The ten generals were evenly divided, and
in such emergencies the war ruler had the

Athenian noble, Callimachus who was list

for an offensive policy. 1T now rests with

erals elected Miltiades chief for the csm-
paign and acted under his orders.
The PerSians meanwhile were doing
nothing except 10 urge on IIippias In his
schemes Of fomcnting trea1hery behind the
backs OF the Greek soldiery. Miltiadcs
counted upon the superiority in organiza-
ton and armor Of his soldiery aud upon
their patriotic enthusiasm. The situation
demanded bold tactics. The custom Of his
time was to advance the whole line Of bat
tie slowly and steadily in uniform pbalanx.
But the field Of Marathon was So broad as
TO call for an extended line, and Miltiades
concentrated heavily on the wings and
weakened the center The formation of
the ground favored his movements of
preparation, unobserved by the enemy, un
ill all was ready. Then the trumpet sound
ed hymns and celebrations were chanted
and II 900 spearmen rushed down the slope
upon the unsuspecting AsaticS. The rapid
ity of movement was also an innovation,
but the objections usually urged, that sol
diers who 20 in on the run exhaust their
wind before they get into action, would
not apply to Athenians, who were trained
runners from youth. Pompey In his time
held to this objection, but Cesar believed
that running excited the soldiers courage
and gave force 10 their blows.
The Persian army was composed Of many
mongrel hordes, nevert heless IL had sub
stantial force of disciplined men under able
leaders. The rush Of the Athenians took
all by surprise, and the irregulars, who
acted as mounted men. did not have time
To get in line. The Greeks were heavily
equipped, hearing spears helmets, breast
plates, shields. greaves and short swords.
The Persians had no armor and only
wicker shields, with short lances and
cimeters for weapons The shock of the
first attack broke down the front line of
Persians. but they rallied and set to work
"a retrieve, individually and by weight Of
numbers, what they had lost in the sur
prise. The best Persian troops were in the
center, and they succeeded in not only re-
pulsing the Greek center but in driving IL
back across the plain up a valley that di-
vdei the mountain side. The Greek wings,
however had been successful, and had
routed everything opposed To them. This
was the turning point, and the faith OF
Miltiades in the organization Of his sol
dery was justified.
In ninety nine cases out OF hundred
victorious soldiers rush wildly in pursuit
and 40 too far. Such "a mistake at Mara

The only Protection that will effect.
ually protect all people, all classes, all
labor and all interests is that styled
SELF PROTECTION acquired only from
truthful knowledge of ways and
means, legal and illegal, just and un-
Just, by which the burdens of govern
ment, profits of labor and industry, are
so unequally divided.
That knowledge is power, and ignor-
ance its slave, is forcibly illustrated
daily in all walks of life, among all
people, in all countries.
Where knowledge is used as power
or means for gaining wealth without
labor or an equivalent therefor, it be-
comes necessary to deceive or keep in
ignorance of such methods those from
whom the wealth is taken; hence it is
that of the ten thousand newspapers
printed in the United States, less than
ten are absolutely free and independent
of the power or control of some class,
party or monopoly whose interest it is
to keep the great mass of people in
ignorance of their methods.
The Cincinnati Weekly Enquirer is
one of the few, if not the only one,
absolutely free from such influences.
It is the most honest, thorough, able
teacher and exponent of truthful
knowledge, of reliable data, free from
partisan bias, fair, frank and explicit
to such degree that one cannot but feel
edited and capable of forming correct
conclusions therefrom. Such q paper
hould be in every household. Sample

One day drop of water lay in pool
on the city street. 1t was stained and
soiled. But looking up, it saw the blue
sky, and the pure heavens, and the white
sunbeams dancing everywhere, and be-
gan to long for purity and for a nobler,
worthier life. 1t looked up into the sky,
and lite longing became an earnest prayer
TO be made clean and beautiful. And its
prayer was heard. Presently the little
soiled drop was lifted up out Of the gut
terinto the air-higher and higher. Then
the breeze caught it and it was waited
away, away, and by and by 1t rested in
the bosom Of a rose, drop Of pure, crys-
tai dew. So God answers our prayers
for holiness. Blessed are they which
do hunger and thirst after righteousness,
for they shall be filed. X. Miller.

had positively refused to go on the 5000
bond individually, and suggesting that the
Council retain s.. 900 from their pay for the
street until thev could secure ample surety
and the matter was referred to the Paving
Committee and Solicitor. Why Smith
Porter & Co. should be willing to go on the
bond as a corporation and not as individ'
uals is not known; but it said that the
corporations Of the country are now max
ing practice Of issuing bonds, which are
taken up By the individual members and
entered as first liens on the plant, thus
making the corporation practically ire
sponsible.
East Jefferson St. is now completed, and
Long d Doyle asked that the assessment

was retained at $50 per month for two
months, he to also investigate and make
report to Council of any public nuisanees
he discovers. The ten policemen employ
ed by the Burgess during Fair week were
paid 50 day for four days each. OF the

Mr. Haffner brought up the matter of
the Clay st. extension, which should be
opened and drained as the people there
now complain of the filth that has accum-
ulated in the neighborhood. He said that
Mrs. Baldauf was ready to open, and that
all she wanted was for some of the Coun-
cilmen to call and see her somebody
snickered and the snicker became general,
then somebody laughed and the laugh be-
came general, and there was considerable
fun at Adams expense-and the Council
men of the 4th ward were authorized to at
terd to the business.
The Borough Solicitor was instructed to
proceed VS.. the p & W. II. r. Co. regard
ing the overhead bridge, also to make

from the outside, and he is supposed to
have bribed his keeper with money Of
which he had a plenty, as a detective who
suspected something was going on notified
the jail authorities of his suspicious.

about O'Clock of Tuesday morning, and
for some reason the police were not prompt
