As to your winter underclothip take

In the last number OF the Jour
nal Of the United States CaVairy
Association is an article by Lieu
tenant Frederick y. Foltz, OF tho lst
Cavalry, on "Germsn Ideas on Cavalry"
Prince Kraft do Hohnenlohe- Ing efingen,
general OF infantry, and aid d-de-camp, on
the staff OF the Emperor OF Germany, has
published q book entitled "ConveYsations
on Cavalry" which 10 faithful record OF
conversations of the author with q certain
mysterious parsonage described Al cavalry
officer OF the highest rank and OF the
greatest experience. This book OF 400 pages
has been deemed OF great importance by
military men abroad, and Lieutenant Foltz
notes as an evidence OF the intense interest
In the preparation for war that such work
should not only bo brought out, but should
lind immediate translation into French. 1t
seems that in another work the prince had
praised the German cavalry, and In these
conversations 1t IL sharply criticised.
"True, the Uhlan was the terror OF all
France, but rs the French cavalry was still
more badly handled than our own, that Is
saying little" The magnificent charges of
the German and French cavalry often
ended In q melee, the opposing masses
penetrating one another and fighting
hand to hand. The critic remarks
that Frederick the Great discouraged loose
attacks because they led to the "melee,"
aud added ~ want no melees tho cavalry
should charge Ia wall" In short, this
unknown offlcer makes 1t quite plain that In
this aim at least neither Germans nor
French had the ak Ill Of their grandfathers.
In seventeen pages OF the magazine Lieu.
tenant Foltz has given the pith of the 400.
page volume, but 1t 10 largely technical In
character, though having many points OF
general interest For example, the mar
tingsle Is condemned except for HAT racing,
and nose bands on brides are recommended
as preventing the horse from opening his
mouth wide enough to get his tongue over
the bit
There is an interesting foot note with re.
lation TO Seydlitz, Fraderick's famous
cavalry commander. He placed his un-
certain men In the front rank with the
veterans behind them to urge them on II
they did not charge squsrely by tickling
them with their ssbres. He appears to
have bad an obstinate streak In him, for
when ordered at Zorndorf to charge before
he thought the proper time had arrived.
he refused and, when Frederick threat.
ened him with the loss OF his head, he re.
piled AFTER the battle his head was at
the disposal OF his sovereign, but that dur
ing the action he insisted on using 1t In the
interest OF the King"

Not aS II Seems.

The Ner Era suggests that the Demo-
cratic party, as much as the Republican,
needs the protection Of the law to
secure its primary elections against
frauds and 1t takes as its text
the fact that, though there was
no election held at Strickler's School
House for delegates to the late Demo-
cratic county convention, representa-
tives of that district appeared In the
convention with credentials stating
that they had been chosen at an
election duly held. And on the
face of it, this seems to be point
we'll made. But it loses its force when
it is known that there were but nine
votes for Black at this poll at the last
gubernatorial election, and but seven for
the local candidates on the Demo-
cratic ticket. There are 80 few Demo-
Gratis in the district that it Is not worth
while for them TO hold q primary
election. Any Of them who can come
TO town on convention day are considered
to be delegates, by long usage, and may
manufacture their own credentials.
Their fellow Democrats in the district
are very much obliged to them for repre-.
senting 1t, and IL any outsider objects,
they do not press their informal claim !;
and that Is all there Is Of 1t.
