Concerning Deaths In Wars.
Deaths from all causes during tho
8pan!sh war were C.100. or 2V4 per cent of
the total strength of 275,000 men, ngalnst
6.8 per cent of deathn In the army during
the first year of the civil war. It must
be remembered, however, that but a comparative
handful of the total In the recent
Spanish war wore engaged in actual
fiKhtlnr. or. Indeed, were out of this country.
"let. despite this- fact and the Improvement
In methods over thirty years
aKO. the number who died of disease and
neglect and embalmed beef In peace camps
on our own soil were ten timc3 as- many
n* wore killed fn battle or died of
wounds.?Kegistor.
It is not unusual In wars that much
greater losses occur Jn the camps from
disease than occur in battle, or from
wounds received in battle. The statistics
of wars show this to be true. It is
not strange that, under our system of
maintaining a small army, the percentage
of deaths from and cases of disease
in camp3 were very large, not only in
the beginning of the late Spanish-American
war but in the civil war of 13Cl-'65.
The United States has maintained from
the beginning a very small standing
army, and, In case of war, volunteers
have always formed the great forces
necessary for defense. These volunteers
were made up largely of young
nvr? who were without any training
whatever in army life and the requirements
of a campaign, and were suddenly
summoned from home life.
Those who have boon members of the
National Guard in this country are
drilled In tactics, and have had their
few days each year in camp, surrounded
by all the comforts that the state
provides, and none of the discomforts of
the crowded camps of thousands of
troops, with all the dangers of bad sanitary
conditions that are so hard to
combat before the men are, disciplined
and made to realize that the camp of
rmv illvlalnn wlilxt,
many weeks while the men are being
trained for actual service, is not the
summer camp of a militia regiment or a
brigade for a week or ten days, from
which the men are returned to their
homes bright and fresh from their outing.
In other countries, where large standing
armies are maintained, an emergency
is always met with a well equipped
force of trained and disciplined
men, ready at a moment's call, and the
volunteers and reserves are not takon
from the shops and stores and the
clerks desks, unseasoned, undisciplined,
and without due appreciation of the
rules that govern camp life and the necessity
of strict observance of sanitary
rules, and hurried to the front. The
point is well Illustrated by the statistics
of many wars, which show that the
peace camps of the volunteers until tho
mon fresh from private life are seasoned
and thoroughly disciplined, furnish
many times more cases of sick
ness and death rroin disease than the
camps of the regulars who have been
in the service for years. It has been
true here as in Europe.
During the entire civil war, the number
of troops killed in brittle on the
Union side in four years was. 67,658;
those who died from wounds numbered
4S.012, while the number dying from disease
In camp amounted to a total of
199,720, nearly double the number dying
from "actual fighting," ns the Register
calls it. The number dying from disease
in southern prisons aggregated
30.000, and from accidents, &c., 10,000.
The percentage of deaths during the
first year of the civil war, was nearly
three tlm#s greater than the number In
the entire Spanish-American war, and
the percentage that died of disease in
carr.ps was a great deal larger.
Thorn in no point to bo. made In making
unjust comparisons. Tho statistics
of ail wars that have come suddenly,
and where tho vast majority of men are
fresh recruits taken from civil life, untrained
and unused to the hardships of
enmp life and the health requirements
will demonstrate; that the mortality of
camps is greater than that of the battle-field.
Iifttcfit. New York Sensation.
The murder of Hanker Masterton, of
Tiew York, in an apartment house, by
James Jfenle Plumb, was one of the
moat remarkable tragedies of the day,
in Its surrounding circumstances. The
man killtd was seventy-two years old
and his slayer sixty-five, and tho notable
feature of the case was that the
trngedy was the result of an enmity
which began forty years ngo over a love
affair; that In tho meantime the men
were In constant litigation; that the
murder was deliberately planned, as
shown by lengthy typewritten statements
of the history that led up to the
crime, and giving the reasons "why J.
NV.'ilo Plumb shot Alexander blasterton,"
which manuscript ho gave to the
newspapers after ho had sent for a
policeman and had hiinru-lf arrested.
In these resperts the case Is remarkable,
and It In not surprising that the pollr"
entertain tho theory of Innanlty.
.While tho type-written statements con
r
tain a mass of information concern!]
personal grievances and charg
against the murdered banker, large
with a domestic and business bearln
clrcumstantlallly related, he makes t!
further statement that he regard)
himself "as the chosen Instrument
the Divine Being to wreak wrathf
vengeance upon a man who was not':
to live." Upon this portion of the pr
pared statement the theory of Insanl
Is based.
The prominence of the actors In tl
tragedy, the peculiar circumstances
the case, and the remarkable condu
of the slayer will make the occurren
and the trial that will follow one of ui
usual Interest. It Is one of those sei
satlons that frequently occur In tl
metropolis with Just enough of the dr;
niatlc flavor In them to attract the a
tentlon of the country.
An Untrut hful Or^nn.
Our friend, the Register, In maklr
some very exaggerated statements, Ii
tended to convey the Impression th
the administration's supporters a
charging such men as Senator Hoa
Andrew Carnegie and other able men
this country who oppose any proftos
tlon for the permanent retention of 'tl
Philippines, with treason, makes th
untruthful statement:
"Already the postofflco department hi

