Tho circular per day roy claiming credit ifor that prosperity, which was really the merciful gift of God. But something must be dene, the institutions founded by the fathers on the purest principlos of liberty. Justice and righteousness were not so dear to thetn as to overcome their lust for gain on any apecious pretense. There was Spain, 'helpless from centuries of nusgovern meut, an 'easy prey, hut the conspirators masked their rascally purposes in the guise of ''humanity." How hollow and false, this was was shown. by their absolute callousness to the suffering and death of thousands of their own countrymen called into the field by tham, the bravest and noblest that ever responded to what they believed to be a patriotic call.

And now, after having robbed Spain of her possessions by force, they still hold a pistol to her head and demand that she shall ratify her own robbery by a treaty of peace. If there is a drop of patriotic blood In the veins of the Spaniards they will never do rather will they let the villains do their worst. Soon the conscience of this people will awake and these men will be driven from power w'th the execrations of anything to cook, then most of the boys flung 'em away. But I kept mine as a soovy noor, like as if it was a valentine from the Secretary of War. You'd like to see it? Well, I haven't got it with me, but here's a few of the things I copied out of it.

When finished, must not be too thick, and servo with toast fried crisp in cottolene. The Medical Department will supply the chestnuts. Sandwiches made from cold canned beef Chop cold cooked beef very fine; to each pint add a teaspoonful of rait, a tahlespoonful of capers, a teaspoonful of chopped mint, a dash of pepper and a tahlespoonful of lemon juice.

Carpenter, i I oiiivsioi i nt; the trustees of church, and Hsbbit Wiegssr The Failure to Supply All Our Soldiers With This Priceless Work Is Believed to Have Been the Main. Cause of Illness in the Military Camps Soldiers Who Pooled Thermometers and Shamefully Deceived Sharp Eyed Women. Careful readers of the testimony elicited by the war investigating commission must have observed that a number of witnesses were asked this seemingly unimportant question: "Have you ever seen a copy of the Army Cook Book?" Almost invariably the answer has been in the negative. And with tSiis reply the in vestlgators have eeemd consent, for wit nesses were immediately questioned along another line of inquiry. One who has kept in touch with the investigation has this to say explanation of the inquiries made concerning the Army Book: "Some of the members of the war intvesM gattag commission believe thait they have discovered fee main cause of the unhealthy condition of the soldiers who suffered in the military camps.

They are of the Arm opinion that a vast amount of illness was due the fact that many of the volunteer regiments were not supplied with the Army Cook Book, to which General Beaver, Dr. Connor and ex Governor Woodbury have repeatedly referred when questioning witnesses. These commissioners do no: agree with Sec retary Alger in his statement tliat most of the deaths in the Array were due to the al'leged fact that sick soldiers were overfed with delicacies. It is true that Dr. Porwood testified that chets from Delmonico's and the Waldorf Astoria were employed at Camp Thomas and that the larders a.t that ideal hea'uh re BOTt were' crammed full wxh roast turkey, pheasants, squabs, lamb, pate de foie gras, champagnes and brandies; that Apoilinaris was so plentiful nurses received a case when they asked for a bottle.

But the testimony of members of the Women's Relief Corps to the effect thai; they had to supply food, clothing and medicines to numbers of neglected soldiers has made the testimony of Dr. For wood and Secretary Alger's declarations appear ridiculous. And so the members of the war commission to whom I refer have fallen back the support of the theory tbat the failure to supply all our soldiers with the Army Cook Book was the main cause of most of their troubles. If the boys had known how to cook their food properly there would have been comparatively little need for hos piods." Who was responsible for the Army Oook Books? I am informed that the "War Department, long before the outbreak of hostilties, foresaw the necessity for the use of these books. But it was not until war broke out that the government presses were set to work on the books.

