Pi of s°or Reinach nnw declares ,
that the Venus of Milo is not a
Venus after all but. an Amphitrite.
His theory, however that the pos
iiicn of the body shows that or e
of the missing hands was holding
up her skirts, while the other was
reding upon her scepter, is not
generally accepted, because there
are no signs of anything like a silk
petticoat ber.ea'h the skirts. In
the same way another recent the
ory that one hand rests on a bicy
cle while the other poin’s out a
st-etch of road suitable for scorch

are ej long that they would catch
in the chain .

The Manila correspondent of
the London Timos thus sings the
praises of cur American troops:
“Their brief experience in actual
wa-rfare established a notable fact
It proved them courageous; decent
high-minded soldiers, worthy of
every confidence and cheerful in
all circumstanc s. If the laurels
they have gained are small in com
parison with those which rewarded
the heroism of their comrades at
Santiago, they are none the less
honorable, for no men could have
endured more or work'd harder
than they, or have shown more
valor.”
