SCIENTIFIC WARFARE.

No one has yet been heard to contra
dict General Sherman's statement that
"war is hell" Men who have been to
war feel that he has covered the whole
ground briefly, but cogently; that he has
told the history of all battle-fields in an
epigram. Men who have not been to
war, and especially men who don't want
to go, are willing to accept his verdict on
faith.
Yet war, as General Sherman saw it
during our recent Civil conflict, and
which he described in that blunt soldier
fashion that has become famous, was a
mild and idle pastime compared with
the battle-scenes that will be presented
when nations war together with our
modern methods of warfare.
Science dominates the situation at
this end of the century, and victory is
won for country, not by the ingenious
plans of the navy department, the clever
scheming of gold-laced Generals, or the
bravery and daring of the men in the
ranks, but rather by the man who has
never "smelled gunpowder," except in
making experiments-the student, the
electrician, the man in the workshops,
whose battles are all fought with the
forces of nature.-From "Our Newest
Appliances of War;" by Mary Annable
Fanton, in Demorest's Magazine for
June.

SPARKLING PUNs OF THE WAR

Native Yankee wit has found expires
sion over our great victories in the wa
in number of red hot puns. Some O
them are:
Spain has recently made some import
ant additions to her navy but they are
all in her submarine fleet.
The Spaniards can't sit on the grass
any more at Manila.
Why?
It's too Dewey.
Why did the last troop transports to
the Philippines carry exactly 1854
chickens?
To lay for Manila.
What would you do ifyou were fishing
and Spanish fleet came up the bay?
Pull my line and sink-'er.
What relation is Admiral Sampson to
Uncle Sam?
Uncle Sans son.
Why do they spell Manila with only
one 'l'' now?
Because Dewey knocked cell" out of
it.
One of the Oregon Volunteers came
near being court martialed the other
day.
Why?
He was out in the stables combing out
horse's tail and he forgot the name
(Maine).
What is Dewey's favorite game?
Philippine.
Do you know that they are talking of
closing the libraries on account of the
war?
No, why?
Because they contain so many maga-
zines.
Do you remember the Johnstown dis
aster?
Oh, yes; quite distinctly.
Try and forget it and Remember the
Maine.
Spain had better sue for peace, while
she has a piece of country left.
. The Vesuvius is like tightening; it
never strikes twice in the same spot :;
chiefly for the reason that the spot isn't
there.
All the matter with Cervera was he
needed something for that tired feeling.
He took Oregon pills fired, from her 49,
inch guns and he don't need any more
fixing.
Was the ocean ever frozen over?
Yes, when the Spaniards went Schley-
ing off Santiago harbor, and it was not
cold day either.
Schley old Sampson can Dewey thing
or two.

Col. Bryan, of the 3rd Nebraska
regiment, has an experienced SOL
.dier for his lieutenant-colonel, in
the person of Gen. Victor Vifquain,
native of Belgium, who came to
the United States before the civil
war, enlisted in the Union army,
rose to the colonelcy of the o7th
Illinois volunteers, and was brew
eted brigadier-general for galantry
in the field. When Bryan asked
him if he, veteran, would take
second place in the regiment, Gen.
Vifquain replied: "If man who
came within few votes of being
commander-in- chief of the army
and navy of the United States car
take the position of colonel, 1 GER
tainly can afford to take the position
of lieutenant-colonel under him.

DOES THIS APPLY TO YOUp

Here is what Peter Cooper, who
died worth many millions, said of
a newspaper: "In the towns where
a newspaper published every man
should advertise in it, if nothing
more than a card stating his name
and the business he is in. 1t does
not only pay the advertiser, but it
let's the people at a distance know
the town in which you reside is a
prosperous community of business
men. AS the seed is sown so the
seed recompenses. Never pull
down your sign while you expect
to do business.

JACK PoRTER's RIDE.

Listen my children and you shall hear
Of a wonderful ride that has cost much
beer.
] Twas the 4th of July, '98,
There is scarcely man, small or great,
In that quiet village of Newport town
That, as Sam Irwin says, "by the sea lies
down."
But remembers that awful day and year,
Jack Porter said to his friends one night,
Should Toledo celebrate let's all get tight,
And when we all get up good steam,
We will drive up there with our iackase
team.
So he said good night, and withouta stop,
He silently strobe to his butcher shop,
And there he sat up all night long,
Making some harness good and strong
So that he and his friends with jest and
song,
Might drive jackasses to Toledo town.
Meanwhile his friends through alley and
street
Wander and listen with eager ears,
Till in the silence around them hears,
The racket of Porter at the old barn door,
The sound of a low and muttered curse,
And once and while something worse,
AS Jack slips around on the old barn
floor.
Beneath in the harbor lay the boats,
Snugly tied up to Matthews wharf,
Where the river widens to meet The Bay,
Right where Jack McCullum fell in one
day,
And went down ker plunl1, like load of
shoats.
1t was six by the village clock,
When they worked their passage out of
Newport town,
They heard the Growing of Bensells cock,
And the bark of Sylvester's dog,
And felt the damp of the river fog
That rises after the moon goes down.
1t was seven by the village clock,
When they got to the top of old Fall
Street
They saw the gilded weather cock
Swim in the morning sun as they passed,
And the meeting house windows blank
and bare
Gazed at them with spectral stare
AS if they already stood aghast,
At the horrible sight they looked upon.
1t was eight by that same old clock
Before they got to the edge of Newport
town
Then they heard the bleating of the flock,
And the twittering of birds among the
trees,
AS they eat their breakfast of sausage
and cheese,
And they smelt their breath in the morn
ing breeze,
Blowing over their whiskers down.
And one was safe and asleep in his bed,
Who on the road would be first to run
Who that day wished that he was dead
Before he heard the outfit come.
You know the rest, if you don't you
ought,
How Jack and his tllllcums swore and
fought,
How the jackasses gave them bray for
bray,
From the bottom and top of each hill on
the way,
Trotting for four rods down the lane
Then baking at the foot of each hill
again,
Under the trees at each turn on the way,
And only pausing to kick and to bray.
1t was noon by the same old clock,
When they finally got to Toledo town,
And tireder, madder, ornrier set
Never drove into Toledo yet,
And the Jackasses wore look of pain,
On the side of one was, Remember the
Maine"

is somewhat laughsbls. Fonr years
ago when the Times failed 10 its effort
to nominate It's pet for county clerk
and to defeat its enemy, Charley Pat
terson. for county attorney, it bolted
the ticket and helped the repu blicsns
TO cleo, their nominees for those posi-
tions. 1t was warranted in the part it
took against Patterson, on the plea Of
public policy, but in the other case the
reason was not, democrstically speak

friend OF this same man Patterson.
