there are also immense cedar forests,

Development of Modern Cavalry.

It has for some time been realize
by the German authorities how advan.
tageous it would be if their cavalry
could rapidly throw across a river a
bridge OF sufficient stability to carry
artillery. They have now supplied to
their cavalry folding boat, which,
with all the necessary stores, can be
loaded and carried on q four-horse
wagon. Each regiment receives two
of these wagons, which makes twelve
for cavalry division, and this amount
OF material sufflces to construct, in o
very short time, 9 bridge more THAI
Atty yards long. These boats can be
used in various ways, tho only disad.
vantage experienced being that the
twelve wagons take up as much room
rs a battery, and materially add to the
length of . column. It is thought that
their value has been conclusivcly
proved ct the maneuvres in various
circumstances. The Revue du Cercle
Militaire, from which the above ac-
count Is taken, adds that the education
of the German cavalry is being prose-
cuted in other directions. They are
to be trained in the execution of field
works. A new drill-book is being
supplied to them, and certain mum.
Der Of instructors, borrowed from the
pioneer battalions, will henceforward
be attached to the cavalry regiments
and to the Riding School at Hanover.

needed for the case in hand is first
provided, and pipes run from this
into each room in the building; at
the top is jar in which acid is
stored, inside of which is cartridge;
an open circuit battery is used. The
thermostat in each room is set at
whatever figure is desired, perhaps at
eighty degrees. On the occurrence
OF fire the mercury runs up to this
figure, and the circuit is closed; this
'explodes the cartridge in the jar, a
valve drops down, and the chemicals
are sent to the room through a sys-
tenn Of sprinklers. In connection
with this device there is a system Of
dry pipes, and in case it is found that
the chemicals do not extinguish the
fire an attendant on the outside Of
the building is able to tell by the
enumerator in which apartment the
fire Is located, and by turning a
switch can flood the room with water
