the record they have recently es- abolished in their drills. It is re- ported that in recent maneuvers of the North Atlantic squadron. off the Jersey coast, one gunner on the Alabama, with a five inch gun, at five miles, firing fourteen shots a minute, thirteen times struck the target, (smaller than would be an enemy's cruiser). Another fired thirteen shots in a minute, and every shot hit the target. Upon another vessel, two gunners, with guns of the same size, fired thir- teen shots each per minute, and each made twelve hits. Before such a fire as that it would not re- quire many minutes to sink very formidable fleet, unless the adver- sary was quicker and more accu- rate in gunnery, which seems hardly possible.

The Mexican chicken thief who stole R. D. Georges chickens last week and ran across the interna- tional line to escape the American authorities, jumped from the fry ing pan into the fire. He was picked up by the Mexican officers, who, hearing of his escapade on this side of the line, decided to take care of him. A little investi- tion brought out the fact that he is an ex-convict. having served three years in Sonora for highway robbery. He was given a 15 day sentence as vag and when he has served his time will be pressed into the Mexican army for a term of three years.

MODERN WARFARE.

A complete collapse of the Rus
 sian Baltic fleet in the great naval
 battle in the Japan Sea, the prev
 ious train of serious disasters
 which had overtaken the Asiatic
 fleet of the same power in the na-
 val operations about Port Arthur. the steady forward movement of the Japanese armies in Manchuria, crushing all opposition, have em- phasized the extent of the great rev. olution which within generation
 has taken place in both military
 and naval operations. Never be-
 fore in the history of warfare has the personal equation counted for
 so little, and never has system
 counted for so much. Napoleon at
 Marengo. throwing himself into the ebbing tide of battle, and turn ing 1t into a flood sweeping on to victory; and Sheridan in his dram attic ride from Winchester town to the scene of conflict at Fishers Hill, arriving on the scene of dis
 aster in the nick of time and turn ing panic and defeat into glorious victory. are superb figures in his- tory; hut they have been relegated to the lumber room of romance.
 No longer does the commander Of a great army, seated in the sad- dle in central position, dispatch ing aides and orderlies in all diree- tions, and receiving reports from subordinate commanders in the same way from officers who dash through the smoke of battle to headquarters, dominate the field of action in baphazard sort of way, trusting much to the reliability of his subordinates, and more to luck: but, as described of Marshal Ova- ma, the great Japanese commander, he is seated in a hut, with his ear. glued to telephone receiver, re- ceiying spersonal reports from his subor dinate commanders, miles away, and imparting to them his orders. A corps commander re- ports that his line is contending against severe attack of the enemy en masse. Instantly an order is telephoned another corps com mander, who can spare the force, to relieve the situa- tion, and he does so, immediately. l Under the old system an aide would ride four or five miles to re- port the danger, and another would l make similar ride to order rein- forcements to the critical point; and they possibly reached the place only in time to meet with disaster-as did Fitz

battle.
 Then there are the modern arms
 of precision tho complete, havoc
 they create when we'll handled and
 the advantages that acrue Co a per
 feet personnel, men and officers in
 complete accord the men selfreliant
 and capable of individual initia-
 tive; officers active, vigilant, tenn
 perate and keeniy alert to all their
 surroundings. The man who has
 set at the gaining table all night,
 with his brain disordered from fre- quent libations, is in no condition
 to perform the serious business of leading soldiers in the line of bat tie. The hard drinker-the swash- buckler-may have done when pitted against those of his kind. But the nation which puts into the field the other kind of men wins it's battles. There's wherein Rus sia has failed. Too much cham pagne and vodka, too many opera singers and dancers for the officers. Too little discipline among the men. Even the great Napoleon, who was accompanied in his cam paigns by theatrical troopes and dancers, opera singers and contin- aeres, could not have prevailed against Marshal Oyama, who had none of them. Napoleon could contend against commanders who were hampered with the same im- pedimenta, but he never tried con- clusions with those who were not.
 In the same way Japan has as- sumed dominance of the seas. She obllterated the Russian Asiastic fleet, and afterward the Baltic fleet of the same power, through the superiority of personnel and the accurate gunnery of her fleets. With the Russians particularly in the Baltic fieet-there was sup eriority of guns and armor; but the superiority of men in the work of their chosen avocation was what counted. Stories which now leak out from Russians captive in Ja- pan, are that the Baltic fleet had been seldom exercised in those maneuvers ofships and trials ofgun- nery in which the Japanese showed l themselves so wonderfully prof. cient. So when they came in con- tact with the Japanese, with their superb gunnery, their great fleet i went to pieces, as though of the splendid vessels were made of card- board Every Japanese gunner had been in training for months, and at five miles distance he could { deliver within the radius of few feet the shots from his great gun in consecutive succession at the rate of a dozen a minute. Against such work as that what could be accomplished by the Rus sian gunners, who had been given but little or no exercise in gun nery?

Sex In Ants

The different species Of ants are
pretty generally distributed over the
globe, and on this account the natural
lists infer that there Is work for them
to do in the great economy of the uni
verse. In each colony males, females,
neuters and sometimes soldiers are to
be recognized. The males are invaria-
bly, smaller than the females and, like
those Of the feminine gender, have
wings in their original state. The
neuters, which are the workers, are
without wings in any Of their trans
formations, and the soldiers are recog'
nized by the armor plates on their
heads.

DECIDED AT OKER.
In Moure's Five Card Draw Won the
Name OF the County.

When the extreme western border of
Dakota was colonized there was n live
ly squabble about what the new cOun-
ty should be called. There were four
commissioners whose duty ii was to
decide on the name, and at the board
meetings the vote for the name of the
county was always two and two, and
public feeling began to u high. John
VIM suggested that the four commits
sioners should take 800 white chips
apiece and play a game of poker to
decide, the chips to represent So each.
This was agreed to, and the game com
menced with the entire population on
hand. For two hours little gain was
made, and then a jack pot came
around, for which seventy-three hands
were dealt before it was opened. FL
nally Commissioner Edwards opened
il for 500. He held three kings, Judd
La Moure held n ZigZag, and the 9th
ers dropped out. Edwards drew one
card. La Moure dealt himself five
cards, and the betting commenced.
Men with revolvers kept the crowd
from the table. After several raises
there was $1,000 in the pool private
money, besides the chips. Then the
hand was called. Edwards held three
kings, and La Moure had drawn a full,
three fives and a pair Of fours. He
rose to his feet and cried, Gentlemen,
this is Mckenzie county" and so 1t
was and is called. The game lasted
eighteen hours, and La Moure and
VIM were carried shoulder high
around the town, which saw no sleep
that night. The cards held by La
/ Moure are to be found among the ar.
chives OF the county, labeled Ia
