The British Army of To-Day.

A blue book has just been issued in
London giving preliminary returns Of
the British army of 1892, with alb
stract for the years 1873 to 1892.
From this it appears that the average
effective strength Of the regular army
last year was 213,540, composed as fol-
lows: Household cavalry, 1878: cav
airy Of the line, 1887; royal artillery,
horse, 3740; field, 14,308; mountain,
1878; garrison, including corps Of or
dinance artificers, 1886; royal engi-
neers, 745S; foot guards, 5949; infan-
try of the line, 1910; colonial corps,
1887; army service corps, 1902; or
dinance store corps, $50; corps of ar
morers, 81; medical staff corps, 2432.
The average number of officers was
1858, and and of sergeants, 1881.
The troops were distributed thus: At
home, 1O6,115; colonies and Egypt, 3D.
24O; India, 1916. The strength Of
the army in 1873 was 1880. The eff
fective strength Of all arms increased
from 203,163 on the first day of 1892
to 2o9,2$ on January 1 of this year.
OF the recruits 245O were long-service
men, while 21OS Joined for three. years
and 37,1O1 for even years on the
short-service system. Thirty-two thou
sand and ninety-four were raised in
England, 1861 in Scotland and $500 in
ireland. Fifteen thousand five hun
dred and seventy-eight recruits were
rejected by medical officers and 1922
after attestation as unfit for service
with the colors. A table Of ages shows
that 1905 recruits were under seven
teen. The majority We're between
eighteen and nineteen. Those over
twenty years of age composed less than
q third Of the whole number.

A MATHEMATICAL PROBLEM.
A Question Which Is Bothering
Some of the Best Guessers.


A group Of gentlemen were gathered
about the desk at the Arlington last
evening, engaged in earnest endeavors
to figure out a mathematical problem
brought ovcr by q prominent young
member Of the New York bar, who
stands to lose 500 on q wager If his
W solution is wrong. Here it is:
A column of troops twenty-five miles
long Is ordered to a point twenty-five
miles distant. A courier starts stimuli
taneously with the e of the column
and reaches the head thereof. Return
lng, he meets the rear of the column
at b point where the head originally
was. Both the troops and the courier
are to travel at a uniform rate Of
speed. How many miles does the 'cour-
Ter traverse?
1t looks simple. The young New
Yorker said it was simple, and that it
didn't take a mathematical sharp to
figure that the courier journeyed even
fifty miles. The man who made the
bet with him was q Philadelphia,
and he called in Prof. Thunder, a teach
er of mathematics, said to be the great

professor figured at it a while and
said it was plain that the courier Gov
cred over fifty miles, but just how
much more he wouldn't undertake to
say off-hand.
The man from Gotham was not sat
isfied with the Philadelphia professors
conclusion, SO on reaching Washington
he hunted up Prof. George Hill, the
clerk to the house irrigation committee,
and an expert in mathematics, who, in
turn, referred him to Prof. Woodward,
Of the coast and geodetic survey. His
answer was sent in and appeared at
the bottom of a long sheet of algebraic
equations. 1t was 6O.3 miles. And
still the New Yorker is not satisfied.
Before giving up the 500 he is going
to have the opinion Of the professor
of mathematics of Columbia college.
1t will take no less an authority than
that to shake his belief in the correct
ness Of his own ciphering, which he adj
mits was not done with the help of

SPANISH LITERATURE.

Spain Has Always Been a Fnvorite
Field for American Poets and
Scholars.
The outlook for the future Of Span
ish literature, particularly the novel,
seems good. The attempts Of twenty
Eve years ago, not always successful
from the point Of view Of sincerity,
even when made by professional novel
lists, have been followed by such an
advance toward perfection that good
novels are now written by writer's,
primarily critics, such as Valera and
Bazan; and steady advance in concep-
ton and in results has been made by
those who occupy themselves chiefly,
as aValdes does, with the writing of
novels. For Americans who either
love a good story for itself or have am
bition to enrich our own literature on
the side Of the novel, there is and ap-
parently will be for some time to come
a great deal in contemporary Spain
worthy of their attention.
1t was the opinion Of the late Walt
Whitman that since there is Il Spanish

