war. Illinois, Minnesota and Rhode
Island sent a seventh of their entire
population into the ranks of the Fed
eral armies. OF these volunteers, Hi
nois lost a seventh of her $4,000
citizen soldiers. Minnesota was re-
duced to ninth by death, while Rhode
Island lost an 18th of its contribution
of citizen soldiers.
Seven states sent every eighth citi-
zen to the front-Connecticut, In
diana, Michigan, New Jersey, New
York, Ohio and Wisconsin. Michigan
gave a sixth of her troops on the bat
tie line, Wisconsin and Indiana gave a
seventh of all their troops; Ohio lost
a ninth; New York and Connecticut
mourned the loss of a tenth of their
quota; New Jersey lost but a twelfth
of her soldiers.
The largest number of soldiers on
the battle line under the Stars and
Stripes was given by New York. She
sent $4,000 men, and Of this number
one in every nine, or nearly 1900,
lost his life. Pennsylvania ranks Sec
ond in the number of troops fur
nished. Her contribution during the
four years was $4,000 and her loss
was over $4,000.
Tennessee holds a remarkable rec
ord. This State was divided in her
sympathy. While she sent 129 regi.
ments to the front under the stars and
bars, more than $1,000 Tennesseeans
fought under the Stars and Stripes.
A larger percentage of Tennesseeans
lost their lives in the ranks of the
Uhion than any other State in the
North or South-nearly 1000 of her
men dying, or more than a fifth of
the entire number.
Concluded next week.

King Herold of England when he lost
his life and his kingdom in battle
against the Duke of Normandy.
0rleans-The name brings with it
the chivalry of old France. But there
were more lives lost in a single bat
lie of the American civil war than
fought under the inspiration of Joan
Of Arc to save the realm from being
conquered by the English.
Blenheim-Where the French and
Bavarians were driven back by the
English under the Duke of Marlbor-
ough. The single State of Massachu-
sets, which was but one of the AZ
States and Territories that sent vol
unteers to the American civil war,
furnished more troops than the COM
blned armies on the field of Blen-
helm.
Waterloo-What a mighty pageant
sweeps before the imagination! And
yet the combined armies at Waterloo
were 100000 less than the citizen
soldiery sent to battle from the State
of New York alone during the Ameri-
can civil war.
The American Revolution, which
established the great Republic on the
Western Hemisphere, becomes almost
insignificant in military grandeur
when compared with the battles and
sieges Of the American civil war,
which cemented the States into a
perpetual brotherhood.
The American Revolution.
There were two soldiers left killed
or dying in the American civil war to
every man who fought in the Ameri-
can Revolution. More soldiers we're
left dead and wounded in the seven
days. retreat than fought in the COM
bined armies of the English and the
Americans at Bunker Hill. More sol.
diers fell at Antietam than were in |
the entire British army which was
surrendered by Burgoyne at Saratoga.
Twice as many soldiers were missing
after the battle of Gettysburg as were
in the combined armies that lined up
under Washington and CORVALLIS
when the British surrendered at |
Yorktown and the political integrity
Of new Nation was acknowledged by
the civilized world.
The American civil war in the mag
nitude of its combined fighting forces
has not been exceeded by modern
wars. From its ranks could have
been marshalled nearly two armies of
the total strength of Russia and ia
pan combined in the Russo-Japanese
war; more than two armies of the
combined strength of France and
Germany in the Franco-Prussian war;
six armies of the combined strength
of the British and the Beers in the
war; more than seven
armies Of the combined strength of
the Russians and the allies of the
Crimean War, and more than 20
armies of the combined strength of
the troops actually engaged by Spain
and the United States in the Spanish
American War.

A Million Lives Lost.

latter figure is larger tnan that of thu
worlds wars except the Napoleonic
campaigns, which, lasting 10 years,
or about five times longer, were re-
sponsible for just about five times as
many lives.
The American civil war cost at its
lowest estimate u times more than
the war between Prussia, Austria and
Italy in 1866, which entailed loss of
$4,000 men. In the Franco-Prussian
War of 1870 and 1871, one of the
swiftest and severest conflicts of mod
ern times, the aggregate losses on
both sides amounted to 225,000 men,
or less than one-half that of the
American civil war. The Russo Turk
ish War of 1877 cost almost a quartz
of million lives. The Boer War be-
tween Great Britain and two South
African Republics, from 1899 to 1901,
cost in human life about one-fifth tina
of the American civil war.
In the Spanish-American War in
1898 the loss of life probably was not
more than 5000 men. The Philippine
aftermath, which cost the lives of
from 5000 to 10000 United States
soldiers-many of them dying from
the effects of the climate-was less
than that Of many single battles in
the American civil war. The highest
estimate of the losses in the great war
between the Russians and the Japan
csc is about half million, or not so
large as the lowest estimate of hu,
man life sacrificed thru the American
civil war.
The direct financial cost of the Cd.
Grafton of the American civil war wa
about $S,OOOOOO, 900, which, with de-
struction of property, arrangement of
the power of labor, pension systems
and other economic losses, is in
creased until the total reaches $780,
900 100000.
The direct expenditure of eight bill
lions alone is five times that of the
direct cost of the Crimean War; near
" thrice that of the Franco-Prussian
War; seven times that of the Russo
Turkish War; six times that of the
British-Boer War; four times that of
