WHEN CALAIS WAS ENGLISH.
II Was Held by That Country From
1341 Until 1858.

Kansas City Journal: In happier
times Calais was the continental term
mus OF the main travelled road between
England and France. Today il is the
British military base in France. This
serves To recall that for more than, two
centuries Calais was held by the Eng
lish their occupation of the town be-
ginning August 3. lS47, and continuing
until 1858.
Calais fell into the hands of the Eng
lish during the hundred years war,
when England and France were en-
gagged in a struggle which continued
for more than century. Edward III.
as grandson of Philip the Fair claimed
the French crown and sought to gain
Il by force of arms. The Flemings rec
ognized Edward as their king, and in
the long struggle which followed were
of great assistance 20 the English.
1t was not until 1888 that the French
army. led by the duke of Guise. drove
the English out. Queen Mary, who
then ruled England. was deeply grieved
at the loss of Calais. and when she
died a few months later her last words
were: When ! am dead Calais win
be found written on my heart"
This did not end the troubles Of
Calais. for forty years after its re-
covery il was taken by the Spaniards.
The spanish reign was brief. however.
ending in 1888.

PIGMY PEOPLE OF MARNELEs.
Last Remnants of Mysterious Race

World Wide Magazine: High up on
the slopes OF Mount Mariveles in the
Philippine Islands dwell the last rem

rious race--the negritos, or little ne
groes." Scientists diner hopelessly as
to their origin and history. hut the
traveller who is fortunate enough to
penetrate into their carefully hidden
villages finds the quaint little people
extremely interesting. Though disin-
clined 10 work. the negrito is indefa-

mango, or banana. that he may seize

HORSES IN ANCIENT WARS.
West German Tribes Used Ponies When
Caesar Invaded Gaul.

st Louis Giohe-Democrat: In the old
days when the Romans and frec X
fought furious battles, the char!0tecrs
drove their cars in all directions. Ldrled
their javelins, and by the din ;'nd Cat
ter of horses and wheels commonly
threw the ranks Of the enemy into lis.
order and, making their way anon; The
sqpadrons of the enemy's cavalry, lcan.
Cd down from the chariots and fous silt
on foot The eharioteers then withdrew,
little by little. out of the fight, nj
placed their chariots in such way
that if they were hard pressed they
could readily retreat to their own side.
Thus in battle they afforded the i.'O-
bility of cavalry with the steadiness Of
infantry. Daily practice enabled them
to pull up their horses at fun speed
when on steep slope. or to run out
on the pole and stand on the yoke, and
to get nimbly back into the chariot.
With the introduction Of cavalry in
the later Iron Age come larger horses,
but their use for this purpose seems
to have been restricted To isolated areas.
There IS no doubf that the West Ger.
man tribes. as late as the campaign u
Caesar in Caul. used only the shaggy
pony. II is said in cavalry actions they
