CONCERNING INFANTRY AT


1t is hard to find a single writer who
regards infantry attack in the face of
modern rifles with the confidence of
Colonel Maude. Nearly all agree that
to mass men in order to strike a blow
in the Napoleonic sense is impractical
BILE nowadays. The needlegun was suf-
ficient to make it impossible for the
Austrians in 1866. But even if vic
tory should ensue, is there any rea-
son to expect that it will be decisive
in the Napoleonic sense is impra ctica-
in which the word can be employed?
Will it yield important results in cap
tured men and guns, or will the de-
feated side always have the opportuni-
ties which the Beers employed so well
for withdrawing their forces in safety
with slight losses? There is every rea-
son to believe that the latter will be
the case Even the ll-trained French
mobiles of 1901 were seldom dis
posed of in single attack Driven
from one position they invariably took
up another The undisciplined Beers
who were precisely a force among
which we should expect rapid demon
alization after defeat, did the same
The whole course of the South African
war seems to show that, owing to the
great distance between the comba tants,
defeat can seldom be converted into
rout, and that it is possible for a weak
rear guard to hold back pursuing cav
airy for a long time after the main
body of the vanquished has disappear
ed. In short, every indication leads
to the conclusion that the vision of
single decisive battle, by which, as in
the days of Napoleon, a, whole nation
can be brought to it's knees, Is an H.
fusion quite incompatible with, the ac-
tual state of military scence.-Jean
de Block in the National Review.

The many friends of William and EN-

ALLIED TROOPS AT ODDS
ANOTHER SERIOUS CONFLICT At
TIENTSIN,

British Indian Troops-Fear That Lee

Fire In the Forbidden city Caused
by Ltghtning-ReIief Distribution.
Pekin, June Tt is learned that
there was another conflict at Tientsln
on Wednesday night between the Brit
ish Indian and French soldiers, VINO
have been treating each other with
mutual contempt The Indian troops,
who had been insulted and hustled
about by the French, retaliated by fir
ing on the latter, killing two and
wounding five. These collisions would
seem to indicate that similar affairs
are likely to occur between the inter-
national legation guards, against which
no precautions have been taken.
Three Chinese officials, including one
of the governors of Pekin, have inves-
tigated the fire in the Forbidden City
on Tuesday night, and have decided
that it was caused by lightning. Sew
eral buildings were destroyed.
The committee having charge of the
money furnished by the Christian
Herald for the relief of distress in va
rious provinces has received authority
from that paper to use it's discretion in
the distribution of the money. The
committee has therefore decided to di-
vide the money thus The Revs. At

RIOT AT ST. LOUIS.
Democratic Primary In THAI City Was the
Cause of Great Disorder In Some
Precinots-Wells for Mayor.

St. Louis, Feb. 12.-More than $50
shots were fired, sergeant of police
and two negroes were wounded and
a ballot box was stolen in the course
of a riot about the Second district
polling place of the Fourth ward, at
Twelfth and Linden streets, early
yesterday evening. 1t was, only after
a riot call had brought Capt. Kelly
with 40 police and riot guns to- tire
scene that a semblance of order was
restored. Even then the streets were
filled with negroes and some white
men, all of whom were armed, many
of them intoxicated and looking for
trouble. Not q ballot was cast there
during the day.
Rolla Wells will be, nominated by
the democratic city convention to-
day for mayor. He swept % of the
2S wards in the primaries yesterday.
Ed Noonan and lack Tinker ran on
the regular democratic ticket" and
each had strong following. The
keen fight between the three men
brought out the party almost to
man. twenty-five men from Chicago
were arrested early in the action on
the charge that they had come here
for the purpose of repeating. Charges
and counter charges of repeating
were rife all day.

You can't possibly escape, for you're
surrounded"
No answer came from within.
The man tried his powerful strength
upon the door without any perceptible
effect.
When the second detective arrived
upon the scene he found the first one
removing the bottles from the shelves
by the light of a match held in his
left hand.
Get light and an ak, Jim. There's
a secret door here which we'll have to
break in; can't find any way of open
ing it."
A few minutes later. the detectives.
after dealing upon the shelves some
telling blows with an AK, called upon
Murdoch to surrender.
Receiving no answer to their sum-
mons, the men stood irresolute for a
few seconds. Then, with grim deter
mination, they attacked the door;
raining the blows upon it fast and fu-
riously, and filling the air with show
er of splinters.
At length final stroke sent the
weakened hinges from their fastenings,
and the men rushed through the un-
derground passage into the murderer's
laboratory.
A hasty, startled glance told them
that Murdoch was not there.
They started for the stairs and were
met by policeman who was just en-
tering Murdock's Office.
"Have you got him ?''asked the detec-
tives in chorus.
NO." replied the policeman, sur
prised; ''Mr. Sturgis says he went down
here about 20 minutes ago."
eve chased him in from the other
end not ten minutes ago."
The policeman hurried down. the
stairs.
Murdock's valise and package stood
conspicuous upon the long pine box.
But of Murdoch there was no sign.
"Gone!" exclaimed one of the detec-
tives. deeply mortified at the thought
that his quarry had slipped through
his fingers. Gone! How? Where?

aYes, I love him." she said, simply.

