WAR CORRESPONDENTS NOR.
TALLY.

The corps which has suffered most
in the Boer war in proportion to it's
active membership is that of the cor
respondents. G.. w. Stevens and Mr.
Mitchell died at Ladysmith of fever:
T.. G.. Parslow was murdered at Mafe-
king: Alfred Ferrand was killed at
Ladysmith and T.. Finley Knight
wounded at Belmont, where he had his
arm amputated; Winston Churchill
was captured and escaped; Mr.. Lambie
was killed at Rensburg; Messrs. Helle-
well, Lynch and Hales were captured;
ICharles Hands and Julian Ralph were
Severely wounded. The mortality
among correspondents in the Turco-
Russian war was sixty per cent and in
the Chino-Japanese war about thirty
five per cent. We are not advised as to
the figures of the Spanish American
and the Philippine wars though the
list of press casualties must be large.
Although IL used to be the notion,
sedulously cultivated by the journals
which could not afford to be enterprise
ing, that war correspondents stayed in
the rear of armies writing the camp
gossip of fights they had not witnessed
the truth is that they run more risks
than an equal number of active soldiers
do. Take a battle, for example. When
the enemy assaults the center of the
line. the correspondents ride there and
get under fire, where they can see
things. III the attack shifts to the
right they go there. leaving the SOL
diers OF the center formation to rest
at ease: then IL the enemy strikes at
AA 90 - nnrraonOV1art, -
way at a headlong gallop. AS a result
each correspondent gets into three bat
ties TO each soldiers one.
Emulation among the news-seekers
leads them to take extraordinary risks
I'm the private quest of news, especially
as scouts. The location of an enemy's
outpost Is not precisely known. The
boldest correspondents make up their
minds to find II out first, and the videt-
ties OF their Generals command are dis
tracted by the sight of stealthy civil
lians. armed with passes they must re-
spect. making their way into the clos
est proximity to the enemy's lines.
Much that the pressmen do is fool
hardy. but the esprit du corps of these
writer's, due to mutual watchfulness
and criticism. to the professional fear
OF being beaten by a rival and being
recalled In disgrace by the managing
editor at home, makes them accept any
risk which leaves a loophole of escape.
The result is fatal to large numbers Of
them; but, as Bismarck used to say,
when an omelet Is 10 be made some
eggs must be broken" People must
know what Is going on though the mar
rator falls by the way.

Magnanimous Roberts.

The best of all the handsome tributes
that are being paid to General Lord
Roberts nowadays comes from his van
quished foes. Here is an instance of his
magnanimity, shown to Commandant
Wolmarans,s who was captured with
Cronje:
ITO Commandant Wolmarans-I have
much pleasure in acceding to your re-
quest to be allowed 90 keep your horse,
which you have ridden for so many
years, and have given orders that ii
should be sent with you to Cape Town,
and kept at Government expense until
your release.

Might Have Saved Them,

Charles c. Steiner, a New York artist,
and his wife, who was Jennie Flanders,
have died in Mexico, where they went
some time ago when Mr.. Steiner re-
ceived an order to decorate the walls
of the palace of Chapultepec. His sue
cess had led to their making their home
in Jalapa. There was a visitation of
smallpox in that town, and Mr.. Steiner,
disbelieving in vaccination, would not
be vaccinated when his wife was, and
he was taken with the disease and died
May 9TH. Mrs. Steiner died of grief
twenty days later.

The listing of sugar stocks in the
New York market would undoubtedly
be a good thing for those who have
them for sale. AS Col. Macfarlane
points out. the local and San Francisco
markets are congested and the offer of
a 500. 900 block Of stock, even of a divi-
dend-paying plantation. may cause
prices to fall. In New York millions
could change hands without bringing
on a bear movement.

Lafayette Dollars Are Costly.

If you want to buy Lafayette dollars
in New York you. must pay $3.50 to IS
apiece for them. They are quoted at
those prices in Wall street. There are
only about 1000 of the dollars available
for the entire country, so that New

To Cure Insomnia.

An English physician of distinction
gives these suggestions for cure OF In
somnia: In cases where the patient
sleeps for an hour or two. then wakens
with start and cannot go to sleep
again the physician recommends that
hot water compress be laid on the ab-
domen. When one cannot go to sleep
ON retiring and is unable to dismiss
thoughts that have occupied the day. 1t
is advised that the patient keep his
feet in water as hot as he can bear
comfortably for ten minutes before 60
;nS to bed. He should then put on
pair of thin cotton hose wrung out OF
cold water and over those a pair OF
woolen ones. A more powerful remedy
is mustard sitz bath. with the proper
ton of teacupful OF mustard to q gal
lon of hot water. He should remain
seated IN the bath from 10 to 20 min
utes. In many cases reclining bath
In tepid water is useful as sedative.
