Hannibal and sherman.

A writer draws a comparison be-
tween Hannibal, the famos Oartha-
gilman general, and the late William
Tecumseh Sherman. The two men
had the same sort of temperament,
and, if we may trust the ancient de-
scriptiOns, they resembled one an
other in physical stature not less than
in the thoroughness of their military
education. Hannibal was the first
man to depart from the battle tactics
which were the method of fighting
adopted by Alexander. He had
methods OF his own, and his success,
until the Romans had learned from
him how to use his own weapons, was
due to the same qualities which dis
tinguished the military services Of
Gen. Sherman. He gained his first
and last victories by the use Of STRAIT
egg. He did the unexpected thing.
All his career was the doing Of things
that nobody else did, and throughout
the late civil war Gen. Sherman was
the man who constantly improved
upon military rules by methods OF his
own. The passage Of the Alps by
Hannibal was not more wonderful in
his day than the operations which
Sherman planned and executed in his
march TO Chattanooga, and his gigan-
tic conception of an invasion of Italy
has its parallel in Gen. Sherman's
plan Of the march to the sea and the
support of his army by levying con.
-trihaltions.-upan--th Through
whose homes he was passing. The
American general did not stay fOr
sixteen years in the country of his
enemies, as Hannibal did, and COM
pei subjugated provinces to support
him, but he could have done it as
easily as the Carthaginian did if the
same occasion had existed. There
was in cur Sherman the same insight
into the conditions Of war, the same
comprehension of the vital point at
issue, the same swift reading Of men,
the same power Of control, and the
same ability TO keen his own counsel.

as palatable and nutritious. The
blossom is small, of rich purple hue,
and when the flower drops off little
white egg is seen. This grows to
about the size Of its cousin, the pear
shaped eggplant OF commerce. But
the white variety preserves its per-
feet egg-shape in all stages of its de-
velopment.
1t thrives in the open air wherever
the purple plant grows, and is culti-
waited in the same way. Another
variety of the same family bears a
golden-yeilow fruit, but the white
variety is the only one in which the
fruit is of the ovoid form.
When pressed between the fingers
the white fruit is found to possess the
same soft, elastic feeling as a hard
boiled egg. The interior is filed with
cells and small seeds, like the purple
plant or the tomato.
Aside from its utility as an article
of food, it is priced for its rarity and
beauty. The plant stands about two
feet high, and has broad, soft, oval
leaves of dark green.
The fruit possesses one defect. Ii
cannot be Matched into broilers.

A GooaIx com1ni..lon.

In business matters Mr.. Scott, the
PENNSYLVANIA millionaire, who died
recently, was quick in his conclusions,
sound in judgment, inexhaustible In
resources. The public remembers yet
the sale by VIM. III. Vanderbilt OF
$40, 900, 900 worth of stock in the New
York Central at 120. That sale was
made by VIM. l.. Scott.
Vanderbilt, harassed and worried
in the management of the property,
vexed by public criticism, and uncer-
tain about his health, expressed, in
the presence of Scott, wish to be rid
of the property.
"You are not in earnest?" said
Scott.
81 was never more in earnest in my
life," was the reply.
"Why not sell it them" the Penn
sylvanian asked.
"Sell It'll" exclaimed Vanderbilt,
where can l find purchaser fol
$40, 900, 900 of the stock?"
Il can find such purchaser" said
Scott, "at fair commission"
ado it," was the response, sand
viii give you $500, 000."
In few days Scott had organized
a syndicate among the bankers o.
New York to purchase the Wander
bilt stock at 120, and without any
difficulty the transaction was con
cluded.
Then came Mr.. Scotts demand FOL
his commission of 100000. Wander
bilt demurred; 100000 was a bis
sum of money for such work. Mr.
Scott insisted that it was bargain
made openly and seriously, and car
ried to a conclusion. Still Wander
bilt objected that it was too big ;
commission.
what is it worth?" asked Mr.
Scott.
"Oh," said Mr.. Vanderbilt, 1920,
OOO."
"Very well, then, let me have tn,
5000, 1000" said the gentleman from
Pennsylvania, and the matter wa
settled. Had Mr.. Scott insisted
there is little doubt the $500, 00'
would have been forthcoming AS i
was, the commissions was as easil,
earned as any money Mr.. Scott eve

were alike marvellous. With ham,
mocks rugged between their bicycles,
which they kept equidStant, they
succeeded in carrying of to the hospi-
tai a great many badly wounded men
who must have persisted had they
remained on the field half an hour
longer. These wheelmen are equally
useful as ambulance men or as light
cavalrymen. We saw, in the recent
battle, whole spuadrons OF them dash
up against light artillery, which the
enemy were bringing into position for
demoralizing an advance, and so
quickly did they charge that the guns
were surrounded and taken before the
enemy fancied himself in danger"
The recent military maneuvers in
France. Germany, Austria. and En-
gland have amply demonstrated that
bicycle, long distance telephone,
qladricycle, military balloon, battal-
ions of bicycle-mounted riflemen,
wheelmen as scouts in advance OF the
main column-all these things will
be in active and constant use in the
next campaigns. or what vast serv-
ice the long-distance telephone would
have been m the campaigns around
Paris In 1870, or in the marching and
conference.-the before Plevna In
1877. And the time when paintings
which depict the wild charges OF
wheelmen over the smokeless battle
fields OF the future will be as pict.
uresque and exciting for US when