The last unjustifiable lling, exhlbltir

first sentence is a deliberate falsehoo

well pleased couid our troops read tl

I It is not the Congressional Recoi
that has been "stopped from going i

l ing Bpeeches delivered upon but 01
I side of the question, garbled from tl

A Matter of Encouragement.
HI It was a balmy day in the springtime,
[11 with the buds bursting into bloom and
n the blue birds bursting into song, as I
ie rode down ofC of a spur of the Camberly
land mountains and stopped at the gate
al of a hewed log farmhouse, much better
,-s than its congeners of the mountains. A
,n good looking woman was hendlng over a
xt dazzling bed of flowers in the front yard
e. and to her I addressed myself, says a
do writer In the Washington Star.
ie "Good morning," I said. "Will you be
1. kind enough to tell me how far it is to
Hill's store?"
"Two miles er slch a matter." she replied,
as she moved down toward the
to gnte and me.
j. "Is it a straight road?"
"No, it ain't. It's crookeder ner a
le dog's hind laig, but you can't git offen
ie it .unless you foller some pig path er
10 other."
. I thanked her and was about to pass
on, when she stopped me.
a- "Air you goin' right thar from here?"
she asked.
j_ "I am If I can get there."
"Wel, mebbe 'taint list perllte to ax a
stranger, but I'd be powerful obleeged
se to you ef you'd do an errant fer me
,v down thar."
"I'm sure I'll be only too glad to serve
ni a lady," I responded, with my best
ie equestrian bow.
"Hold on a minute," she said, and
went into the house to return very
LO shortly.
re "Here's a bundle I wlsht you'd give
ie to the storekeeper," she said, handing
e> me what seemed to be a roll of drygoods
of some sort.
u* \ was too polite to ask her any ques'?
Hons, but I must have looked one, for
It she proceeded to explain.
"YOu see," she went on, "I told him
t'other dny when 1 was down that when
a his new goods come he wuz to send me
?i pattern uv sonvthln' I like, and he
sent me that. It's black poods, for I'm

ln "Oh." I laughed, "you want to encourage

l" Louisville Courier-Journal (Dem.): In
the face of death, Hose confessed that
he killed Cranford, but Mid he was
Irlred to do It by a negro preacher, TCIIlK
Jah Strickland by name. At the same ,
1' time he denied the other crime attribu- 1
ted to him. Now, It Is Just as certain
"1 that he committed an assault upon Mrs.
n Cranford ns that he killed her husband.
?, He was, thereforo, plainly a liar. Yet
' the mob went off and hanged Strickland,
agaliist the protest of the best clt- 1

a except Hint given by Hose. If Strlckn
Innd was guilty at nil was guilty
only of procuring th?? murder of Cranford.
Yet with singularly bad Ionic the
i- placard, "We miifit protect our sonthi\

on the body of Hose, but Strickland
