Marcus D. Herring has been ar.
rested for embezzlement on com
plant of Frank Walton, editor OF
the Boise Sentinel, charging him
with with collecting money on
subscriptions and appropriating
the money to his own use. Herr
ing was employed by the Sentinel
company as travelling solicitor at
the enormous salary of Sic per
week and furnished with transport
tation. 1t is impossible for q travel
ing man to pay his expenses with
that salary and where this teacher
OF reform and advocate Of living
wages raked up sufficient nerve to
have a man arrested for stealing
enough to live on is q mystery.

Army and Navy Evolution.

iFJ
The latest style of soldier is not .as the
latest engine OF Mar.iiip, liable at any
moment to become a s~elf-stopping piece
OF machinery and on this particular
score a tremendous ST p%eriority rests with
the modern army over the modern fleet,
which has been SO reyoiutiouized o
top to bottom, inside and outside, as TO
be entirely unlike that of former times.
Suddenly enabled to view the century's
closing scenes, the hero of Waterloo
could have no difficulty in recognizing
any existing army 10 be an army; but
surely the hero OF Trafalgar would peed
a new pair of eyes before he could see a
fleet in the costly and rare naval mon
sters that now claim to rule the ocean,,
though admittedly alter ~ German

always las been an element OF Hncer-
tainty involved in sh%ip-fighting entirely

very different conditions under which
eatn OCCuTS. iHis eienicbt IL tiof iiiour-
ly increased by the actual structure OF
naval vessels, and the fact has been
clearly demonstrated, even in the slight
practise that has up to this time been
had with them. These Vessels afford
too wide a scope for chance TO get
in its work upon them, individually and
collectively. Maritime warfare must be
mainly of feet against fleet, since it is
not feasible for ships, under the present
changed conditions, n cope with land
forces solidly embarked and supported.
1t is in pnre fighting on the sea OF fleet
against flect that chance-work can sell
with terrible effect, because it cannot be
