The strong cat recommendation in the annual re port of Surgeon General von lteypen, just made public, is that relating to an increase in the medical corps of the navy. He points out that while there has been a steady increase in the en listed force of tho navy for the last two years, while the marine corpse has been swelled by the addition of 3,000 men, there has been no suitable provision for a corresponding increase In the medical corps, which is charged with the care of the health of these men. Every surgeon who is not sick is said to bo on duty and the depart ment has been unable to supply sur geons for examining recruits and -s, other duties. Therefore the surgeon general ronmmendi that the corps be in creased five surgeons and twenty as sistant surgeons and that five volun teer surgeons who served in the war and are now in service be transferred to the regular rolls and the ago limi tation be removed in their cases. There are eighteen of these men. It is also earnestly urged that the naval assistant surgeons be placed on an equalty with those of the army In pay end rank. At present the army can get all the medical service it needs, while the navy can get scarcely any surgeons to serve. There are now four vacancies in the ranK of assistant eurgeon and there will be eight more during the year, and the hope is ex pressed that the corps will not be al lowed to die out from lack of recruits, which must follow unloss inducements are equal to those offered in the army at least. The surgeon general calls attention to the fact that of the eighty-four casualties during the wr with Spain only seventeen have resulted in pen sion applications so far a most note worthy fact in view of tho report that eighteen of the casualties resulted fatally. Iu concluding the report special at tention is invited to tho excellent sanitary conditions existing in the unvy, and especially in the Asiatic 'quadron during the last year. Early precautions wero taken to prevent as far as possible the lll-efTocts resulting from necessary climatic exposure and to give the best caro and attention to the sick. Tbo results in the Philip pines indicate a high standard of phy sical efficiency in the squadron. GRAVES OF THE GREAT. A Peep ml the Sepulchered Itemalos of Famous Men. The proposed opening of the Druce coffin in lllghgate cemetery, to deter mine who Is the true successor to th Dukedom of Portland, recalls the fate of many other coffin containing far more distinguished bodies. When Dean Farrar was at Westmin ster Abbey, a certain vault was opened and the coffin of (Catherine, the wife of Henry V., was exposed to view. "It had," said the Dean, "long been In a damp place, and It had no sooner been lifted out of the dark vault into the chapel above than It fell to pieces, and the body of the queen of Henry V lay before us. "I say 'the body.' for there was still some skin and tendon.? on part of it; but it was mainly a skeleton, and its enfolded cerements had crumbled into dust. Nothint? else was in the coffin except some fragments of cerecloth and the remains of the silk cushion on which the head hui rested." The body of Kdward the Confessot has been seen twice since It was burlcfl in 1CC3. Nearly a hundred years afti the burial Thomas a BecUet saw the face that long white beard of the king. Two hundred years after the burial Heary III. opened the cofFin and took from it the Confessor's famous ring, which is said to have belonged to St. John the evangelist. In 1771 the Society of Antiquaries opened the coffin of Edward 1. The gold cloth was still folded round colossal corpse and the cast In eyes was distinctly noticeable. the the Tht snow-white hair still remained. another king's coffin was opened In 1ST?. Henry IV. was burled iu 1413 iu Canterbury Cathedral. But the cof fin was opened in 1S32 to set at rest a great doubt. It was said that the body had been thrown Into the Thames and was not iu the Cathedral at all. "But," says Dean Farrar, "when the coffin was opened, there the king'3 body lay, and for the few seconds be fore the prominent features collapsed the few who were present saw 'the cankered Bollngbroke' as he looked in life or rather as he looked in death after that memorable scene in tht Jerusalem Chamber which Shakespeare has so pathetically described. The face was In complete preservation, and all the teeth but one were perfect." There Is a story that a lold West minster boy once crept into a vault in Westminster Abbey and through an aperture in the coffin laid his hand on the heart of the mighty Tudor Queen Elliabetb. George IV.,and the famous physician Sir Henry Walford, wishing to dis cover where Charles I. was burled, opened a grave which was between those of Henry VIII., and Lady Jane Seymour, at Windsor. When they opened It "there lay be fore them the handsome face, just a Vandyke depicted it; though (as al ways happens in such cases), the nose fell In immediately that the corpse was exposed to the open air. Then Sir Henry Walford took up by the hait the decapitated head and placed it on the palm of his hand which was cov ered by a silk handkerchief." Milton was buried In St. Giles, Crlp plegate, London, on November 12, 1674. In 1790 search was made for the body, and when found the authorities refused to disturb it. But one night a publican, a pawn broker, a surgeon and a cofllnraaker got into the church and opened the leaden shell. The puW -n pulled hard at the teeth and at last got one worked out by a Btone. These body snatchers felt strongly inclined to steal the whole lower jaw. and after pawing and hand ling the hallowed remains, these sac rileglous villains tore out some of the hair and stole some of the bones.

