The evening tribune. (Pawtucket, R.I.) 189?-190?, 1897-07-03

Sir John Drummond Hay was fine
horseman, and ON one occasion, having
been to interview the Moorish foreign
minister at Ell Araish, 60 miles from
Tangier, he desired to catch the outgo-
ing steamer which left next morning.
He had arranged that four relays OF
horses should be in readiness for his re-
turn. On obtaining his reply he rode
of. His escort, thoughtfully provided
by the governor Of Ell Araish were early
In the race left behind. They declared
that Sir John, after outracing them,
"spread large wings and few away" F"
He wore loose cape. On arriving at
the town Of Azaila, half way to Tangier,
he discovered that his relay was locked
up in the stable, and, summoning some
loafers, he battered in the door, OBJ
tanned his mount and rode on till he
came up to his own pony. On reaching
the river he jumped his pony into the
ferryboat and out again Oh the oppo-
site side and finally reached Tangier,
having ridden the distance in five hours.
On another occasion, when out with
his children, fanatic attacked him
and one of his children, and Sir John
struck the man with the cane he carried
such blow as stretched him seemingly
lifeless on the ground, only vouohsafing
the remark, "Take away the corpse. T"
| The crowd drew back, and the bigoted
pilgrim" was taken to the hospital
SO severe was the cut given by the cane,
a present from Sir Walter Scott to Sir
Johns father, that we are told that the
basha sent to inquire the nature of the
weapon which had caused so dangerous
wound. The companions of the fanatic
interceded for him, and Sir John, only
too ready to listen to them, had his as
sailant spared the bastinado. London

Sunday rows have grown so frequent
at Lakeside park and Summit Lake
park, near Akron, o., that the authori-
ties have decided to equip street car
rs travelling prison. The roughs who
take part in these fights know that the
officers at these resorts have no place to
put them If they should be arrested un-
til they can be taken into the city, and
many escape ON this account. Accord
ingly a street car will be equipped as a
prison so that prisoners can be kept in it
all day if necessary. This car will also
be used in lieu of patrol wagon when
necessity requires.

or ov,UvU square miles or territory at
cost of $40, 900, 900. This territory now
forms part of Arizona and New Mex
leo.
The last extension Of our national
territory was made in 1867, during the
administration of President Andrew
johnson, when Alaska was purchased
from Russia, the consideration being
1900, 900. In this purchase 1880
square miles were included. Recapitu-
lating, the various acquisitions OF ter
ritory to the United States have been
as follows:
From France, in 1908, 1,19S,OOO
square miles; So, $50 square miles from
Spain in 1919, 325, 900 square miles
from Texas in 1916, $50, 600 square
miles from Mexico in 1S48; 10000
square miles FROM Mexico in 1853, and
577, 800 squaremiles from Russia in 1867
making a total of 2,a39,07O square
miles. In view Of the fact that the
present area of the United States COM
prises only 5000, 900 square miles, it is
evident that our original territory en-
braced only 763,920 square miles, or
barely one-fifth the area Of our present
national domain. Atlanta Constitu-

THE CENTURY'S GAIN
TERRITORIAL ACQUISITIONS OF THE
UNITED STATES SINCE 1903.
Four-fifths Of the Area OF the Country
Has Been Acquired by Purchase or by
Cession--Louisiana Came First, Hawaii
May He the Next.

The proposition to annex Hawaii to
the United States naturally calls up
some brief review of our previous terri
torial acquisitions.
Not including the Pacific group of is
lands, which may or may not become
the property of this country, there have
been since the beginning OF the present
century not less than six acquisitions OF
territory to the domain OF the United
States. The first and most important
of these acquisitions was made in 1903
and is known as the Louisiana pur-
chase. Mr.. Jefferson, who occupied the
presidential chair at that time, nego-
tiated the purchase from Emperor Ma
poleon at cost of $15, $50, 900. While
the exact boundaries Of the territory
thus acquired are not preserved either
on the map or in the state records at
Washington something over /, 1873, 600
square miles were added to the national
domain, and from this vast extent of
territory the states Of Louisiana, Ar
kansas, Missouri, Iowa, North and
South Dakota, Idaho, Wyoming, Ore
gon and Washington have since been
carved, besides Oklahoma and Indian
Territory and parts of Mississippi, Colo
RADIO, Minnesota and Kansas.
Sixteen years elapsed before the next
opportunity to extend the borders OF
the United States presented itself. In
1919 President Monroe, at q cost OF &c.
900, 900, secured the purchase Of Flori-
da from Spain. While the acquisition
of Florida added 58, $50 square miles to
the national territory its real value con-
sisted in the fact that it gave to the
government one continuous coast line
from Maine to Texas
The next important acquisition was
made in 1645, when the republic OF
Texas became a member Of the federal
Union. The mere act of admitting Texas
into the sisterhood Of states cost the
government little, Of course, but the
frontiers of the state were not clearly
defined, and this led to the Mexican
war Of 1845-8, in which thousands q
American lives were lost and vas,
sums Of money expended. AS the resul
of the Mexican war, however, the Unit
ed d-States made its fourth acquisition o
territory, partly by way of indemnit
and partly by way of purchase.
Texas added to the national domain
some $4,000 square miles, while tn
territory acquired FROM Mexico adde
not less than 650,0 square miles
This latter area has since been carve
into the states of California, Utah an
Nevada and parts Of Colorado, Arizon
and New Mexico In addition TO tn
vast territory already mentioned tn
United States also acquired as the resul
Of the Mexican war q continuous Pacif
coagt line. Still another result Of th
Mexican war was the purchase in Isb

The Soryian Army.

A curious thing connected with the
Servian army is the manner in which
nearly all tho regiments carry the big
drum. Instead of being slung in front
of the man who plays it this instrument
is put upon small two wheel cart
drawn by large dog, the latter being
30 trained that he keeps his place even
through the longest marches. The
drummer walks behind the cart and
performs on the instrument as it goes
along. Each regiment has two or three
drums. but scarcely any Of the regi-
ments have band.
