 Bear Arms.
The Com 11anding General Believes Our Greatest Weakness Lies In ths Lack of WariiSs Accouter- ments of Modern Design.

London. Oct. 2-In an interview to- day General Nelson A. Miles was asked whether the United States un- der it's military policy would be able to cope with a European power. Gen eral Miles replied:
 ''In any population it is estimated that one man out of five is capable of bearing arms. That would give the United States an army of 12,000,0 900. Our people are strong physically and generally intelligent and well in- formed Besides that, uach citizen is a sovereign and personally interested in the welfare of his government, and serves voluntarily without being farced into service by military des- potism We have many thousands of men still living who have seen more war, participated in more battles than any man in Europe. But it is another thing to equip an army with modern appliances for defense of the coast, where we would have to use high-power guns and modern projec- tiles, which it takes years to con struct. Modern rifles are different from the squirrel guns with which our revolutionary fathers went to war. The range of modern arms is very great and the projectiles heavier. The Maxim and gatling guns fire four hundred to six hundred shots min ute. Although these are American inventions they are largely used in European service"

along Princes street ia a kilt of royal
Stewart or Lennox tartan and usually
has a red coat with a dark vest, over the
front of which he wears an embroidered
belt of scarlet silk instead of plain
leather. He is gorgeous with dirks,

ments, and he lets his nair fall to his
shoulders under a bonnet that is a cross
between Glengary and Balmoral and
trimmed with feathers"

not a crank. He is a level headed, we'll