It 'is a fact that they were kept running nigh: and day, and "bookbinders were employed from early morning until far into the night, but several valuable weeks of time had been used up In printing Surgeon General Sternberg's "Medical Instructions to Soldiers," those instructions in which soldiers with but one pair of shoes and one regulation uniform, were advised to change their clothes and shoes whenever they gc wet; and were told to drink no water unless It should be boiled, although no provision had been made by the government for boiling water. It is hut fair to Secretary Alger to say that it was no': his fault that the Army Cook Book was not ready for use so soon as the soldiers were first assembled in camp. He did all in his grower to secure prompc pub lication of a work which we now know is in valuable. A veteran Washington correspondent Informs me that the Secretary sat up ail of one night reading the first proofs of the book, and writing into them various instruc tions for the making cf delicious soups, appetizing roasts, delightful croquettes, and a variety of delicacies. All these out of the regular army ration of adamantine biscuit, rancid bacon, boiled beans, canned beef and unsweetened coffee.

I trusc that I am not "betraying confidence or doing any violence to Secretary Alger's almost abnormal sense of modesty, when I make public tie name the author of the Army Cook Book. The author cf fhat peerless work is Secretary Alger himself. Yet only public occasion on whicn he ventured to even suggest that he tad. any hand in the authorship of this great work, stamped on every page with ihe imprint of genius, was when he quietly remarked, after hearing President McKinley's war message to Congress read: "I do not care who may Presidential messages, so long as I am permitted to wrRe the Cook Book of our Army." "What became of tihe Army Cook Books?" "That Is" a question which the war investigating commission will deal With later, when they have learned just how many regiments were unsupplied with these interesting hooks. When the commission shall arrive at this point of their Investigations it may aid them some to recall the following conversation which I had with a private of the Fourteenth Regiment.

"Do you know whac became of the Army Cook Books sent to your regiment?" I asked. "Naw; I never seen one myself, but my chum, Private Haines, said he saw a lot of 'em stacked up in the regimental barber's shop and he believed that the barber used a handful of their leaves every time ho shaved a man. Another member of my company said he thought that the officers used the leaves for cigar lighters and the men used 'em for kindlia' fires. But I don't believe the men would have done this if they had known that Secretary Alger wrote the hook." "Why not?" I queried. The soldier paused for a moment and looked as if surprised at the question, then remarked, dryly: "I guess you don't know how dearly us soldiers love the Secretary of War." Since the War Investigating Commission elicited testimony the other day to the effect that many of the soldiers at Montauk Point who received food, medicine and assistance from the Women's Relief Corps simply shammed illness, emaciation and high temperatures, I have been disposed to regard some statements made by soldiers with suspicion.

For if a man can run his pulse beats up to 100 a minute and his temperature up to 105; if he can contract the flesh on his body until he seems like a skeleton; can transform the white or his eyes to yellow at will, and can not only fooi a sharp eyed woman, but a clinic thermometer as well, then It may be easy to deceive the writer of this column. Therefore, In presenting the following conversation, had with a discharged soldier, I do not vouch for all that he says. I asked my soidler friend If he had seen the Army Cook Book, and he replied, with an inexplicable grin: "Of course. We all had one until we hadn't "At your land's Baking Powder, CI eve Church Services Held in All Parts of the Borough. THEATERS DO BIG BUSINESS.

Inmates of tlie Penitentiary and Other Public Institutions Made Happy for the Day by the Kindness of Those in Charge Little Business Transacted Even hy the Pew Stores Which Be mained Open. Thanksgiving day was quietly observed in Brooklyn. Special services were aimost universal among the churches, all denominations honoring the day, the observauce being more marked than usual. Churches representing various denominations worshiped together, a. i many as ten uniting in several instances.

Sermons of a patriotic nature were the ruie, with special reference to the late war. Dr. Abbott had a large audience to listen to his eermoa on "Tho Present Xarional Problem." Dr. Soprs preache(J a sermon poinUng (JUt that Cor lvhich lQ his mind tne people 6hould be anrt in thp Ppshvterian Church the Rev. L.

il. Clark preached a short sermon, the service being made attractive by special music. Specially noteworthy sermons were delivered by the Rev. Dr. Lindsay Parker in St.

