ARMED ONLY WITH ARROWS
Savage Troops Did Good Service With
the Allied Armies That Fought
Napoleon.

In these days of novel war weap-
ons the bow and arrow is looked
upon as belonging to nothing nearer
than the middle ages. Yet it is only
just 100 years ago that men fought
with bows and arrows over the pres
ent battle-ground around Namur in
Belgium.
1t was in the last titanic struggle
of allied Europe against Napoleon l.
All the powers had combined to
crush him, and each brought to the
task every available man and means
of warfare in its power. Russia, not
the least among these powers,
brought into the conflict hosts of
men from the new-caught and semi
barbarous tribes of the Asiatic
steppes, Bokharans, Turkomans and
Tartars. Among these many of the
regiments were armed only with
bows and arrows.
These men were poured across the
Rhine, and, side, by side with the
Prussians, fought against the French
legions on the fields of southern Bel
GUM. They were clad, for the most
part, in skins and fought in just the
same manner in which their ances-
tors had fought Alexander the Great
more than 800 years before Christ.
Despite their rude armament, these
bowmen, according to Jomini, the
military historian, acquitted them
selves creditably against the French,
who we're equipped with the latest
firearms. 1t was the last appearance
of the bow and arrow on a European
battlefield.

INSIST THEY SAW MIRAGE"
Engllshmen Of High Standing Report
Picture Of Battle Appearing
In the Clouds.

An extraordinary story Of "mi-
rage" of a naval engagement comes
from Cowley, near Oxford, England.
1t has been related to a local jour-
nalist by the Very Rev. Alexius Cal
derbank, rector of the Franciscan
college at that place, and is con-
frmed by two Dutch students at the
college. The mirage" according
to the report, was first seen by Mr..
Calderbank. 1t lasted about twenty
minutes. Beyond the phantom shore,
at an apparent distance of many
miles, was ship enveloped in smoke.
Around this ship smaller boats were
encircling, some with two tunnels,
others with three tunnels. Viewed
through binoculars the masts could
be seen quite clearly. Later on the
ships appeared like specks upon the
horizon. Finally, just before the mi
rage disappeared, two boats left the
principal ship, which had broken
into flames. In reply to criticisms
of the statement Mr.. Calderbank in
sists that he and his students were
not misled by a combination of
clouds. The coast line remained sta
tionary, whilst the ships changed
their positions. The mirage did not
provide an inverted picture. Every
detail was in its natural position.

DIES WITH SCREW HOLES.

In hardening dies and punches in
holes it is common practice to plug
holes with asbestos, of the wick or
graduated form, to prevent injury
to the screw threads or enlargement
of the dowel holes by scaling. When
this is done trouble is often expert
enced in cleaning out the holes, as
the asbestos sometimes becomes
baked on. To avoid this the asbestos
should be mixed with graphite and
oil, as holes plugged with this mix
ture can be readily cleaned and will
be found entirely free from scale
and the like.-Scientific American.

GERMAN SUBMARINES BURN OIL,

All the German submarines are
propelled by heavy oil engines, the
quantity of fuel carried being suffi-
cient for cruising radius of from
seven hundred miles in the case of
u to nearly three times this dis
lance in the case of later vessels. As
far back as four years ago some of
the early German submarines in en-
durance trials accomplished a run of
$40 miles at 1872 knots. The in
itial "U" before the number of each
boat signifies, of course, "Untersee.

A hundred women shell divers of
Shima Province offered their services
to the japanese navy to clear the
mines from Kiaochow Bay. The
offer was declined by the navy, as
the law prohibits the employment of
women in warlike operations. These
divers are accustomed to remain in
the water for a long period. Their
idea was that, unseen by the enemy,
they could dive for the mines near
Kiaochow and move them to the
japanese warships.

EXPLANATION OF WAR LOSSES
Men Known az "Missino" Are Not A.
ways Among the Dead and
Wounded.

We learned something at Shiloh
about the way in which reports OF
losses are sometimes exaggerated in
battle. At the close of the first days
fight Sherman met a colonel Of one
of his regiments with only about a
hundred of his soldiers in ranks and
said to him, "Why, where are your
men?" The colonel cast his eyes
sadly along the line, wiped tear
from his cheek and replied in a
whimpering voice, eve went in 800
strong and that's all that's left of
u.s." "You don't tell me p exclaimed
Sherman, beginning to be deeply af-
fected by the fearful carnage. eyes,"
said the colonel, "the enemy ap-
peared to have a special spite against
u.s."
Sherman passed along some hours
afterward when the commissary was
issuing rations and found the
colonels men returning on the run
from under the bank of the river,
where they had taken shelter from
the firing, and in few minutes
nearly all of the lost 700 had re-
joined and we're boiling coffee and
eating hearty meal with an appetite
that showed they were still very
much alive.-From Gen. Horace
Porter's Campaigning With
Grant"
