Refuse Gold In Payment
A more pleasant incident was when
party of Uhlans clamored for admit
lance at a villa on the Louvain road.
They disposed of a dozen bottles OF
wine and bread and meat The non
commissioned officer In command
asked what the charge was and offered
some gold pieces in payment The
money was refused.
Near the steps of St Gudule a party
OF officers of high rank seated in q

loud laughter.
March Forward for Hours.
Hour after hour, hour after hour,
the kaiser's legions marched into
Brussels streets and boulevards.
Some regiments made a fine appear
ance. 1t was notably so In the case
of the Sixtysixth, Fourth and Twenty
sixth Not one man of these regi-
ments showed any sign of excessive
fatigue after the grueling night of
marching. and no doubt the order to
break step was designedly given to
impress the onlookers with the pow
ers of resistance Of the German sol
diers.
The railway stations, the post office,
and the town hall were at once closed.
The national flag on the latter was
pulled down and the German emblem
hoisted in it's place. Practically all
the shops were closed and the blinds
drawn on most of the windows.

What 1t Costs to Kill One
Man in Modern Warfare

The cost Of killing q man is OBJ
tanned by dividing the total cost of a
war to any Of the belligerents by the
number of men killed on the other
side
In 1s7o-1s71 France spent $400, oo0,-
600 in the actual expenses of the war.
Repairing materials and giving succor
to the victims Of the war, expenses
that are Justly to be added, cost an
other 5000, 100000. France paid ST.
600 .e00,0 600 as war indemnity. plus an
other $500. o00, 900 In interest on the
sum, loss of revenue, forced contribu-
lions by the enemy and upkeep of the
German army of occupation. This
third category Of expenses, not being
Inevitable In all wars, cannot properly
be included.
On a similar basis here are some
facts about other wars:
Russo-Turkish war 1S77-1S7S)-
Turkey, $400. 5000. 900.
Russo-Japanese war (1905)-Russia,
81 200, 100000.
The number of men killed or who
died of wounds in these wars were:
Franco-Prussfan war-Germans, 49,
600
Russo-Turkish warRussians, 49,
500.
Russo-Japanese war-Japanese, S.
500.
Whence It results that the cost of
killing each man was as follows:
In 1870-1871, $21 900.
In 1S77-1S78, $4,000.
In 1905, $20,400.
What will kill the greatest number
and reduce the effective force most
will be not the rife or cannon, but
fatigue, typhus or cholera

Senator Jones said he thought that as

there would be loud clamor against the
repeal of the clause in question. He re-
