under the old law. Former registration

SHAM FIGHTING.

As some compensation for frequent fail
ures Of oft-predicted hostile conflicts be-
tween the great powers of Europe, these
latter have of late years essayed to keep up
the interest in military and naval warfare,
and to maintain these forces in condition
for immediate and effective action by pro-
jecting sham battles, both by land and sea,
and in some cases both the land aud naval
forces have been drawn into the pretended
conflicts. Some of these demonstrations
have been highly elaborate and expensive;
as much so. perhaps. as were many of the
great decisive conflicts of few centuries
ago.
For number of years it has been the
custom of the English Admiralty to plan
and execute each season a series of naval
engagements with an imaginary foe, and
many Of these have been conducted upon
scale which could not be afforded EXCEPT
by government of vast resources, even in
case of real and pressing necessity. But it
is doubtful If anything of this kind in
modern times has equaled the demonstra-
ton which the German government has
planned and proposes to execute next Sep
TENDER on the coast of Schleswig- II olstein.
On that occasion the crack Ninth Army
Corps of the imperial army will carry out
the military part of the programme, which
will include an attack upon the finely for
titled island OF Alsen, while the entire
available naval forces of the empire will be
engaged either in the assault or the de-
lost xrtIi II. L.
