Are We More Courageous.

There can be little doubt but that the
character Of modern warfare and modern
weapons develops the highest types of
personal courage. The terrible destructive
ness of the quick fire maxim guns, the
long and deadly range of the newest rifle
and the devastation of the torpedo, all call
forth moral courage which was unneces-
sary in the days of fierce hand to hand con-
flict.
The courage required to coolly work the
machine guns amid a hurricane Of bullets,
or to dash across an uncovered tract of
country where every inch is plowed with
shot and tho mathematical possibilities Of
escape are infinitesimal Is Of much high
er type than that requisite in hand to
hand struggle with knife or spear, sword
or lance.
The first calls for moral courage, the
second only animal courage. When the lust
Of fight and tho heat of battle make mans
blood run riot, he will struggle with his
fellow man with all the pluck that Is In
his nature. Two dogs will do virtually
the same. Seize one Of the dogs, he will
turn on you pluckily. Stone him, the
probability Is that he bolts. ts.-Pearson's

states extremely important iesfsiation
has been enacted for the assistance and
benefit Of the league.
The proposed changes In the constitu-
tion Of the league are. some of them, OF
q very radical nature. and are liable to
cause great deal Of discussion. One
proposed by Mr.. Gideon. chairman OF the
racing board, will undoubtedly be
passed. % as to stop the friction which
exists between college athletic clubs and
the wheelmen. The proposed amend
nient will except college riders In col
lege races from the rules Of the l.. A. w.
In regard to training and travelling ex-
penses, by allowing these races to be
held under the auspices Of. and the rules
of, the intercollegiate Athletic associa-
tion. This amendment will really only
put bicycle riders upon the same basis
as other athletes. Some Of the other
changes proposed are: The changing of
the rules by which all authority shall be
vested In the national racing board, the
admitting Of professionals into the
league, the sanctioning of female bicycle
racing, the entrance Of the league into
political life upon questions affecting
bicycle riders, and the permitting OF
Sunday racing In southern and western
cities.

Something About General Sheridan's Fa-

Something About General Sheridan's Fa-
nous Black Warhorse. ss
In January, 1876, General Sheridan sent
the following letter to friend:
"In regard TO the black horse, 1 am glad
to state that he is still living and Is now in
my stable. He has been a pensioner for
the past eight years, never being used save
in the way of necessary exercise He is of
Black Hawk stock, was foaled at or near
Grand Rapids, and was brought into
the army by one of the officers Of the
Second Michigan cavalry, of which regi-
ment was the colonel in 1862. Early in
the spring of that year, while the regiment
was stationed at Rienzi, Miss, this horse
was presented to me by the officers of the
regiment, and at that time was rising
years old. Consequently he must be near
ly 10 years old now. He is over II hands
in height, powerfully built, with deep
chest strong shoulders, has n broad fore
head, clear eye and is an animal of great
intelligence. In his prime he was one of
the strongest horses have ever known,
very active and the fastest walker in the
army, so far as my experience goes.
81 rode him constantly from 1862 to the
close of the war in all the actions and in
all the raids as well as campaigns in which
L UOOk ptru. nc WIS never Ill, ana MS stay
ing powers were superb At present he is
a little rheumatic, fat and lazy, but he has
fairly earned his rest, and so long as live
he will be we'll taken care OF"
In October, 1878, the famous horse died,
and Sheridan then made slight addition
to Winchester's biography, saying: "He al
ways held his head high and by the quick
ness of his movements gave many persons
the impression that he was exceedingly
| impetuous. This was not the case for I
could at any time control him by firm
hand and u few words and he was as cool
and quiet under fire as one of my old SOL
diers. 1 doubt If his superior as a horse
for field service was ever ridden by any
one."
Herman Melville, Buchanan Read and
many other writer's have made this horse
the subject Of poems, and several sculptors
and painters have delineated him in mar

Arbitration Comes Up In Senate Today-.-can
vas OF Electoral Vote.

Washington, Feb. S.--Senator Morgan
pursued his plan, and moved to take up
the Nicaragua canal bill during the
morning hour today He exrects thl
motion to be Sptagonized. and. in that
event, will secure vote which will, he
thinks, demonstrate the voting strength
of the canal bill. He expects the vote
to be largely in the majority. but, what
ever the result. he probably will an
rounce his abandonment OF the bill for
the present session., on account of the
determined obstruction to it's passage,
while at the same time he will declare
his purpose to press the measure with
more determination than ever at the
next session.
al bill from it's present place at the head
o' the calendar will leave the way open
for taking up other measures pressing
for consideration. The diplomatic and
consular appropriation bill has already
been reported, and there will be an eff,
fort to secure attention to 1t today. The
appropriation committee expect to have
the Indian and agricultural bills re.
ported by Wednesday, and will ask for
early consideration. Senator Thurs.
ton will seek the first opportunity to con-
clude his speech on the Pacific railroad
resolutions, Senator Morrill, has given
notice of his intention to advance the bill
to prohibit the sale of liquor in tho
Capitol, and Senator Sherman will abide
by his decision to ask the senate to GO
into executive session early today, for
the purpose of considering the general
arbitration treaty with Great Britain.
AS soon as these matters will permit,
there will be an effort to proceed with
the bankruptcy bill, and it is not expect.
ed that there will be any avowed op.
position to consideration. The proceed
ings relative to the arbitration treaty
will be held in executive session, and will
he long and animated.
Wednesday, the senate will join with
the house to see the count of the electora.
vote.
Senator Lodge hopes to get up the con.
ference report on the immigration bill
as soon as the house acts upon it,
which he thinks will be done the latter
part of the present week.
The feature of the week in the house
will be the ceremonies on Wednesday
on the occasion Of the counting Of the
electoral votes and the formal pro.
mitigation of the election Of Mckinley
and Hobart by the vice president of thu
United States. 1t is a state occasion
but of very formal character. Unless
the Notifications or sundry civil bill
Is reported the house will have no appro.
priation bill to consider this week and
most Of the time will be devoted to
such bills as the various committees
may present and the conference reports
There are three contested election cases:
Beatty VS.. Price, from Louisiana; Hop.
kins vs. Hendricks, from Kentucky; and
Bennett vs. Boatner, which probably will
be decided. In each case the majority
report favors the sitting member, a
Democrat, and little time will be con-
sumed in disposing Of them.