Peter's P. B. Church, the Rev. Dr. R.

B. Hull at the union service of a number of churched on the Hill, the Rev, J. Douglas Adam in the Reformed Church on the Heights, and many others. An interesting service was held in Hanson Place M. B.

Church, at which two navy chaplains and the pastor Dr Goodelli spoke. Brle repons oI these services are given elsewhere. The theaters drew large crowds both afternoon and evening, despite the disagreeable weather, the attendance at the Columbia, the Montauk and the Academy being exceptionally large even for a holiday. Little business was transacted, even by the small stores, and except during the hours given up to going to and returning from church and the theater, the streets were prac tically deserted. The foot "ball match, which was to have taken place at Washington Park, was called off on account of the weather.

It will be played to morrow. The customary entertainments were given at the various institutions. At the Kings County Penitentiary the ruies were somewhat relaxed in accordance with the usual custom. The convicts were given a turkey dinner, which was supplemented by an excellent concert, in which the following took part: George Beag.ey, L. Springer, James A.

Riff, Miss Helen Stuisberg, George W. Decker, Miss Loretta Tappan Greene, Harry M. Peckham, Fannie Mead, Edward B. Campbell, Miss Florence M. Hall, Miss Angela McDermott, Miss Julia Eagleston, Miss May Eagleston, C.

At the Floating Bethel, foot of Joralemon street, 350 merchant sailors were treated to a turkey supper, thirty three turkeys of heavyweight with pumpkin pies in plenty being served to the men. An entertainment was furnished by the Misses Few, duettists; Mr. Muchmore, comic singer, and Miss Law. AV. E.

True sdell delivered an address. The affair was in charge of Captain H. L. Meek e'' At Kings County Hospital a Thanksgiv ing dinner was provided for all who were well enough to partake, and a service of song was conducted by Mrs. Thompson of the City Mission.

At the Almshouse a musical entertainment was given under the direction of Superintendent Eaniel Madden, and a generous dinner was provided for the inmates. Deputy Commissioner of Charities Quinn was the principal guest. He later paid a visit to the nursery, where special provision had been made for the entertainment of the children. The children of tho Eastern District Indus trial School at South Third street were given i a good time. At noon they marched into the i new extension, where patriotic hvmns were sung, and recitations and songs were given by some of the 'boys and girls.

Short addresses were made by Miss M. E. Whittlesey, superintendent of the home; the Rev. rr. John D.

Weils, pastor of the South Third Stro Presbyterian Church, and the Rev. Dr. Coleman Adams, pastor of All Souls' Univer salist Church. An excellent dinner was also provided for I the inmates of the Long Island State Hospital. Superintendent Elliott, who had charge of tho i arrangements, took special pains to give ail the inmates cause for thanksgiving and succeeded.

Among the her institutions which had special entertainment for the Inmates were the Orphanage of the Church Charity Foundation, St. John's Roman Cath one Orphan Asylum, the Protestant Orphan Asylum, in Kingston avenue, and the Howard Home lor uoiorea urpnans, THE YEAR'S RECORD.

J. Clarence Jones, said the service was one more of vor ship and thanksgiving than of preaching, and he, therefore, took for the subject of his re marks the words, "Give thanks unto the Lord, which, he said, could be found in so. many Darts of the scrintures that he wr.n'ri not assign them to any particular portion of the book. There was special cause for thanksgiving this year on account of the plentiful harvests and for the general prosperity that, attended the country, and also for the termination of the war with Spain, which, however much it might be deplored for the suffering it had entailed, had been begun and ended in the remarkably short, space of 100 days. One of its beneficial results, however imperfectly It might be understood by many, was that which would accrue from the "open door." Another cause for thanksgiving was the decision of the people at the recent, elections in favor of honest money.

