WHAT WAR MEANS.

Wanton Destruction May Mark ths
 Progress of an Army.
 "All is fair in love and war;" runs the old Saying. and MT. E. A Vizetelly in his volume of "reminiscences, My Days of Adventure" proves the truth of 1t. Referring to the appearance of the rail way station at Nantes during the Franco-Gsrman war, he says:
 Never since have l seen anything re- sembling 1t. A thousand panes of glass belonging to windows or roofing had been shlvered to atoms. Every mirror in either waiting or refreshment rooms had been pounded to pieces, every gilt frame broken Into little bits. The clock lay about in small fragments; account books and printed forms had been torn to scraps; partitions, chairs, tables, benches, boxes, nests of drawers, had been hacked, split, broken, reduced to mere strips of wood; the large stoves were overturned and broken, and the marble refreshment counter, some thir- ty feet long and previously one of the features of the station, now streWed the floor in particles, suggesting gravel. It was indeed an amazing sight, the more amazing as no such work of de- struetion could have been accomplished without extreme labor.
 "When we returned to the inn for dinner I asked some questions.
 "'WhO did ltT
 "The first German troops that came here was the answer.
 "'Why did they do It7 Was 1t be- cause your men had cut the telegraph wires .and destroyed some of the per. manent wayT

A Choice Bunch of "5uIis" From the
 House of Commons.
 There Is no place like the house of commons for "nice Arrangement of metaphors." It will be a long time before we have a mixture" equal to the outburst of an effuslYe orator who said, "The British lion, whether 1t is roaming the deserts of India or climb ing the forests of Canada, will not draw in It's horns or retire into it's she'll"
 It recalls the famous "bull" made by Sir William HRrt-Dyke, the Union ist eL-minister, who caused uproari0us laughter in the house of commons one day by remarking: "The right shonor- able gentleman has caught big shsh in his time. He has gone to the top of the tree to find them"
 Abiding to an item of 100000 in the army estimates one year, certain member described it as "a flea bite in the ocean," while another, advocating an Increase In the, European troops employed In India, remarked, "You may depend upon 1t, sir, the pale face of the British soldier is the backbone of the Indian army"
 An Irish member speaking of suicide said, "The only way to stop 1t Is to make 1t a capital offense, punishable with death" It was the same member who assured ths house that "as long as Ireland was silent under her wrongs England was deaf to her cries." while 1t was during a debate on the scandal of packed juries during the Irish trou- bles that a member in support of the government exclaimed, By trial by jury have l lived, and, by the blessing of God, with trial by jury will die"
 There was a wild howl of delight, too, when some prOsy member was careless enough to remark, "The time has come and ls rapidly arriving" which is equal to the cry of the mem Der who wished a motion was lat the bottom of the bottOmless pIt"-Lon- don Tit Bits.

 Even in the presence of his royal pupils Handel would sometimes fly into most violent passions.

 "Royal highnessT snorted the musi- clan contemptuously. Bah! De re- spect is due to ne! There are many brincesses, but only one Handel"
 On another occasion, when George L sent a message summoning him to an interview, he returned this answer:
 Dell his bajesty he bust waid. By tIbe is bore imbordant dan hls!"
 Viotti. the famous French musician of the eighteenth century, had an equal contempt for royalty and an eX- aggerated opinion of himself, as the following story shows: One day he was summoned to Versailles to play before Marie Antoinette and the court The performance had begun; the open- ing bars of bis faYorite solo command ed breathless attention, when a cry was heard:

 When Marie Antoinette once inquir- ed of Gluck how bis new opera was progressing he answered, Madame, It Is nearly finished, and assure you it will be superb" a conceit which was rlvaled by that of Meyerbeer, who, when a friend declared that if any thing better could be composed than one of his rival operas he would dance on his head. answered, 'If that is so I should advise you to start pFacticing at once, for have just commenced the fourth act of The HuguenotsP

A Wonderful Gorge.

Yosemite valley, in the southern part of the Yosemite National park, is a great gorge about seven miles long and three-fourths of a mile wide, with a level park like meadow in Its center. The great cliffs which form the wall of the valley rise almost vertically to a height of about 5000 feet and in many places are beautiful waterfalls which have a vertical drop of from 600 to 200 feet.

Steam Power,

The name of the first man to dis cover the power of steam will never be known. As early as 1s0 B. O., at Alexandria, Egypt, we hear of 'rHerO's engine" a sort of steam using engine. From the time of Hero to the seven teenth century the subject IS unheard of. About 1901, Giovanni Battista del la Porta wrote a treatise on the steam engine. The great name in the his tory of steam and Its application is James Watt, 17G3.

by the following story: During the

his comrades and try to surprise one
of the German scouting patrols. When
he returned and reported that his ef.

asked why he had volunteered such
risky work. The corporal replied that

what did you get?" asked the officer.
The corporal grinned and showed two
