Uncle Sans summer travellers to foreign
parts are moving back on Washington in
plstoons, greatly refreshed by their vsoa-
ton and overlooking with Information
and experience. Every year an army Of
officials from nearly every branch Of the
service spreads Itself over the globe at
your uncle's expense. This year congress
increased the number with two rowing
commissions Of it's members
European waterways and their relation
to the growing problems Of transportation
was the subject of a short-range study
by members of the national waterway com
mission, Of which Senator Theodore Burton
Of Ohio was chairman. These commits
sioners left New York about the middle
Of August and spent ten weeks in travers-
ing Europe. They will make their obser-
vations the subject Of a report to congress
this winter.
More Americans went abroad this year
under the auspices Of the state depart
ment than any other branch Of the gov
eminent. T~wenty-three delegates attended
the sixteenth International medical con-
gress at Budapest from August % to Sep

at Bergen, Norway, August IS to 10, and
forty-nine others went to various interna-
tional congresses during the summer Both
the War department and the Navy depart
ment have sent several of their medical
experts to conferences abroad, it being
recognized that this line is more interna-
tional than national, and that all the lead
ing powers are working in harmony.
Among other visitors were Rear Admiral
Raymond p. Rodgers, president of the
naval war college and Rear Admiral
Adolph Mark. Others who went to Europe
for Uncle Sam this year were Commits
sloner Of Patents Edward b. Moore, Prof.
Willis l.. Moore, chief Of the weather bu-

The battle of Montgomery, between
two doughty confederate colonies, in
the presence of their comrades-at-arms
in reunion assembled, must have been
almost as worthy of immortal verse as
the battle Of Blenheim. 1t is unfortu-
nate that the newspaper reports are so
devoid of details. Therein the war cor
respondent seems to have been delin-
quent. But from the way the canes
thwaeked and the way 'That with my
compliments, sab, from an officer and
a gentleman, sah!" were lnterchanged,
one may Judge that the warfare was
both as vigorous and as courteous as
the greatest stickler for the old code
could desire. What did they fight
about? "oh, that do not know" said
he, but twas a famous victory"
