Kite SIGNALLING OF French NAVY.

Novel ways of signaling were tried
out recently during the naval ma
neuvers in the Mediterranean by men
aboard the French warships. 1t was
generally conceded that the tests with
box kites were most efficient. The
results proved that the box kites, be-
ing light, can be hoisted even when
there is but slight breeze; and their
size makes them easily discernible
from great distances. The signal sys-
tenn used was similar to that of the
flag system. Various combinations of
kite groupings were used. While this
system of signaling is not quite so
fast as signaling by means of flags,
it is more definite, it is claimed, and
can be seen for miles around The
success of the experiment has led to
to a recommendation to the French
government that the system be intro
duced generally in the navy of France.

Wisconsin Troops in the March to
the Sea.

In Wisconsin today hundreds of
battle-scarred veterans of the Civil
War are recounting to each other or
to grandchildren upon their knees,
the oft told story Of Sherman s
"march to the sea- 1t was just
half a century ago that . Uncle
Billy" as the soldiers loved to call
their general, set out from Atlanta
on this most picturesque exploit of
the war. With him went 10000
picked men, the strongest and bravest
in his army, and among them Wiscon-
sin counted eleven fine regiments
of infantry and three batteries of
artillery. 1t would be an interest
ing task to trace the record of each
one of these gallant Wisconsin
organizations, but here that is
obviously impossible. Suffice it to
say that they were never missing
where duty or danger pressed, and on
many occasions during and after the
war Sherman proudly recalled their
services.
The march to Savannah was by no
means as difficult or dangerous an
undertaking as has been sometimes
imagined. On the contrary, it was
for the most part great autumn
frolic There was no Southern force
in their path sufficiently large to i'm
pede the progress of Sherman s troop
ers, and the land through which they
passed was the richest granary of
the Confederacy. Sweet potatoes,
chickens, turkeys. and honey were
common items on the soldiers bill of
fare, and bacon and corn meal were
to be had in abundance. 1t was
Sherman's plan to consume or destroy
all the surplus supplies in Georgia,
which had hitherto gone to feed the
Confederate armies fighting about
Richmond, and his soldiers were not
loath to obey such orders.
During the march not more than
sixty three officers and men were
killed, and the Wisconsin regiments
lost barely half a dozen. An in
teresting personal account of the
march by Wisconsin major is
Hinkley's Service with the Third
Wisconsin Infantry, published by the
Wisconsin History Commission.

Not the Rioht Notion.

A very sordid notion prevalent IN
the minds of many, is that the schools
are largely to teach the boy and girl
how to earn money. In my mind, much
more Importance should be placed
upon the proper enjoyment of it than
upon the mere acquisition of wealth
and other worldly goods. We school
teachers should aim to teach the child
to appreciate the finer things in life,
such as right living, beautiful sur
roundings both indoors and out-A. c.

RIVER MEN TO MEET DEC. 9TH
Convention to be Held at WASH
ineton and Will be Most
important.

The recent fight in congress over
the river and harbor appropriation
bill promises to make the next con-
vention of the National Rivers and
Harbors Congress which will meet in
Washington, Dec. 9, 10 and II, the
largest and most interesting that
has ever been held.
''It is interesting to note that the
same men who criticised the army
engineers most severely, indicating
by implication if not by direct charge,
that they are either corrupt or in
efficient, voted to put $50, 900, 900
into the hands of these engineers to
expend just as they please, the only
limitation being that no new projects
are to be undertaken and that the
money allotted to the Mississippi
river shall be expended in accordance
with the plans of the Mississippi
river commission.
Attention is called in the letter to
the fact that the Mississippi river
appropriation carried in the bill totals
So, 254, 900, of which $500, 900 is
for the Mississippi from the Missouri
river to Minneapolis; $780, 900 to be
expended between St. Paul and Min
neapolis, $4,000 from Brainerd to
Grand Rapids, $3.50, 900 on the
stretch from the Ohio to the Mis-
souri,, $3OO,OOO on the Southwest
pass and So, $50, 900 from the head
of the passes to the Ohio river.

The Skins Resistance.

Professor Won Pfungen has been en-
gagged with experiments in his labora-
tory at Vienna upon the resistance
which the human skin affords to the
electric current. He operates by pass
ing the current through the body from
one hand to the other and measuring
the amount by sensitive galvanom-
eter.
His researches bear upon the rela-
ton OF the state of the nervous sys-
tenn to the electric resistance of the
skin, and he claims that nervous ex-
element of any kind lowers the pro-
tecting power of the skin to quite q
marked extent. -
