A HE I) CROSS CENTER.
VVHERE RELIEF SUPPLIES ARE COL4 LECTED
AND DISTRIBUTED.
A Medium Through Which the Individual American With a Kind Ueart Helps the Sick and Xeglected Soldier Who Has an
Empty Stomach,
The war may be over, but the work of the Red Cross is by no mcaus finished. It has been increased if anything. Olara Burton, from her post in Cuba, declares that the real work, to make
MAKING Ul' PARCELS, l.KD CUOSS HEADQOAKTEKS. possiblo the accomplishment of which the war was waged, has just begun. Her plans for the wholesale relief of battle warred Cuba will not ouly continue the activity of the association for weeks, but will greatly enlarge its field.
The individual American hears of sufV riri': and vhhof for an oppcrfunity to do his pari in relieving it. Tue Red Cross association oifers that opportunity. This accounts for tho great sums of money which are constantly flowing into the treasury of the organization. By means of thousands of Red Cross auxiliary societies a great multitude of women workers give their time and labor to the cause.
All this makes interesting the great receiving and distributing depot which the Red Cross maintains in New York. It is the center to which all supplies are attracted and from which they are scattered. It is the medium through which the individual American combines his modest offering with those of others and has the whole sent out as great, gonerous gifts from a thoughtful, tender hearted nation.
The whole ground floor of a great office building is devoted to the workings of this vast humane machine. This room, of enofmous size, in the midst of the rattle of Broadway, is the sole Red Cross sr.pply depot in the east. Beyond the Rockies the committee has another —to forward supplies to Manila.
This "supply room" is bare and pro saic., It is filled with boxes, packing cases, "crates, heaps of cots, piles of clothing, towels, handkerchiefs, canncd goods and jellies. On boards resting on trestles are the "sundries" from the auxiliaries, unpacked and sorted. Near the entrance is a row of desks for Cleveland H. Dodge, the manager, who is giving his entire time to this work Miss Hoffman, his assistant a stenographer and two young men, who attend to all details of shipping and expressing and who are also the "buyers."
Thousands aro expended each week in the purchase of provisions—delicacies such as the army does not give its men. For one. single load of this sort, shipped only the other day to Montauk Point, a bill of a firm of wholesale grocers came in for over $2,000. It included things dear to the heart of tho worn out soldier—soups, lime juice, ginger ale, tea, sugar, cereals, beef capsules and crackers. In the purchase of such as these the accounts of the committee are running up into the hundred thousands, and there is no end to the demand.
Early and late the work never flags. All in this room, with the exception of a very few, are volunteers. And the packing, tho sorting, the handling of a thousand and one complicated details, go 011 with a vim that is wonderful.
Nearly every day from 15 to 20 women come for hours to unpack, sorff and repack the goods tho auxiliaries have
EQUIPPED COTS READY FOR SHIPMENT. sent in. Everything is tied up in packages of a dozen—pyjamas, suits of underclothes, handkerchiefs and towels. Everything is stamped with the Red Cross mark, and as the requisitions arrive huge packing cases are filled up.
Not a romantic sort of work indeed, this bending over cases on a hot day, tramping back and forth, handling numerous articles of clothing. Not eves the halo of sentiment is there that clings to a hospital nurse. But it is done for the "soldier boys," and that is sufficient.
Close to the entranoe there are lying, ready for shipment, added to by a trio of porters who are constantly tying new ones up, great piles of the Red Cross camp specialty—the "equipped cot."

Lieutenant Mills is the first officer ot his grado to hold this position, as it is usually given to major generals and brigadiers, but the new superintendent won his way to the favor of President McKinley by his gallant con-

When the war began, Lieutenant Mills was stationed at tho military school at Fort Leavenworth and was in chargo of the department of strategy and tactics. Ho promptly applied for active duty and was mado a captain of volunteers. Ho was assigned as chi,-f o* in Oi brigade, of wliicii the ruUgii liuuxs Wuio a part.
Albert L. Mills is 44 years of age, a native of New York and has been in the service a little more than 19 years.
Has a Good Time In Prison. Emile Arton of Panama notoriety seems to be undergoing an ameliorated form of punishment for his misdeeds. He was sentenced to serve his term in the Central prison at Melun. He is nevertheless comfortably domiciled in the Hospital of Saint-Louis, Paris, where he has a special chamber and a garden and where he smokes the best of cigars. The Autorite asserts that these favors are due to certain ministers and judges in return for the silence w,,sih Arton observed concerning their con. ction with the Panama scandal.
A New York Society Girl. Lady Randolph Churchill is one of the three famous Jerome sisters who figured so prominently in New York society in the early seventies. Miss Jennie Jerome became the best known of the three because of her marriage to the brother of the late Duke of Marlborough. The marriage took place in 1874 and has proved an exceptionally happy one. Her husband attributed much of his cuccess in political life to the efforts of his wife. She is the mother of two sons, her eldest being a lieutenant in the army.
"Fittlitinff Joe's" Daughter. "If you go, I'll go," said Miss Annie L. Wheeler to her father, "Fighting Joe." It was in tho days when our trouble with Spain was just coming to a head, and they were talking lAout the prospective war in the Wheeler home. The old general had just said if there was need of volunteers he was going to the front, and his pretty daughter made the response quoted above. She meant it too. The government wouldn't accept Miss Wheeler as a nurse, so she applied to Clara Barton of tho Red Cross and was assigned to duty at Santiago. She

went to the front at once, and finding her brother ill prooeeded at once to nurse and care for him. It was in her brother's tent that her father saw Miss Annie first after leaving home. He was very angry and wanted to send her home at once. She protested, and a compromise was arranged by which the young woman went into Santiago and placed herself under Miss Barton's protection.
Everybody iKiquainted with the terrible times speaks in highest praise of the bravery of Miss Wheeler in faoing danger and fever around and in Santiago for the purpose of serving her country and halping the suffering soldiers. Upon her return from Cuba the devoted young nurse went immediately to the stricken camp at Montauk Point and went to work.
Great Weakness
Unable to Walk and Hardly Able to Speak Long Time an Invalid— Now Strong and Healthy.
I feel it a duty to testify to the merits of Hood's Rarsapnrilln. I was longan invalid and unablo to walk on account of weakness. I could hardly speak. A friend told me about Uood'sSarsaparilla and I began taking it. After taking six: bottles I could sit up in a chair and 1 could talk so that any one could hear curt very distinctly. I continued taking Hood's Sarsapanlla until I could walkabout on the farm. Today I am strongand healthy and can do as good a day's work as anyone. Tho facts I have stated can be proved by many people in thia neighborhood who knew my condition. I hope others afliicted as I was will be lod by my experience to give Hood's Sarsaparilla a trial. I believe it is the best blood purifier in the world today." WILLTAMT A. TUALLEN, Elnora, Indiana.
