NEWNAN HERALD NEWNAN, FRIDAY, MAY 21. ONE DO L L A R A IN AOVAHrr.. YEAR A Man and his Horse. Gri'nt Full* (Mont.) Former. She was only a little cayuse mare. A present on his 14th birthday, some ten years before. She had been the companion of hiH boyhood. She carried him to the high school. It was with the mare and the new red buggy and right proud was he of both — that he ventured to call on his lirBt Kiri. And in later years the little mare went with him to college, and still later she was shipped to Montana to help in the making of that new home in the West. Gentle, affectionate, always to be trusted, she bad been the boy's beat friend during those all-important years when childish illusions are laid away with tops and blocks and the other playthings of life’s early days; she was still his comrade when the youth emerged into the man. And now under the fitful, wintry Bun- light, with the chill wind congealing the tears that slowly followed one an- other.down his cheeks, he was round ing up the frozen earth that marked her last resting-place. To the boys on the ranch she was only a cayuse mare, growing old and worthless. To him she was more than most people comrade, companion in a hundred happy escapades of childhood, the last link which bound him to those boyhood duys when life seemed so sim ple—the friend who had never be trayed him. To the ranchmen her death was merely an incident. To him it was a tragedy, And who is there that shall call him less of a mun because the tears welled up at the loss of this friend of the days when life was young? How often has this scene been repeated since the days when man and horse first came together? Down from the days before history was tirBt curved on Egyptian stone, from the dayB when legends and tradi tions were handed from father to son, from bard to harper, come tales of the love of a man and his horse. From the days when the Arab steeds first spurned the desert, carrying their masters from harm from the doughty days of chivalry, intermingled with the stories of the cavalier, the colonist, the pioneer and plainsman are those won- drously touching stories of man and beast. Mun wrought civilization, but not by himself alone. Ever at his side, work ing steadily, Buffering with him and willing to give life itself in his service, was mnn'slbest friend the horse. No one could calculate what the world would have been without him. lie alone made possible the conquest of the prairie. lie brought the first men, hauled their food and supplies, rounded up their cattle and turned their sod. Even in the days of marvelous mechan ical devices for performing farm work he is still as indispensable as in the early days of the pioneer. Civilization makes life more prosaic. We get used to thrills of all sorts. In ventions which a century ago would have startled the world are to-day passed by with little {more than pass ing comment. Our lives, sometimes even our thoughts, are artificial. It is a far cry for some of us from the heart of the dusty city to the vast- neas of a wind-swept plain; from the cushioned seat of a limousine to the swaying creak of a saddle; yet it comes to us all at times.gAt times it comes to the city bred man who has never be strode a horse just ns strongly as it comes to you and me, who were raised on horseback. It is] that instinctive love, bred through the years of many cen turiea—the love of a man for his horse. The passing years take their toll from us all; they destroy many of the illusions that are with us when first we start out in life; yetltho love and trust of man and horse go hand in hand until the end. Colonel E. Folk Johnson, of Louis ville, who fought for the Confederacy, read something in the dispatches from the front the other day that reminded him very much of what happened when he was serving in the Western Army in our own Civil War. “I remember it was a wet, cold rainy night in the middle of winter,’ said the veteran, “when a long, lean chap in my regiment was ordered to go on picket duty. He thought the situ ation over for a minute and then he turned to the sergeant who had brought the measage. " ‘Y’ou go right straight back whar you come from,’ he drawled, 'and tell the Cap'n I jest natchelly can't do it. 1 got a letter from Gin’ral Bragg this mawnin’, and he said good men was giftin' almighty skeerce in this here army, and for me to take good care of myse'f.’” The man who attempts to serve two masters is liable to urrest for bigamy.

SO cents Most Dreaded of All Submarines. New York. May 7.—The submarine “Schley," which is to be built at once by the Electric Boat Co. at Croton. Conn., will be by far the most interest ing and the most dreaded of all sub marines, and in its design and con struction the naval architects have taken big strides. Up to date the largest submarine, as far aa can be learned, that iB building is under 200 feet in length. This is the Class F of the British, which has not yet made its appearance (unleBB it has been com missioned recently,) and is being used secretly. The boats of this class are to have a surface speed of 20 knots. The largest of the German boats are of H00 tons displacement, with a cruis ing radius of 2,000 miles, and make, so it was planned, IS knotB on the sur face and 7 knots submerged. The “Schley” is to be of the Hol land or diving type. It will displace approximately 1,100 tons at the sur face and much more when submerged. The length will be 265 feet over all, or about 65 feet longer than any sub marine now projected by any Euro pean power. This craft is to be driven by Niseco Diesel oil engines, which will develop 4,000 horse-power, and these engines will enable the craft to maintain a speed on the surfa 'e of 20 nautical miles an hour. When sub merged the vessel will be driven by electric motors and will then make 11 nautical miles an hour. The cruiBing speed of the “Schley” will be from 11 to 15 nautical miles an hour, and at these speeds it will have a cruising radius of 7,000 miles. That is, it will have sufficient fuel capacity to enable it to cruise across the Atlantic nnd back again without replenishing its fuel oil. This is an advantage that no other submarine at present projected has, and will make the “Schley" the most destructive vessel of its kind ever built. With its speed it will be exceedingly difficult for any vessel to avoid its at tack, as merchant ships are able to do in many cases with the present Ger man submarines. It has boon suggested that this ves sel, instead of using heavy oil engines, should be fitted with steam power, using the high speed turbine; but this idea was not