NEW IMPLEMENT OF WARFARE.

Invention by a Pole Which Renders
Destructive Weapons Useless.
The greatest benefactor of modern
times may be found in poor Polish
chemist named Simon Pavlowski, of
Warsaw. This obscure chemist has in
vented new gas, which, if used in the
battles of the future, will put an end
to the horrible mutilations and terrible
deaths on the battle field, says the New
York World.
The battles of the future will be the
harmless bursting of Pavlowski shells,
filled with gas which, as soon as fired
from its gelatine cage, will permeate the
atmosphere breathed by the enemy and
lull them into 15-hours' sleep, from
which they will not awaken until their
standards have been seized by the OPP
posing army and their sleeping bodies
removed to place of safety.
The gas invented by Pavlowski is an
anasthetic which is forced into a shell
made of geletine. When the latter
bursts in the ranks of the enemy this
gas escapes, rendering every soldier in
the immediate vicinity soothinely un-
conscious for long time, but with no
other injury than to incapacitate him
for the time from working against the
opposing army

scene of the battle they saw the trees
plentifullyy scared, and presently
found and buried the bodies of Love

Indians, after their usual custom. had
carried off or hidden their own dead;
but Tyng's men discovered three of
them buried together. and one of
these was recognized as the war CHI lef

Mai. Gen. Nelson A. Miles, command

think that you may say that all the Off
GERS and men who have ever been on
duty with Gen. Miles respect and adj
mire him forhis manly qualities, superb
courage, military genius and perfect
integrity.
'One thing you may emphasize, and
that is the fact that all young West
Pointers who have served with Miles
love him and swear by him. He has
had the loyal and earnest support as
well as the affection OF the young Off
GERS who have been SO fortunate as to
see actual cam paigning with Miles
as their commanders. His strongest
friends in the army to-day are
West Pointers. The old prejudice
against volunteer officers is fast dying
out. 1t is dead, so far as Gen. Miles is
concerned. I am West Pointer my
self, and tell you not even Napoleon
had the confidence and admiration OF
his soldiers more than Gen. Miles has
had from his officers and men, and I
am one of them who would cheerfully
obey any order coming from him, no
matter what peril might be in the i'm

lost battle in his life, either in the
