jections to Long Marches-and
Protracted Camps.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Sept. 1S.-It
is something of a shock to members of
the general staff to learn that there
is objection among army officers and
enlisted men to the long practice
marches and the protracted encamp-
ments to which cavalry and infantry
commands have been assigned this
summer. 1t was expected that the out
ings would be a relief from the mo-
notony of garrison life, but this is so
far from being the case, that the war
department has received numerous
complaints of the demands upon the
time of the soldiers. The militia in
some cases have proved very hard to
manage, and in the short period Of
their stay at the camps many have
been found struggling about the nearest
towns and doing their best to get away
from the work of the encampment.
1t is not likely that there will be any
change in the system next year. The
president believes that the service

should be kept to the line of efficient
mobility, and he also holds that this
cannot be done without just such work
as has been laid out for the regulars
this year. 1t is worthy of remark that
while some officers are finding fault
with the hard work and the exposure
others are complaining that there is
too much luxury, too many "fxings"
about the camps, and too little Of the
sort of thing the soldiers would find
in the field if they were ordered there
in time of war.

WAKING IN THE WILDERNESS
How to Get Out of Bed whan +h. Thermometer Registers Terty
 Below Zero,

You are awakened in the bitter dark. ness of the early morning by the sound of the camp dogs moving among the frozen pails of refuse. You hear their padding footsteps passing this way and that outside of the tents and the brushing of their bodies against the canvas walls. Then you hear the sound of chopping wood where some one is at work in the starlight, says the Boston Globe. One of the men stirs and rises in the darkness. The tent is bitter cold with everything frozen as hard as iron. You hear the man fumbling around in the darkness for the matches, and presently he strikes one and lights candle.
 Presently he begins chopping the wood for the stove, and his big, round shadow moves uncouthly and gro. tesquely about the walls as the flame of the candle wavers in the araught of cold air. He makes a fire, and in 8 moment the flame is roaring up the stovepipet which gradually becomes B dull red with the gushing heat He S$oAo9 WAt0 hAo OdSh lO l0C oIONC duu presently the other man rises and joins him.
 Then you yourself move reluctant, In your warm swaddling of furs, and with some effort crawl out into the bitter cold and joint the others around the stove. None of you speak, but each absorbs the scanty heat in silence. By and by, warmed to some return of life, you peep out of the tent; the sky is like black crystal, the stars shining with incredible effuL gence. From the stovepipe of the other tents rockets of flame arc gush. ing up into the air; showers of sparks rise up into the night high overhead hover. waver and then, sink dwind. ling upon the tent and tho surround ing snow.
 You look at the thermometer hang. ing against tree and see by the light of match that 1t Is 70 degrees below zero. By this time the smell of cook. ing Is filling the silent frozen spaces of the darkness and you reenter tho tent to hug again the warmth of the stove, with huge appetite for the rude breakfast of melted grease and gillettss.

CABLES HARD TO MAINTAIN
Six Lines Damaged by a Typhoou Which Lately Swept the
 China Sea.

The difficulty attending the efficient maintenance of the network of sub marine telegraph cables, by which in- telligence is flashed to the uttermoa ensd of the earth, is illustrated by the reports of the newspapers that no few CT than six of these cables were dam aged by the typhoon which recently ragged over the east coast of China.
 The various cable companies are, of course, prepared for contingencies of this kind, and 6 fleet of some 46 spc- cially constructed vessels are con- stantly employed in laying and repair ing cables in different parts of the world
 The magnitude of these operations may be realized when 1t Is said that the length of the cable lying along the the bed of the ocean is something like 225, 5,000 miles. Of these considerably more than one-half are British, while British messages number 100000 900 words per annum. The cables lie at various depths, the greatest known depth of the ocean being 5.6S miles in the North Paicfc.
 "Our cables are tested every week." said an official of the Eastern Tele- graph company, to a London newspaper man, "and when a fault Is detected a repairing-ship is sent to the spot These ships are stationed at various centers, such as Gibraltar, Alden. Singapore, and the west and east coasts of Africa, and there Is always re- serve stock of cables kept in tanks at certain stations.
 "In shallow water the cables are sometimes fouled by the anchors of ships, and at the mouths of large rivers there is sometimes trouble when trunks of trees and other ob- jects are swept into the sea and forced by the strong currents against the cables. Then there are boring in- sects like the teredo, which bores it's way between the strands of iron wire twisted round the core of the cable but in our newer cables we have pro- vided against the depredations of the teredo by a sheathing of brass coiled around the cable like ribbon"

TIGERS 4 PUBLIC MENACE.
People and Stock Arc Killed by Saw age Beasts in Mexican
 Territory.

