In our description of the Army and Navy
Union yesterday we enormously stated their
uniform to ne knight Templar one. The
chapeau is that prescribed by the United States
regulations for both the army and navy, and as
this veteran organization Is composed only of
those who have been in one branch of the SER
vice or the other, they certainly have right
to adopt it. The balance of the uniform was
manufactured to order. There is to our kuowl-
edge no similar uniform in the country, and
certainly none more neat or tasty We have
heard it limited that they intend to make a
grand parade at the opening of their Lecture
and Concert course, as a large number were
unable to get their uniforms in season for the
review on Tuesday. They expect to turn out
100 uniforms soon.
