There is also great activity in all the

European conflict is showing to have
great usefulness In certain cases. Sew

Navy men just now are interested
In the plans for the war game at New
York. This game Will serve. to show,
the American people what their feet
can do and at the same time serve as
q sdrill. The plan contemplates a
massed attack upon the port by .
score or more of dreadnaughts and bat
tleships, representing hostile force,
and q defense of the harbor by the
coast artillery corps of the army, by
submarines and destroyers, and per-
haps by the battleships in reserve.
manned for the occasion by the naval
militia. Aeroplanes, ,hydro-aeroplanes,
dummy mines and other apparatus of
modern war would be utilized. The
fliers would practice detecting SUBJ
merged undersea boats, and would
throw dummy bombs.
There would be some additional ex-
pense connected with this game. 1t
would cost something to commission
the reserve feet and man 1t with the
naval militia. but the present scarcity
Of personnel for the navy makes this
only slight drawback and one over
balanced by the advantages offered.
About .one hundred and twenty-five
vessels would take part In the game.
At least twenty submarines would be
detailed, besides six to eight divisions
of destroyers. y N
This war game, II 1t takes place,
will create popular interest in the navy
and should bring many visitors to New

It wasn't long before the Oulad-Se-
ghir Arabs made US busy as we want
ed to be.
We had a goodly supply of wine
Christmas day. got four or five liters
myself, and when went to sleep l
wanted to sleep long time. But
didn't get a chance, because In the
middle Of the night the sergeant, who
was a poor man at drink, came and
We had no sooner opened our eyes
than we heard the bugler on the roof
cracking his lungs with the "rouse,"
the alarm" and the "regimental
call" 7''p' @~- ."
We bounded up to the roof with our
rifles in our hands, but no trousers on
our legs, and lined up at the ready"
Good" said the; sergeant. Il was
afraid that you were all too drunk. I
came up here to smoke pipe and
found the sentry had gone to bed
with the rest of you. It would have
been bad job for us II hadn't want
ed that pipe. Look there!" and he
pointed to the borders of the. oasis
where we saw moving figures and
plenty of them. = 81 had the alarm
sounded just to remind those monkeys
that they can't catch the Legion
asleep, and the regimental call was
blown on the of chance that it would
be heard in Ras-elChel, telling the
company that there Is business go
Ing on here" ~,
It was nearly seven o'clock before
they came. 1t was good that they
didn't start earlier, for there were sew
eral hundreds Of them with modern
rifles. They climbed up into the palm
trees and shot down at us. but that
gave us a better chance at them for
we couldn't. miss birds Of that size.
Every shot we fired brought one down.
+ y Our bugler was the! first to lose his
number. He was shot through the
head, and he stood in the angle Of
the parapet and remained standing
as If he were effective. al. W -
That gave US an idea, and as each
man fell afterwards we propped him
up with a bayonet behind and stood

sergeant went out we stuck his pipe
in his mouth and he looked regular
lifelike, only more determined. Soon
there was row Of dead men guard
ing the blockhouse, and they looked
so calm and confident that the Oulad-
seghir evidently thought it would be
too risky to come to close quarters
with us. They gave up the fight in
disgust, SO when our company came
to our, rescue at the double there was
nothing for them to do. 49,
Brave fellows, you have saved the
post" said our captain. as he en-
braced the corporal and myself. the
only two left standing. But the
worthy man was mistaken. It wasn't
us that saved the post. It was those
Others that he didn't embrace.
The company marched past that line
Of dead defenders and saluted them.
