GREAT SLAUGHTER OF DUMMIES Power of Artillery — Effective and Faulty Fortifications—Destruction of Toy Houses — The Lessons to Be Learned. Artillery Practice. Okehampton Correspondent London Times: At the artill camp the bat- teries have been practiced. Dummies representing guns, cay and infantry —the latter somctimes extended in formation of attack.sometimes in shel- ter trenches, somctimes in groups, sometimes kneeling, sometimes stand- ing fired at from unknown dis- tances, which are never measured.

M1 fired four shell and 12 ghrapnel at a fiving line of 200 men kneeling, representing the battalion resceve, at a distance of 1,550 yards. 1t wus that 22 men were struck by 25 bullets. ‘b man oceupying a front of about a yard and a half.

M1 then then fired at 1250 yards four common and six shrapnel shells at some infuntry in-groups retiring in disorder. The results were that 17 of the 45 men bullets. > final practice was at three can- argets. with considerable intervals between them, nine fect square. s posed to represent the heads of columns of cavalry. ch battery discharged 4 common and shrapnel shells. The results were at a ro n.»“( 2000 yards, 21, 15 and 15 hits, i umn would, the ¢ been anni- the extreme :ango about 4000 yards—that is, a little over two and onequarter miles. Three batteries tired among them 50 common shells at a rectangle about 50 yards square—the rectangle being indicated by six white targets—intended to rep- vesent the site of a group of hous The number which lufiz inside the ve tangle was found, on subsequent in- spection, to huve been 7. Soverul others, fell so close beyond the rectangle that had there been actual houses some of theso would have been hit. Iven set- ting aside these, the shells which did actually fall inside the rectangle would have converted the supposed group of houses into ruins and made the place untenable. As to the important question of the distances at which artillery is effective, a few observations may interest your readers. Prince Hohenlohe says that the effect of artillery becomes notice- able at 5500 yards, but that no great re- sults are obtained until shrapnel fire is effective. This commencesat 3000 yards, fs decisive at 2000 yards and annihilat- ing at 1100 yards. As to infantry, he not consider it imposant atover ) yards. The results of the practice I have seen here during the last ys show that even againsta firing kneeling guns are very effective at from 1550 to 2200 yards. At the latter distance out of 50 men kneeling in a shelter trench 11 men were struck; out of 200 men kneeling in the upeu,‘.".! men were struck at 1550 yards, and at 1000 yards 100 men kneeling lost 80 men, the number of rounds fired being respge- tively 8 common and 12 fl‘ll‘l\])lll'l shells, and 6 common and 14 shrapuel shells, the common shells being chiefly used to find the range. At ranges above 15 1s the fire of infantry is practically \ificant against artillery. Against ions of infantry, batteries limber- ed up and cavalry in column I have no doubt that the effect would be very de- ructive at even 4000 yards, even under rather unfavorable condition of light and ground, provided the enemy were d. 1do not think, however, that cancing rapidly in line,or cancing in form tack, has much to fear from artillery at over 8000 yards, owing to the difficulty ..| seeing where the trial shells burs where they burst with relation to nu- troops fired at. Even at 4000 yards infantry kneeling in a shelter trench would suffer appreciably with fairly favorable conditions of ground and light. The general opinion here scems to be that 4000 yards would be generally the extrome effective range of artillery but that at that distance the artiller; duel might and should be commenced, Whereas the writers on tactics have till now laid it down that artillery fire is not practically effectivo at ranges be- yond 2500 yards, that limit should in future be extended to from 3000 to 4000 yards. A great aid to accuracy is the 'ott telescope sight, which is mechan- ical in 1ts action, and renders a man who understands how to work it the equal of a good marksman, and is un- atfected by the nerves of the man laying the gun. As to the power of artillery generally, I frankly confess that my estimation of it has increased enormously during the two days that I have been here. Sir Evelyn Wood, who paid a visit here a short time ago, has also formed an in- creased opinion of its value and effi- ciency. He was especially struck, I am told, i.y the results of the firing of case. August 18th—The final experiment with the 20-pounders was of a highly interesting and practical nature, viz., one on the effect of the fire of the guns in question on the troops behind earth works, The target consisted of a hastily coustructed field work, such as can be thrown up in about 18 hours. It had a fuce directly perpendicylar to the line of fire. The crest of the parapet was 6 feet above the level of the ground. On the banquetteof the face were stagd- ing 37 dummies representing infantry soldiers of a height of 6 feet. In rear of the left fiank were 8 similar dum- mies. Each dummy occupied about one yard of front. The lessons taught as regards field enginegring scem to me to be the following: to 9 feet thick at the level of the exte- rior crest could in a few minutes be cut through by common shell fired by 20- pounders at a range of 1800 that in hasty field fortification command is of little value and that a sunken terve- plein is indispensat The poultice which draws out a man’s virtues is the sod that covers his grav If you don’t want all your virtues known 100 soon, regulate your regulutor with Warner's Log Cabin Sarsaparilla.

