General Miles Interviewed.
llrief as was the Oeneral's stop,
It was Jons cnouRh for an Enterprise
reporter to find him and engage him
In a fifteen minutes conversation.
This was last nfslit, while the special
was laid out for a quart or of an hour
waiting for the passenger from Hous
ton to Xew Orleans. lirielly, this is
what General Miles said:
"The war in the Far East is teach
ing the nations and armies of the
world much regarding practical,
modern campaigning. Both sides dis
play wonderful generalship."
"The opportunities for Democrat
victory in the coming presidential
election have not heAi as good for
many years."
"hi no scot ion of the world has
there ever been such rapid industrial
development and increased valuation
as in the rice belt of Louisiana and
Texas."
"Kice as a food for military pur
poses, especially 101 armies in uwc
of war, is highly practical and should
and will receive mora consideration
la the tiuiire.
Sketch of the General.
In annearancc. tho General Miles
who lounged against the guard rail
of th observation ear in last eve
ning's dusk was not the General Miles
Been in the lobbies of the fashionable
hotels or at the official gatherings oi
functionaries at. Washington. Last
night General Miles was dressed for
what be was doing touring tho conn,
trv in a railroad coach. In Wnshing-
lim tin W.'IH !lls() ih-essed for what ho
ion no was aiao uiui.-u w' u
wivs doing commanding the armies
of the United States, in epaulettes,
mold cord, aigrettes, brass buttons
and waving plumes.
In Viis:Ii i tl ll t ill flenernl Miles, even
in plain frock and top hat, strolling )i(
down I'i'iiiisylvania avenue, attracts
:il lent ion because of the dignity of
his bearing, the squareness of his
Kliouldeis. the erect ness of his car
riage, the polM! of his head and the
lierfect curl of moustaclie. Last
night, had he left his car and "auntor-
v-d i.. and down the utK-vcn plalorm
flu. Kmit i.M-n I'arinc ( eniii. no
nniil.t li:iv.. lu'i'ii nassed by without
a sercuid look. Xo one would have
.suspected who he was mid if one gave
him it thought It would have been to
class him : as an ordinary, ev
ery day -.riiisienl a business man
from a small tow.i returning to his
home after a visit to the fair, tired
and dusty.
Personality the Same.
This v ns spoken in Ms appearance
Hut could 'he stranger have seen tho

one have heard his, voice which still

The people may not realize it, but it

eral Miles, "or llio nm'Hlion of food
for soldiers, especially soldier In the

held, engaged la actual wariure. mm
lit a subject that has perplexed many
liien. It Is necessary to get tho great
est amount, of nutrition Into the
omniwt ivissiiiin hulk. The adullora-
it,,M ..f i.i..iinrn il funds has become so i
great that armies cannot longer safely
rely on thorn In time ot war, or any
..Dm,, time for that matter. Tho
soldier must have wholesome, tissue-
building food. I think rice is mat
1'iw.il In mv nninlon it should and
will be more seriously considered in
I he future as a fighting soldier's food.
rtc.j is the food we have
sought for military purposes so long.
This argument is norno out u ui
demonstration now being made in the
ri. l.-.wt where .Tanan's soldiers arc
sibsisting and lighting, almost wholly
on rice. Tilts, remeniuer too, is uim
of the largest armies actually engaged
in one campaign that was ever assem
bled in any country.
The Russian-Japanese War.
'Regarding the war in the East,"
said General Miles, who, in his dis
cussion of this subject, carefully
avoided comparisons of any character,

able leaders, are using the very latest
ideas and tactics in xheir battle for

Asl,e,i rezardinir the political situa

Object of Trip.
General Miles is traveling on a
special
train containing nfty-hve
bankers, capitalists and financiers of
Wisconsin. Minnesota. 1111-
,
Tho party Is in charge
u" "
of Mr. U. 15. Hard, a man well Known
in ltcaunio.it and who has been inter
,.ut...i t,,f ui.vei:il veara in the develop-
mcnl of the Texas and Umisian rice
fields. He has brought similar excur
sions into this section before, although
none were as lan;o as the one which
passed through Iicaiinmnt yesterday.
The object in bringing the gentle
men South is to interest I hem in rice
lands in this section. From Orange
veslerdav the gentlemen were taken
'by boat ilown the Stbine river to Cow
Bavou and up the bayou io ibe plant
and fields of the Cow Hayou final
Company. After inspecting the fields
the gentlemen wore taken back to
Orange, and from Orange went to
Houston last rmht. From Houston
;hc- will go r-h over th Santa Fe
to their homes. General Miles visited
the rice i. Ids lure a I ' .it one year
a-o but at that time nia'Io no invest
ments. He lias rciind from the
arr.iy now. howvi r, and is under
stood to be looking for an uwirt uni

TAKE 8TURGES' INTERE6T.
Low DirJjje Club Plan a Complcli
Outfit for Cruising on Ncchei and
Sablno Rivera and the Lake.
The bnir Intoretit of Mr, Walter M.
Hliirges, who litis removed to New
York City. In Iho "Mattlf Wynne,"
the new pleasure launch luillt by .Mr.
St urge and Mr. C. U-wl Wilson,
hits been litircbased by Messrs. I'd
I'ltv lilson, Frank Goil. ey, J. W. Jones
and Jean ripkin and Or. V. T. Wll
llaiiiH. These goiil lemon. w 1 1 h .Mr.
Wilson, will keep the boat iu cointuls
tion practically the year around and
will use it for their own pleasure, In
cruising on the Neclies and Salilne
rivers and Sabine Lake.
The gentlemen who ha.c purchased
the ball inleiest In Hie Mattle Wynne,
logelher with Mr. Wilson. Iho owner
of tlu other hair, yesterday Hosed n
ileal for the purchase of a limine
boat, which the gentlemen and thdi
ladies will use Iu connection with Ibe
launch. The young people are va
riously known as tho "Ixiw Hrldge"
Hub, the "Hogan's Alley Hrlgado" nnd
other lilies of a humorous character,
symbolizing the good fellowship which
prevails among them.
It has been decided to name tho
house boat. "Hogan's Alley." It will
lie moored regularly at the loot of
Mulberry street, but will be to-veii
up nnd -down the river, as occasion
demands. Experiment lifts shown
that a speed of five miles an hour
can lie made by the Mattle Wynne
with the house boat in tow. This
will make it possible for the party lo
go down to the lake, remain all dav
and return in the evening .and still
have plenty of tlmo for fishing and
bathing at the other end of the jour
ney. The house boat is a largo and pre
tentious affair, and will accommodate
ns many people as tlie'Hub will ever
wish to take on a pleasure trip. The
house itself is 12 1-2 by IS 1'"'.
is fli t oil with a main snlnnn. or loung
ing and eating room, of HI by 12, a
pantrv anil kitchen, and three state
rooms. Tho length of tho boat over
all is :',4 foot, and the beam is IS feet,
giving a largo space on deck nnd a
broad passage way on each side ".!'
the building. TJio roof of Iho house
is also fitted up for use as a hurricane
deck.
Tho apartments on Crockett, street
occupied by a number of the bach
elors now interested in the Mattle
Wynne were formerly known a "Ho
gnn's Alley." As the house boat has
been given the same name there are
now two Hogan's Alleys. As this
may load to confusion, it is probable
Iho apartments will bo designated as
Hogan's Aley No. 1 n".d the lioits-3
boat as Hogan's Alloy No. 2.

ter and report on the subject to Iho
