Admis- sion will be by invitation only. Miss Emilie Nattans and Miss May J. Kaufman have left the city for a stay of several weeks to visit relatives and friends in New York city.

Dr. Sheldon Jackson, genera! agent of education for Alaska, is en route home, | after making his annual trip of inspection and forwarding the work of importing Alaskan reindeer into Siberia. A communi- cation has been received at the Interior De- paruneat reporting his arrival in San Fran- cisco and reviewing the season’s work in Siberia, It indicates that the Laps, a col- ory of whom has just been brotght to the reindeer station, have already shown their superior skill over the Siberians In hand- lng reindeer, During August 118 head of deer were taken from the herd and given to the Congregational mission at Cape Prince of Wales as the nucleus of a second herd. Arrangements have also been made to loan after next month 100 head to natives named Antesilook Soonawhaste, iziksic, Koktowak and Iuppuk for five years. When the contract expires 100 head of deer will be returned to the government and the increase remain private property of the Eskimos caring for them. This third herd is the first step made toward giving the Eskimos a personal interest in the en- terprise. Urgent requests have been made to the government by miners and traders in the Alaskan Interior for reindeer teams for transportation purposes. Nearly all the mines now being worked and the larger number now being discovered in the inte rior are on small streams. The Yukon river steamers bring supplies to the mouths of these streams, whence they are taken to mines by small boats or sleds and dog teams. On Forty Mile creek sufficient dog teams cannot be procured to provide the necessary transportation of supplies, and there is a growing need for reindeer trans- portation. With the new mines and more general prospecting of the new sections the need of trained reindeer is deemed more urgent. WEATHER BUREAU WARNINGS, Vessels and Their Value Believed to Have Been Saved by Them. The Agricultural Department has issued a statement showing that during the storm of September 24-29 1,089 vessels, valued at $17,100,000, and in the storm of October 8-10 1,216 vessels, valued at $19,183,000, re- mained fn port on the Atlantic and Gulf coasts, secure from danger, throughout the periods for which warnings were issued by the weather bureau. This makes a total of 305 vessels, valued at $ 000, a large proportion of which, probably, would have gone out but for the warnings. It is fair to assume, it is stated, that had they done so nearly all of them would have encountered the storms and been more or less damaged, if not entirely lost. The records of those who went out in face of the warning show that In every instance they suffered severe injury or were destroyed. Reports from the region traversed by the storm give the warnings credit for saving a large number of lives, one station alone— Charleston—reporting over 100 lives prob- ably saved by this means, = Work Under the Assessment Act. The Commissioners have decided to do the following work under the assessment act: Paving alleys--Square 218, all alleys in square, except 15-foot alley running from center of square south to I street, to be paved with sheet asphalt or asphalt blocks; estimated cost, $3,000, Setting blue-stone curb on M street ex- tended between 12th street and Trinidad avenue; estimated cost, $560.

All lots abutting upon improve- ments will be subject to assessment for one- half the cos! HEALTH OF THE ARMY. Facts From the A) al Report of jurgeon General Sternberg. Surgeon General Sternberg, in his annual report to the Secretary of War, gives some interesting details in regard to the health of the army during the past fiscal year, Relief was afforded under the appropria: tion for Providence Hospital, Washington, to 1,051 destitute patients. The a number treated daily was 104, and the av- erage number of days’ treatment per was 36. The surgeon general makes an argument the wisdom of recent legislation reducing the number of officerd in the medica! department, and expressed the opinion that the service would be ben- efited by restoring the medical department to its former status. He says he takes pleasure in reporting the successful establishment of the army medical school at Washington, without extra expense to the government, and says that the schor has made very favorable progress. He indorses the recommendation of Col. Alden, president of the faculty, that the examinations of student officers at the close of the session be taken into consid- eration in determining relative rank. The nealth of the army differed but little during the year from that shown by the best of our medical records.
