Cavalry in Modern War.


From the CllcagO lIiLSS-l1 ei diu.
A good man on a good horse is the SUI
perior. as an attacking force Of three e.ood
men on the ground. This is a matter OF
common knowledge in the European capt.
falls. wherein mobs are dispersed by cav
airy using the fiat of the saber only, more
quickly than they are scattered by the
bullets of militia in America. There IS
something in the speed, weight ana SIZE OF

The uncomfortable instinct of the footman
is to get out of the way, and be gets out
of the way A cavalryman learns to love
his horse with a love surprising that OF
woman. He learns to depend upon him.
He absorbs confidence from every swell
of the giant muscles between his knees.
The man and beast conjoined furnish
mutual support that is admirable, and In
battle of incalcuable value. Dismounted
cavalry are the most difficult of troops to
dislodge, for the reason that the riders, de-
prived of their horse, do not know when
nor how to run.
Military experts believe that the inva-
sion of Cuba by the Am erican army will
furnish exceptional opportunities for the
use of cavalry. 1t is. for the most part,
a good horse country, Of wide fields and
level spaces Ii is believed, too, that this
picturesque arm of the, service will demon

theorists incline to he opinion that the

YANCEY CARTER A CAPTAIN.
The Big POpuIist to Raise a Company
of Six-Foot Immunes

Atlanta, Ga, June 3.-State Senator
Yancey Carter, the big Populist of Hart
county, has opened a recruiting Office at
the capitol to raise a company of i'm
munes" for Col Patrick Rays regiment.
Senator Carter was recently commits
stoned a captain for this purpose He
wants TO get up a company of men, all
of whom are six feet tall and built in
proportion. Carter is himself six feet two
in his socks and weighs over 200 pounds.
He is an athlete. and as a Texas cow
boy and deputy marshal in the Georgia
mountains he has acquired reputation
for daring that is likely to make him
conspicuous figure in the present clash, es-
pecaly if ne succeeds in forming his COM
pany of giants.
Personally the big Populist declares that
if he ever gets to The, front he win come
back colonel or be buried in Cuba.
Capt Carter has selected John Sibley OF
Triton for his first lieutenant and an At
lanta letter carrier named Scott for sec
ond lieutenant While Capt Carter says
he is now non-partisan, he has neverthe-
less taken the precaution to put none but
POpulist5 on guard so to speak, in his
command, Mr.. Sibley being leader of
long standing in the reform ranks and
Lieut. Scott being of similar political pre-
deliction.
Capt. Carter has established himself in
the Office of Secretary of State Clifton.
He does not expect to get all his men
from Atlanta or Hart county but says he
will take them from any place, if they
come up to the requirements.
Capt Carter originally tried to get a
place in Roosevelt's Rough Riders, but
failing there, he now propose to raise a
command that VIII rival that unique or
ganization.

FAST TRAVELLERS.
Light Is the Quickest, But EIectricI-
ty Is Close Second.


From the Philadelphia Record
The fastest traveller known is light,
which flashes through space at the rate of
1856, 1877 miles a second. 1t covers a dis
lance equal to seven and a half times the
circumference of the earth while one can
count quickly lone, two, three, four"
Electricity ranks next in speed to light
Under the most favorable circumstances
its velocity is the same as that of light
But in practical biography, owing to GER
tain resistance which it has to overcome
it lags little behind light.
Comets sometimes travel pretty rapidly.
When they are at a great distance from
the sun, toward which they are drawn by
its attraction, they jog along rather leis-
urely; but as they approach the sun they
move faster and faster, like a wheel that
is rolling down a hill. and if they pass
very close to the sun they may whisk by
il at a speed of over 800 miles second
The great comet of 1843 passed so near the
sun as almost to Craze its surface, and it's
velocity per second at perihelion was 342
miles Had it Travelled more slowly it
must have fallen into the sun.
The earth speeds In its orbit round the
sun al the rate of over 1900 miles a sec

is said that the frgate bird flies 200 miles