"Yes, love him." she said, simply.
Then this strange man, without an
other word, gently pushed his daugh-
ter to one side and. throwing off his
coat, stopped over the PROSTATE form
of the man whose life he had tried to
take, and industriously worked over
him, in an attempt to restore the fail
ing respiration.
Slowly and steadily he worked for
what seemed an eternity to the anx-
ious girl. At length he rose, calm and
collected as usual, and drew on his
coat again.
HE is out of danger now" he said !;
you can do the rest yourself"
And he handed his, daughter the
brandy flask.
to the artists face; his breast heaved
gently in an irregular respiration.
Sturgis, still unable to stir from the
chair in which he had fallen, was
vaguely conscious of Murdock's move
ments. He saw the chemist open the
safe which stood near his table and
take from it numerous bundles of
banknotes, which he carefully packed
into valise; he saw him take from
the same safe few richly bound
notebooks, which he proceeded to do
up in a neat bundle, securely tied and
sealed.
This done, the chemist put on his
hat and coat, and was preparing to
pass out into the hallway, when a
knock sounded upon the door.
Murdoch opened slightly-enough
to show himself. without revealing
the presence of the other occupants
of the room.
It was one of the housemaids.
"Plaze, sur said the girl, in a
frightened voice, "the polacemun says
he can't wait no longer; he must see
yer right away"
"Are they in the parlor?"
"Only the polacemun. sur; the other
man said he would wait outside"
Murdoch took minute for reflec-
ton.
"Wait in the hall until I call you,"
he said, at last. IF the policeman be-
comes impatient, tell him l shall no:
be long; that l am engaged on most
important business
40 sooner had the girl gone than
Murdoch, Selling the valise and the
package, opened the door of the ex-
tension. His eyes rested for awhile
upon his daughter, who, still absorbed
in the tender care of her inanimata
lover. was oblivious of all else. There
was in them an unusual expression
almost a tender light: but the i'm
passive face was otherwise emotion
less.
The chemist seemed to hesitate for
brief instant whether to speak;
then. passing out into the extension,
he softly closed the door behind him.
Sturgis alone. weak and powerless
had seen him go.

.sINvINcIBLE rH1EvRs..'


Alton, H., Feb. 1.-THE intense ex-
element in regard to the conspiracy
of the 'invincible thieves" continues.
John Huebner, one of the threatened
farmers, says that Boals and Fair
man, the men under arrest, came to
his home some days before he received
letter signed "Invincible Thieves"
and represented themselves as money
loancrs and wanted to know if he
had any to loan. He told them that
he had il the proper security could
be given him. They promised to re-
turn with the necessary papers, but
did not and the threatening letter
was tackled on to Huebner's well
day or two after that visit. It is be-
lievcd by the detectives that the 'in-
vincibles" took this method of dis
covering men with ready cash.
Robert Kelsey, a wealthy farmer
living near Bethalto, in this county,
it IS now learned, shortly before the
''invincible thieves" conspiracy was
made public, was robbed of 81, 900 by
similar methods. He received letters
demanding $1,000, threatening that if
he did not put the money in a place
named by the writer's his home would
be destroyed by dynamite. Mr.. Kel-
sey is we'll on in years. but he kept
the knowledge of the threat from his
family and the public. He brOoded
over the demand for some time, but
finally complied with it aud had NO

THE OLD APPLE TREE.

To-day I crossed the meadows
That lie beyond the town,
And meath a gnarled old apple tree
To rest laid me down.
Its branches stirred above me,
A breeze swept to and fro.
And high among the apple buds
The bees were humming slow.
A squirrel came to watch me,
A bird sang from the hill,
And all about the open fields
The sun lay warm and still.
thought of how. in childhood.
Like a dream 1t seemed to me,
We two had told our childish love
Beneath that apple tree.
The apple buds seem much the same
As pure and sweet and cold,
But time has changed the apple tree.
And 1t and I are old.
My life is like the apple tree,
Grown harsh and rough and strange,
But love Is like the bursting buds
They never seem to change.
