LUCK OF THE scoRcHER.
rhe Reckless Rider Is Gifted with I'm
deserved Fortune I'm snny
Accidents.

Experienced wheelmen record with
dissatisfaction that science is on the
side of the scorcher whenever he fig
ures in collision with another cyclist.
To the casual observer it appears to be
pure luck that permits a reckless rider
TO come out OF an accident with less
| severe injuries than the innocent wheel
man or woman who is his victim. But
those who have given attention to the
matter say it is perfectly natural that
The scorcher does not get his share of
The bruises.
Opportunity for study of the prob
lem is given daily on the speeding
track at Garfield park. Tn busy hours
when the circular path is thronged
with riders, most of whom are going at
top speed, smash-ups are numerous
md yet serious results to cyclists are
few. But in the cases where persons
are injured il is almost invariably the
slower riders in the tangle who are
hurt.
The racers who work" on thelower
rim of the track find their territory
transgressed frequently by slow rid
ers, sometimes women, and while thev
generally manage to dodge the intrud-
ers or cause them to "move up" bv
yelling, collisions cannot always be
avoided. When they happen the per-
son struck rather than the strikers
suffer the more. This is the rule, al
though there arc exceptions.
In many instances the fast rider
who runs into another cyclist at an
angle viii manage to retain his seat.
though his wheel may be thrown out
Of its course, while the one struck. es-
pecially il he be going slowly, win be
knocked over. And this is why retribu-
ton so seldom overtakes the scorcher.

BRAVERY IN AN ARMY.
Fear Comes 10 Most Men, hut II Is
Overcome-rhe Percentage OF
Cowards il Small.

The question of the comparative nro-
portion of really brave men in any
army will probably never be deter
mined. Great officers on the continent
keep their knowledge on that subject
vigorously as u professional secret,
and assume as a certainty that all SOL
diers are brave. They know very we'll.
however, that they are not, and when
confidential will admit, as Marshal Won
Moltke once did in public, that with
a great number it takes discipline and
severe discipline, too, TO induce them
to face shells unshrinlingly. Ameri-
ran officers have been known to ac-
knowledge that of their men, who are
as brave as any in the world. 90 per
cent. would run away If they could.
and in every army, even ours, which a
man enters only of free will, there
Is a certain proportion who literally
rannot overcome their fears. They
are stricken with sort o9 paralysis.
The proportion is not high in any army.
the majority, if in health, being able
TO do their duty, and having intense
motives to do it; but neither is the
proportion high of those who literally
feel no fear.
There are such men, who do not
quite understand what the emotion is.
us there are also some who have in
extreme danger sense of pleasure.
which sometimes not only quickens
their blood, but distinctly increases
their intellectual force. This is said
to have been true of Gen. Picton. who.
though a hard, rough man, was an
"angel when bullets were about" and
was undoubtedly true ofthe first Lord
Cough, who had trick, thoroughly
lisaereeable to his stan, of seeking
points of full exposure to the enemy's
fire. The immense respect paid to such
men, in all armies, shows, however.
that they are exceptional, and, on the
whole, we believe that the opinion of
the first Sir Henry Havelock is very
nearly the truth. The writer once had
an opportunity during n discussion on
the utility of the Victoria cross Of
cross-questioning that famous general
on the subject. and never forgot his
reply. I'm my experience" he said.
in any British regiment there are al
ways hundred men who would storm
the gates of hell, 500 who, if they did
it, would follow in, 100 who want to
skulk in the bitches, and about 30 who
actually do slSullI there or elsewhere.

SENATOR GRAY'S OPINION

NOT IN FAVOR or THE UNITED
STATES KEEPING TERRITnpy
IN CONQUEST.
The retention of the Phi,lpnine rs
lands, which is now causing the atten-
ton Of statesmen of this country does
not find favor with Senator GRAY as
the senator when asked by re-
porter fer his opinion relative to the
matter yesterday, said: Il have little
to say on the matter, as It is too i'm
portant to be given slight oonsidera-
ton. But as it is against the laws of
our country to seek territorial domin-
ION, / am not in favor Of the United
states holding what she gains in con-
quest. We began this war for the sake
of humanity and not for conquest and
/ firmly believe that we would com
mand more respect from the foreign
countries, If we were to remain true
to one principle and not Incorporate
other countries into ours. The whole
world understands the meaning OF the
war with Spain as it was waged to free
all oppressed people and that is all.
We have gained our point, and It would
be contrary to one doctrine"
The Senator said that 1T would be
grand in the eyes OF the world for
America TO make a stand that in all
conflicts its purpose would not he a
war for conquest. We do not need it,
he said.
There was some talk In Washington
last week that President Mckinley
would appoint the Senator as a mem
Der Of the peace commission OF Paris.
Senator Gray Will probably accept If
appointed.

DESTRUCTIVE ARMY WORM.

Farmers living in the vicinity of Mil
ton, are alarmed to an unusual extent
over the ravages Of the army worm
which exceed anything of that charac-
ter on record in Sussex county. The
worst damage was done on Saturday of
last week, when the troublesome in
eects caused g loss of at least $3.50. On
Friday night it was not known that
the worm was in the neighborhood,
and nothing had occurred to warn the
farmers or put them on their guard.
BY Saturday night. however, they had
eaten five acres of millet, which had
been in an unusually healthy condi-
tiOn. The worms had eaten every blade
and top in the five acres, stripping the
stalks bare. The millet fields thus de-
vastated were the property of Samuel
]. Wilson and Thomas J. Adkins. The
latter's loss, it is said will aggregate
500. while the loss sustained by the
former is about $50, probably more.
