 "We average oni ytwo or three children to a family; do you consider that large"
 "Oh. not" l replied but l know of many families haveing eight or ten children
 "Ohi the workingmen ccntaiuly have large families. and it is a fine thing for the army. But it costs so much to educate our children and get them started in life that we can not afform more than two or three"

 The matter has a different aspect for some of the parents, who feel that the army deprives them of the help of theih sons in earning a livelihood for the family. Such parents make the most of any physical defect that might excuse onfrom military duty.

In the following article an Ameri-l can woman tells how the German mil !. itary organization touches the com mon life in Germany. She does not attempt to describe the celebrated l war machine"
 Tho Army officers are the leaders of German society. It is the ambi- ton of every young man Co become either an active or a reserve officer but no one whose father keeps a store or shcp can rise from the ranks.
 So slight i sthe pay that no ono who is not well-to-do can compass the distinction of being an active oi- dcer The government requires a5-. surancc of an income sufficient co maintain a family in the style called for by the position. If the young man i sready for his commission he need not wait long for the money if there is a young woman of means among his acQuaiutances, so great i sthe social distinction to be won by marrying an officer
 Military service is compulsory on an able-bodies young Germans All graduates from the gymnssia or pay schools serve only one year in Che army. and they furnish their own board and equipment From this class the officers are chosen. The ! boys of the common people, who serve two years, receive their board clothes and two and one-half cents a day for spending money. The very : best fthese are selected for the | standing army They are then re- 1 quired to serve twelve years for prac- ] tically their keep. and cannot rise above non-commissioned rank. Al l the end of their service the yare given government positions as letter carriers. railroad employees or police men, and are paid about $20 a month. ! It is because the policemen are re cruited from the petty officers that they cannot arrest army officers out ranking them. The officer is practi- cally immue fro marrest except on military charges.
 After the young men have served their terms in the army they become reserves. and are subject to call in time of war

COUNTED OUT SAYS DAVIS

PHOENIX, Sept 21-That he was deliberately counted out in the nine precincts, in Osborn and Meridian, is the belief of State Senator II. A Davis. who filed a contest in the SUI perior court of Maricopa county naming Sam P. Webb as defendant. Webb lives in Meridian
 On the face of the official returns Webb received 2423 votes and Davis 22S5 He alleges that there was a miscoaut in an the precincts named.
 It is probable that as a result of the contest the ballots from those precincts will be recOunted.

JOHN LEGG'S PLAIN TALK.
Made In an Advertisement He Put In
the Paper In 1887.

Advertising in the Sun three-quarters
of century ago was worded more pic
turesquely than it is now in some re-
spects. No big type was used, but the
advertisements hit the mark without
its aid 1t is to be doubted If some of
the advertisements which appeared
then could get into print now, for they
were outspoken TO a degree which
would offend modern susceptibilities.
For example, here is an advertisement
which appeared in the Sun of May 26,
1887:
To Shoemakers-l0 Kackmen Wanted. =
The subscriber gives the highest city
wages for good work and begs those
worthless who would filch him of his stuffs
able surprise to him If John Kemp. Thorn

ers would bring in the work they have 80
long forgotten" to return.
JOHN LEGG. 164 9Th avenue
The trade supplied cheap and good.
"Kackmen" seems to have gone out
of use completely. 1t is not given In
any of the modern dictionaries. but one
of them has "cack. baby's shoe. "
which it calls shoemakers cant.
In the same number Of the Sun T.
Baxter of 8 Fulton street advertised
that ne wanted broken bottles. but ne
did not state his use for them. There
are several advertisements for men to

FATE or THE RES0LUTE.
British Ecoromy and the End OF
Franklin's Exploring Ship.

The story OF how the brave little ex-
ploring ship the Resolute was found by
an American vessel In Davis strait aft
er q thousand mile cruise from Mel
vile island without u soul on board is
easily the most captivating In the his
tory Of arctic explora ton. The Reso-
lutte, locked In the ice. was abandoned
of her captain by advice OF the leader
of the Belcher- Franklin expedition.
The temperance OF the vessel on
Sept. II caused great sensation, and
the United States brought the vessel
with great ceremony TO Cowes In order
to present 1t to the queen of England.
The queen, the prince consort and
others of the royal family then at Os-
borne House inspected the vessel,
which had been carefully repaired and
all the original furniture retained In
position down TO the smallest trinkets
The American skipper traced before
her majesty the thousand mile course
of the vessel and expressed his belief
that Sir John Franklin was still alive
living among the Eskimos.
After many banquets the actual
transfer of the vessel took place on
Dec. 80, 1856 when the American flag
was replaced by the British. And now
comes the tragedy. The admiralty had
no sooner come into the possession OF
the vessel than il proceeded to break
1t up on the good old principle Of pub
lie economy London Chronicle.

The Foo Peril.

One of the great conquests of science
for human safety will be the discovery
of some effectual means of disclosing
to every ship at sea the approach and
position of any other vessel which may
come near In a fog. So far the fog
peril remains as deadly as it ever was
In some respects the conditions change
for the worse. The growth of com
merce increases the number Of ships
which traverse the seas Every year
the water highways are more fully oc.
cupied, and the tendency is toward 8
higher average speed. Nothing can be
seen through dense fog. Nothing can
be heard with sufficient distinctness
and certainty as to distance and direc-
ton to meet the demands of safety.
The best fog signals in use repeatedly
fail to avert terrible disasters. .-Cleve-

CRUELTY TO ANIMALS.
The Old Time Custom OF "Piowing at
the Horses Tail"


the Horses Tail"
Animals seem To have no idea OF ex
ercising TO keep warm. They just turn
their backs to the wind and crouch,
but perhaps If one had only a limited
amount of fuel it would be better just
to keep spark alive till the snap was
over than TO burn II all ont in few
hours
The first legislation against cruelty to
animals Is said to have been an enact
ment passed in the days OF Queen
Elizabeth prohibiting plowing at the
land
This custom consisted In lashing the
plow beam to the horses tail with a
bit of rope and then, while one man
held the plow. another walked back
ward before the animal guiding 1t with
blows of a stick II seems as though
this plan must have cooked the plow
so high into the air that the point
would take no hold on the soil. II
seems also as If only the most spirit
less of equines would have submitted
to the treatment. but that 1t was fire.

that one OF the non-union out side

bread is shipped here by rail in the
evening and is then taken to a

over night. The horses are housed
in the same stable. Early in the
morning the bread is distributed to
the different groceries and sold to
the public. The tr9de on this par
