" THE DEFENSES oi: CANADA.
An Army Officer Secretly Detailed to
Study Them. '
The War Department is aboutto make
a third attempt to learn something of
the topographical and geographical sit-
uation in Canada with a view of pre-
paring to meet certain situations which.
may be presented should Great Britain
attempt to invade th‘eUnited States
from the Canadian border. -
If the two countries ever come to war,
Canada will be the mest probable base of
operations for the British troops, and it
is proposed to gather data showing the
exact strategical importance of certain
points in the Dominion which would be
selected by Great Britain as the base of
operations. , ‘ * -
Three months ago the Secretary of
War detailed an' officer to go to Canada
for this purpose, and'he had just began
, to gather valuable information when an
oldi‘Admiral of the navy, whose daugh-
tor he had married, gave’away the fact
that an officer was in Canada on a. Gov-
ernment mission, and the result was
that the officer was recalled for fear that
his identity to the Canadian officialswas
known.
Later, a second detail was made, and
this officer was promptly frustrated _in
his efforts through some friends, who
mentioned the fact that he had been
chosen to study the fortifications and
military strength of Canada.
The War Department has now detail-
eda. third officer, who will shortly be on
his way to Canada, and it is believed
that he will succeed in reaching there
without the intent of his visit being
known.
nito, and no one outside the War De«
partment officials will know the purpose
of his visit. The result of his investi-
gations will be reported to the depart-
ment, and it is expected that full par-
ticulars will be received of the real mil-
itary situation which would be present
ed on the northern frontier should the
United States and Great Britain again
come to blows.
The Explanation of It.
A little J ap was on trial in the police
court for defrauding an innkeeper. He
had testified in his own behalf that he
had paid his room rent for a month.
“How much did you pay?” asked the
prosecuting attorney.
The little J ap sat and stared at his
questioner.
The query was repeated.
“Quarter of ’leven.” .. ,
Everybody glanced at the clock and
observed that the time was correctly
given.
“Yes, it’s a quarter to eleven, but I
want to know how much room rent you
paid.”
“Quarter of ’leven," repeated the J ap.
“You don’t understand. How much
money did you pay?”
“I tell you, quarter of ’leven.”
The question was repeated in various
forms, but that was the only answer the
Jap would give, and he grew more ve-
hement with every repetition.
He was locked in a padded cell in the
Receiving Hospital and examined be-
fore the Commissioners of Insanity,
when it was learned that he paid $10.75
for his room—San Francisco Post.
An Old Soldier's Experience.
Speaking of grewsome things, an old
soldier told me yesterday of the most
affecting parting he ever had in his life.
It was parting with himself, or rather a
part of himself. He was in an engage-
ment before Petersburg, and had the
misfortune to come in contact with a
piece of broken shell, which exploded
near him, and which succeeded in shat-
tering .his' leg.
Amputation was necessary, and
shortly afterward he was lying in.his
tent. As he looked up he saw a cart
piled up with legs and arms of others
who had been unfortunate in the en-
gagement, and right on top he recog-
nized his own leg. ,
“It was a sad parting,” he said “to
see a part of you going away never to be
returned again. I can never tell you
what strange feelings came over me,
and to this day I can see that fine black
horse hauling my leg away to its last
resting place.”—-Pittsburg Dispatch.
Improvement in Field Cannon.
The improvement in field cannon has
kept pace with that in small arms. It
is doubtful whether troops can be held
in column or mass formation within
two miles of an enemy firing the present
modern breech-loading field guns. The
extreme range of these 3.2 and 3.6-inch-
caliber field guns is over five miles,
and when a suitable smokeless powder
is found they may throw a projectile
eight miles. Had McClellan had these
guns when his lines were five miles
from Richmond, he could have ruined
the city. No troops can live in front of
them when they are rapidly discharg-
ing schrapnel, two hundred bullets to
the case; and they can defend them-
selves without infantry support, and can
be captured only by surprise, or when
their ammunition is exhausted—Gen.
