 To be a really successful war corre- spondent is to be really great, and James Creelman, the American newspaper man who has attracted general atten- tion by his work reporting the war be- tween China and Japan, has already proved his right to be considered cor. of energy and push. To those who knew him aforetime the knowledge of his enterprise and power to "drive" does not come as new thing, for he has long been understood to be of more than ordinary ability and alertness.

rlences during our own civil war, lis the outgrowth of very modern civili- zation, though Xenophen and Julius Caesar were early examples of their pro- fession. They, however, told the story of their own deeds and the nineteenth century Bohemians narrate the acts of others. They are the out growth of the great and constantly aug menting power of the press and were first fully developed and their influence felt during the Crimean contest. There were war correspondents before that day, in the Napoleonic struggle for uni versal domination and in our own little affair, as it now appears, with Mexico, but until the time mentioned war corre- spondence had not become a regular and recognized department of military-civi life"
 One of the most successful of the pioneers among war correspondents was William Howard Russell, who came to be known as Bull Rum Russell dur ing the civil war in this country. Like so many other men who have diStin- guished themselves i'll journalism, Dr. Russell-for he is a doctor of something now, though of what this writer wots not-did not set out to be a newspaper man, but fell into the business quite in- cidentally, if not accidentally. His work has all been done for the London Times, and he began to write for that solid old sheet while he was yet in college. When the repeal agitation of O'COnnell began, Russell was first regularly engaged by The Times, and when the Irish patriot was put on trial Russell was sent to re- port the case He was then but 22, but he did his work to the perfect satisfac- tiOn of his employers. Probably tho larger portion of my readers know little or nothing of O'Connell and his trial, and no wonder, for the trial was nearly 50 years ago. Young Russell at that time was reading law. and ill 1850 he was called to the bar. For few years after that event ill his life he devoted himself to such minor matters of practice as fall to the lot of young barristers i'll England. Mir. Delane was editor of The Times then, and he told young Rus sell one day in 1854 that a pleasant ex- cursion had been arranged for him. He was to accompany the guard to Malta. The English government had decided to make a display of supporting Turkey against Russia, but it was hardly dream ed by any one then that the Crimean war, with its horrors, was to follow the demonstration to report which Mir. Rus sell was to take an agreeable little ''ex- cursion. But so it was, and so began the real life work of one who, should say, may properly be spoken of as the father of modern war correspondence, for, although Russell began his work before the days of the wire. before war correspondence was a recognized branch of journalism. while yet journalism it.

 Colonel Maynard's brigade went into camp on the river bank some five or six miles from the plantation. The colonel insisted on having Jakey Slack with him permanently and sent him home to ask his fathers permission, Jakey at the same time bearing an invitation to his sister to visit Mrs. Maynard, re-en- forced by special request from the colonel that it be accepted! Jakey sue. ceeded in obtaining the desired permis. sion, and after much hesitation Souri decided to accept. Jakey entered the army as drummer boy, but was not called upon to flourish the sticks.
