BATTLES OF OLD BLOODlER
THAN THOSE OF THE PRESENT

gagged than In the battles today in
Belgium, France and Galicia.
The English crossbow, under the
conditions in which 1t was used, was a
deadlier weapon than the present high
power magazine rifle. The English
archer used to boast that for every
shaft in his quiver he carried a foe
mans life. The crossbow was effective
at 900 yards. and in those days masses
of men moved against each other
without other thought than to come to
close grips. Under such conditions
nearly shaft shaft from a crossbow
found a mark. The English crossbow
won the battle of Crecy. and on that
bloody field the French. out of an army
of 10000. lost 1900 knights and 10000
foot soldiers.
One of the fierce battles of the Amer
fcan civil war was the battle of An
tietam. Gen. Longstreet once wrote
that it was "the bloodiest single day of
fighting Of the war" According to fig
ures now generally accepted as correct
there were $4,000 men on the Confed-
crate side engaged and on the Union
ally engaged. The loss at Antietam in
killed, wounded and missing was 23,50Q,
and counting the total number of men
engaged as $4,000 the loss was one
man out of six. 1t was terrible loss,
figured on the percentage basis. and
the results are the more appalling
when one reflects that this loss was
sustained in the engagement of one
day.

WITH war raging around Paris and
w bombs dropping on the city from
German airships. popular interest is
aroused as to the part the Eiffel tower
may play in the present conflict There
are many possibilities that this huge pile
of iron the tallest in the world. may be
used as a target by the enemy.
Its height. which IL 984 feet. OF nearly
twice as great as the Washington Monu-
ment, makes 1t a conspicuous piece Of ar
chitecture for miles around. The allied
forces investing Paris appreciate the ad-
yantages of observation OF their foes as
afforded by this colossal structure.
The view from the top Is so extensive
that one may see fifty-five miles away, or
as far to the southwest as Chartres. and
to ViIlers Cotterels by looking to the
northeast This tower might prove Of the
greatest value as a signal station for the
French. or 1t might be used az a small
fort in itself serving as a point Of at
tack upon the invaders.
Its strong wireless equipment is Of
speculative value In time OF battle, but
whatever possibilities Of advantage are
AFFORDED by the tower they will no doubt
be best realized and appreciated by the
French.
The Eifeel tower. which is supported at
the base by four great feet Of interIaced
ironwork united with one another by
graceful curves, covers two and a half
acres of ground. The first platform of
the tower is 1870 feet high. while the Sec
oud is twice that altitude.

This old town, some thirty-eight
miles southeast OF the capital, is some-
times called the melancholy Provina,
owing to it's old ruins and its many
vicissitudes of fortune in the wars
which have racked 1t since the ninth
century. The remains of a wonderful
thirteenth century line of fortifications
are one of the evidences OF it's impor-
tance in the earlier times. This line
makes a circuit Of about four miles,
inclosing an area Of 500 acres: 1t is
generally round. The large tower situ
ated within the line and variously
known as the kings, caesars or pris-
oner's tower. Is one Of the most curl
GUS examples Of a twelfth century keep

down from this point the street. parks
