RANGE OF VISION.
What Can be Distinguished at Various
Distances.

From the War College Bulletin.
Do you know
That at 30 yards the white of a mans
eye is plainly seen and the eyes them
selves up to so yards
That a 100 yards all part of the body
are seen distinctly, slight movements are
perceptible and the minute details of the
uniform can be distinguished?
That at 200 yards the outlines of the
face are confused and the rows of but
tons look like stripes?
That at 100 yards the face is a mere dot,
but all movements of the legs and arms
are still distinct?
That at 900 yards details can no longer
be distinguished, though files of a squad,
If the light is strong, can be counted?
That at 800 yards the men In a squad
cannot be counted nor their individual
movements distinguished?
That at 500 yards the men In a squad
cannot be counted nor their individual
movements distinguished?
At 1000 yards a line OF men resembles
a broad belt; the direction of their mas<h
can, however. be readily determined. At
IL yards cavalry can be distinguished
from infantry and at 1000 yards a mount
ed man usually appears as a mere speck.
Yet in these days of long range weapons
battles are fought at a distance of 1000
yards and it is desirable for marksmen
to qualify at that range. The new rifle.
with which our troops are to be equipped
has a maximum effective fighting range
of 1871 yards or more than two and one
half miles. In other words, a bullet from
this rife will kill or disable at a greater
distance than the man firing 1t can dis
tinguish an individual enemy from the

VISIT TO THE ALEXANDRA.
BY PAUL PRY.

Granada, October ia short journey
of a few hours brought us to Granada
from Cordova, and 1t was one Of the few
Journeys In Spain that was made in the
day time. We were glad Of this, for An
dalusia is the most fertile as well as at
tractive part of Spain and we were
pleased to see it more plainly.
Here the palms and immense orange
groves, and lemon and fig trees, suggest
i've of tropical climate are found in
greatest abundance. We enjoyed to the
fullest the delicious fruit of Spain. For
there are figs, grapes-the large Malaga
variety, the Spanish melons, which are
especially delicious, peaches, pears and
apples. And all in such abundance that
a large amount can be purchased for only
a few cents.
1t is vintage time and on each side of
our train were enormous vineyards OF
purple and white grapes. The vines only
grow few feet high and each one is
supported by a stick. On each vine there
are punches of grapes, which appear to
be nearly one-half as long as the vines
are high.
l must not forget TO pay trlpute TO Tue
patient little donkeys-burros-that trudge
along double panniered, here bearing bur-
dens of grapes all day and far into the
night.
We were quite frank to confess when
we entered Spain that the Alhambra was
our objective point and the goal of great
est interest for us; and l believe the glad
surprise and delight we experienced at
Cordova, upon visiting the wonderful
Masque of the Moors, but heightened and

JUST ONE JOT.
BY SIDNEY r. LAZARUS.

Asheville, N. c., October %, 1904.
To the Boys:
We are so far away from Birmingham
(you will notice 1 said "we'D thot l al
most forgot about the Travellers Pro-
tective association and Post B. To tell the
truth l had forgotten about them, but my
friend Austin Sims (of European fame)
found out where we were and was KIND
enough to write and let me know how
things were progressing In the city oil
strikes, pig iron and smoke Austin
wasn't very careful about the letter, be-
cause he let some one write in red INK
on 1t, "He has Just been married. or
course up to that time the hotel clerk
was not on to us.
[ have at hand a clipping from the
Birmingham Excuse which informs me
that John r. Copeland is out Of the race
for mayor. The article also says that
John w. ONeirs popularity is all that
it Is cracked up to be and that he has
the tin to make a good race Charles
Simmons is reported to be running ike

Is handing out a good deal OF DOPE, but
this has not been verified The other
candidates are not 4. =. A. members,
and therefore won't have any more show
In Birmingham than Barnum and Bailey.
1t is reported up here that Culpepper
Exum and Erslxine Ramsay are engaged
again, but no doubt they just have new
press agent. They had a good one last
year. People are also saying things about
Bert Jacobs.
George Vanderbilt came over from
Bltmore this morning and we had a
very pleasant chat for about an hour.
He wanted to know II James A. Van
HOSES canal was proving successful as
he thought he would build one himself
and wanted to get some ideas from the
ditch originated by Mr.. Van Hoose. Mr..
Vanderbilt said some very nice things
about Vulcan. He said that our exhibit
couldn't be beaten, and that Vulcan must
have a cast iron stomach to stand the
food he is getting in st. Louis He also
said something about Vulcan having
muscles like iron, but | didn't quite catch
it. Mr.. Vanderbilt Is very much inter
ested in Birmingham and said that he
intended coming over to spend a few
days in the Magic City as soon as Duncan
pleaded guilty.
This Is a great country up here and the
altitude is almost as high as the hotel
rates The waiter told me this morning
when ] asked him If the eggs were fresh,
that they served nothing but farmers
eggs l had noticed that there were few
mems around Inc man at the table next
to us kicked about his eggs and the
waiter asked him If they hadn't been
cooked long enough. The man said yes,
but they weren't cooked soon enough.
There were no toothpicks on the table.
and when we kicked about it the head
waiter explained that the boarders had
taken them all away and had for for
gotten to bring them back. The clerk
told one man that the proprietor Of the
hotel had his liver and
the man wanted to know II there wasn't
any butcher shops in town.
Fearing that this heterogeneous COM
bination of bombastic fiction might tire
you. 1 suppose 1t Is up to me to diseon-
meet.

intensified this desire. We arrived just
| after dusk and were soon comfortably
| seated in the small wagonette OF our
hotel, drawn by four FESTIVE horses Their
alertness was increased by the cracking
of the drivers whip, and away we flew
over the cobble stones of old Granada.
| 1t seemed to us-with dinner awaiting us
that the distance was endless, for after
driving through the town we began the
ascent of the hill upon which the Alham-
bra sits enthroned. Our hotel-The Wash
ington Irving-adjoins the old Moorish
palace on the brow Of this HILL and a
| more delightful situation cannot be i'm

exceed the picturesqueness Of Heidelberg

Schloss hotel, but here we found worthy

Dinner awaited us in the cool gardens
nearby and the sheltering elms over
grown with riotous ivy whispered en-
chanting tales of the stored past when
the Moor was master here.
Early next morning we entered the
Alhambra gardens through long avenues
of elms, tall, slender, grey, interlaced
and over-arched. We saw the great
mountain-tower of the Alhambra first
through lovely, sun-glinted vistas. TO
the left is another tower, then third all
red and sun-browped. Near Us was the
bold, ruined walls of the palace of Charles
", which encrouches like some presump-
tuous conqueror.
We went first to the court of Myrtles,
that garden of enchantment that we en-
tered long since through the pages of
Washington Irving. Here we were met
by the grandson of the guide who served
our illustrious countryman, Mr.. Antonio

cures by new principle. impregnating
the air you breathe with healing and
germ killing balsams. On this account
1t reaches the seat of the disease in a
way impossible for pills, drugs and
other stomach dosing.
Many of Mcbride & Wills custom
ers who have suffered with catarrh
since childhood, have been cured COM
pletely byi this scientific remedy.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs
81, and consists OF an inhaler that can
be carried In the purse or pocket,
a medicine dropper and bottle of Hy-
omei. Extra bottle can be obtained for
90 cents, making 1t most economical
remedy for the cure of catarrh.
