Father of Field Hospital Retires. Washington, D. C, April 11. Col. John Van ' Renssalaer Hoff, of the United States Army Medical t Corps, closed an active career of forty years In the army today, having been trans ferred to the retired list by operation or. law on account of age. Col. Hoff is known as the creator of the United States Field Hospital aa it exists in the army today. He Is .responsible also for much of the development in sanitation as a branch of medical sci ence. Col. Hoff is a native of New York state and entered the army soon alter the close of the civil war. . He was conspicuous for his services in the great army camps established dur Jng i the . war, with Spain. . ; Later He did duty as chief surgeon on Gen. 'Chaffee's Btaff, when the allied armies entered Peking during . the Boxer troubles. .In 1905 he represented the EDDYSTONE LIGHTHOUSE, Hi Manive Vartiosl Base Chocks the .':' Wildtct Seas. -'.'

In 1695, Henry Wlnstnnley built the Orst lighthouse, which lusted but eight years. Wiustunley's tower was swept awuy by a tremendous storm, and every one In it at the time, including the builder, was drowned. Three years later Rud rerd's tower was built, only to be de- ! stroyed by fire in 1755. and then came ' John Smeaton's. ; - . . a ' Modern lighthouses really date from ; 1759. when this third one was com : pleted. , Smeaton's design was faulty, but it served us n model for lighthouse j construction in nmsonry, which has . boon followed in Its general fentures ever since. This lighthouse stood for j oj-er a century, but Jt wna not bigh enough to keep the waves from dash . Ing the 'lantern and so was removed and the present one built In 1882 'by . James Douglass.: , ; ', At the time of the completion of the new lighthouse two bells weighing two tons each and struck by mechanical power were Installed for fog signal lug purposes. Since that date an ex plosive guncottou fog signal has been , erected, the bells being removed. Prob ably the most interesting thing nboui the lighthouse now on the Eddyslono . Is its solid vertical bnso. ,' Heavy sens striking the massive cylindrical struc ture are -immediately broken up and rush around to the opposite sfde, spray alone -ascending' to the height of the lantern gnllery. ' On the other hand, waves '-striking the old tower at its foundation ran up the surface, which presented n curved face to the waves, and, unimpeded by any projection un til arriving at the lantern gallery, were pnrtially broken up by the cornice and then spent themselves In heavy spray over the lantern, The shock to which the cornice of the gallery was exposed was so grent. thntones 'ere some times lifted from their beds.

Brilliant Emerald Hues Tint the Sky at Morn and Eve. In Egypt, where the atmosphere is very clear, the green tints of the sunset light are peculiarly distinct As the sun descends nearer and nearer to the horizon nud is immensely enlarged its rays suddeuly become for nn Instant of a brilliant green. Then a succession of green rays suffuses the sky well nigh to the zenith. i '; . ' ' ,The idine phenomenon occurs at sun rise, but less conspicuously. Some times at sunset, Just as the last portion of the sun's disk vanishes, its color changes from green to blue, and so also after it has disappeared the sky. near the horizon is green, while toward the zenith it is blue. , The fact was, of course, observed by the ancient Egyptians, and references thereto are found in their sacred writ ings. Day was the symbol of life and night that of death. The setting sup being identified i-wlth Uslrls. that god became king of the dead. T.he setting sun was green; therefore Osiris as the nocturnal deity of the dead was paint ed green; .-. The splendid coffins of the high priests of Amnion frequently depict the green sun, and the funeral deities are all colored green. . This association of death with green was undoubted ly due to the. green tints of the Egyp' tiMii sun nt sunset Youth's Coiripan" I'm. . ". : .'.;,.
