BADGER FIGHT IN SAVANNAH Was a Great Success—Man From Atlanta Drew the Ferocious Beast.

But they did not know the place. Mr. Loven ■t'ir, told thtm to meet him at the De Soto shortly after u o’clock, and he would condu.-t th tin with ail secrecy to the se-nv of th‘- li.fjeulty between the ferocious an imals. True to bis wor’ he was on hand at the app in*' > time. and found a crowd wilting to b- emiducted to the place sei* ted for the encounter. Strange to say, the presi- , dent of the local post conducted his follow ing ' > the M i.-oi.: • hall. He had thrown | the poll e off the scent by selecting the 1 place they had concluded be would be ‘ mo-t likely to let alone. Then, after everything had been gotten in readiness, the fight ■■ime off. The strug gle was short and decisive, *he badger get ting the best of it by long odds. He was a I very inoffensive looking animal, but he was equal to the enoengeney. and the dog was not in it. If any i ne was expecting to see an ex- i hibition of brutality between the- terrible ba iger and the'bull dog hi was disappoint ed, Lei-.i ise the dog suffered defeat easily and with a good grace. In fact, the only one hint at all, and this Was but slightly, wa- Mt. Hollingsworth, of Atlanta. He pulled tin rope that drew the badger from his box into the arena, about which 300 drummers were sitting and standing. He had been dir- -ted to get out of the way as soon as he pulled the rope, and as the bad- | ger was one of the worst Mt xico had ever turn*. 1 out. .Mr. Loverstein vouched for tin fero dt.y of the beast. and advised Mr. Hollingsworth to ge t behind two or three rows of ehairs as soon as he had given the rope a. good hard tug. The puller of the rope promised faithfully to carry out all instruct ions, and he did so very well. He would nave escaped without any damage at all to his shins if he had net been so precipitate in his flight. The badger did , no' pursue him. hut lie thought lie was right oti ills track. He was very brave in puliing the tope, a Job for which no other disiuteri sted parry would volunteer. .' number of the others had bets on the re sult. and they would not allow any except I a disinterested party to have the handling ot the deg or the badger. As th*> badger did not try to turn him self loose on Mr. Hollingsworth, who so valiant!;, .jerked him forth, he is being < “‘badg :;d" on the sore shins he received • in his flight for safety.

These are embodied .n the words at-ove and below its Hag, ‘Humanity and Neutrality.’ Do in duty all that comes to you as a trained nurse, but there is a st.l‘l higher filing In a time like this when a great tv.-.; t-irrattiis whith only a woman can give are .vhat humanity de mands of you. , "If the soldier under your charge shall lie it viil be your duty to send messag-.s .o those at home; your sacred trust to gui.ri bi- little mem.ntoes till you can transmit them to his friends.” By this half the women in the room were A!--ping. The tears only flowed the faster as the speaker went on. "I call this the ethics of humanity—the great regard for the patient because he is a human being and a child of God. Great bi* -mess has been created by the barbari ty cf the war in Cuba waged by the Span ish soldiers. The bitterness has been very much deepened by thft destruction of the Maine and 266 non-combatants without any reason. "You must not cultivate this feeling. You must know, a Spaniard as you do an American. You, as a Red Cross nurse, are bound to care for him as for a brother of your own household. You must not in timate by word or look that ae is a for eigner or alien.” Dr. George F. Shrady, (while giving in structions for field work, painted its hor rors with a realism that made many a cheek turn pale. “A visit to She battle field after the bat tle,” said he, “produces a mental impres sion which you can scarecly conceive— dead, dying wounded and suffering spread out before you in away you will hardly believe possible.” Transportation of the wounded on impro vised stretchers, the pressure of a finger to arrest a hemorrhage, ‘where pints and quarts of blood are often lost:’ the bandage and compress to follow; positions of in jured limbs and how to make the yatient comfortable, these were among the sug gestions. “When suffering from shock their great cry will be 'Water! ".rater-’ ” said the doc tor. "Never refuse it. Demember, it may be the last. Let him d’ie easy,” and the ■women’s tears flowed afresh. "It is needless to tell you to have all sympathy. They talk of what good the woman doctor can do, but next to being the nest bird at home a.woman’s grandest mis sion is as a nurse. To quote Oliver Wen dell Holmes, “She enters a nurse and comes out an angel.’ ” He specially hade them keep up the pluck of the patient. ‘Write to bis frietrds, smooth his brow as only a woman can.” The doctor closed by saying that he was twenty-two when he entered the service as surgeon during the civil war, and, if need be, he 'fe'lt ready .for the service again. "All those who are still desirous of en listing,” cried Mrs. Bettina Hofker Les ser, "will reman.” Several left before her final talk on dress and other requirements. Eight nurses were vaccinated and caution ed to be ready at a moment's notice. "No one can look into your faces,” was Mr. Wardell’s parting benediction, "without profound respect for the feeling that has inspired you. I can only trust that he in whose hands are the destinies of nations may watch over you. and when the white banner of peace floats over our land again, may restore you to your homes CASTORIA For Infants and Children th* f*e- sisiie z/CTT” « « -.ifiaturr / aw?
