Belgian frontier. The numbers en-
gagged here were smaller than at
Metz.
The Civil War presents few in
stances of huge numbers meeting in
battle. At Gettysburg. less than 1885,
600 were engaged ON both sides,
while in the battle of the Wilderness,
where fought the largest number of
men in the war, the Confederates
numbered only $4,000, while Grant
had 10000, total less than half the
number believed to have fought at
Liao-Yang. The Confederate loss
exceeded $4,000, and that of the
Union forces was over $4,000. I'm
like the other battles mentioned, it
was drawn fight, both forces leav-
ing the field soon after the fight at
Spottsylvania. Sherman IN his march
to the sea, had little more than u.s.
600 men with him.
In the Napoleonic era, although
the armies were larger than those OF
the previous century, and far greater
than in the Civil War, the numbers
were comparatively small. At Aus
terlitz, the most famous OF the earlier
victories of Napoleon, the French had
only 10000, while the Russian and
Austrian forces did not exceed 5000,
$4,000 Of whom were killed, wounded
or captured in the struggle. The
French lost less than a quarter of
this number. At Wagram Napoleon
had 100000, his allied opponents emily
10000, and although the French pre-
vailed, the losses on either side were
about 10000. At Borodino, the blood
lest battle Of the nineteenth century,
$4,000 French defeated $4,000 Rus
slams. the former losing $4,000, the
latter over $4,000. Waterloo, al
though the most decisive battle of the
last century, was fought for the larg-
er part of the day between $4,000
French under Napoleon, and $4,000
British Belgians and Dutch under
Wellington. Late in the afternoon
Butcher brought up one division after
another Of his force, until over $4,000
Prussians joined in the fight, and Ma
poleon's army was destroyed The
French lost $4,000 men in this bat
tie the allies $4,000.
In the eighteenth century the
armies were smaller than those of
NapoleOn's time. Frederick the Great
seldom had beneath his standard a
force of more than 10000. At Ross
bach, the most famous of his victor
les Of the great Prussian, he had
less than $4,000 under his command,
while his foes mustered more than
10000. The Prussian loss in the con-
fict was 500, while the Austrians
lost 2,700 killed and wounded, and
more than 5000 captured. The wars
Of the age of Queen Anne, when the
great Duke of Marlborough and
Prince Eugene humbled the pride of
the aged Louix XIV, were on large
scale, though insignificant when con-
trasted with those of the nineteenth
century. Blenheim, MalplaQuet and
Families, which were the most "a
nous of these battles, were all fought
between less than 10000 men. At
Blenheim, the most decisive, MARI

coPPERpoM'S DEVELOPMENT.

Ten years ago is was the general opinion in the lake district that all of the big copper deposits had been de veloped, and that nothing of great im- portance could be looked for in the future, says the Mining Journal. This opinion was based on the fact that the entire mineral belt, from Kewee- naw Point to some distance west of the Ontonagon river, had been ex- plored and punctured by innumerable drill holes, pits, shafts, trenches and adits. for fifty years. Although the opinion of ten years ago seemed plaus- ible, based on the data then at hand. it's utter erroneousness has been fully demonstrated by the opening of many rich new mines within the past seven years. Among these are the Baltic, Trimountain. Champion and Mohawk, which are making an average of about 100000 pounds of refined cop per monthly, and the development of other important new mines and the opening of promising prospects on the Kearsage and Baltic lodes. None of the properties mentioned are old mines warmed over, but mines that are absolutely new from the grass roots down while the Centennial and Allcuez properties. although old as corporations. are entirely new as mines. their openings being on entire ly different formations from those formerly worked The development of the lake copper district has reach
 ed a point where no conscientious judge of mineral values can pronounce any given tract as worthless. 100 many good mines have been made or late on lands formerly held to be O little or no value to render it safe 10 absolutely condemn any property