Fitzhugh Lee.

Vice Admiral Lord Collingwood is de-
soribedby his _ biographer as a man of‘
simple firmness and justice. He was
said to be the finest disciplarian in the
navy. ‘
“I know your character, well,” he said '
to a dangerous mutineer, who they sent
to him to be tamed. “If you behave
Well in the future I will treat you like .
the rest, nor notice here what happened
inanother ship; but if you endeavor to
excite munity. mark me, well, I will in-
stantly head you up in a cask and throw
you into the sea.” He had uo trouble
with that man.
He paid particular attention to his
midshipmen, considering it a point of
honor with himself that not one should
leave him pnfit to pass for promotion.
Yet it was his infiex rule to uphold the
authority of every oficer, whatever his
rank, with the same severity as his own.
If a. midshipman made complaints
against a man, that man was unfailing-
ly ordered for punishment the next
day, but meanwhile Collingwood took
the lad aside and suggested to him the
propriety of asking grace for the cul-
prit when he should be brought
out. .
“In all probability the fault was
yours,” he would say, "but whether it
was or not, I am sure it would go to
your heart to see a man old enough to
be your father disgraced and punished on
your account.” - .
So the midshipman in'terceded, the
Cartain with some show of reluctance,
pardoned, and discipline was upheld. On
the other hand he would not even per-
mit his officers to address a. man as
“You, sir,”on the ground that it was
unnecessarily discourteous and con-
temptuous.
_“If you don’t know a man’s name,”
he said, rather implying that an officer
ought to know his men by name, “call
him ‘sailor.’ ”—Youth’s Companion.
WHAT IS A CLASSIC.
' The Only Test is the Common Consent of
Humanity.
The aristocracy of books includes no
volume lacking the vitality of good
breeding. A book, therefore, before it
becomes a classic. must be selected by
the common consent of critics, it must
have distinction, purity and artistic vi-
tality.
There can be no question in this case
if we agree that time and the consensus
of critics throughout a long period shall
‘make' up the judgment. This century
settles the claims of last century’s claim-
ants. Always bear in mind, however,
that the forum in which the case must
inevitably be tried is that wherein the
governing law is not mere contempoary
taste. The classic is the immutable, the
ancient, the eternal. And yet the pres-
ent moment begins an eternity. A clas— -
sic of the long future may fall apparent-
ly dead born from the press of to-day;
we may be too near sighted to make out
its credentials.
The classic, then, is a work proven by
time, distinguished by superiority and
having the imperious poWer of original
authority, soundness and purity of sub-
stance, which constitute a. model of ex-
cellence in conception and workman-
ship, not merely for one day or period,
but for all time. —Chautauquan.
A Good One at Last.
“You know, boys, little people have
sharp ears, and they are not at all back-
ward about telling any little scraps of
information they pick up. This pecul-
iarity has led a. good many parents to
resort to spelling words when their
young children are present. Of course
that sdrt of thing is of no avail after the
youngsters learn to spell. Well, Mrs.
McBride and I are in the spelling stage
now, and little Freddie is often very
much mystified by our remarks to each
other.
“Last night we had our new minister
to dinner, and Freddie watched the good
man helping himself very liberally to
biscuits. He thought it a good oppor-
tunity to put into use the family verbal
cipher, feeling perfectly certain that the
minister would find it unintelligi-
ble. So he called out:

The Alternative Was Cheaper. .
A middle-aged man of tall and slen-
der build and earnest cast of counten-
ance stepped into a hatter’s shop on
Jackson street yesterday morning and re-
moved the wrappings from a soft
felt hat that he carried in his left
hand. ~ .
“How much will it cost to have this
dyed a. light gray to match my hair?” he
inquired.
“It will cost you at least a dollar,” re-~
plied the hatter. .
The caller wrapped it up again.
“I won’t pay it,” he said, decidedly.
“For 35 cents I can get my hair dyed to
match the hat. Good day, sir.”—Chi-
