The InsubordinatiOn Of the French
Private.
1.-THE Nineteenth Century,

The Nineteenth CenluTy.l
In war as well a. in peace the insubOrdi-
nation OF the French private is a matter OF
history; the lad who learns at school that
in France all men are equal finds il diff
cult. on Joining the service, 10 give that
implicit obedience TO his superior which
military discipline demands, the superior
oittimes fails TO demand it, and so laNity
springs up which eliminates I'm what we
should call mutiny. Soldiers appear I'm
garrison towns slovenly dressed, they
even reel about the streets drunk, and Off
GERS pass by unheeding. No wonder,
then, that ever and again the world is hor-
rified by soldier being sentenced 10 death
for INSTRUMENTATION. The fault rests not
so much with the men as with the system,
and II is no new thing. During the Aus
trian campaign Of 1906 some French Of
ficers were wounded by priyates OF their
own regiments in endeay0ring to restrain
them from plundering; in the campaign Of
1906, when Ney was advancing against
Magdeburg. one OF his aides-de-camp and
General Jomini had to defend themselves
with their swords against soldiers OF
News corps whom they discovered ma
rauding: later on in the same campaign,
prior TO the battle OF Preussisch Eylau,
similar scenes occurred, and II is said on
authority that no fewer than 10000 men
were then known to be marauding in the
neighborhOod OF the army. We have
abundant evidence from French sources
OF similar state OF things in 1870; officers
have openly stated that they have been
compelled TO shoot men down red-handed
in order even temporarily to restore obedi-
ence. and these summary executions were
sanctioned by a Government decree. That
the INSTRUMENTATION is not thing OF the past
l. evident from the fact that this year at least
two French soldiers have been sentenced
m death for disobedience accompanied by
characterization, and the many articles on
the subject which have appeared In service
napers show that the French officer Is alive
IN the danger. III reports as 10 the condi-
tion OF the French army are true, il would
seem 10 be generally acknowledged that in
suhordination Is oil the increase, and that
this increase is largely due TO the fact that
cornorals OF eight months service possess
the same powers OF punishment as were be-
slowed on non-commissioned officers OF that
Grade In the days OF long service, when a
man rarely got his stripes under ten years.
THE malicious use Of power by STEADY and
respected non-commissioned officers Is the
making. lust as its abuse by young and
inexperienced men Is the ruin, CT an army.
AT the present moment all things seem to
work together TO prevent the establish.
ment OF discipline In the French army. A
military code unsuited TO the times; supe-
rior officers uncertain OF the tenure Of their
appointments, with zeal deadeued within
them. non-commissioned officers drawn
from the lowest ranks and imbued with

A Young Lady's Remarkable Gin,


Norwich Conn Bulletin, December lstI
The sense OF absolute pitch, by which a
person is able TO name any note Of the mu-
steal scale which may be sounded, is one OF
great rarity. some interesting expert
ments were recently made with a young
lady Of this city who possesses this gift TO
a remarkable degree. The lady sat i'm a
distant part OF the room with her back TO
the piano. while a performer took his sta
ton AT the instrument. I'm the first place,
i'm order 10 produce a confusion OF tone and
deprive the lady OF any pitch which she
might be carrying in her mind rs basis
OF reckoning. the eXperimenter drew his
thum rapidly up and down the keyboard
two or three times, with the hampers raised
from the strings. When the noise had
subsidized he struck a single note at random,
when the lady promptly declared that it
was + fiat which was correct. After
she had been thoroughly tested on single
tones. without a single mistake. the pianist
went through a series Of complicated modu-
lations. and when he rested and inquired,
- In what key is this chOrdi" the response
came quickly, Sc" Although lacking the
technical knowledge OF harmony, and I'M
able to call every chord by name, she could
mention the component tones; as once, in
answer to the question, "Whst chord is
thiss" she replied, 81 don't know the
name OF it, but the notes are c sharp. h,
G.. aud b flat" which was correct. At a
public entertainment on one occasion. con-
yer,atiOn turning on this subject, the lady
said that the piece the orchestra were then
PLAYING was in the key OF ID. In order TO
test the correctness OF the statement gem
teman went TO the conductor At the conclu-
sion Of the piece and returned with the re-
ply that they had played in ID Hat. The
lady insisting on her accuracy, "A second
inquiry revealed the fact that the piano to
which the orchestra was tuned was a semi
tone below concert pitch. Her ability In
this direction Is entirely natural gift, and
not am acquired accomplishment.
