To become a field marshal an officer must be e general officer. As has been mentioned, s field ms^ shat never retires; but. on the other hand, a retired general officer may be prometed field marshal. The fact that an officer Is top of the general list | does not necessarily mean that he will get the first vacant field marshal's baton, (or selection Is made irrespec tive of seniority. * Ths field nr.arshal commanding In the Mediterranean gets 925,000 a year* Probably a field marshal actively em ployed will get at least 115,000 a year.

The term “light cruiser,'* frequently occurring in war dispatches, Is new and Is liable to mislead the casual reader. It suggests a small vessel, one employed la skirmishing and in -imilar service, whereas It may be ap plied to cruisers of. large displace- mont and heavy armament. The ori gin of the term may be traced back to the desire of the British admiralty to cola a designation for vessels not heavily armored, and yet in some measure protected against the enemy's fire by their construction, it desig nates vessels that have only deek armor and those that are without even this shield. . Among the "light cruisers*' in the British navy are many which displace more than S.OOOMons each, and^one tremendous vessel, the Ecllpve, which hss the dimensions of a dreadnaught.—Boston Transcript.
