A New Pear.

A correspondent Of the Evening News

pear that promises to be rival of the ia

acres within a hundred miles Of Loacha-

uon OF the country all around. A pur.

GERMAN ARMY OFFICERS.
How Their Work Compares with
That of English Officers.

COrTeSpoadenoe of the London Times.
The German officers are remarkably
smart looking, we'll turned out men, and,
as a rule, OF very good physique. In 10y
atty to their sovereign and devotion to
duty that have no superiors and few
equals. They perform many of the duties
which in our army devOVe upon nom
commissioned officers, and perform them
with zeal and perfect knowledge OF their
work. The drilling OF recruits and the
training OF men and horses Is carried out
by selected non-commissiOned officers
euperintended by selected Lieutenant
instructor, under the general supervision
of the Captain. Neither the battalion
commander nor the regimental comman-
der interferes with the company chief, eX
cept that sometimes the Colonel or Major
may give a private word OF counsel to a
Captain who is thought not to be pro-
| ceeding judiciously. Practically, how
ever, the Captain is left to himself and
judged by results. The inspection of re-
cruits in the infantry takes place u or ID
weeks after joining, aud il satisfactory
they are treated for the future as duty
men," In short, the Captain Of a Ger
man company performs many of the du-
ties and possesses much of Ehe power OF
battalion commander in tue English
army, and is called Captain, or "'Riti-
notwithstanding as he Is in the imam

went through barrack room and found
that each bedstead had two layers, as it
were, one bed above another; but the
number OF men in the room was not ex-
cessive. The bedding was not rolled up,
and the kit was placed in a little cup
board, each man having one. 1t was not

each squadron goes round the stables and
the barrack rooms about twice week,
but that there is no stable" In our sense
of the word, and no regular fixed daily
inspection of barrack rooms.
