Its Discipline That Marks the Differ.
 erence Between Them.
 An army is not an army. but mob. unless every item in 1t can be trusted to do the same thing at the same mo ment at the word of command. So obedience is not virtue in soldier out a necessity, for, unless he learns 1t, he cannot attain to the military vir- tues. It has been proved, for instance. again and again that obedience is the way to courage.
 When it is a habit with men they face danger as they form fours be- cause they are told to, and the habit of obedience is stronger in them than their natural fears. It is. in fact. part of a soldiers technique, and unless he has learned it he is an amateur liable to stage fright.
 There may, of course, be an irration al discipline which destroys a soldiers intelligence, as irrational technique de- stroys intelligence in any craft. But the fact remains that soldiers have to learn obedience by means of training specially designed to teach them obedi ence, just as a musician has to prac' .ice scales. When he has learned It he can exercise his intelligence far bet ter than if he had not learned it be, cause he is braver and cooler for hay ing learned it-London Times.

JOslin Believes Copper River Rail- road Possesses Many Advan-
 tages Over Seward Route.

SEATTLE, Nov. S.-Falcon Joslin, President of the Panama Valley rail- road, is in Seattle en route to Wash ington where he will join the Alas kan contingent in urging congress to make larger appropriations for the railroad construction work in Alaska
 MT. Joslin will urge an emergency appropriation and declares that the present rate of construction will re- quire ten years for the railroad to reach Fairbanks when it ought to be completed and in operation in two more years. He also believes the government ought to encourage set tiers going to Alaska, and says the population of the Panama Valley will double in one year if railroad con- struction is started from the interior toward the coast, as urged by Com missioner Riggs.
 The Alaska railroad man has just completed trip which Included the Tolovana camp, the Copper river val ley, Katalla coal fields, Seward and Anchorage, and unhesitatingly de- clares that the government made a great mistake in not purchasing the Copper River railroad. He believes the ice of Cook Inlet will cause An chorage to be closed for several months each year to navigation and declares that competent engineers have assured him that the grades on the Seward road will prohibit exten- sive tonnage of coal being hauled to that terminal.

\ FAMOUS BATTLE.
The Ono Described In History as the
 "Vietory of Victories"

The Ono Described In History as the
 "Vietory of Victories!'
 The battle which is known in his- tory as the Victory of Victories" took place at Nehavend. in Ecbatana, and was fought between the new Moslem power in e37 and the empire of Persia, then one of the most powerful of the eastern monarchies. It was one Of the most absolutely decisive battles in the history of war, and 1t was all the more amazing by reason of the fact that 1t was won by people who twenty years before had been unknown barbarians. lost in the deserts of Arabia.
 Arabian historians place the Persian loss in a single day at 100000 men killed. This may be and probably Is an exaggeration, but the fact remains that the Persian dynasty came to an end when the battle was over and that Zoroastrianism. which had been the re- ligion of Persia for over thousand years. was at once supplanted by Is- lam. Its modern representatives, as Is well known, are now the Parsees of India.
 The victory was so absolutely deci- sive that 1t extended the Arabian do- minions over the whole of the region tying between the Caspian sea and the Indian ocean. With the exception per haps of the battle of Tours, no single fight ever made such difference in the after history of the world.-Ex- change

Reau,atina Bread Prices.

A simple plan for the regulation of bread prices was in vogue in England from the time of Henry III. to the be ginning of the nineteenth century. The "assize of bread'' was set every week by the authorities of every borough and manor. when the price of the loaf was regulated by the ruling price of wheat, the margin of reasonable prof, being left to the baker and miller. De parture from the official price was heavily punished.-London Mirror.
