1HK MILITARY SQUARE.
A Formation Borrowed by Wallace
 From the -lenrinGs.

From the entnSS.
 The greatest of all Scottish anpiver- saries is that of Bannock burn fought in the year l3l4. Apart from its hcdr ing on the independence of Scotland, the battle will always have an excep- tional interest from the military point of view. as Hannockbnrn may be said 10 have been he birthplace uf the British square Proud Edwards" army mainly consisted of cavalry. while that of the Scots, on the other hand, was almost exclusively composed of foot folk armed with tho spear, and these Bruce threw into 'schil- troms. or oblong squares, a formation borrowed by Wallace from the Elem ings who had employed it with sue. cess at Courtray to resist the charge of the English cavalry.
 Hitherto the mounted mail clad him, but Courtray and Bannockburn proved that he was powerless to break resolute spear armed infantry drawn up in ''schiltrom. or hedgehog. forma- lion, and these two battles revolution ized the tactics of the continent and of our own island. Profiting by the lesson which bad been taught them at BannOckburn. the English applied the tactics of the Scots with brillian success at Crecy and still nioye at Agincourt. As it was the Scots who l may be said to have originated the | British square at Bannockburn, so it was they again who at Balaklava were the first to discard it with their thin red line and now. owing to our
 changed conditions of warfare. it is
 discarded altogether.-London Chron-
 icle.

MOHAMMEDANS OF INDIA.
Superstition Seems to Govern Most of
 Their Actions.

Mohammedans of India are very superstitious. No Mohammedan will take bath on Sunday or Tuesday. But if one bathes on Wednesday all misfortunes and misery that are in store for him till the next Wednesday will be averted As a rule. all Moham- medans bathe on Fridays before going to perform the iumma prayers. For donnng new clothes Saturday. Sunday and Tuesday are regarded as bad days. If any one GonS q new dress or puts on new cloth or allows his tailor to cut piece of cloth on these days. be will live miserable life till that dress or cloth gets torn or is thrown away. If a shirt is torn and if the wearer wants to stitch it. it must be taken of, for if it is stitched while on the body the person will soon die A Moham- medan will never allow barber to come near him on Tuesdays for Tues days and Saturdays and Sundays are bad days for shaving. If absolutely necessary he will get himself shaved on Saturday or Sunday, but never on Tuesday, as his star is supposed to fall tn blood if he does so. If one receives money or some valuable thing, it is taken with the right hanG, for if it is taken with the left the person re- ceiving it is said to forget all about it very soon or to mislay it. A de vout Moha mmedan will not start on a journey on Wednesday,. for it is be- lieved he will never return home safe ly if he does so. And it is said that even q snake never ventures out of it's hole on this day

Miss Lucille Elicit and John

IN marriage at the Crawford

night at 8 o'clock in the presence
Of a number of relatives and
friends. Rev. DR.. T. B. Hol-

over to perform the wedding
ceremony.
Mr.. and Mrs. Powell departed
on the east bound night train for
Opelika, Alabama, where they

The young men who served as
ushers last evening were A. J..

Robert Stockton, a nephew of
the bride, acted as ring bearer.
The church was beautifully dec
GRATED for the occasion in white
flowers and evergreens. The
bride, who is a popular and at
tractive young lady, a sister, of
Mrs. Kate Stockton, was attired
in a green travelling suit. The
happy groom is a popular young
citizen of Opelika, where he will
engage in business.

the river) are being consulted in

end of the jaunt. It is to the
credit of the President that he
went to Warrenton for the pur-
pose of going back, and for that
purpose alone. Both Gen. Miles
and the giggling Miss seemed to
have overlooked this important
fact. The giggling girl is easily
excused, but the General should
have known better.

