The White Mouse
pY NlRGINIA VII.

Once upon a time steve was
given pair OF white mice in a
nice brass cage. He grew very
fond and took good care of them,
but. in spite OF all this. one OF them
grew very discontented and de-
cided to run away IL it found the
chance. It tried to get the other
one to go too. but il would not.
The next day, finding that
Steve had not quite fastened the
door of the cage. the naughty
mouse said, goodbye, ana slipped

ships engaged in it probably over
100-hut It can not he compared
to Nelson's chase OF Nilleueuve's
fleet across the Atlantic and back
again. And. however startling the
results of the battle itself may
seem. il must be remembered that
these were not the main fleets
that were engaged, as was the case
in 1905. The bulk aud strength OF
both the British and the German
nayies are still safely bottled up
within their own waters awaiting
the great naval climax that may
yet come But while the world
waits impatiently for the detailed
story. withheld by the Britain Ad-
miralty. of the battle off tine FalE-
lands, it is worth recalling the
great naval actions that have pre-
coded it, says Springfield (Mass.)
Republican,.
For this latest battle can rank
with the notable sea actions of see
ondary Importance, after all, and It
ranks as vet second to only one
other as a struggle between mod
ern armored warships armed with
hieh-power rifled cannon. OF the
really great sea fights, among which
this battle can hardly be included,
earliest in history comes the bat
tie of Salamis during the Greco-Per-
sian wars. There is nothing that
can class with Trafalgar of Napo-
leonic period, greatest sea fight of
all times. And finally we have the
battle of Sushima in the Russo-Japa-
nese war. In other great wars OF
history we find the navies taking a
comparatively minor part, The old
/ Roman galleys ranged the seas, but
! the mastery of Rome was so complete
| that no Nation dared question its
supremacy, and when the end did
| come it came by land and from a
| people who knew nothing of navies
| The religious wars of medieval and
early modern times had few If any
naval features, and the destruction
| OF the famous Spanish armada may
| be considered more in the light of 6
disaster from the forces of nature
| than battle. Likewise, the wars OF
| more recent years have known nc
sea fights of the first order, with the
exception of Trafalgar and Sushima

Possibly most important, and
certainly most dramatic, among the
recent developments Of the war is
the naval battle fought OF the
Falkland Islands in the South At

Leipzig ana perhaps Of The Dresden

A, V. King, who was here from
Fort Worth this morning, says the
"Jituey car" service is spreading
throughout that city until it is max
ing great iuroads into the receipts
of the street car companies, lie
says there are fully $50 cars now in
actual service and that more cars are
being pressed into service every daE.
one company, according TO Mr.. King,
already has thirty cars in service that
make certain rounds with a pretty
good schedule, and representative
has gone east to determine If better
ears cannot be had for the service.
Mr., King thinks the "jitney car is
destined to serve useful purpose IN
smaller towns where street car sys-
tens will not pay operating expenses
He says a reasonable service can he
given at minimum expense and
that the jitney cars can be made to
pay where a street car system would
eventually mean bankruptcy. While
he believes the system is going to
