It was his assertion for upward of 3 years that the vibratory force of the atmosphere, properly contiolled. coulJ be harnessed so as to control mechan ical devices with power a millionfold greater than steam. He proposed with the stroke of a fid die bow to produce force enough to run a train of cars l.OoO miles: to drive projectile as soft as tallow through plate of armor; to run an engine with such speed that its velocity would cause its parts to fly asunder; to cause the rock and earth surrounding precious metals to separate and fall and leave the metal naked and free, and all this he asserted to be able to do by control ling the molecular force of the earth's envelope of air.

He was backed by a coterie of friends and believers who had absolute faith In him, and chief among them was Mrs. Bloomfield Moore, the widow of a wealthy Philadelphia merchant, who, for nearly a quarter of a century, be lieved so thoroughly In his genius that she advanced thousands and thousands of dollars to enable him to continue his experiments. Suicide of Bank President. The First National bank of Emporia, Kan., was closed by order of the comp troller Wednesday afternoon. An hour later C. S. Cross, the bank's president and one of the best known breeders of Hereford -cattle in the west, shot and killed himself at Sunny Slope, his fa mous stock farm, near the town. Spec ulation is said to have led to Cross' downfall. His fortune has doubtless gone down with the bank. Among the heavy losers by the failure are Lyon county and the city of Emporia. AH the city and county funds were deposited in the institution. Cross was custodian of his father's estate, which is also said to be in a wrecked condition. Promoted For Gallaatry. The president has appointed Lieuten ant Joseph C. Byron, Eighth cavalry, as a captain and assistant quartermas ter. Lieutenant Byron is a West Point graduate of the class of 1S82. His serv ices have been conspicuously merito rious. In the present war with Spain Lieutenant Byron accompanied, as aid de camp. General Schwan's brigade of regulars to Porto Rico. He was severe ly wounded at the battle of Hormigue ros, on Aug. 19. Lieutenant Byron Is known throughout the service for his devotion to duty and his soldierly quali ties, a character which he abundantly sustained in the Porto Rico campaign. THOSE WHO ENDURE The pains of rheumatism should be reminded that a cure tor this disease may be found in Hood's Sarsaparilia. The experience of those who have taken Hood's Sarsaparilia for rheu matism, and have been completely and permanently cured, prove the power of this medicine to rout and conquer this disease. Hood's Sarsa parilia is the Oue True Blood Puri fier and it neutralizes the acid which causes the aches and pains of rheu matism. This is why it absolutely cures when liniments and other out ward applications fail to give perma nent relief. Be sure to get Hood's. SEWS OF THE WEEK. Naaa.alaH f la !
