not yet decided upon the amount of the
Jameson raid indemnity, but that il
will be a reasonable sum, and the de-

ARMY AND NAVY.

Admiral Bunce commanding the North At
lantic Squadron, has ordered the trial by court
martial of Lieut.. John c. Colwell, OF the ram
katahdin. on charges growing out OF trouble
with a servant on the ship, negro from Bar
bados. The man claimed that the officer as
sauted him, and began civil suit, which
obliged Admiral Bunce TO take cognizance of
the affair. The affair resulted from a dinner
party at one of the ports on Long Island Sound
in the course Of which the officer regarded the
servant derelict in duty, and, as the latter
charged, after some words, assaulted him.
The Military Information DIVISION OF me
War Department has just issued the ninth
number of the series of valuable educational
publications. the present being devoted princi-
pally to a description in great detail OF the
large military schools of Europe. Other papers
in the volume treat of the difficulties expert
enced in the European military countries In
securing the re-enlistment of non commissioned
officers; the influence of smokeiess powder on
tactics and a most interesting statement OF the
changes shat the use OF this new military aid Will
cause in old methods OF ighting; and a curious
publication of the regulations for the use OF war
dogs in the German army. From the latter 1t
appears that there arc really such Things as
"dogs of war;" and that it is part oil the
functions of the German soldier to train care
fully certain breeds of dogs to aid him IN Dotn
hostile and defensive operations. The dogs are
actually fight, but by training they are made
of value in watching Camp. in picket duty, IN
carrying dispatches, and in looking for missing
men.
Every little while the old idea of introduce
ing the bicycle into the Army as permanent
institution is brought up but the latest agita-
ton promises to he something more than a
mere agitation When Gen. Miles made his
last report he recommended that bicycle
courers be introduced into the Army, and
since that time arrangements were MADE
through the Army officers whereby many OF
the soldiers stationed at Fort Myer have been
enabled to obtain bicycles at such reduction
that the inducements for their purchase are
very great. Now an extensive effort to test
the practical uses of the bicycle through the
West, where the distances between posts are
very wide, is to be made in order to determine
how well the soldiers succeed in riding 20 or
| 100 miles day over country roads.

anxious to succeed himself at the pending

living ever treated so many cases of
