NAMING A BATTLE.
Opposing Armies Do Not Always Give
II the Same Designation.


Many Of the worlds most famous
battles have two names. Thus the bat
tie Of Waterloo is known by that name
only among English speaking peoples.
The French call it the battle of La
Belle Alliance The battle that decid-
ed the war between Prussia and Aus
tria in 1866 is known among the Ger
mans as the battle OF Sadowa. but the
Austrians call IL the battle Of KOenig-
graetz. In the war of 1870, between
Germany and France, the great en-
gagement that the Germans call the
battle OF Gravelotte is spoken Of by
the French as the battle of st. Privat.
The same thing was common in our
civil war. The battle that is known in.
the north as the battle of Bull Run
would not be recognized by most south
erners under that name. In the south
it is invariably called the battle of
Manassas. SO the battle that the Fed
eral generals called the battle Of Pitts
burg Landing was by the Confederates
called the battle of Shiloh. Antietam
IL called in the south the battle of
Sharpsburg The writer. a southerner,
whose father was Confederate Off
Ger, was twenty years old before he
ever heard of the battle of Antietam,
although he was familiar with all the
details of the battle of Sharpsburg.
The reason for this is that the OPP
posing armies always name the battle
from some prominent geographical
landmark. and as they look at the field
from different points of view they nat
urally settle on different names Thus
at Waterloo. the battle took its Eng
lish name from the little village where
Wellington made his final headquar
tiers and whence he sent to England
the first dispatch that announced his
victory, Sc in 1866 the headquarters
OF the PrpsSian army was near the vii
lage of Sa Iowa. whereas that Of the
Austrians was near the village Of Koe-
niggraetz At Gravelotte the little vii
lage of that name was an important
point in the German lines. On the side
of the French the hamlet of St Privar

THE "WHY" OF A "HoT BOX"

In answer to the question "What is

There is no excuse for a hot box

The following beautifully clear sum

is due to the Rev. W. Wilks. the ia

Shirley poppy:
If you cross pure yellow and pure
green peas either way-it matters not
which is seed bearer and which pollen
bearer-you will get all yellow seeds.
If you SOW these hybrid seeds, each
will. if it terminates, produce a plant
which will bear, say, forty seeds, thir-
ty of which will on the average be vel
low and ten green. The green. if sown

erations. will always bear green seeds

Not so the thirty yellow. These
when sown will on the average pro
duce ten plants bearing all pure yellow
seeds. which will be constant and true
to the original yellow parent for count
less generations. The remaining TWEEN
ty plants will be impure yellow, each
plant producing, on the average. one
quarter OF It's seeds pure yellow. one
quarter pure green and one-half i'm
pure yellow. which last will repeat the
process and proportion practically for
ever.

Merlin Beck was aged q years and 2
months and with his parents had been a
resident of this city for Is years. He
was well liked by everyone and the sin
cere sympathy of the community goes
out to his parents in their sudden ber-
eavement.

attended in body by the Arkansas VAL
ley Motorcycle club-of which the young

ber OF friends.
