A farmer drove to a Spring street
grocery store the other morning and, att
or diSposnb of some of his produce, was
about to drive away, when his attention
was attracted to a bushel bas6etful II
tuberose bulbs. which the grocer, who
also handles some florists supplies, had
on exhibition in front of his store. The
bulbs were of large size, with an album
dance of flowing roots.
"What might those things be-" asked
the farmer picking up one of the bulbs
and examining it in curious way.
The grocer explained that they were
tubcrose bulbs aud could either be
planted carly in the spring or later in
the season, requiring both good soil and

FEATURES OF FUTURE WARS
Remarkable Predictions of n French
mnn Vow Being FULFILLED.

It is pointed ont by Il. T.. G. Long that
NJ. Bloch, in his work on future wars,
which is said to have influenced the car
when he decided TO call together The
Hague congress, predicted what would
happcn II two white races opposed each
other. Mr. Long reproduces that part
of the prediction which relates particular
" TO tactics and strategy. NJ. Bloch's
predictions were as follows, and it is a
remarkable fact that they have been full
filled to the letter in the South African
war.
THAT the war Of the future would be n
war OF sieges and intrenched positions.
"That to carry out frontal attacks
would be impossible without immense
losses and great superiority in numbers,
and that it would. therefore, seldom be
rcsorted to.
THAT with equality in numbers modern
war would last longer than past wars.
THAT decisive victories would be rare,
the beaten side Immediately taking up
fresh positions in the rear which would
be prepared in advance.
THAT artillery would be put out of ac-
ton by sharpshooting rflemen, who
would kill off horses and men.
THAT adequate reconnaissance would
be almost impossible and that an enemy's
position would only be revealed by the
vollcys from their trenches.
That even then, owing to the use Of
smokcless powder. it would be impossible
precisely to locate them.
THAT attempts TO surprise an enemy
would often Jesuit in counter surprises,
THAT int-enchments constructed for
protection against modern artillery and
rifle fire would be invisible.
THAT the loss in officers would be alb
normally large.
"That ambulance work, owing to the
great range of modern weapons, would
have to be carried on under fire with the
result of mutual accusations of abusing
the Red Cross llug. '-Exchange.

FROM THE PEOPLE.

places. He says that 1.-The subjugation of
Aguinaldo would result In turning Amerf-
can bayonets against American breasts
and that IL We plant our nag in the Orient,
you can only expect that the soldiers sent
ecross the Pacific viii return and you peo-
pie of the Pacific coast will first feel their
bayonets"
The above expressions remind me very
much of what copperheads and coppe-head
sheets throughout the country were saying
during the civil war. We were told that
when the soldiers returned all civil govern
ment would be overturned; that the mill
tary would assume control and that the
soldiers would be lewless horde, turned
loose upon suffering people. who would
wrest from them the remnant OF liberty
they then enjoyed.
Now let US look for one moment with
calmness, IL We possibly can be calm TN
der circumstances Of this kind, and see
what warrant or justification there is for
this outrageous statement and insult 10 the
American soldier contained in the remarks
of this would-be president. Can there be
any reason to believe that the American
soldier has so changed that he viii not
do as he has done in the past? Does his
tory anywhere tell of the old soldier of the
civil war when he returned, that he turned
his bayonet against his neghbors? Is II
not true that the world heheld one or the
grandest spectacles that history has record
ed, in seeing more than million soldiers
returning to their various walks in life,
and at once assuming the duties and per-
forming faithfully all of the obligations Of
good citizenship?
When our boys, the Washington voun-
teers returned from Manila the people
turned out in mass to meet them and

anyone suppose that we were warming

any one heard of any act of lawlessness
on the part of the Washington regiment
since its return to the state OF Wasning-
ton? Certainly not These boys went TO
Manila; they performed their duty as sol
diers should. and have earned and received
the unbounded respect and honor Of our
people. MIR. Bryan knows, and every per
