SUITS OF ARMoR.

The Last Battle In which They Were
Worn by European Soldiers.
The last occasion, 1t is believed, on
which suits of armor were worn in bat
tie by European soldiers was in 1870.
The incident. according to chrOniclers
Of the Napoleonic wars, took place in
that year, when a small French force
was holding the little fort at Aquilla
in the Abruzzi against rising of the
hostile peasantry of the district.
The French We're not strong enough
to fight their way through the lines Of
their opponents, who outnumbered
them 20 to /, while, as the latter had
no guns, the Frenchmen could hold
their position with confidence.
There were, however, left on the
space lying between the opposing
forces some dozen or so guns which the
beleaguered had not been able to take
with them into the fort.
An attempt was made by the besieg-
ers to remove these guns by means Of
a long rope worked by a capstan plac-
ed In n house a short distance away,
and, though their first endeavors re-
suited in failure. the French realized
that the ultimate capture Of the ord
nance would seriously Jeopardixe the
chances Of the fort holding out.
The necessity Of spiking the guns
was apparent, but a sortie In the face
Of the overwhelming musketry fire of
the insurgents was out of the question.
At this juncture an idea occurred to an
artillery officer He remembered hav-
ing noticed. In making an inspection Of
the magazine, some old plate armor,
and, selecting from the best preserved
II suits, he determined to try whether
they would not afford sufficient protec-
ton for his men to attempt to work I'M
der cover Of their own guns.
Twelve stalwarts, therefore. marched
out clad In this cumbrOus, unaccustom-
ed accOuterment, taking with them the
necessary tools, and succeeded in exc
cutting their purpose under a hail Of
bullets from the besiegers.