Tigers, driven from their mounta4a tairs In the territory of Topic by ths scarcity of food continue to ravage the coming such . general danger, says tho Mexican Herald, that the municipal au- thorities have offered . reward of &te tor every tigers skin.
 For the past several months great numbers of the animals have swarmed through the marshes of the lowlands along the coast and in the valleys of the territory of Topic, having hsea driven out of the states of SinaIoa and senora by the floods and the sxtsNm ely cold weather. The damage caused to the haciendados and the darge, h. cured by the presence of the animals 7 was such that many of them offered rewards for the skins of tAA aniz4als some time ago.
 The tigers, however, seem to like the waxn weather and the good food that they are getting Ia Topic and instead of decreasing their numbers have greatly increased within the last few weeks. Now the municipal authorities of the territory have also offered reward for the skins Of the animals.
 The tigers have become so bold that they will enter the houses on the plan- tations and help themselves to what ever comes in their path. Several deaths are reported in different parts Of the territory. In many sections of the state 1t is necessary to have armed guards stationed at night, to insure the safety of the other people in the settlements.
 Live stock is suffering mora than anything else. With the slight pro. visions that are necessary for the shell ter Of the stock 1t leaves them in most caass without any protection at all from the beasts. Even the presence of numerous guards around a buach of cattle Is oftentimes insufficient to keep tho tigers from getting away with an animal or two from along the edges of the herd.
 Hunting for the animals has been greatly stimulated by the offers of the government and scores of hunters are securing the country for them. The number of the skins that have been turned in thus far is large and 1t is hoped that 1t will not be long before the animals are driven back to the seclusiou of the mountains.

Now is your chance to buy a lot in the great town of KINTA, I. T.. the home of the Governor of the Choc- Jaw Nation and the selected county seat of Sans Bois county. Get in on the ground floor and buy now; lots are selling at S45.00 on the payment plan.
 I believe at the opening, if you desire, you can sell your lots for five times what you paid. Just. look back at Enid, it gained 1000 in three years. El Reno has, in the mean time, grown 5000. Blackwell has, in the same time, gained about 5000. Oklahoma City has in thirty-six months gained 12,000.
 A salesman for the Sim mons Hardware Co.,, was offered four lots at Tulsa, I. T., two years ago for $275.00; these same lots sold a short time ago for $10,000.
 I candidly believe Kinta will equal, if not excel, any of these above mentioned.
 You can not buy more than five lots. Send me $500 today as first pay ment, or write for descrip- tive literature.

A BIG CELEBRATION
OF THE CENTENNIAL
OF THE FIRST UNFURLING OF
THE STARS AND STRIPES OVER
KANSAS SOIL IN PROGRESS.
Special to the Herald.

Special to the Herald.
Republican City. Kas., Sept &C.
Many persons from various parts of
Kansas and from across the Ne
braska state line gathered here today
for the opening of a four days cele-
bration of the centennial of the first
unfurling of the Stars and Stripes
over Kansas soil. 1t was here, one
hundred years ago, that Lieutenant
Zebulon NJ. Pike, in command OF only
a score Of men. met in council with
the chiefs of the Pawnees in their
great village on the banks of the Re
publican river. On that occasion Pike
demanded that the Spanish flag,
which was floating over old Chief
Characterick's tent, should be low
cred and replaced by the American
flag. II was a stin demand to be
made at a period when the Pawnees
held the United States government in
disrespect and gloried in the power
of Spain, but it was complied with.
Plans for the observance of the cen
tennial have been going forward for
some time and the celebration begun
today promises to be a most interest
ing one.