practical for a vessel of thia kind, because if steam were used it would take from thirty to forty min utes to prepare the vessel for diving. With an internal combustion engine the diving can be done instantly, be cause when the motor is shut off there are no fires to draw or bank, no boilers to‘cool; and, again, when the vessel comes to the surface the oil motors can started instantly. From a military point of view it has been decided that vessels of this typo equipped with steam will prove very inefficient. From a military point of view the "Schley" will be of enormous value in both offensive and defensive service. The boat will have considerable free board, to make it seaworthy under all conditions in the open sea. It will have an elevated bridge in addition to a conning tower, and this will make it practically a small gunboat when used on the surface. It will carry a num ber of guns of Bmall calibre and ma chine guns, and in addition will be fit ted with ten torpedo tubes. These tubes will be arranged to discharge tor pedoes at all angles, and it will not be necessary to maneuver the vessel into some certain position to Bend forth its weapon of destruction, but it will be able to discharge ahead, broadside and astern. The interior of this vessel, too, will be more like that of the warship of her size. She will have comfortable quarters for offices and men; be heated, well stored with fresh air, and carry supplies that will last for a lengthy cruise. It is expected that the “Schley” will be ready for service next year and work will be pushed as fast as possible to get her out early. The cost of the "Schley” will be $1,- 350,000. The Boy and the Man. [Written by Frank L., Mayen. decrajMMi. formerly editor of the I'enaacola Journal. J At home in hia mother's arms to night I have a boy; a little laughing, rosy fellow. The bloom of youth is upon his cheeks, the laughter of love and trust in his eyes. The patter of hiB little feet and the prattle of his baby tongue are music, sweeter to me than all the symphonies of the spheres. He is a baby now. He knows noth ing of the great world's troubles and turmoil, the temptations, the pitfalls, the dangerous and devious ways of life, Supreme in the domain of a mother's love and a father’s care, he is not con cerned with the problems of to-day or the possibilities of to-morrow. He only knows that he is happy, and the dreams of his life are all realized in the joys which babyhood bringB and leaves. But that little fellow will be a man some day. He will awake some morn ing to find that somewhere, somehow, in that slumber zone which none of us can comprehend, he has passed from boyhood to manhood, and he will leave his father’s roof to face and fight the battles of life. When he does so he will meet foes and find conditions that he never knew existed. He will see iniquity and injustice and human suf fering wrought of avarice and vice. He will find man-traps and gilded vestibules of crime existing under the cloak of respectability and the protec tion of the law. He will see the strong oppressing the weak, and he will hear the cry of the defenseless before the grinding wheels of privilege and power. He will face conditions which breed poverty and want and awful misery on the one hand, and out of which grow opulence and luxury and unearned ease upon the other. And when he finds these things—and he will find them, because there will be evils to combat then as well as now—I want him to know two things. I want him to know, first, that his father was not responsible for those conditions; and I want him to know, second, that his father did what he could to prevent them. Whooping Cough. “About a year ago my three boys had whooping cough and I found Cham berlain’s Cough Remedy the only one that would relieve their coughing and whooping spells. I continued this treat ment and was surprised to find that it cured the disease in a very short time," writes Mrs. Archie Dalrymple, Crooks- ville, Ohio. For sale by all dealers. According to the Berlin dispatches, the newspapers there “hail the suc cessful torpedoing of the ‘Lusitania’ as a new triumph for Germany’s naval policy.” Well, posBibly it is. But what kind of a naval policy is it that aimB at such outrages? Germany ap pears to forget that some day this war will end, and that she must then live on terms of at least outward amity with her neighbors. Where will she have a friend outside of Austria-Hun gary and Turkey. It does not seem a wise or sportsmanlike proceeding to turn a nation of 100,000,000 people from neutrality to violent hostility simply for the sake of sinking a big steam ship carrying a little ammunition,— Philadelphia Record.

The California Legislature’s formal recommendation that steps be taken to strengthen our navy gives expression to the thought uppermost at this mo ment in many American minds. Thou sands are rudely awakened from the sweet dream of universal and perpetual peace to be attained overnight. The contention that this nation needs no de fense because it plans no conquest and is so amiable that no other nation, however truculent, would ever thrust a quarrel upon it, is damaged past re pair. The most ardent peace visionary must admit that we are living in one of the stormiest periods of all recorded history. Never before — in modern times, at least—has war put on a more repulsive aspect. Never before, has so little regard been paid to the humanities and to the lives and rights of neutrals. The veneer of civilization wears very thin. We begin to understand how this republic—the least "military” of all na tions, with the possible exception of China, and the most peaceably disposed of all—might be dragged unwillingly into conflict. At this critical stage thoughtful Americans naturally are taking stock of their equipment for national defense. Its inadequacy was never more clearly revealed. The California Legislature’s plea for a stronger navy is timely, but it is well to remember that we are vastly better prepared by sea than by land. In any review of the nation’s resources against invasion, the lack of a “citi zenry trained and accustomed to arms” stands forth as our weakest point. Everybody realize - , of course, that we must rely upon the volunteer armies. We have not sufficient regu lars to man and successfully defend our fortified places against land attack. We need not fear a lack of volunteers, but we face the certainty of their sacrifice in great numbers, to little avail, if they should be called to the colors untrained and ill-equipped and sent against an enemy thoroughly trained and equipped to the last detail.
