The European Arm,es.

In the event of war occurring In
Europe, it is matter of interest to
see what numbers of men would be
engaged on all sides. The causus
belli is between Russia and Austria,
with Germany and Italy pledged to
support the latter against all assaults,
and the positive certainty that France
would move on Germany in behalf Of
Russia and on her own account. 1t
is possible that Denmark might be
persuaded to join the Russia SIDE Of
the dispute, as she has hereditary
grudge against Prussia who despoil-
ed her of Schleswig Holstein in
1851. 1t is hardly likely, as the
aggravation to Russia is Austria's pro-
dominance in Bulgaria and Turkey,
that Turkey can maintain an armed
neutrality, so that nearly the whole of
Europe will be involved in war when
ever the first gun is fred between
Austria and Russia.
The forces that Austria can com
mand in event of war are set down at
| ,043,35l. She has navy of sixty
eight vessels, of which fourteen are
ronclads, which would Immediately
be heard from in the Black Sea.
Russia has on war footing in the
neighborhood Of 100000 men. Her
resources are immense, as she can
draw on her Asiatic dependencies to
an unlimited extent, besides the inn
mense body she can raise by con
scription. 1t is safe to put Russia
down as capable of placing two mill
ion men in the field.
Germany's force on war footing,
before the recent bill passed, was L.
3l5,634. The increase will raise her
force to at least a million and half.
ltaly's strength on war footing is
placed at less than 100000, but her
chief strength is her navy, which con-
tains the most powerful ironclads
ahoat.
The army of France was remodel
ed in 1878 by law that made every
Frenchman capable of bearing arms
liable to military service for twenty
years, which will enable hor to place
100000 men in the Gcld, Her ma
Wy is only second to that of Great
Britain in size and effectiveness.
The Danish army is small, not So.
600 men, while that of Spain is reck-
oned at 100000.
Turkeys strength is reckoned at
over 100000.
Thus the allies can place nearly
four and half million men in the
field. 1t can readily be conjecrured
that the war, if inaugurated, would
be war of Titanic proportions.

1t is said that new scheme for a
negro exodus is about perfected
The proposition is to remove colored
men frcm the Southern States to
South America. Very many wealthy
men are said to support this move
ment and the promoters assert that
within two years from this date they
will send away one million oolored
people. The country which is looked
with most favor upon is Brazil
There seems to be division Of
opinion as to the commences of this
movement, and, if real, as to It's ulti-
mate probable success.

Nix and Mrs, Abe Beard, of Gar
den Valley, were in town this week.
Mr.. Beard, who has one hundred
bearing fruit trees, which he set out
several years ago more as an expert
mont than for any other purpose, says
he will probably add FIVE or six hun
dred more trees, principally apple, to
the number he already has. Mr..
Beard has demonstrated the fact that
better fruit can be raised in that val
ley than in Boise valley, which is
famous in this line, and even larger
and OF better flavor than the Horse
shoe Bend and Jerusalem fruit, which
has heretofore had the reputation of
being unsurpassed. Mr.. Boards
fruit crop has never yet been failure,
the trees bearing their usual crop last
year, when the crop in every other
section Of Idaho was either a total, OF
almost total failure. Even his peach
trees last year were loaded. His plum
trees, however, are not thrifty, theil
roots being food for some kind of g
bug or insect. 1t would be great
benefit to Boise county If all the far.
mers of Garden valley would turn
their attention to fruit growing. Many
hundreds of dollars that go to Ada
county every year for fruit would be
kept at home, and the Garden Valley
its, who set out orchards, will in a few
years reap rich reward, and their in.
creased prosperity will be permanent
Mr. Beard has proven by the test he
has made that fruit crops are less
liable to failure IN that beautiful little
valley than anywhere else in Idaho.

THE San Francisco Alta California
says Ohio is excited over the fact that
a stick of timber has been discovered
In that state, which when sawed, was
seventy-five feet in length. Some of
the papers speak of it as a ''world
beater," and clam the next presidency
for Foraker with greater persistency
than before. The Alta says this Ohio
log would not excite any more enthu-
siasm in the best timber society of
California than walking stick. The
East Oregonian adds that in Oregon
1T would be no more considered than
a toothpick of wooden variety. While
in Washington territory such stick
would be olassed with the insigni6
canoe of wooden shoe peg, says the
Walla Walla Statesman. In north
Idaho it would be treated SIMPLY as a
thumb nail splinter, says North Ida
no Exchange.
