THE HORRORS OF WAR.
Death Losses Of Civil War Compared
with Those Of other Wars.


The titanic nature of the struggle
between the states from 1861 to 1865
is slowly dawning upon the world. In
the annals of warfare IL was the most
deadly conflict ever known.

Comparing the two great battles,

writer draws attention to the fact
that, while the same number of men
were ON the field in these battles, 1872

exceeded the losses at Waterloo. con

actually engaged. At Waterloo the
losses were 49,4S5, and at Gettysburg
! 50,52S. II is remembered that $4,000
men tthe Sixth corps) were not en-
gagged at Gettysburg except for short
! time, early on the morning of July 2.
This runs up the percentage of losses
in the American battle, considering
the number of men engaged.
Throughout the civil war the loss
OF life on both sides was frightful,
writes Ada c. Sweet in Chicago Jour
nal Looked at even now. after the
lapse of years, the record Is dreadful
to contemplate. In the union army
there were 70 regiments whose losses
ran from so to So per cent.
The First Minnesota went into ac-
ton at Gettysburg with 262 officers
and men. II lost 224 killed and
wounded The Twentieth Massachu-
sets, at Fredericksburg, lost over SO
per cent. of it's membership. and came
out of the fight commanded by cap
tain who was, in years, mere boy.
Pickett, the confederate general, led
5000 brave men in his great charge at
Gettysburg, and in 30 minutes lost In
killed, wounded and prisoners, 5000.
The bloodiest battle of the civil war
was Antietam, and the losses were
the most appalling in short space of
time unless we except Cold Harbor,
where the union forces lost 1000 men
in eight minutes.
When we see the veterans In their

that some of them wear, we do not

through.

and honor them, but 1t is only when
we look at the records of death and
books of the nation, but left, for the
most part unread, that we realize
what 1t meant to be one of Uncle
Sans soldiers in the years from 1861

fact probably accounts for the fact
that early in his reign he surrounded
himself with foreigners who, with
some exceptions, were not generally
men of a high type-rope walkers,
photographers, balloonists, and sleight-
of-hand men were the representatives
of western civilization who for long
time appealed most powerfully to the
young sultan's appreciation of our cul-
ture. In view of the rising tide of dis
content and the disaffection even of
the people of the capital, and the
growing strength of the various revo-
lutions in progress, in the last year
the sultan has dismissed his staff of
foreign adventurers and goes to the
mosque as regularly as his father did
