mond from the direction Of Petersburg.
Lee chung to the capital and retired
from it only after ten-month siege.
In the operations in northeastern France
the allied armies have not conformed as
a whole to the German fanking move
ment. The French have continued to
hold their original line on the eastern
frontier from Verdun south to Belfort
Only the left and the left center have
fallen back and Gen. Joffre has refused
to let the fear Of an Investment Of Paris
loosen his hold on the eastern frontier
line or convert his army into mere
covering force for the protection Of the
capital.
In that respect his defense differs en-
tirely from that made by Gen. Lee. II
Lee had held fast with his left to the
Rappahannock river and let his right be
bent back continuously by Grants flank
ing movements until the Federal army
had touched the fertilization on the
northwest side of Richmond there
would be a real parallel between the
present operations in France and the OPP
erations in Virginia in 1864. But Gen.
Joffre has not followed Lees example at
all. He has not moved the bulk OF his
forces west in order to cover Paris. He
has been willing to let the Germans get
up to the Paris Notifications and under
take a Siege He is now defending Paris
only incidentally. 1t is evidently his pur-
pose, if defeated in his present position.

the worst comes to the worst he can

Paris entirely to its own resources.

THE FRENCH DEFENSE.
Difference in Strategy as Practlced
by Gems. Lee and Joffre.

From the New YORK Trioune
The siege of Paris by the Germans Is
still in the air. The French capital is
constructively in danger of investment.
since the German troops have already
skirted the northeastern segment OF its
circle of forts. But 1t is no more besieged
than Richmond was In 1852, when Gen.
McCielian's army. within seven miles Of
the city, idled away five weeks in the
Chickahominy swamps.
The German turning movement. which
apparently aimed at getting between the
allied forces and Paris at some point
north-northeast Of the capital. failed of
its purpose when the allies retreated so
far that their extreme left wing rested
ON the Paris forts. Now the turning
army has headed east and away from
Paris, probably for the purpose of help
ing to deliver a converging attack on
the allied left center.
The strategy Of the German campaign
has been compared with the strategy Of
Grants campaign against Richmond In
1884 But the resemblance holds good
only in q few tactical externals. Grant S
objective was the Confederate capital and
Lees sole purpose was to cover that cap
ital by keeping his army between 1t and
the army of his adversary. From the
Wilderness down to Cold Harbor Grant.

that movement, SO that after the bloody
defeat at Cold HArbor Grant had to go

Anglicizing German Names.
From the London Chronicle.

From the London Chronicle.
Many British citizens born in this
country, and others who have become
naturalized, who bear German names are
hurrying to Anglicfze them. Among the
recent changes Of names announced are
Mr.. Schultz. who has become Scott; a
family formerly Of johannesburg. who
have changed their name from Kope-
lowitz to Kerby-the remaining family
likeness in this case being confined to X.
Even this resemblance does not exist in
another family name of Oppenheimer.
which has become Fowler. or In MI
Keiffenheim. who has changed into Tru-
bridge.
Other changes retain a suggestion OF
the original. For instance, Mr.. Kurt
Schwarz has been translated into Mr..
Curtis Black, and a family whose sur
name was Schwabacher has become
Shaw. 1t does not require much change
to transform Lchtenfeld into Litchfield,
or LANCE into Lang. Mr.. Raphael Schloss,
with a literal translation. has become
Castle. Mr.. Schmidt, Smith. and Mr..
Honig, Honey. Among the other recent
changes of names are Rosenheim to
Rose. Kaufman to Kaye, Hoffman, to
Codrington Gunzenhauser to Gee, Auer-
bach to Allback. Braunstein to Bramston,
Schlesinger to Slater and krailsheimer
to Kerr.

plying to proposals to bring about peace
in Europe forwarded from constituents IN
his state declared that President Wilson

Secretary Bryan wrote that the Presi-

which had reached him. together with
the many other suggestions that are made
by the peace-loving citizens Of the coun-

Kaiser and Helgoland.
from the London Chronicle.

From the London Chronicle.
The kaiser was far from sharing Bis
marck's contemptuous view of Helgo-
land. At the banquet August 10. 1880,
when Germany took it over. he spoke
of it as this beautiful island" and
recalled that when he was last there
in 1873 he had said he would be happy
if he lived to see 1t once more Ger
man. Drinking to the health of Queen
Victoria in thanks for the transfer OF
the island, he remarked: She at
taches great Importance to living in
friendship with me and my people
She appreciates German officers as
highly as German melody" To the
crews of his warshtps he described
Helgoland as destined to be a bull
wark in the sea, a protection to Ger.
man fishermen. port of supply fol-
my warships, and place of refuge and
protection in the German ocean agains,

show themselves upon it."

Music in Camp.

From the New York Times.
The great war songs are peace songs.
They are sung more in time Of peace
than in time of war. 1t Is agreeable to
imagine the soldier marching into battle
inspired by the national anthem. but
the regimental band knows his needs
and inspires him with something from
the music halls There is nothing SUP
prising in the fact that Tommy Atkins
war song in the present campaign should
be not God Save the King" or Rule

Defeat and National Morale.

From the London Chronicle.
Prince Buelow shares the views OF
Gen. Won Bernhard as to the salutary
effects Of defeat on the morale OF
nation. The ex-chancellor once de-
clared that Germany has invariably
shown herself greater in misfortune
than In prosperity. The loss Of her
feet would not necessarily deprive her
build It Such loss would still leave
Germany materially more powerful
than she has ever been In modern
times. It would not compare In mag
nitude with the disasters encountered
by Germany in one single campaign
against the first Napoleon. against
whom she ultimately rose in triumph"

Old Demand for Ships.

From the London Chronic1e.
The demand for more ships was
heard in England as far back as the
sixteenth century. In 1577-slsven
years before the Armada-Dr. John
Dee published his proposals for the
establishment of petty navy royal"
1t was to consist of "three-score tall
ships or more, but in no case fewer; ;

country can have such liberty for in

Every year on Trinity Sunday comes

Origin of English Army.
From the London Chronicle.

From the London Chronicle.
Our army and navy both are more
modern institutions than is generally
supposed AS an organized force the
land services date only from 1645, when
Cromwell established his famous new
model" army of $4,000. Such force
proved so costly that Charles II reduced
it to 5000 men. and Its strength re-
manned at something like that figure
until well into the eighteenth century.
The navy's claim Of 1000 years history
IS founded on the building of a feet by
King Alfred to fight the Danes, but as
a national force II dates more properly
from the reign of Henry VIII. Most
Of the vessels which fought the armada
were privately owned.
