in which, after saying the governme ut

a fact, however painful, he adds:
"rhe government remains assured
that the surrender will not discourage

the republics have indicated them
selves as All independent people. This

One fact impressvely demonstrated
in the profess of the South African wa.
Is that the entire character Of warfare
as spectacle has underone radical
change within recent years. Battles
have lost much In pict,lresqueness and
glamour Even so recently as In the
Franco Prussian conflict Of 1870 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
A battle in the Franco prussian war
was a 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 dashing charges. The
day for this kind Of warfare has passed
and the whole aspect Of war. as dra
matte exhibition. has changed. The Ell
gagements In South Africa bear NO re-
semblance to those OF past history. The
wear costume Of dun shade, which
blends easily into almost any back.

worn, and flags have been discarded
Troops are almost never played into
action, and no heroic drummer boys
lead the line Of advance. Officers and
men alike carry rifles, and there is nc
ho,s inn Nhn NJ
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 a good hospital service and of
taking as few risks as possible. The
man who stands up to be shot at may
be 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. A disin.
terested bullet from wholly impartial
and unprecedented soldier mile away
may drop him while he Is wetting his
lips with his canteen. His business is
to take the fewest possible risks, to
work his rifle with mechanical precis.
ion and put up with any hardships Incl.
dental to the job. The modern soldier,
in fact. is no longer n sculptors model;
he Is an earnest laboring man. and dur.
ing working hours he looks the part.

number Of cases of blindness occurring
