SURPRISE THEIR FRIENDS.
J. D. schmelling and MISS Maude Priddis
Announce Their Marriage.

Quite little furry was caused this
morning when the announcement was
made that J. D. Schmel1ing, the sales
man at the Miller & White grocery
store and Miss Maude Priddis, a
daughter of Alderman and Mrs. John
Priddis, had been married some time
ago.
The young people are not very COM
municative in regard to the wedding,
and the facts of time and place have
not been made public, but it is stated
that they were married in Kenosha
two weeks ago. At this time Miss
Priddis was living with her sister,
Mrs. Chas. Pfennig, but nothing was
said of the wedding until a few days
ago, when the young couple announced
that they were going to housekeeping
in a coy little home on Fremont ave
nue..
Of course they have the full forgive
ness and blessing of both families and
ali their friends will be pleased 70 pre-
sent rather tardy congratula tons.

An official statement issued by the
India Office of the wars and military
operations on or beyond the borders Of
British India in which the government
of India has been engaged since 1S49"
gives some surprising information. On
no fewer than 10 distinct occasions
have the British soldiers been called
upon for active service, which shows
an average for that period of rather
more than two wars per annum. In
this list all wars and expeditions in AZ

Greatest Novelty at Paris.

The great celestial globe" OF the
Paris exhibition which caused the
crowd to throng the foot bridge across
the avenue Suffren Sunday in num-
bers so great that the frail structure
fell, is the greatest novelty of the ex-
hibition. 1t is an immense sphere,
$50 feet in diameter. resting upon fouE
solid masses of masonry and piling.
.On its surface are the signs Of the
zodiac, the objects whence they take
their names, the principal constella-
tons and other illustrations Of the
heavenly chart. At night the elabo-
rate design is brought out wildly by
electric devices. Within the great
globe is smaller one, thirty feet in
diameter, representing the earth and
automatically exemplifying its diurnal
rotation. An ingenious mechanical
instrument gives the Illusion of the
moon in her nightly promenade. The
machinery presents a complete side
real picture and story, with at certain
moments the phenomena of eclipses.

through the interior. They can alight

Mie5 of Road.
Few persons have any notion OF the
vast length OF an army on the march.
A single battalion of infantry, 1000
strong-which Is the strength Of an
English battalion-takes up a road
length Of 525 yards, including about so
yards for stragglers. A battery Of field
artillery takes up eco yards, and reg
iment OF cavalry takes up, when
marching four abreast, $50 yards. An
army corps, with It's staff, wagons,
guns, hospitals. etc. would extend
over thirty-four miles Of road. An
army marches slowly on the best Of
roads It is much more firing march
ing in a crowd than walking alone.
Soldiers go at the rate Of about two
and one-haf or two and three-quarteF
miles an hour, and in the English ar
my they do a good days march when
they cover 10 miles. This accounts for
the fact that when news is printed of
an army marching to attack surprise
is expressed that the attack is delayed
so long. It takes a day or more for all
the men to assemble on the battle
field.
The rates of march for the various
arms differ, of course; but the fastest
arm has to suit its pace to the slow
est. Here are the English official
rates: Infantry in small bodies. three
miles an hour; infantry in large
bodies, two and a half to two and
three-quarter miles; cavalry, walking
four miles; cavalry, trotting, nin'
miles; cavalry, galloping, Is miles; ar
tillery, walking, three miles; artillery
trotting, eight miles. In our army thu
average march for infantry is from 1
to 20 miles a day. When troops NOV
