German Army ManOeuvrcs.
HIarner's BaZar.l


No spectator could see all OF this great
army in action at any one time. for the
iighting-line alone was nearly ten miles
long. and the commanding generals had
10 rely upon the reports Of their many
aidcs-de-camp for information. In fact,
standing in the hring-line OF one side,
II is not always easy TO determine the
uniform Of the enemy upon which the
guns are trained. Now that smokelcss
powder is the rule and troops fire at
such long range. the most conspicuous
object that can be aiued at Is the ac-
emulation OF buttons and helmet spikes
which betray the enemy. OFTEN | have
noticed troops at a distance OF 800 or
200 yards betrayed solely by the brass
in their accOutrements.
The cannon, as a rule, did betray them
selves by small puff Of smoke. but from
a regiment OF infantry in fire there was
no more smoke than would have come
out Of a cigar. When the sun shOne
bright | could not discover the presence
Of a firing line, but so soon as cloud
passed across the sun | could then note
flash as each cartridge was exploded;
and this flash became more conspicuous
as the day became more cloudy.
The bicycles had a hard time Of it,
though | counted one 10 nearly every
p
suit the 'cyclist. and on this land OF Po-
merana the wheels did more harm than
good for roads were very scarce. In these
manoeuvres | can scarcely recall a single
Wheelman who was actually employed
otherwise than in pushing his machine
along. Many of them were employed
night carrying dispatches from headquar
tiers. but they can have been but few II
comparison with the whole. because OF
the bad roads.
In South Germany. France, and notably
England. the bicycle is bound 10 play an
important part in any future mobiliza-
ton of troops, because with the increase
i'm the size of armies comes increased inn
portance of keeping up rapid and fire.
quent communication between the com
handing general and his subordinates.
And in such counties cycle corps may
be used. not merely as messengers. but
also for purposes of raids--for surprising
small hostile outposts or for destroying
bridges and telegraph wires. But let us
realize at the same time what the limi-
tations OF the cyclists are, so as not 10
waste them in a country where they can
do no good.
1t is very doubtful il the United States
army could use a Bike Brigade" TO adj
vantage. excepting in very favorable
times Of the year; for our roads are. as
a rule. such that they cannot be perma-
nently relied upon by wheelmen. Every
'cyclist in America goes 10 bed with the
prayer on his lips that Uncle Sam may
stop squandering money on a pack Of
swindlers who disgrace our citizenship by
taking pensions, and that he may spend
that money in giving us a network OF
macadamzed highways just as good az
those Of Europe. Then might We put half
OF our army on wheels

THE DUKES WEDDING.
Arrangements for Handling the
Crush Mt the Church.

Arrangements have been completed for
handling the vast crowd expected about
ST. Thomas's church. New York. the day
Of the wedding OF Miss Consuelo Nander-
bilt 10 the Duke Of Marlborough.
Frank II. Johnson will be in charge or
the invited guests at the church, and at
the house. He is the social aristocrat or
the town, as his father was before him.
No other person holds similar position
In New York or elsewhere. He knows tho
face OF every one in society, and Is able
TO tell at a glance whether the person
giving the old excuse OF having forgotten
the invitation is entitled 10 enter or not.
Mr. Johnson will have between forty
and fifty policemen. I'm charge or an act
ing captain. The policemen will be sta
toned on lines extending to the outer
limit OF the boundaries Of the church pro-
perty west of Fifty-third street. ami
north on Fifth avenue. No one VIII %
permitted on the corner Of Fifty-thlrd
