STORY OF FREE LANCE
MILITARY CAREER
Especial Cable to The Times Dispatch

Especial Cable to The Times D!spa tch1
tome July 1.-Peppino Garibaldl. a
hero of the Mexican revolution and
nephew of the great Liberator of Italy
relates the "Corriere della Sera," a
remarkably interesting story of his
free lance military career.
This gallant young leader. still on
the threshold of his thirties. has al
ready fought IN seven wars AS a
student he ran away from the Univer-
sity of Rome to enlist In the foreign
legion in the Turk Greek war. wherein
he participated in three battles. His
father. General Ricciotti Garibaldi,
first opposed the idea. but afterwa rds
agreed. with this provtso: Very we'll
my son. but yoC must remain a cor
poral as long as the campaign lasts
For Garibaldi there Is no worthler
post than either the supreme command
or simple corporalship."
After fresh term of studies In
Rome and some exciting adventures in
Nicaragua, Peppino set our for South
Africa
"At the outset" he says. "ali my
sympathies were with the Beers.
Gradually l became convinced that the
blame was on their side, and at nv
fathers instructions I became one of
Lord Kitchener's attaches Serving

the wrong. ] am a strong believer
in victory for the right. That is my
hope; in fact. the hold youths fighting

Peppino makes no secret that all
his warrior undertakings up to the
present time are designed as a prep
aration and apprenticeship for big
campaign of independence nearer
home. which he intends to conduct
when the moment ripens

prospect Of remaining there and per-
forming an important part in the life
OF the country. 1t is not strange,
therefore, that "A considerable number
OF these men have already frankly
expressed themselves ms preferring the
veto bill to the Lansdowne bill.
But probably what has done most
to bring the House of Lords to reason
is the refusal of the public to be ex-
cited over their fate. It Is somewhat
disturbing to find after you have
called the gods to witness that the end
Of the world is coming. that nobody
pays the smallest attention. The re-
suit is that the very prospects them

perhaps. which has done more than
anything else TO chill the Indignation
of the House of Lords and to prepare
them for the acceptance of the veto
bill.
AT meeting the other day for the
purpose of aboiishing the smoke
nuisance. which makes London one of
the dirtiest cities in Europe, Ber-
hard Shaw made some remarks on gen
ius and smoke which are we'll worth

tho military sense. yet IN consequence
OF the undertaking that is character
istic OF rural lie. there is to be no
ticed every year 3 steady decrease in
the military fitness of recruits from
the outlying Districts.
He attributed this to the tendency
OF the rural population to sell their
produce instead OF using 1t for their
own nourishment and to buy instead
cheaper. inferior foodstuffs. Ie also
asserted that there was growing
disinclination for physical eXertion as
shown by I fact that Germany i'm
ports $4,000 laborers for the harvest
every year. although. he added. every
year we also hear complaints of I'M
employment from the big towns"
Count Posadowskys remarks are
hardly likely to enhance his reputa-
ton for sagacity as an economist. 1t
is true that the country laborer is
underfed and has poor physique, but
it is economic necessity which forces
him to sell his produce in the towns
and buy cheaper and inferior goods
for his own consumption. Harvest
laborers are brought in simply because
there is lack of labor In the villages,
and because even the unemployed in
the cities would not tolerate the con-
ditions of employment
The conditions of housing In the
German cities may be wildly Illus
trated by quotation from official re-
ports. For example. of Berlin's $780,
coo dwellings in 1905. $4,000 had only
one room provided with stove, and
roughly, one-seventh were not even
provided with n kitchen. Seven per
cent. of NIL the dwellings of Berlin
are overcrowded and IA per cent. of
the poorer class live in unhealthy and
unsanitary conditions. Poor families
strive to reduce expenditure by crowd
Ing into dwellings too small to hold
them. and even then take dodgers and
let beds by the night. The birth of
children is regarded In these dwell
ings as curse, and immortality is an
inevitable result OF tho overcrowdinE.
Count Posadowsly suggested legis-
lation strictly controlling housing con-
ditions, together with tho erection of
healthy, small dwellings. as a cure
for the evil.

To begin with the external changes.
Who would have thought some years
ago that a public service of motor cars
would run daily from Cattaro to Get

Cettinje and Scutari-in-Albania within
thirty-siX hours of Rome? The growth
OF the village capital. now lighted by
electricity. has been rapid. while the
magnificent italian legation and tho
fine palaces of Austria and Russia
would do credit to q much larger seat
of government. The old billiard

school boys. while a huge and brand
new block OF public offices contains
under one roof all tho sections of the
Montenegrin administration.
Telephones connect the chief towns
with Cettinje. and the AIarconi Com
pany has a wireless service from Anti
vafi to Bari. Since 1906 the Black
Mountain has had its own coinage;
