DOGS In Wartime,

Dogs have gone to the wars from the
earliest times. They barked ut the
siege Of Troy. In those early days,
however. they We're used as sentinels
and for purposes of defense. In the
middle ages they attacked. The track
ing mission of the Scottish bloodhound
has been noted, but the dogs We're also
used to attack cavalry. For this duty
they We're clothed in coats Of mail
studded with spikes and scythes to
confuse the horses. And when fire
brands We're also attached to the mail
the opposing camp looked for fire ex-
tinguishers. That these dogs played
no mean part in the field is proved by
the fact that Henry VIII. offered the
Spanish king. Charles ". 10000 auxil-
iaries and 1000 war dogs to help him
against Francis 1.-London Chronicle.

BORDEAUX CAPITAL IN 1871.
After Sedan First Parliament Of Third
Republic Met There.


Bordeaux. which was made the tenn
porary capital of France. is :3'59 miles
southwest OF Paris on the Orleans rail-
way. 1t has 100000 inhabitants and is
on the west bank of the Garonne, sixty
miles from the sea. in the center Of the
wine growing district Of Medoc. 1t is
the fourth commercial port of France.
The city was the head of the Giron-
dists in the revolution and in the reign
Of terror suffered severely.
In 1871 the French government was
transferred from Paris to Tours, 145
miles southwest of Paris. and when the
Russians approached the latter city
was moved on to Bordeaux. The pro-
visional government made Bordeaux it's
came the headquarters Of the national
assembly. which accepted the prelim.
inaries of peace there.

measure Of precaution was adopted by
the third republic soon after it was
founded in September, 1870. on the
ruins of the third empire. After the
surrender ut Sedan the people Of Paris
rose against Napoleon III. A govern

to carry on the campaign against the
Prussians and to look after govern
mental affairs.
The meeting at which the dethrone>

ALLIANCES EUROPE HAS MADE
Many Have Been Formed and Broken
In the Last Century.

NV @eSA OSSsSNS
In the history of Europe during the
past century nothing is more curious
than the easy way in which national
alliances have been made. broken,
made again and changed as dynastic,
economic and racial reasons have de-
mandcn. Here are Il few of these
political transformations:
In 1915 Russia. Prussia. England and
Austria combined against France and
crushed the power of Napoleon forever.
In 1919. when revolution in Hungary
threatened the house of Iapsburg in
force of arms placed the present en-
peror, Francis Joseph. firmly upon his
throne.
In 1906 England. France, Austria
and Italy allied themselves with the
Turks against Russia in the Crimean
var
In 1850 France defeated Austria in
Italy and gave 4 great impetus to the
unification Of Italy.
In 1866 Prussia gave it's present ally
Austria. a fearful heating at Sndowa
and forced it out of first place in the
Germanic confederation.
In 1870 Prussia inflicted upon France
the defeat. with accompanying loss Of
territory. that has been the cause of
EurOpe's unrest eve since.
In 1877 Russia defeated the Turks
decisively. but was cheated out Of the
rightful fruits of her victory by a COM
bination of the other powers in the
treaty of Berlin.

N this year Of titantic conflict,
when the greatest war in history
is raging on the fields Of Europe.
the Red Cross passes the tiftieth
anniversary Of its organization on an
international basis. For half a century
the Red Cross insignia, by treaty and
agreement, has been respected by CIV
ilized nations wherever its crimson flag
was raised in war or peace. In 1864,
when the civil war was drawing to an
end. a convention Of nations assem-
.bled at Geneva, published and ratified
the first code governing its operations.
Since then there have been revisions
and notifications, all tending to fur
Their alienation Of the horrors Of battle
through an extension Of the immunity
Of the Red Cross and ending finally in
the revision Of 1906.
Under the code then adopted the Red
Cross today Is operating on the Euro
pean battletields. The convention was
signed by thirty-five states, only Tur-
key, Salvador, Bolivia, Venezuela. Mica
ragua and Colombia abstaining from
participation. But it was on Aug. o.,
fifty years ago, that the first conven-
ton laid the foundation on which the
Red Cross attained the international
authority essential to insure its sue
cess.
The work Of the famous sanitary
commission during the American civil
war was the inspiration Of the interna-
tional convention. The great good ac-
cOmplished by this organization dis
covered to the world the possibilities
OF rendering practical Succor to the
sick and wounded Of belligerent armies.
Long before this, however. Florence
Nightingale had set her heroic example
to disclose to the world what women
could do in the field hospitals of war.
In 1854, when all England was stirred
to its depths by the report Of the suf-
ferings Of the sick and wounded in the
Crimea, Miss Nightingale. with IL staff
of thirty-Seven nurses, set out for Scu-
wounded from the field of B~nlaklaya.
From that moment. it might be said.

Today whoever l%egitimately wears
the Geneva badge is, to all intents and
purposes, neutral. Buildings over

ambulances and tents are similarly i'm.

And, Of course, the same convention
applies with equal force to the sick
and wounded Of belligerents who are
under Red Cross protection. On the

suggest, and a card detailing the ma

made to do more than supply emergen-
cy treatment and to make Il swift III

AS soon as possible the soldier is

English Nurses We'll Trained.
The system is deliberately organized
in England, and there the Red Cross
nurses-the women-undergo a rigor-
ous campaign training to acquaint
them with warlike conditions. They
learn not only the essentials Of hos
pital attendance, but learn. too, the
details of quick action In emergency.
They must become good hOrsewOmen,
inure themselves to hasty shifts Of
position and prepare themselves for
all the discomforts and eXigencies of
life in the field and in the camp. They
are especially uniformed In Il practical
garb and carry with them emergency

When a Soldier Falls Wounded.
In actual battle, to use the British
system by way Of illustration, when Il
soldier falls wounded he does. first Of
; all, what he can to assist himself. He
carries with him II first aid outfit, and
with this, by himself or with the as
s~istance Of comrades. he is able to ap-
ply an immediate dressing to the
wound to prevent infection and to stay
the loss OF blood. AS sOOn as possible,

make his way thither alone or be borne
from the field by stretcher bearers, who,
even in the heat of action, go forward
to render aid.
