A HERO.
:. A&H%....:sA% $4,000: :.


Whether the present revolution in
Mexico sets it's mark on history is
questionable, but already it has devel-
'oped situations that deserve a place
iu the enduring records of the repub-
lie. Yesterdays dispatches told the
story Of an insignificant sklrmish-in-
significant as such things usually are
measured-which, however. was made
notable by the heroism Of a boy. A
second lieutenant beardless, callow
and just out of school led his COM
.pany in a hopeless fight against vastly
superior numbers. All but two of that
brave little band were killed, and each
man died, If uselessly, still for his
country as bravcy as patriots any
where have died i'm defense of their
flag. When peace comes, as come it
eventually must, the powers that re-
main should not forget the memory Of
the heroic boy who sacrificed his life
for what appeared TO him TO be duty's
sake. In this country we were wont
to think that Mexicans were towards,
that they neither knew nor had the
courage TO fight. But now and then
we find splendid examples OF courage
among them. and IL may be that with
the right kind of training and the
right kind of leadership they could
make as splendid soldiers as their nor
thern neighbors, who are born fight
ing men.
The fate Of the young second lieu
tenant who lost his life at Cajones will
remind many that the best soldiers of
history were little more than boys. Ma
poleon's veterans, or many of them,
were mere striplings. A few cam
paigns, a few years of service and the
French emperor's soldiers developed
into perhaps the finest fighting ma
chine the world has ever known. our
own civil war was fought by boys.
The men who wore the blue and the
men who wore the gray were, the sta
tistics show. extremely young. Even
our more recent experience i'm Cuba
and the Philippines proved again and
again that the soldiers on whom de-
volved the work OF the war were young
men. Hotheaded youth. young bodies
that are able 20 stand the strain put
upon them, lads who are brave, and
who are young enough 20 be trained
and still not so old as to count costs

HORSES IN THE CIVIL WAR.

The destruction Of horses during the
Civil War was enormous. In the fiscal
year of 1864. the government pur-
numbers 10000 head of horses. There
was one period of eight months of that
year when the army of the Potomac
alone used over 10000 head. and Cen
eral Sheridan, i'm his memorable cam
paign in the Shenandoah Valley, re-
quired $50 new animals per day. In
addition to this were the unnumbered
thousands destroyed also by the Con-
federate armies.
