A new inspiration to the Greeks-oth-
er than that great bond of sympathy,
their religion, which attached the vari-
Gus Greeks together during the six
tenth and seventeenth centuries-came
with the advance of culture in the end
Of the eighteenth and the beginning of
the nineteenth century. They began to
be animated by the feeling of national
ity The French revolution aroused
their minds into activity, and they
were ashamed that a nation which had
PLAYED such a grand part in the early
civilization of mankind should be slaves
of an illiterate and barbarous horde of
aliens-the Turks. From the fall of
Constantinople in 1453 till the end of
the eighteenth century almost all the
occasions on which the Greek people
appear on the page of the historian
are occasions on which they were
butchered or sold into slavery. Rec
ords tell only of their humiliation or
dispersion. Now. however they began
to summon energy to resist the Turks.
Secret societies were formed to make
ready for rising of the people. Patri-
otto songs further stimulated them, and
though they were twenty years buc-
king on their armor, they never lost
courage When the time was ripe they
marched forth and returned triumph
ant. Their war of independence, though
dearly bought. was victory worthy
the plaudits of the nobility of ancient
Greece.

This period was fruitful in artillery
progress everywhere. Horse artillery
had only been in use in England seven
years and the driver corps established
a little later. The battalion or regi-
mental guns We're abolished about this
time, and field batteries or "brigades"
of six guns were formed, horse artillery
battalions being styled troops. Military
drivers We're introduced, the horses
teamed in pairs, the drivers being
mounted on the off horses. while eight
gunners We're carried on the limbers
and wagons. The equipment was light
ened and simplified, the ammunition
was properly packed and correct sys-
tenn of maneuvers introduced. This
was soon followed by the invention of
shrapnel and the transformation of
the rocket from a mere signal to a de-
structive engine. All of these things
| greatly added to military power.

WAR coLoNELs REMEMBERED
Mir. Root in Favor of Retiring Deserv'

Washington. December 16-As indicated in his annual report, Secretary Root has renewed his efforts to secure the retire. ment, with an added grade of the army officers who have participated in the three wars the rebellion. the Indian wars and the Spanish-American war. He has in this the active support of the President.
 Inquiries have been direct ed to the Sem ate to ascertain whether 1t would ratify the nominations of number of the old war colonels who might be advanced to brigadiei ships through appointment of the two existing vacincies and immed- lately retired. If this line of action is approved one of the brigadierships would be kept permanently vacant to serve as an outlet for deserving colonels anxious to retire with an advanced grade
 In the event that this effort fails the secretary of war has made arrangements to secure the passage of a general re- tirement bill to fit such cases.
 This bill also provides for the appoint ment of lieutenant colonels on the re- tired list ofk'two major generals on the active list and one major general on the retired list, who have rendered distin guished service in independent commands of great responsibility during the recent military operations"

ROYAL FAMILY SECRETS.
Confidential Letters from Queen Vic.
 toria and Prince Albert.

From the London Truth.
 A few months ago the Empress Frede- rick caused her journals and her corre~ spondence to be destroyed. including an immense collection of letters written by Queen Victoria, most of which were, of course, of a strictly confidential nature The late Empress was no doubt anxious to prevent any possibility of repetition of the vexatious tracasseries which arose about the papers of the Emperor Frede- rick and caused so much trouble during the summer of 1888 until they were safe ly deposited among the Hohenzolern fam fly archives at Berlin. It is believed that the famous diary, about which there were such floods of gossip, was burnt shortly after this removal.
 It Is well known that Queen Victoria had a great deal of trouble and anxiety about the Prince Consorts confidential correspondence with his brother. the late Duke Ernest of e-Coburg-Gotha. Prince Albert wrote most openly to his brother, and his weekly letters were full of private family affairs and of social and political secret history. Ultimately Duke Ernest handed over the Princes letters to the Queen who also recovered her husbands correspondence with his cousin, the late King of Portugal.

PEOPLE CAN'T LEAVE
 HOUSES WITHOUT BOATS.

Wilkesbarre. Pa, December 16.-The high water in the north branch of the Susquehanna river is slowly receding, but people living at Westmore and the southern suburbs are unable to leave their houses without the aid of boats. The cellars of the houses on River street. the principal residence thoroughfare of the city, are filled with water. In the large office buildings and stores in close proximity to the river front, ordinary pumps were not sufficient to clear the premises of water and fire engines had to be pressed into service.
 At Brookside the sudden rising of a creek, which was fed by the backwater from the river, compelled the residents living there to desert their homes. The water reached the second story of their dwellings and they had to be taken out in boats.
 Traffic on the Central Railroad of New Jersey and the Lehigh Valley Railroad is still at a standstill.
