"It is a wonderful but terrible ex perience for me. Terrible not that Wu are In danger personally, but because It is pathetic to see the chap you dined gayly with lust night pick up his rifle, kiss his family good-bye and calmly Join hla colors. Risen to a Man. “All England has risen as one man. The internal discords which threatened to disturb the empire have completely evaporated and the Irish will lose no opportunity to be in the thick of the fray. Nearly every ablo-bodlod Eng lishman has enlisted. They come from all quarters and classes and quietly and grimly go about the business of war. There Is something deadly In th(! atmosphere which looks as bad for the kaiser as It did for Napoleon a hundred years ago. This will be a fight to the finish and the Impression Is that England will not rest until the military power of Germany has for ever ceased to be a menace to the peace of the world The spirit of the Er*nrh is wonder ful. A man Just from Parle said ho whs In the suburbs when the mobili zation order was posted. A man pass ed by on a bicycle, dismounted, read the notice and turned to leave. He was presumably a servant, snd h!s mistress, who was passing In a c»>, said: 'Jean, you won't leave us at once?' Touching 111* hat the man said, "Out, madaine; an revelr; a Berlin!” and off he rode to Join his regiment.

Mobilization. 'Ve have worked out all of our mo bilization schedules and are now In the thick of moving the troops. We are doing our Job on Ihe Great Eastern splendidly, and I am proud of my gang. They are up on their toes and act like a bunch of Ameri cans. Tho entire outfit Is pulling like one man. “I saw the German ambassador off yesterday, lie Is Prince Mchnowsky, The princess, his suite and about 20h Germans accompanied him. It was a pathetic and historical sight. Many people were on hand. The ambass'i dor and the princess arrived by mo tor. They passed between the row* of people to ihe platform, where tHo train started In absolute silence. There was not a hiss nor a 'boo.' Not a foot moved There was nothing but a dread !y. uncanny silence." RUSSIAN n IN HUY Officers Are the Best Trained in Europe, Due to Their Ex perience in the War With Japan. St. Petersburg Due to their ox- I'rtsnoe In the »ar with Japun, the officers of tin" Russian army wtre estil tn lie the lie.it trained In Ku rnpe at the beginning of the present titanic conflict. The education of the modern officer has radically changed during the last few years. The de velopment of present-day warfare has tendered It necessary for him to ac quire an ever Increasing burden of knowledge so that on the continent today the military officer Is certainly one of the hardest worked members of the community. Every year ma noeuvers are made more realistic. But nfter all. the best training for war Is war. The Husstan army today con tains ttie only men In Fhirope who have had this training, as far as war on a vast scale Is concerned. Tens of thousands of officers and men who ure In the fields with the Russian army today have had the actual ex perience In modern warfare on which tho text-books of the other contend ing armies are based. Among the endless battalions who ure now on the Prussian and Austrian frontiers fighting the Germans and their alliea, are any number of officers who have made the Inevitable mis takes committed by troops facing fire for the first time. All Seasoned Men. 11 is probable that every regiment of Russian troops in action today contains seasoned men who faced the Inferno of Japanese fire at Tort Ar thur. Mukden and the other deadly combats of the Manchurian campaign. Military experts understand the In t ppredable moral effort which thu presence of such veterans has on un tried recruits. Again these fire tried veterans are opposing the Germans with their forty four years of ceaseless drilling and preparation for war. The conflict of 1914. five weeks old, has not yet dem onstrated whether or or not book training la equal to experience. The world is eagerly watching the test. The Russian officer, In social stand ing and his relations with blu men Is a sort of mean between the German and French officer. I.lke the Ger man he Is of official caate and per haps may come from the nobility, but often, like most of the French officers, lie conies from humble origin, and therefore Is on friendly and Intimate terms with the men under hint The Russian officer enters the military academy very young, seven years or thereabouts and remains tn training ten or eleven years before he Is given a commission. Many Difficulties The difficulties confronting the Rueeian general staff In the present war are many and great. While the British army knows something of the guarding of frontiers by its experi ence in India, and the Gemiana and French have had their Alaace-lior raine frontiers to look after, huge Russia has seven frontiers to he pro tected The grrat empire Is vulner able from seven angles, tiy land and *eu. and while sending her horde* of invaders Into Austria and I’rusaia. must always keep a big force at home to look after her thousands of miles of border*. It Is an axiom of war to be prepared to out-nun t>er an enemy at a given point, but Russia has to be ready to out-number her enemy at many points hundreds and sometimes thousands of miles from each other Another grave obstacle In the way of the Russian general staff now are the traditions of bribery and corruption which still remain tn certain circles of the Rus sian bureaucracy.
