HARDTACK THEN AND NOW.
Old Time Brand Which Stopped Bui-
 lets Has Gone Forever.

Nothing so delights the veteran of the civil war just now as the relation of tales of woe concerning ''hardtack. He will expound the miseries suffered by himself and his comrades in their efforts at reducing the hard commits sary bread to such a degree of soft ness as would make it 'eatable. He can tell narrowing stories of the bis cuit It pleases him to tell gaping crowds how lives were saved because the men wore one or more of these bis cults inside their blouses. Bullets. ac- cording to the veteran, were turned back in their flight by the food.
 This same veteran has been eating soft bread ever since he left the army He would feel that soup is not soup if crackers were omitted from the bill. But when it comes to hardtack he grows positively eloquent. He can tell more about it even than he can of the mistakes made by the general who commanded his brigade, division, or corps during the war. If all the re- ports of the bread be reliable-and there is little reason to doubt part of their truth-the men did suffer to considerable extent.
 | But the hardtack of today, the off cial commissary hard bread now being issued to the troops, is by no means such bugbear. Men will eat bread, soft and faky, three times a day for all of their lives and never complain. The hardtack of today is really a very good article of food, made of the best of materials, and, aside from the mo- notony of such a diet, is easily eaten. It has none of the bad features ascrib- ed to it's predecessor, for it is nothing but cracker of fine wheat flour mixed with water. It is palatable and by no means so hard that man will lose his teeth in eating it.
 | By courtesy of Major o. M. Smith, commissary of subsistence in charge ot the depot in Chicago, reporter for the Chronicle was able to obtain a sup ply of the hard bread, as it is officsially designated. Not only did the reporter obtain the goods, but he also secured

SPANISH NEWSPAPERS.
Reasons for the Queer Things to be Found in Their Columns.

Spanish newspapers are queer things, even outside of their news about the United States, the Indians and what not, and their queerness is due as much to the public which they serve as to the inconceivable ignor- ance of willful dishonesty, or both, of the people who make them.
 It is said, for instance, that outside of the larger cities there is a large class of people who do not even know of the existence of the present crisis. To one unacquainted with Spanish cus- toms and manners it might seem strange that Spanish newspapers did not lay the whole matter before the people, but, according to the Boston Advertiser, there are some obstacles in the way of such a general campaign of education in Spain.
 In the first place, it must be remem- tered that less than one-third and only little more than one-four.h of the Spanish people can read or write An educated Spaniard is not the rule, but the exception. A newspaper among population more than two thirds of which can neither read nor write is not likely to have a tremend- ous circulation or unlimited power Even in the cities the circulation is not large. La Epocha, the conserva- tive organ of Madrid, for example, has a circulation of less than 5000 copies. Outside of Barcelona and Madrid there are perhaps 600 papers published in Spain, and not half of these pretend to be newspapers
 Indeed, out of all the 1900 periodi- calls published in Spain the scientific journals, religious papers and fashion papers are largely in the majority, while the newspapers are in the minor ity. Newspaper enterprise does not have much encouragement Foreign news is obtained chiefly from govern ment officials. The whole kingdom of Spain does not receive as many for eign dispatches in a week as are sent to a single city in this country in a single day. The average Spanish edi- tor does not see much use in paying for an interesting dispatch from abroad when the chances are about ten to one that when he gets the dispatch the press censor will not allow the paper to print it.
 All these facts must be borne in