BRITISH FORCESJRE III DANGER. General Yule Finds It Necessary to Move further Away frorn Boer porces. Must Either Retire fort) Dundee or pace the Army Under General Joubert. Lonion, Oct. 2:i. The Ilritish military situation in Natal is exooed ingly grave. The latest rumor this evening is that General Yule, now at Dundoo, has decided to attempt to fall back on Ladysmith if tho railway be tween Glencoo and that place can bo secured, which is doubtful; otherwise tho Boor armies now converging on Yule's force from the Transvaal and Orango Free State, numbering, it is said, 11,000 men, will in all probalility overwhelm Yule's division. Ollicial dispatches wero received this-ovening from Generals Whito and Yule, but on consultation between cabinet members in the house of com mons it was decided to withhold them from the house. Tho equadron of Hussars and section of mounted infantry which pursued tho I'.oers after Glencoo battle, nro missing. A dispatch from Ladysmith, Natal, dated l:l" p. in. yesterday, has just been received. It is a literal repeti tion of Capotown-Gloneoo advices of yesterday and it is regared as some what omnious that nothing has tince been received, especially whon viewed in tho light of Lord Wolsoley's statement that General Yule's forces forces felt it necessary to retire from Dundee to Gloncoe J unction. General Yule evidently is in a tiyht corner, as ho now has or had to face tho main Boer army under General Joubert. Strlet l"reB Censorship. I'i oss censorship at the scat of hos-, tiiitios has become stricter than ever. Not a sinple newspaper dispatch was allowed to bo forwarded from tho front yesterday. Following is the telegram addressed to tho kaiser by Colonel Schiel, the Gorman officer who built the forts in Protoria and Johannesburg and who was captured by the British at F.lnnd- slaate: "To His Majesty, Emperor of Ber lin: German volunteers marching to tho frontier have sworn to bo loyal unto death to tho kindred of tho Ger man race. Wo deeply regret that the policy of the high government is un ablo to exercise its influence against England's predatory action. May German blood flow not in vain for froedom and justice and tho blessing of your majesty be with us. The loyalty of German soldiers will re main true to the friendship which your majesty himself has shown us. "Colonel Sciiiel." ltoers Open F ire On Dundee. London", Oct. 24. Tbo Daily News publishes a dispatch from Ladysmith, dated Sunday night: "A largo command of General Jou bert and und3r Commandant Vogan opened fire on Dundee yesterday. The firing was continued today." UeoeMl Yale Moves Hark. London, Oct. 24. The Daily Tele graph has received the following from Ladysmith, dated Sunday, 2.10 p. m. : "The Boere, reported to be 9.000 strong and under command of Com mandant, General Joubert and Presi- dont Krugor in person, aro today again attacking Glencoe. "General Yule, commanding our troops, has moved his camp back into a battor desensive position." Prepare 1'ablte for Hud New. A Pietormaritzburg dispatch says now that the censor permits no mes sage to be sent from tho front. Other dispatches represont tho Boers as boasting that Dundee is absolutely cut off and assert that despite the British victorios the situation is still uncer tain. The Pretoria dispatch giving tho re port of General Joubert to the govern ment evidently refers to tho first bat tle fit Glencoo and tho reasons why Commandant Erasmus failed to come to tho asistanco of Commandant Meyer cannot bo fathomed. If ho had done so tho British victory might have been still more dearly bought. It appears certain that the victory at Elandslaagte was produced for ef fect as a relief of Glencoe. and the very reticence and brevity of Lord Wolsoley's communications are only too ominous. They eeem to be worded to preparo tho public for bad news and it is only too likely that General Yulo has been compelled to abandon tho wounded and the prisoners at Dundee because his force is too weak to hold the four and a half miles separating Dundee from Gloncoe. Probably General Yule believes he can better protect Dundee from an enemy advancing from the northwest by concentrating all his available strength at GleDcoe, where there are now 3,500 men and three batteries. In the meantime efforts will be made to reopen tho railway and to get. rein forcements from Ladysmith. Wanted Good girl for general housework.. Good wages: no washing. Apply to Mrs. R.

Lake Titlcaca Is unique among the waters of the world, says Harper's Magazine. Its extent Is fourteen times that of the Lake of Geneva, and the level of Its surface Is 12.545 feet above the sea . Along Its eastern shore runs the main Cordillera, rising aloft at its southern end into the mighty Mount Sorata, whose broad expanding gla ciers seem to lift themselves like sil ver from the waves. Tho shores and Islands of the lake were who knows how long ago? the cradle of a re markable civilization, or even series of civilizations. Perhaps latest anions them was that of tho Inca tribe, which, ri-ilng in this place, spread northward over the hills and down a valley to Cuzco and thence stretched forth its conquering arm over a vast area whose exact limit can no longer be defined. The Inoas looked back to Titlcaca island as the sacred spot whence emerged their legendary found ers, Manco Capac and his consort, Mama Ocelo Huaco. The traveler on the waters or round the shores of ihe lake beholds many a monument of de parted greatness ; nd industrial pros perity. He feels that lie is looking upon histoiif ground and the dim gla mour of a well-nigh forgotten past sheds luster upon peaks and ranges doubtless mil ro. 1.1. -ii by human fo.H. but often travel m! by human eyes, and in whose' names yet "linger the fos silized faith and poetry of departed men.

The steamer in the past eight weeks has taken up over 5,000 bushels of starfish 'from the vicinity of the Mansfield beds at. Dayside. The oyster planters have recently adopted the plan of leaving the margin between the channel and the oysters and also between the beds, which enables the steamers to dredge, along the edge of the channel and between the oyster beds and capture the starfish before they get in the beds. The enormous catch of the Cleo, which has averaged 100 bushels per day. is carried daily to Warren, where It is mainly given to the farmers, who carry the fish away for fertilizing purposes. The starfish are not more plentiful than during for mer seasons, but the system of dredg ing along the margins of the beds has been productive of larger captures of the pests, and may in time practically exterminate them on sections occupied by oysters.
