A thousand characters in history are more important than Wellington, as individuals, although his good foitune, finding Napoleon just when the latter could be pushei over will make him memorable as long as this era of war shall teem important. It is advantageous not to under estimate your adversary, and not to fear him. Wellington did not underestimate Napoleon, for he said that Bonapartes presence on the battlefield was worth forty thousand men. He might have said four hundred thousand. Wellington was able to study in Napoleon at long range, Spain, where ' Napoleon did not go in person,-- and studying orders sent to the French mar- shals, Wellington was encour aged by the discovery that Napoleon could make mistakes. When he met Naooleon, or rather the shadow of Napoleon, at Waterloo, Wellington had no fear of the great name. Every trainer of a prize lighter can tell you what that means. This writer, long ago saw John L. Sullivan, in the old New York Madison Square Garden, walk slowly up to a powerful athlete, taller, stronger than himself.
