HUMANITY IN WAR.
The Humane and Generous Acts of Noble
Warriors.


Warriors.
1t is related of Henry w., the first
French king of the house of Bourbon,
that while besieging Paris, at that time
held against him by the Catholic league,
he was urgently advised to take the city
by assault before troops daily expected
from the king of Spain could arrive to
succor the leaguers He knew that by
a determined assault he could carry the
works before him, but he protested
against it on the principle of humanity.
II will not" said he, "expose the
capital of my country to the miseries
and horrors which must follow such an
event. I will show to my people that |
am their father; and l will follow the
example of the true mother who pre-
sented herself before Solomon. | will
not gain the prize through the slaugh-
ter of innocent persons.
In time, Henry reduced the city with
the loss of but few lives. In a subse-
quent conversation upon the subject OF
the number slain, he exclaimed:
''If it were in my power would give
anything but my kingly honor to re-
deem those citizens, and to have the
satisfaction of informing posterity that
had subdued Paris without spilling a
drop of blood"
In the war of 1896 between France
and Austria, the Archduke Charles,
when Fastening from Bohemia to take
command of the Austrian army, met,
near the scene of late action, large
number of wounded soldiers, both
French and Austrians, who in the haste
of retreat and pursuit, had been
abandoned where they had fallen. The
only horses at nand which could posi-
blv be used in removing these helpless
sufferers were attached to the artillery.
LET the cannon be left behind said
the humane prince, ''and let these poOI
fellows be saved" And when one OF
his generals demonstrated, he added!
'No, no; let it be as | have ordered
The life of one brave man is better
worth preserving than fifty pieces OF
ordnance"
When the French General Moreau,
into whose hands the cannon thus
abandoned had fallen, learned the mo-
tive which had prompted the archdulke
to make the sacrifice, he ordered the
whole to be restored, observing that he
should be unworthy of being the oppo-
nent of his imperial highness if he took
advantage of so noble an act of hu
manity-N. Y. Ledger.

THE MANlPUR MASSACRE.

Arrival in Calcutta of the Wife of Politi-
cal Agent GrimwOod who was Killed
with Commissioner Qunton and Party
by the Manipuris-A Version of the Af-
fair Showing that Intended British
Treacherv was Met by Native Cunning
and Ferocity.
CALCUTTA, April 3O.-Mrs. +. St c.
Grimwood, wife Of Mr.. Grimwood, the
late political agent of the British gov
ernment at Manipur, who was put to
death at the same time that Chief Com
missioner Quinton and his companions
lost their lives, has arrived in this city.
Mrs. Grimwood, in her recital of the
. story of the massacre, charged that the
disaster was due entirely to the
rasi,ness Of the chief commissioner
in refusing to be governed by the
sensible advice which had been given
him with regard to the negotiations
then being conducted with the hill
chiefs concerning the deposition of the
Objectionable maharajah. Mrs. Grim
wood declares that the British have
little right to complain Of the treachery
Of the senaputte. who was invited by
Quinton to attend the durbar for the
express and single purpose of effect
ing his capture unawares, and
placing him, treacherously, under arrest
without the bloodshed which the COM
missioner felt would follow an open at
tempt to secure the person Of the noun
tain chief It appears from Mrs. Grim
woods statement that the senaputte
in some way came to suspect gum
tons intentions. and so declined to
attend the durbar. At the same time
the willy Asiatic, instead of allowing
himself to fall into the hands of his
enemies, managed to draw the chief
commissioner and his staff within his
net. This done, he permitted his hills
men to wreak their vengeance upon
the captives Mrs. Grimwood's story
is generally accepted as correct. and has
created feeling of deep Indignation
among the people with regard to the
apparent mismanagement of the whole
unfortunate Manipur business.

ABOUT OUR SUN AND MOON.

NEW theory in relation to the moon
has lately been advanced, to the effect
that the lights and shadows of the moon
are incompatible with the theory of its
spherical shape
A GERMAN capitalist has offered re-
ward of S25, 900 to any astronomer who
can satisfactorily prove to him that the
sun, the moon, or any one OF the stars
is inhabited, or that it contains any
solid matter whatever
THE brightness of the moon is not so
very much greater than the brightness
of the same area of sky. The total
light of the full moon can be compared
with the total light of the sun. though
it is a very difficult problem, and the re-
suit will be that the sun is as bright as
$4,000 full moons
By comparison of records extending
over a number of years it has been con-
cluded that the moon has an influence in
lowering the height of the barometer
in the months from September to jan
uary at the time of full moon, and in
raising it during the first quarter. No
effect has been perceived in the other
months.
SUN spots are cavities in the surface
of the sun filed with gases. They are
generally distributed in groups, princi-
pally in two zones which cover the sur
face Of the sun lying between ten de-
grees and thirty-fve degrees north and
south of it's equator. Their size varies
from those just visible with the most
powerful telescope to those 100, 900 miles
in diameter
