Cavalry ia tho Next War.
One of the most important feat
ures of the next war will be th em
ployment of large masses of cavalry
in advance of the hostile armies.
For the purposes of entering the
enemy's country and hindering his
plans of mobilization and concen
tration, screening the advance of
friendly forces, and obtaining in
formation as to the movements and
purposes of the enemy, Independent
cavalry divisions have been organ
ized in all modern armies.
It is indeed true that the employ-J
ment of cavalry upon the service of
exploration is no new thing, for
Napoleon's cavalry operations are
among the most famous of his mili
tary explpits; buj during the long
peace that followed his wars the
training of that arm was neglected,
and its gre.tt services forgotten. It,
therefore, happened that in the war
of 1866 no proper system of recon-
noissance was carried out, and on
the very eve of the battle of Konig-
gratz, when the . outposts of the op
posing armies wjere less than five
miles distaut from one another,
neither suspected the near and con
centrated presence of the other.
Although in the war of 1870 the
German cavalry played an impor
tant part, it use in advance of the
army was the outcome of experience
gained in the earlier part of the
campaign, especially after the battle
of Woerth, when the failure of tiie
cavalry to act with boldness allowed
the .French Army to' reach the
Vosges passes without being pur
eued From this time forward the

Ivhich attended it was to a
great extent due to the utter failure
of the French to checkmate the
i 1 : 1
enemy.
Thefce lesson 8 have

and it is bow clearly recognizerit'raH
the use of ealvary in advance Of
armies is of the greatest importance.
By its greater mobility it can. enter
the enemy '8 country within a few
hours of the declaration of war, and
before tho concentration of other
troops can be carried out. Its first
duty will be to hamper the mobili
zation of the l.ostile forces, and for
this purpose it maybe here remark
ed that Russia keeps '30,000 horse
men constantly on the frontier of
Poland. Its next great object will
be to find the enemy's camps and
marching columns, and ee-nstantly
keep tho Commauder ia Chief in
formed of his whereabouts and
movements; for, as Frederick the
Great says, if one couM be always
acquainted with the wemy's designs
beforehand, one would always beat
him, even with an inferior force.
The employment of horse artillery
divisions is important, and in some
operations the assistance of guns
would be absolutely necessary, as,
for inaistance, when detachments of
the enemy occupy a farm or defile.
In such a case a small body might
de-lay the advance of calvary for a
considerable period, -whereas a few
shells "would be sufficient to drive it
from its stronghold. On the line of
march also columns of the enemy
would be obliged to halt and deploy
under fire of a few guns, and artil
lery can delay the advance of troops
over ground upon which calvalry
could not be deployed.
As in the next campaign similar
masses of calvary will be advanced
by both sides, and pushed boldly
forward with the same object in
view, calvary engagements on a
large scale may be expected before
the hostile armies can arrive upon
the scene of action. Upon the issue
of the struggle between these bodies
of horsemen much will depend, for
the side that prevails will be able to
gain information respecting the en
emy, hamper, his movements, and
cover the advance of the army in
the rear. That one side will obtain
so decisive a superiority is, however
doubtful, for where large massses
are engaged on a wide front defeat
at one point may be counterbalanced
by victory at another, and in any
case it is certain that even the vic
torious side would advance under
difficult conditions. '
When the hostile armies have clos
ed in. and the advanced, calvary
clears away from between them, its
task will not then be at an end; for
whether advancing to meet an ene
my making an offensive movement,
reconnoitring a force in camp, hang
ing on a column on tne line oi
march, or pursuing a retreating
army, its work will be constant
whilo the campaign lasts. Pall

