MILITARY MATTERS.
An Interesting Talk by Col. Wagner, Chief
Umpire at Manassas.
NEW YORK. Nov. 19.—A special meet
ing of the military service Institution of
the United States was held here tonight
nt the Seventh regiment armory. . Col.
Arthur T. Wagner, who was the chief
umpire at the maneuvers held In Manas
sas In September, read a paper on "Joint
Maneuvers of the Regular Army and Na
tional Guard," In which he gave the re
sult of his experience and made several
recommendations for future maneuvers,
which would, he believed, tend to increase
their value to the officers and men.
"At Manassas." he said. "Thero were
fifty-one umpires at headquarters be
tween the two forces and twenty-four
with each body. This, however many it
might seem, was not enough, for often an
1 umpire would be required to pass judg-
; ment on a situation which he had not
witnessed, or hud only arrived In time
I to gee the culmination of. One umpire
to each regiment Is positively needed, he
said, "and each umpire, who should be
an officer not below' the rank of cap-
■ tain, should be provided with a mounted
• orderly."
I ’.’The question nrlses as to whether
• these maneuvers pay," said the speaker
I In conclusion. "In answer, let me say
i that there are many things which cannot
| be learned from books, but where the
hard practical field experience Is the only
teacher of value.

officers, particularly are benefited and the
greatest loss of life In war does not
arise from lack of courage, but from of

Judge Speer yesterday passed an
order in the E. L. Moore bankruptcy
case which places twenty-nine mules
and one horse in the hands of United
States Marshal George White and re
quires that they be shipped to Macon
for sale. There are also two cars of
shingles and one of lumber placed In
the hands of the marshal for disposal.
These will be shipped to Macon or to
Savannah for sale.
The order requires that the marshnl
report each sale to Judge Speer for con
flrmatlon. The bankruptcy proceed

creditor are Ehrlich & Bro., et

ON VERGE OF SPLIT.
Dillon and Lexton May Leave Leader
ship to .Redmond,
LONDON. Nov. 10.—The Irish Na
tionalist party is on the verge of a
serious spilt within its own ranks.
Unless some amicable arrangement can
quickly be arrived at Messrs. Dillon
and Sexton with their personal follow
ing will secede from the leadership of
Jofin Redmond. In this event Mr. Red
mond, will have the aggressive support
of William O’Brien over whom a dls-
put has arisen. It is stated on good
authority that Mr. Redmond has been
told that unless he wlthdarws his sup
port from Mr. O’Brien secession will
result. No definite conclusion has been
reached but it is understood that Mr.
Redmond prefers to throw in his lot
with Mr. O’Brien.
The present Internal crisis is the
result of the gradually Increasing dis
agreement over »he action Instigated
by Mr. O’Brien and carried out by Mr.
Redmond on the famous land purchase
conference with the Irish landlords.

World’s Fair, St. Louis, :
than a quarter of a century almost un
checked on the railroad lines from Ca
lais and Boulogne to Paris, was in her
day a woman of exceptional beauty,
famous In England and on the conti
nent. She has been a favorite sub
ject for great artists. Her portrait by
Whistler formed the subject of a most
amusing controversy between the
painter and her husband, which fur
nished much entertainment to the pub-
not alone In France and In Eng
land. but nlso here In America.
What Lady Eden herself regards as
her most successfui portrait is that
by Herkorner, exhibited some years ago
nt the Royal Academy In London, and
which now hangs on the walls of her
country seat, Wfndlestone Hall, oppo
site Sir Peter Lely's celebrated and his
toric portrait of Nell fi Wynne, the fa
vorite of King Charles If, and mother
by him of the first Duke of HI. Albans,
from whom the present duke of that
name Is descended In a direct line.
Lady Eden was known prior to her
marriage as the lovely Sybil Orty,
daughter of Sir William Orty, and a
great-grandchild of the first arid fa
mous Earl Grey. Her husband. Sir
William Eden, is very wealthy, a large
mine owner, and the possessor of a
10,000-acre estate.
His full title is that of "flir William
Eden, of Maryland. North America,”
one of the two baronetcies which he
holds having been conferred upon his
great-grandfather. Sir Robert Eden,,
for his services as governor of the firo-
vjnet of Maryland. Sir Robert married
Caroline Calvert, sister of the last Lord
Baltimore. Sir Frederick, Eden, ah
un« le of the present baronet, was kill
ed at the battle of .New Orleans.
