SUFFERINGS IN
WAKE or WAR.

General Philip II. Sheridan, to-
wards the close Of the civil war III
America. is quoted as saying that
he would make the beautiful Shen-
andoah Valley so desolate that a
crow flying over the country would
be competed to carry It's ratlons'
The titantic struggle now i'll prog
ress in Europe is producing many
sad pictures. Historic cities have
been utterly destroyed, and homes
of the humble classes representing
the savings Of a lifetime have moth
ing save blackcned chimneys to
show where they formerly stood.
Houses in the country near Paris arc
marked for similar late. Not OIL
ly will the poorer classes be called
upon to sacrifice their all. but the
mansions Of the great will fall by
reason of military necessity. The
million dollar home Of the GouldS
will meet Il fate similar to- that
of homes of peasants.