(AFTER THE FRENC DAUD! 1 OF ALPHONSE L Herbert Fieldin America: The reg- iment was deployed along the embank- ment of arailroad, and served as a fair target for the entire Prussian army, massed in its front under cover of a neighboring wood. The musketry fire was 50 hot that the command was given to “‘lie down,” but no one would obey. and the nti talion remained st m«linxv proudly ranged about their heart animated with hed the last dropof life's and for his count 'J*h‘-m-mm rays of the setting sun, shed- ding a lurid glave upon that confused mass of men, enveloped in the smoke of battle, gave the appearance of a herd of cattle surprised in an open conntry by the first outburst of a frightful tempest. Fire reigned supreme on the line of the railroad, and all sound was drowned by the sharp reports of the small arms, or the whiz of the bullets, as they sped on their errands of death, resounding over the tle field like the vibrating cords of some funcreal instrument. om time to time the flag, which flut- tered proudly above the heads of soldiers, wouldwaver in the hands of the standard bearer, and then fall, the owner having met his death bravely upon the ficld of battle. Then a voice would be he above the grouns of the wounded. ing aloud to the soldiers,**To the colors, my men, to the color: And some officer, responding to the words of his chief, would rush madly through the gloom and smoke to where the dying Color-bearer lay, and the heroie flag would again proudly wave above the scene of carnage. wenty times it fell! Twenty times its staff, still warm with the life’s blood of its former bearer, would be torn from his dying grasp and again raised on high; and when the sun disappeared behind the western hun/ou.:\ml the handful of men, who were all that were ixty-fifth of the line, siowly retreated to the rear, the flag was but a the twenty color- b\.-llcl of the day. 1. Sergeant Hornus was an old veteran, who had spent twenty years of his 1ifd in the service of -his country before ob- taining the stripesof a “‘sous-officer.” His low, weather-beaten forchead showed thatits owner had endured the dangers of many campaignsand the dull monotony of barrack life, while his shoulders, bent by the continual weight of the knapsack, gave the unconscious air of one who had been for many a soldier in the ranks. He stuttered S t00; but there nothing in the that demands the gift of eloguence; and Serg Hornus was in other respectsevery a soldier. On that evening, after the battle, the colonel said to him; “You hold the colors, my man: very well, keep them.” And when the “‘vivan- diere” hastily stitched upon the sleeve of hisold army coat, which bore the faded stains of rain and fire, the gold stripes of the *‘sous-licutenant, the soul of the old man was, for the first time in his_humble life, imbued with honest pride. The figure of the old soldier became erect; his eyes, so accustomed to strike the ground twenty pacesto the front, were now raised to that fluttering em- blem of his country, which he proudly bore far above the ravages of treason, defeat and death. No man was ever happier than Hornus, when, in the midst of battle, he grasped with both hands the staff of his beloved ensign and planted it firmly in the leather socket in his belt. He did not speak; he did not move; but, sombre asa priest, he clung to his flag as though some sacred object were in his charge. His whole life, his whole strength, was in the hand which held the golden fringe of that emblem that 50 proudly met the shower of bullets that rained upon it; and in those eyes, defiantly gazing upon the Prussian lines, there was a look which seemed to say, “*But try and take it from me.” Not even death parted him from his flag. and when, after the bloody battles of Borny and Gravelotte, the tri-color still floated from its staff, pierced and rent in tatters by the storm of war, but still borne in the firm grasp of the 'vet- eran Hornus. . September arvived. the army was en- camped about Metz, the cannons rusted ,1.,-,vfiy from disuse, and the first troops of the world, demoralized by inactivity, the necd of rations, and the lack of en- couragement, died slowly of fever and disease by the side of the very arms they would so gladly have borne in the defonse of their country. Neither ofticers nor soldiers had faith in their commander, and Hornus, alone of the whole army was confident of sue- cel His adored tricolor was every- thing to him, and as long as he could feel its presence it scemed to him that the nation’s honor was safe. But, un- fortunately, as the army was not in the field, the colonel kept the colors at his quarters in_one of the faubourgs of Metz; and the gallant Hornus was like a mother who is separated from her first-born infant. His thoughts were continually of this tricolor, and, when he could endure it no longer, he used to turn his steps toward Metz,and take his ways to the colonel’s house, where he could see it reposing guietly against the walls of the salon. Then, his fears quieted, and with a feeling of renewed courage, he would return to his storm- beaten tent BIL(, dream of the battle and the charge, which would Plnnt his dear flag proudly upon the Prussian ram- D"l‘hese bright illusions were banished by a general order of Marshal Bazaine. One morning Hornus, on going to the parade ground, was surprised to notice the whole camp collected in groups, excitedly dicussing among themselves. Now and then a ery of rage would es- cape from some one; hands would be raised and flngers pointed angrily to- wards the town, as though trying to i picate the one on whom their wrath had fallen, *'The traiter.” L4 “‘He should be shot before the whole army!” were remarks that were fre- %uunlly made,and the officers permitted without a word; they even form-.-u} silent groups by themselve: ered heads, as though ashamed to meet the eyes of their soldiers. The cause of this excitement and these an threats was an order of Marshal tin- zaine, by which 150,000 well-armed, healthy men were delivered to the en- emy without striking a single blow. “And the flags?” asked Hornus, becom- with low: A parapet of from 6 | blood, which gives sound | ing visibly pale.

