HARDLY WORTH THE EXPENSE.

The clash of resounding arms is
again heard upon Virginia's plain,
and serried ranks of brown and blue
battle for the honors. But, everyt thing
considered, it is a matter Of doubt
whether the petty war game is really
worth the great cost. The Manassas
manouvres will re present an enor-
nous expenditure in view of the brief
character of the operations. The war
department has estimated the items of
expense. The ammunition alone will
cost $50, 900; the militia pay will re-
present 100000; the subsistence OF
the troops at the rate of Is cents day
per man will be something more than
$40, 900; 80 cents an acre must be
paid for the lease of land upon which
the movements will be dire cted; the
sinking of wells has cost $50, 600; and
the railway receives payment for &C
miles of side'ack in addition TO the
immense cost of army transportation
Moreover, all damage to crops, lands
and buildings must be paid for by the
government, and this.item it is thought
will range between $50, and 800,
900. The total estimate of cost Il

Of the diamond was not known till the

RESULT OF THE EASTERN WAR.

The natural result of the success of
Japan, the Montgomery Journal thinks
will be an alliance, offensive or defen-
sive, between China and Japan, the
lat er taking charge of the military
organization of the former. China TO
day is, numerically, the strongest ma
ton IN the world, and when her mill
tary resources are developed, as they
will be under the auspices of the
Yankees of the Orient, she will prove
among the most powerful of all the
nations. With China and Japan act
ing in az cord, Russia must surrender
all hope of further extensions toward
India, while England may be COM
PEELED to withdraw from Thibet, with
the almost certainty that that country
will, sooner or latter, be opened up to
modern civilization through the efforts
of China. The possibilities ere that
the combined nations may III time
seek footing IN father India, but the
chances are that neither of them will
ever care to do more than to protect
and further develop their respective
countries. Without doubt Corea will
in the end, fall to Japan, and IN that
event the world atlarge, and especially
the Hermit Kingdom, will be inn
measurably benefited. 1t is an old
axiom that wars are beneficial to hui
mainly. It remains to be seen what
benefits will flow from the war bes
tween Russia and Japan.

The Man In the Iron Mask.

All the best informed persons of my
time have always thought that this
famous history was founded upon the
capture and captivity of Mattioli, a
Piedmontese political prisoner, who
died in the Bastile in 1903 In those
days prisoners were made to wear
masks when travelling, but it would be
more exact to say mask the color of
iron. All the details which Voltaire
added were simply fabulous and laugh
able, and I think you will find that my
theory of the iron mask is the right