To Boild a House on Wheels.
A gentleman whose inventions
have exerted an immense influence
on the development of cycles and
motor cars, and who occupies a
prominent place in the commercial
circles chiefly interested in them, is
building, or has taken all the steps
preparatory to building, a two-story
house which is to run upon wheels
and be capable of being propelled by
a motor underneath it.
There is no reason at all, this
gentleman considers, why all houses
should not be built, with references
to the desirability of an occasional
change of site, and now motor en
gines have been abu ndantly proved
to be effective for the propulsion of
carriages, he means to show that it
would be just as easy to move a
house as an omnibus.. He is planning
his four-roomed house with a frame
work of steel tubes, and with a col

rapidity, and that it presents on the

otTj-'s why it is more rapid rests on
the fact the length of each of the
letterj is much less when they are
made upright than when they are
made slanting. Attention is called
to the fact, that the letters on a prin

natural and less fatiguing posture

Whales Around Their Boat.
Two men in a rowboat fought for
tlreir.lives amid a school of ten
w"hales Monday off Newport Beach
near Los Angeles. The men were
Ottley Papinean and 'James Rey
nolds of Riverside. They were camp
ing at Newport, and had gone out
for a fishing trip in a rowboat. Hav
ing .found a good fishing ground
they were pulling in yellow tail and
barracouda rapidly, when suddenly
what appeared to be an island arose
from the water alongside the boat.
The swell nearly capsized the lit
tle cftft,'and.the terror-stricken men
fell to bailing her out, realizing as
they , worked that they had had -a
visit from a whale. No sooner had
they emptied the boat of water than
they had a similar experience on the
other side, and this time a sweep of
a whale's tail nearly shivered their
boat.
All about them soon were whales,
sponting water over the . sportsmen,
toying dangerously with their boat,
and ; having lots of fun. The great
creatures were apparently in a good
natured mood for they resented no
familiarity, such as having the men
poke them with an oar to push the
boat from too close proximity.
They showed a most distressing
curiosity about the little vessel and
its contents, however, and the shouts
of the men had no effect toward
driving them away.
For half an hour the two River
siders, expecting each moment to be
killed by a smash from the tail of
the mammoth animals, manoeuvred
about, trying to escape, but no
sooner did they pull a few hundred
feet away than the whales followed
and the contest commenced anew.
The men kept fiantically working
for Rhore, and at last got so close
that the whales gave up the chase.
At times during the adventure
the occupants cf the boat could
have touched the whales with their
hands, and the big ocean denizens
appeared to take a mischievous de
light in-spouting water all over the
hapless mariners.
When the men reached shore they
were very much exhausted, and
were bruised all over as a result of
being thrown about in their boat.

little'difEerence, but it is probable
that the real number is much small
er than ia usually supposed. Even
when a thief's antecedent career is
best known it is common that in th
long list of his convictions interval
of years occur, which cannot plausi
bly be explained by a temporary
lapse into honesty. Eiiher he hap
been carrying on his depredations
undetected, or he has been sa-rvinj'
in prison under some other name.
Everyone, too, knows how a ser e
of email crimes will go on f .r some
time in a particular dist lie.r, for
some montns tiiopa are purerea
houses broken into, without, tin
criminal being caught, and ihei
suddenly there is an end. iiiit,no
doubt, is some times due meuly to
the housebreaker's operations, be
ing removed to another theatre, but
it is equally likely that the undetect
ed operator has been caugnt per
haps at a considerable distance
and no evidence is forthcoming, to
connect. him with more than a single
crime. Contemporary Review.

Has Harvey Lost Faith.
Mr. Wm. H, Harvey is being sub
jected to some criticism and a good
deal of ridicule on account of a re
cent performance of his.
Mr. Harvey is, or rather was,
known to fame as the author of
"Coin's Financial School" in which
he stoutly contends that under free
coinage our siler dollar would be
worth as much as it is now that
it as much as a gold dollar.
Mr. Harvey happened to have $2
500 in the Metropolitan National
bank of Chicago, lie applied for it
a few days ago and insisted that it
should be paid in eold. The bank-
was not required to pay depositors
in gold but Harvey was so obstrepor
ous that $2,500 in gold was handed
over to him. He took the money at
once to the First National bank of
Chicago and locked it in his private
box in the safe deposit department
of that institution.
After Mr. Harvey's many denun
ciations of gold and his frequent
glorifications of silver this incident
was peculiar, to Bay the least of it.
