JAPANESE ALSO ARE ADEPTS Changes In Methods of Modorn Wars Involvss Deeper Formations, Widsr Fronts and Enlarged Aroas for Movements of Troops. New York, Jan. 12. In an address before the annual session of the mili tary service Institution at Governors island, Brigadier Oeneral A. W. Oree ly, chief signal officer of the army, says that warfare In future must cover the control of mailt, the telegraph lines, balloons and visual signalling-. General Greely had comments to make upon the preparedness of other nations In renpect to this branch of the service, declaring that the United States baa led them. Germany, he said, has been quick to take advantage of our experience, reorganising her signal service after the civil war and the Spanish-American war. . As to Great Britain, General Greely pointed out that her service Is badly defective, although Lord Wotsely has repeatedly urged bis country to re- organise It The Japanese, he said, have conduct ed their operations with a skill hitherto unsurpassed In telegraphing and bal looning. General Greely gave the In terestlng Information that not once was Oeneral Kurold under Are In mak ing his celebrated flanking movements, and that so perfect were his telegraph lines that only once was a station with headquarters lost and then only for short time. He also praised the Jap anrse censorship. "The change In the conditions of modern warfare," be concluded, "will henceforth Involve deeper formations, wider extended fronts, and enlarged areas of field operations.'

Another Intercwtlug statement which the second duke made to General WU son, who writes to the Cornhlll, was that when his father wa. assigned te the command of an expedition to be sent out against the city of Washing ton and New Orleans In 1814 he de clined the command chiefly on the ground that he would not fight against Washington's countrymen.

The wealthy goruinudu of Uowe cher lshed a strong partiality for song birds. Both Horace aud Martial refer with approval to ronxt thrush, and Ovid recommends "a crown of thrushes" as a lover's present to bis mistress. Thrushes' breasts were one of the In gredients of the celebrated Apiclan dish, "Patina apli-luna," which also In cluded becra floon, mushrooms, sow's udder, fmh and chickens, rivaling the heterogeneous contents of a gypsy's "pot hu feu." Horace relates that the sons of Ac tiiiH, to stimulate their appetite for dinner, lunched on "nightingales of monstrous price," anil Vnrro tells us of the aviary of Lucullns, which was aIho a "sallc ii mnnger," so that the epicure gratified bin ears and his palate simultaneously, feasting upon the deli cate warblers whose congeners, uneon scIouh of their coming doom, were dis coursing meanwhile the most exquisite mnstc.