Hornus trembled as he en- tered. The other color-bearers were there—fifty or sixty—silent, broken- hearted officers; and those somber, I wagons, with men with bowed heads following them. It was like a funeral. In @ corner upon the mud- covered pgvement, were heaped all the colo of the army of Bazine. Nothing could be sadder than the sight of those bright shreds of silk, that mass of golden fringe and carved staffs—that glorious pavapher- nalia of w ignominiously thrown upon the puvement, and besmeared with the stains of mud and rain. An oflicer of the commissary took,them one by one, and, at the name of his regiment, each color-bearer advanced and received his receipt, calm and impassable.

R Go and get your receipt.” “*My receipt,” he murmured. The flag was there before him. was his own—the most beautiful, the most tattered of them all. As he saw it, he fancied himself once more upon the embankment of the railroad. He heard the bullets sing, the groans of the dying as they fell, and the voice of the colonel sounding sharp and clear: “To the colors, my men!” . . . Then he saw h1s fwenty comrades who fell in defense of the flag, and he, the twenty- first, rushing bravely in his turn to seize the fallen emblem and give it the support it needed! Yes! on that he had sworn to defend it until death---and now . . . At the thought the life- blood of his heart rushed madly to his head. Intoxicated, delirious, he threw himself upon the Prussian officer. He tore the adored ensign from his grasp, and pressed it fondly to his breast; then he tried to raise the flag on high, and called forth: “To the colo—" But his voice was stifled in his throat. In that atmosphere of treason and death, which weighed so heavily upon the disgraced town, the flag could no Longer wave, no proud being could live. Old Hornus fell dead with his colors tenderly within his grasp. LU It Hypocrisy is & sort of homage vice pays to virtue.
