SOMETHING ABOUT ARMIES,
Artillcrymcn Were Once Regarded
as Mechanics. Not Soldiers.


Until the time of Charles MI of Swe-

part of the army. The men serving in
it were not soldiers, but regarded as
mechanics. The officers had no army

GERS a rank and regularly organized the
artillery into companies. The battle of
the gun IN the hands of the Spanish
infantry. The musket carried u two
ounce ball and sometimes brought
down at one fire two or three mailed
knights. The French sent a flag of
truce to demonstrate against the use of
such barbarous weapons.
Alexander had four kinds of cavalry
the light cavalry, carrying spears and
very light armor; the acrobalistn, or
mounted archers, used for outposts, pa
trolls and accommodating duty, and the
dimacloe, or troops expected to act eli
thcr as cavalry or infantry. Alexander
the Great reorganized his fathers ar

the unit; two files made a dilochy;
two dilochies made a tetrarcly; two

four of these u tla-phalangarchy. 9th.

self to bolster up his sinking spirits.
He went out to Hyde Park the other
night to dine informally With some
friends, and his hostess, who had been
married but II short time, put herself
out to entertain him. The dinner was
excellent, and the judge did full JUS
tice to it. They had coffee in the libra
ry, and the biggest, most padded lcath-
er chair was put at the guests dispos-
al. With a sigh he sank into it's cav
ernous depths and prepared for 81 luXu
rious evening With a good cigar ahead
of him. Brilliantly his hostess rambled
on. She told stories that We're witty,
and she gently deferred to his views,
but presently he left her to do all the
talking. In the midst of q striking ac-
! count of theater party she stopped
with a jerk. There was no response
and a dead silence punctuated only by
u gentle and regular breathing. The

There was no doubt of it. Nothing
could conceal the fact With one in

arose and majestically swept up stairs.

her. He had not expected her wrath
to last "Did-did you think you We're
