Says Lee Would Have Won.

The report of Gen. Ian Hamilton,
the umpire at the battle Of Antietam,
reproduced in the msneuvers at Sal.
isbury by British regular and volun-
teer troops, was issued in London last
week. Sir Ian Hamilton, who made
a great reputation in the South Afri-
can War and was Lord Kitchener 8
chief of staff, afterward being the
British army representative with the
japanese army in Manchuris, declared
that under modern conditions Lee
would have won a great victory.
The General remarks that the bat
ties Of the American Civil War are
much neglected by European students.
The chief lesson to be gained from the
reproduction Of the battle of Antietam
is that with modern artillery, heavy
field guns, howitzers and quick-fring
ordinary field guns, the position Of
the defender would be changed. In.
stead OF being forced to withdraw
over the Potomac, Lee, with these
weapons, could have secured sweep
ing victory.
The commsader who was Lees un.
der-study on Salisbury Plain, Gener-
al Allenby, smashed up the enemy's
advance and the dispositions of his
troops were such that they entirely
deceived the attacking side. The Lee
of today, in General Hamilton's judg-
ment, by virtue of a line Of defense
filled with modern artillery armament,
can neutralize the numerical superi.
ority which Lee had to face.

The Eyes Of Animals.

Did you ever try to see the sky

he is lizsrd, you may remember,
that can turn green. red or brown
whenever he chooses. Birds and an.
imals can do many things with their
eyes that We cannot. For instance,
your old Tabby cat can see at night
and see perfectly we'll.
The eyes Of horses ale set so they
can see back of them without turn
ing the head. That is the reason
people put "blinders on them. Just
drive old Dobbin without those blind
ere, and watch him jump if you even
SO much as put out your hand for the
whip. Even when chased by hound,
which runs very quietly, Br'er Rab-
bit always knows just where danger
lies, for he can see behind him while
running at full speed. The giraffe is
protected this way, too, and then he
can lift his head 90 high that be can
see all over the country. You have
heard that the mole is blind; but il is
not. 1t has two sharp eyes, though
they are very, very tiny, and hidden
under his velvet coat. You can i'm
agine how little use he has for sight,
as he lives under ground.
Eyelids help to moisten the eysball
and keep it clean; so, as fish live in
water, they do not need them. The
eyeball is hard and not easily hurt.
Flies, gnats aud spiders have great
many eyes. They are clustered in
spots, 30 may be called compound
eyes. They can see in all directions
without moving.
Birds can fatten their bright eyes
or round them out at will. They
have set Of scales around the place
the light enters, with muscles over
them. When they want to see some.
thing near by they draw in these mus

The rhinoceros market is cornered.
Not single one Of this ugliest Of ug.
ly beasts is to be had in the open
market OF the world. Geological COL.
leotors and circus owners the world
over are unable to secure one, for the
worlds supply is apparently run out.
In consequence, the price Of this
homely beast is enormous.
There are known to be two in this
country. One, an old chap, tottering
with age and screwed up from rheu.
matism, is in the Central Park New
York; 'Zoo,9 and the other young.
ster. about 4 years old. and q black
African, is in possession Of Ringing
Brothers.
According to Pearl Soudsr, wild
animal authority in the employ Of
the Ringlings, the sun OF the "rhino"
is fast setting. Not only 10 he an
exceptionally rare article in captivity,
but he has become 80 scarce in the
wild state as TO be already regarded
as among the semi.extinct animals.
The market price Of an sble.bodied
rhinocsros was, until few years ego,
anywhere from 5000 to $1,000.
Now circus managers would be will.
ing to pay four or FIVE times this sum
were it possible to obtain one. Ring.
ling Brothers were offered $3.50
for their young specimen.
The one in Central Park, New
York, is about rs years old, and has
the odd distinction Of two tongues,
one above the other, operating indie
pendently. but attached to the same
root. Geological experts have been
puzzled by this freak Of nature, and
can give no satisfactory explanation.
Just now this old fellow 10 in bad
shape from the aches of rheumatism
contracted, it is said, from being
chained to concrete floor, and. al
though receiving the utmost care. his
days are obviously numbered.

Tongues and Ears.

No country in the world does more
to entertain it's children than Japan,
says successful young missionary,
who has been doing admirable work
there. Even on the street corners
stand men whose sole business it is to
tell stories to little boys and girls.
One day | joined group Of little
folks who were eagerly listening, and
this is what heard:
"Once upon time peasant went
to heaven, and the first thing he cav
was long shelf with something very
strengthening upon it.
"'What is that ? he asked. is
that something to make soup Off
(Tbe japanese are very fond Of soup).
No. was the reply; these are
ears. They belong to persons who
when they lived on earth heard what
they ought to do in order to be good,
but they didn't pay any attention to
it so when they died their ears came
to heaven, but the rest Of their bodies
could not.
"After awhile the peasant saw
another shelf with very queer things
on it.
"'What is that ? he asked again.
is that something TO make soup Of ,
"No, he was told ; these are
tongues. They once belonged to.peo-
pie in the world who told people how
to live and how to do good. but they
themselves never did as they told
others to do; 80 when they deid their
tongues came to heaven. but the rest
of their bodies could not.
Wasn't that good lesson for Us
