What 1t Costs to Kill One
Man in Modern Warfare

The cost OF killing n man is OBJ
tanned by dividing the total cost OF a
war to any OF the belligerents by the
number Of men killed on the other
side.
In 1S70-1S71 France spent $500, 0,000,- :
600 In the actual expenses OF the war.
Repairing materials and giving succor
TO the victims OF the war. expenses
that are Justly to be added, cost an
other s200.000.000. France paid ST.
600. 100000 as war indemnity. plus an
other 100000 900 in interest on the
sum. loss OF revenue. forced contribu-
tions by the enemy and upkeep OF the
German army OF occupation. This
third category OF expenses, not being
, inevitable in all wars, cannot properly
be included.
On n similar basis here are some
facts about other wars:
Russo Turkish war (1s77-1s7s)-
Turkey. si00,000.000
Russo-Japanese war t19O5)-Russia.
81. 200. 100000.
The number OF men killed or who
died of wounds in these wars were:
Franco-Prussian war-Germans, 2s.-
600.
Russo-Turkish war-Russians. 49,.
600.
Russo-Japanese war-Japanese, S..
coo.
Whence It results that the cost Of
killing each man was ms follows:
, In 1S70.lS7l. s21 900.
In iS77-is7s. $4,000.
In 1905. $4,000.
What will kill the greatest number

FIRST STORY OF TRIuMPHAL ENTRY
OF GERMANS INTO BRUSSELS

along bear, evidently he pet OF his
battery. which was dressed in the full
regalia Of Belgian general. The bear
was evidently intended to represent
the king. He touched his cooked hat
at inervals to his keeper.
This particularly irritated the Bel
CLANS. but they wisely abstained from
any overt manifestation or any un.
pleasant feature of behavior.
The soldiers as they passed tore re.
peatedly at the national colors, which
every Belgian lady now wears on her
breast.

A more pleasant incident was when

They disposed Of dozen bottles of
wine and bread and meat. The nom
commissioned officer in command
asked what the charge was and offered
some gold pieces in payment, The
money was refused.
Near the steps of st. Gudule party
of officers Of high rank seated in a
motor car, confiscated the stock OF
the news venders. After greedily
scanning the sheets they burst into
loud laughter.
March Forward for Hours.
Hour after hour. hour after hour,
the kaiser's legions marched into
Brussels streets and boulevards.
Some regiments made fine appear
ance. 1t was notably SO in the case
Of the Sixty-sixth. Fourth and Twenty
sixth. Not one man Of these regi-
ments showed any sign Of excessive
fatigue after the grueling night of
marching, and no doubt the order to
break step was designedly given to
impress the onlookers with the pow
ers Of resistance of the German sol
diers.
The railway stations. the post office.
and the town hall were at once closed.
The national flag on the latter was
pulled down and the German emblem
hoisted in its place. Practically all
the shops were closed and the blinds
drawn on most of the windows.

His Election as Pope.
II was no light inheritance to sue

in many ways Leo symbolized the old

diplomat.

both in attack and defense than the
Braves possess.
But listen: Murphy, OldTing and
Strunk are the Athletics outfeId,
with Walsh to heIp~out and some
youngsters. You can Safely figure
that Murphy Oldring and Strunk will
play unless one breaks something.
We know their values absolutely in
batting, fielding, baseTunning and
throwing. Boston does not possess
three men as good. Admit that, for
it is true.
BUt-BOstOn has six men who play
Outfeld. Take DeyOre for instance.
He pulls a lot of bones, he runs well,
he throws well, but at times with
poor judgment, he hits certain kinds
of pitching hard and goes to first
with much speed.
Take Gather. He is rather Unfin-
ished.. Against some pitching he is
dead. Against others he is a whale.
He is a corking dangerous pinch hit
ter and he can throw.
The strength then of center field
is the best of Mann, Moran, Whitfield
or DevoTe- depending upon condi-
lions, and who is pitching for the 9TH
er side. Pick the strongest points of
each of eight Boston OUtfelders and
compare their best with the steady
jObbeTs of the Athletics.
The strength of BOstOn's Outfeld
then is their defensive strength of the
three chosen for that day by Stallings
and the strongest batting and run
ming trio against a certain style of
pitching.
Connolly, of course, is the leading
hitter of the Braves about 80,
which average is a boost above his
normal, because StaIlings sent him
to play against the kind of pitching
he likes. The outfieId average of hit
ting is close to .26O. The outfeld

the men and their habits. It is hard
to figure on three more different
pitchers than Tyler, James and Ru-
dolph; yet, in calculating the worth
of the outfelders we are figuring for
this series only and must value man
not on what he does in regular sea-
son, but on, what he is likely to do
against the kind of pitching he will
face.
In this. case we. have.to study what

fighting, and for his baserunning.
Connolly is, unfinished, but a slash
ing hitter. Moran is one Of the most
timely batteTs in the country, a fell
low at his best in pinch and likely
to break up a game with long drive
at any time.
Gather is a much improved ball
player this season under StaIlings.

Yesterday morning at about IL
o'clock a deplorable accident occurred
in the railroad yards to sgd Jay, a
Rio Grande Southern brakeman. The
southbound freight had made up and
was leaving at rapid speed. Mr..
Jay ment to swing onto the tank step
of the rear engine and having brake
stick in his hand missed the hand
hold and fell with his left hand across
the rail. One of the wheels of the
tank passed over the hand, lacerating
and mashing the thumb and first two
fingers. He was Immediately taken
to the home of his sister, Mrs. Eta
Kennedy, and a physician dressed his
wounds so that this morning he could
go on to the Rio Grande hospital in
Salida, where it will be necessary to
amputate two fingers and possibly the
thumb, though there are hopes of
saving the entire thumb.-Cortez
