PROVISIONS WERE LACKING FIRST INTIMATION THAT THE MEDICAL STAFF IS NOT SATISFIED WITH PROPOSED CONTAGION HOSPITAL. John L. Rupe, of the trustees of Reid hospital, makes the following statement about the contagion ward at the hospital: "At a meeting of the board of trustees held some time ago a committee was appointed to conider the matter of a new building. It was not a committee of doctors, but was composed of Mr. Eggemeyer and Mr. Deuker from the boar dof trustees. Dr. Davis and Dr. "W ampler, from the staff and Dr. Bond city health officer. Dr. Davis submitted a pencil sketch giving his idea of what the building should be. It provided four rooms with a central chimney, withoutsided oors to each room, the building one story with the roof extending down to make a shed porch all around the building. There was no practical provision for any one going into the building, that is no place was provided for a friend of the patient, none for linens or working place. "The Board, through its committee and the city health officer had prepared the plans for building on the site of the present stone building. Last Wednesday evenin gthe board invited the members of the city council, the mayor of the city and the medical staff and submitted these plaus to all together .talked of them, invited criticism of them, had them explained by Mr. Kaufman, the architect, and Dr. Bond, the city health officer. It is not true that the members of the medical staff were not invited to this meeting. They were invited in the usual way, viz: The president and secretary of the ttaff was directed to notify all the members to attend the meeting, and six or eight of the staff members actually attended. No objection was offered to the plans by any one present, member of council, or member of the Medical staff. Dr. Bond, the city health officer, was asked at this meeting for his opinion as to whether there was any objection to the use of the present building as proposed from a sanitary standpoint and he stated there was no objection on that ground, and there was no dissent from this view by any one present. "The publication in the Palladium is the first intimation which has come to the board of trustees that the plans were objected to for any reason by any member -f the staff.

"'"PAGEANT." Prof or Skaat on th Proper Pronunciation of tha Word. Instead of trusting to casual observers, it is far better to understand the principles, that govern our pronunciation. There I one principle in particular which, rightly considered, gives us a good deal of help in the instance under consideration. In my "Primer of English Etymology" I give some simple rules of accentuation. Rule 1 is as folios: "When the length of a word is augmented an original long vowel is apt to be shortened by the accentual stress falling upon it." Such augmentation Is due to the formation of a derivative. An easy example Is seen in the case of cone, pronounced with a long "o," for if we form a derivative by adding the suffix "ic" the result is conic, with a short "o." There is a general principle that affects the whole language and sets up a standard habit By way of illustration, compare bile with bilious, crime with criminal, brake and bracken, dine and dinner, mine and mineral, coal and collier and perhaps at least seventy more. A remarkable instance is seen in collie, which Is merely a new pronunciation of coaly. Certain dogs were once called coaly dogs because of their coal black markings. An extension of the same principle may be made in comparing the dissyllabic forms agent and cogent with the allied trysyllables agitate and cogitate. When once such a principle has become general it is obvious that a word like pageant will be influenced by the very large number of dissyllables that have the former vowel short, and this Is why the truly normal pronunciation of the word resembles the "a" in Paget I do not certainly know the origin of that name, but I suppose it Is merely the diminutive of page, in which the "a" Is shortened as a matter of course simply because the diminutive "et" has be.?n added. The pronunciation of primer has often been discussed, and many are they who think that they clinch the matter by saying that the "I" In the Latin primus U long, for that proves nothing at all as regards modern English, and those who have studied our peculiar ways with the closest attention are well aware that the normal way is, after all, to pronounce it as if it were spelled primmer. We do not therefore spell it with a double "m," because that is not our system. We write tonic and conic and mimic In order to how their connection with tone and cone and mime, and we trust that the unfortunate reader, after he has thus had the etymology explained to him. will provide the pronunciation for himself. Such a word as pageant may be usefully compared with magic and tropic and agitate. London Academy. Human Musorea. If the muscles in the arm of the average man were put together and a nervous impulse passed into them, their contraction would lift a weight of 224 pounds from the ground. Muscles have the unique power when stimulated by nerve impulse of contracting somewhat as rubber bands might do If they could squeeze themselves up shorter. They are. In fact the reverse of rubber, for they contract only and cannot stretch out Minneapolis Journal. On Comfort. They were weeping for the head of the house, whose automobile had gone over the bank.

25 Cents a Number I908 ADAIR WILL SPEAK IN RICHMOND TONIGHT His Principal Theme Will Be Ship Subsidy. EXPECT INTERESTING TALK. Congressman J. A. M. Adair of Portland, Ind., one of the few successful democratic aspirants of the most recent election, will arrive in Richmond this evening, and will appear before the members of the Commercial club and their invited guests tonight. Congressman Adair will make his principal theme, ship subsidy. His views are contrary to those of Congressman James E. Watson, who spoke before the local organization some time ago. Congressman Adair was urged to take up his side of the question by Secretady E. M. Haas, in the belief that the club would better benefit if the opposite views were heard. Congressman Adair is a man of pleasing personality and of great intelligence, and members of the club are expecting a most interesting speech. City and County STAT I ST 5 CS. Deaths and Funerals.
