WAR OTYET A GENTLE
PASTIME.

The world will not be inclined to
accept the logic of an Englishwoman
> ho has had many adventures In the
rfalksns and who holds that modern
J rumanitarianism in war has gone so
ar as to defeat its own purpose.
She seriously advances the view
. nat Red Cross aid should be dis
ensed with, because it has mitigated
re horrors of armed conflict so
,iuch that war is less dreaded than
ormorly. Even in the case of sin
lie war, according to her observa-
ION, prolongation of hostilities is
rncouraged by the recovery OF
,vounied men and sending them back
the front.
1t is. of course, true that the al
Walton of suffering in war has been
ne of the most notable gains OF
nodern times. Bullets of clean steel
,vhich make a small wound that is
asily healed enable men whose flesh
snot through by them to continue
ghting. Even when bone. is
rierced there is often no fracture.
tpcsthetics and antiseptics reduce
rotn the suffering and the mortality
{ rom military surgery.
But, at its best, as We learned
rom many accounts sent from the
scene of the recent Balkan conflict,
,yar does not yet fall short of Cen
raj Sherman's definition. Even If
it did, civilized nations would not be
ready to go back to the more cruel
of the past.

ISCOVERED EVIDENCE
THAT CLEARED DREYFUS,

1t was the next year, when he be-
| came chief Of the information bureau
Of the ministry OF war, that, upon
studying the Deryfus caes afresh, ne
| became convinced that the mar was
innocent. and he accused the notorious
Major Esterhazy of being the author
of the famous ''bordereau." The dis
coveries he made were, however, not
to tho liking Of his superiors, and he
| was sent in disgrace to Tunisia- lIev-
crtheless, he continued to fight the bat
tie of truth. His evidence at tho trial
of Zola, his duel with Colonel Henry,
his arrest on a charge of having COM
| municated secret documents TO certain
persons, and his long months OF de-
tention in a military prison are the
chief events which marked his connec-
ton with the famous affair.
IN being released from prison he was
dismissed from the army. In 1906, after
the final clearing OF Dreyfus of the
false charges Of high treason made
against him. General Picquart, by a
snecial parliamentary decree, was rein
stated in the French army. with the
rank of brigadier general. A few months
later he was promoted to tho command
OF a division Of infantry at Paris. When
Clemenceau formed his cabinet he gave
the portfolio of minister of war TO Gen.
eral Picouart. who had fought so gal
lantIy in the cause which Clemenceau
himself so valiantly espoused. When the
Clemenceau ministry fell General Pic
quart was given the commission to form
| a new cabinet.

The aeroplanes will have lost half
their strength when the fight is over
yet in all probability most Of the ships
will be gone, possibly with tip OF

When the aeros returned, al the

know they will not be permitted TO
ute night falls that the giant BAL
looms, high above, WIN creep over
them and from an altitude Of q mile
or so, gleefully pass the night In
efforts to drop high explosives ON
the protected decks.
All this would be very nico II we
had the air craft. The United States
now owns seventeen aeroplaneo, and
not one dirigible.
A dirigibie costs about $4,000
complete. an aeroplane about $l0.00e,
and Congress has just Appropriated
$12J, 900 to be used in air craft
