DISEASE.
He Falls Into a Refreshing
Sleep.

New York, March 2.-The condition
of Rudyard Kipling is very much i'm
proved. The crisis in the disease was
passed yesterday morning and the doe
tors announce that in every direction
an Improvement is noted. The patient
began to breathe more freely early
yesterday morning and after a few
hours dropped into a refreshing sleep,
the first in several days. Later his
temperature dropped rapidly from 104
to SO, which is about normal. Not
withstanding the crisis has passed Mr..
Kipling is by no means out Of danger,
pneumonia having affected the heart
and absolute quiet and abundant slim
ulation are necessary even after the
tide has turned. Should the present
Improvement continue and no relapse
occur, however, Kipling should be out
Of danger in a few days.

In landing a force on a hostile shore
a great deal more has to be provided

people who discuss an invasion, and
who seem to have an idea that the mat

to be landed at certain place. There
is no consideration of how they are to
get on shore with their arms guns and
ammunition; that merchant ships have
only few boats, and that artillery
cannot be transferred from ship to