It would restore confidence in the commercial world and give an impetus to trade.

Washington, D. November 25 The annual report of fhe Secretary of the Interior was made public to day. In it, the operations for the past year of the general land office, the departments of Indiaa affairs, pensions, patents, education, railroads aad the territories are given in detail, and, apart from the excellence of the statistical portion i of the report, much interesting information is furnished. Secretary Bliss states that of the available desert lands 71,500,000 might be made available for farming by means of irrigation, but that acres could no: be served by the necessary water supply, leaving them suitable for grazing purposes only. The area of the t'airty forest reservations is said to be 40,719,474 acres.

In regard to Indian affairs the report says: "The progress of the Indians during the past year, in civiliza aon as well as education, has been gradual, though substantial. There iias been but one disturbance or outbreak of a serious character, and that was among the Chippewa Indians of Minnesota. jt of very recent occurrence, however. and happily has been suppressed. "The population of tie Indians, exclusive of those in 'the State of New York and of those in the live civilized tribes, may be stated to be.

approximate. that or r.ne New loric tnciians, ana or the five civilized tribes, including 17,457 freedmen, as 77,018. "The policy heretofore inaugurated of extending to the Indians every facility tending to make them an independent and self supporting class has been continued. The acceptance by many Indians of the opportunities thus presented to put themselves in a position to acquire a knowledge of farming the trades and other useful occupations, by means of which they can compete with the white man, has proved the wisdom of such course. "During the year there were employed 1,512 Indians in the agency service proper as herd ers, teamsters, harues3makers, clerks, shoe makers, butchers, blacksmiths and kindred occiipations.

to whom were paid salaries ag aggregating and in the Indian school service there were employed for the work of nurses, matrons, clerks, cocks, bak ers, laundresses, industrial anu otner teachers, usually as assistants, but occasionally at the head of the respective departments, receiving salaries ranging from $36 to $900 per annum and aggregating $277,562." Details of the trouble with the Indians at Leech Lake arc given, but they do not differ the tf 7 Vonsnea in tne newspapers 11 It fs reported that there are 535.000 claims for pensions pending, and announcement is made of the organization of a separate divis ion for the adjudication of claims growing out or the war witn Spain. Jtne secretary or tne Interior continues as follows: "The Commissioner calls attention to the fact that since the passage of the general pension law of July 14, many laws, general and special, and many rulings and decisions interpreting the laws, have been rendered, until the system Is a complex network of laws rtnd legal opinions, and recommends the appointment of a commission to revise the pension laws and regulations governing the granting of pensions, in order to secure reliable, intelligent and uniform practice in the futUTe. In this recommendation I concur." An increase of over a quarter of a million of school pupils in the United States Tor the fiscal year 1806 1807 ovc.r the previous year is reported, but yet the total average amount of schooling per individual for the whole United States measured by the present standard does not quite equal five year3 of two hundred days each for each inhabitant. The total number of school pupils in the, country, in elementary public and private schools, colleges, universities, high schools and academies Is placet! at 16, 003. In discussing the condition of affairs in Alaska the Secretary calls attention to Governor Brady's report, which states that smuggling prevails and saloons are wl'dc open in all the towns and mining camps.

The application to Alaska of the liquor laws in force In the District of Columbia, with several minor modifications, is urged. The governor believes that Alaska should and can pay revenue into the United States Treasury. Under a high license law he estimates that the liquor traffic would an annual revenue of not less than a tax of a few cents on a case of salmon would produce from $35,040 to 10 cents a ton on wharfage collected in tho las: year would have yielded $100,000. He recommends, however, that any system of taxation for the territory be deferred until land laws shall have been provided. Many sections of Alaska, it is shown, are suita.ble for agricultural purposes.

With proper care cattle can be raised in he milder districts, JUOM A XITTLE READER.
