Anything BUT BRIGHT.
Such Is the Situation at Quincy, Mass

The Quincy Ledger says:-The ex-
odus of granite cutters from Quincy
has already commenced, and over 100
cutters have left town this week, for
places where the trouble has been set
tied. Fifteen left town in one bunch
Tuesday night, and another gang of
30 left town Wednesday night, and if
the present situation continues,
Ouincy's best cutters will be among
the missing.
These men have not all gone to the
same place however, although the lar

Quincy up to the present time have
gone south.

order has been filled.

A Pima story From Paraguay.

The puma or mountain lion Of the
Andes is naturally an affectionate and
harmless animal and is often domestl-
Gated, and some Of the ranchmen Ill
Patagonia and Chile often tame them
and train them for watchdogs. An ex-
traordinary story is told of tyrant
who ruled in Paraguay for many years
and was notorious all over South
America for his cruelty. 1t is said that
this ruler once had woman chalneo 10
a tree in the forest where she would
either starve or be devoured by via
beasts. After she had been out ABOUT
ton DAVIS he sent a scout to see what
was left of her, and, much to his as.
tonishment, it was found that she had
been fed and protected by two pumas'
male and female. and had suffered IN
no way except from exposure ana
fright. The pumas brought her raw
meat from the animals they had killed
and slept by her side each night like
watchdogs.-Chicago Record.

One fact impreSsive!y demonstrated
III the proress of the South African war
Is that the entire character of warfare
as spectacle has underone a radical
change within recent years. Battles
have lost much in picturesqueness and
glamour. Even so recently as in the
Franco Prussian conflict of 1876 and
in the Russo-Turkish war of 1877 bat
ties were still heroic subjects for the
painter. With some notifications, they
were quite as romantic and inspiring as
those of the earliest recorded wars
when armies advanced clad in steel
armor and men fought hand to hand
\ battle In the Franco Prusslan war
was tremendous spectacle of serried
masses of cloSe-ranked men, brilliant
uniforms, tossing plumes and banners
and officers leading with sabers in the
air and directing daShlng charges. The
day for this kind of warfare has passed,
and the whole aspect Of war, as a dra-
matte exhibition, has changed. The en-
gagements in South Africa bear no re-
semblance to those of past history. The
scene is unrelieved by a single dash of
color. The soldiers and officers alike
wear costume of a dun shade, which
blends easily into almost any back
ground. Not even shouder-strap Is
worn, and flags have been discarded
action, and no heroic drummer boys
lead the line of advance. Officers and
men alike carry rifles. and there Is no
saber- er-waving. The thrilling spectacle
of frontal assault, the advancing
force marching rhythmically shoulder
to shoulder, is entirely out of the ques-
ton. In fact, war has been robbed Of
most of its martial glory. 1t is a matter
of business-of manual labor in making
trenches, of keeping the laborers fed
of having good hospital service and Of
taking as few risks as possible The
man who stands up to be shot at may
he heroic, but he doesn't help win bat
ties; he isn't fighting on modern lines.
The modern soldier has absolutely no
chance at the kind of fighting which
consists in overcoming opposition by
exercising his own strength, \ diSin-
terested bullet from wholly impartial
and unprejudiced soldier mile away
may drop him while lie is wettihg his
lips with his canteen. Ills business Is
to take the fewest possible risks. to
work his rifle with mechanical ptecls-
ion and put up with any hardships incl
dental to the job. Tie modern soldier,
in fact, is no longer n sculptor's model;
he is an earnest laboring man, and dug
ing working hours he looks the part.