lays of horses not much credit
can be placed there.
No doubt the ordinary man.
who has not been in the saddle
for a long time, would balk at
riding even a fraction of the
distance, for saddle soreness
is mot a pleasant thing to carry
about with one. But for this
soreness anyone might duplicate
the Presidents feat, and be the
better for it at it's termination.
The ride, however, has been re-
ceived with varied emotions by
different persons. Gen. Miles
has greeted it with derision,
while girl who had just COM
pleted a horseback ride of fifteen
hundred miles to attend school in
Arkansas received the news with
a giggle, until restrained by her
mother, who rode the distance
with her, but whose risibilities
had been tempered by age. Now
a schoolgirl is so constituted that
she must receive all information
either with "breathless astonish-
ment" or with a giggle, and to a
girl who had just completed a
ride of fifteen hundred miles a
mere jaunt of ninety-eight could
not produce establishment. Hence
the giggle was due and entirely
proper, by the law of elimination.
With Gen. Miles the case is en-
tirely different. A soldier is ex-
pected TO take what comes to
him" with neither astonisment
nor any other particular emotion,
and the old soldier might have
expressed admiration, pleasure
and various other things at the
feat. But Gen. Miles doubtless
had what might be called a con-
doning CROUCH" When the
time came to retire him for age,
he did not wish to be retired,
and to show that he was not in
capacitated for service he made
a horseback ride, for the osten-
sible purpose of visiting posts in
the West, covering ninety miles
in nine hours, a ride which he
refers to lightly as good exer-
else" Gen. Miles is a much old
err man than President Roosevelt
but, on the other hand, he had at
least a nominal reason for max
ing his ride, while the President,
like the King of France, whose
fame has come down to us in a
couplet, merely went to Warren
ton and then-went back again.
Had he remained seated in his
armchair he would have been in
the identical locality he found
himself in after the exertion on
the part of his horses, just as the
King aforesaid found himself at
the foot of the hill after his just
ly celebrated feat, fittingly en-
balmed in deathless rhyme by the
poet.
A good saddle horse should
make twenty miles an hour, and
the pony express riders of the
west half a century ago made a
schedule time of 25O miles a day
between ST. Joseph, Mo-, and
Sacramento, delivering letters
from New York fourteen days
after they were mailed. Since
then professional pedestrians
have walked 600 miles and more
in six days, without relays.
There are several walkers who
could make the distance covered
by the President in seventeen
hours, but they would require
the assurance Of 4 purse # the

pRIEsTLEY PARDON PROBABLE,
Has Served Six Years i'm the Pcnitcn-
tiary for ManSlaughtcr.

Columbia, Oct. 9.-An important
pardon has been recommended in
the report Of the State Board Of Par
dons to Governor Ansel. The board
recommends executive clcmency in
the case of John Priestley. The
prisoner was tried at Walhalla at the
summer term OF the court, 1908,
charged with murder. a verdict of
manSlaughter was rendered by the
jury, and thereupon the prisoner was
sentenced to Imprisonment in the
State penitentiary for period Of fif-
teen years. 1t seems from the papers
submitted, that the deceased was a
leader of a set of thirteen dsorderly
young men of that community who
had for years INDUCED in many riot
Gus acts and were known as the
"bloody thirteen" Among other
things they would waylay citizens
upon the highway in passing from
the town Of Walhalla to the town of
West Union and subject them to both
insults and injuries. 1t also appears
that on the night OF the homicide,
the prisoner, passing along the high
way near West Union, was stopped
by number of this gang, who were
Serenading and then threatening
with violence. In the difficulties
which ensued, he fired his pistol
which killed the leader of the gang.
For this offense he was tried and
convicted as above stated. The peti-
tion for pardon comes recommended
by large number Of citizens of
that community, all of whom testify
to the good character Of the prisoner.
Judge James Aldrich, who heard the
case and passed sentence, endorsed
upon the application that he had so
little recollection of the testimony
of the case that he was unable to
make any recommendation. Solici-
tor Boggs, who tried the case, en-
dorSed thereon, that in his judgment
the verdict was right, but that the
only question was as to the length
OF the punishment.
The prisoner has already served
about six years of his sentence. Tn
der these circr instances the board is
impressed WI the thought that the
majesty of the law has been vindi-
Gated, and that the prisoner has
been sufficiently punished for the
crime for which he was tried, and the
board would, therefore, respectfully
rec mmend that the prayer OF the
petition be granted.