FOR TRAVELLERS WITH COLDS

lord.
Nothing but travel, and extensive
:ravel at that, will give 4 person a
,.ull idea Of the queer ways that there
was o long since %journcying through
the midland counties of England re-
ated that in q small country town he
once entered an inn rather prctcn-
tious for the place and called for tur-
3ot-a favoritc dish Of those parts.
The American had had a few days
of dense fog, and his appearance and
manner perhaps showed that he had
become a little wheeZy in consequence
IF the climate. He was forced to have
frequent recourse. to his pocket hand
kerchief.
When the turbot was brought the
guest fancicd. even before it reached
his plate, that it was no longer fresh,
md an attempt to cat it confirmed that
impression. He called the proprietor,
who at once sent the waiter for fresh
turbot, aad removed the obnoxious
fish.
II beg yer par1ling, SIR said the
~inn-keeper, but we got the idee, sir,
as you came in, that you had a bad cold

AGE AND

Time Mt Which Woman's Charms
and Graces Prove Most Attrac.
tive.
The physical beauty Of women should
last until they are past so. Nor does
b eauty, remarks Science Siftings, reach
it zenith under the age Of 35 or 40.
Helen Of Troy came upon the stage
at the age Of 40. Aspasia was 36
when married to Pericles, and she was
a brilliant figure thirty years thereafter.
Cleopatra was past 80 years when she
met Antony. Diane de Poictiers was
36 when she won the heart Of Henry
II. The king was half her age, but
his devotion never changed. Anne of
Austria was SO when described as the
most beautiful woman in Europe.
Nine. de Maintenon was 43 when unit
ed to Louis, and Catherine of Russia
80 when she seized the throne he oc-
cupied for ~thirty-fve years.
Mile. Mar was most beautiful at IS,
and Nine. Recanier between the ages
OF IS and So. The most lasting and
intense passion is not inspired by two
decade beauties. The old saw about
sweet 16 is exploded by the truei
knowledge that the highest beauty does
not dwell in immaturity. For beauty
does not mean alone the fashion Of
form and ,colOring as found In the
waxen doll. The dew of youth and q
complexion of roses sometimes combine
in a face that is unmoving and unre-
sponsive, as though lacking utterly the
life sparkle. A woman's best and
richest wears are from Dc to 4O. 1t Is
urrant error for any woman to regard
herself as passe at an earlier day.
In the course Of years, however, a
time arrives when the coming Of age
must be recognized, when the muscles
begin to relax, the skin to lose its pol
ish and roundness, and softness gives
place to angles. Contentm.:nt AMI good
humor will still outrival all medical in
ventions as a ~preservative of youth.
A woman beautiful in all else, but
wanting mirth, will grow old, sour, thin
ami sallow, while the merry, fun-loving
spite life's happenings and sorrows.

Valuable Lantern.

A will written with a pencil on q
single was once admitted to probate
in the United States. The author of
Gossip of the Century tells a story
still more curious.
Two British soldiers, comrades, while
talking over the chances of war on
the eve of a battle, agreed that which
ever of them survived the other should
inherit all his possessions. To insure
the carrying out Of their agreement,
they made their wills. AS paper and
pens were not at hand, they scratched
their last will and testament on q
horn lantern with a rusty nail.
The battle was fought, and one Of the
comrades was killed. The other man,
in course of time, returned to England,
carrying with him the singular docu-
m.ent. He took it to Doctors Com
mons, where it was proved and al
loved.
Then it appeared that the pool fell
low who had died i'll battle had, with
out hearing Of it, inherited property
yielding I2OO q year, and the legatee
under the horn lantern will received
the Inheritance.
The, Navajoes Would BE Formidable
Foes.
It is the opinion of men familiar with
the character of the Navajo Indians
that a war with them will prove to be
a serious business for the government.
The tribe numbers about $4,000, of
whom 5000 r fighting warriors. The
reservation where they are intrenched
is rough and difficult, and contains
many passes where, according to one
authority, 1.-TWO Indians can hold their
ground against the entire United States
army" The Navajoes have trained
their ponies to 60 without water for
{ two days, If necessary. The whole
! tlihe is armed with the most approved
repeating rifles, and the bucks have
been storing ammunition for years in
anticipation of trouble. The Navajoes
have "a perfect system of signals and
scouts, and Ire always informed hours
in advance of the movements of troops
sent against them.-Argonaut.

Royal Appointments.

We often lament the character Of ap-
pointments to office under party rule,
which sometimes gives the ''spoils" to
the victor, but they have never been
as conspicnously unit, probably, as tho
appointments made by royal personaEes
In the past.
This old fashion of favoritism Is well
sairtzed in O story told Of d. Bignon,
a person Of very little learning, who
was made royal librarian by King
Louis XIV. Of France.
When the news Of this appointment
was brought by Bignon to his uncle,
n. TArgenson, the uncle exclaimed:
Good, nephew: Now you have an
admirable opportunity to learn to
read!"
