GIRLS MILITARY COMPANY.
Training and Discipline for Young Ladies
of the ''SweIl'' Class.

Training and Discipline for Young Ladies
of the swell" Glass.
What do you think of soldierly ''com-
pany" of girlsf This, however is what Is
talked of, and it is probably by this time in
process of formation. Readers of st. Mich
olas may remember an article by Lieut.. W.
r. Hamilton, U. s. a, which described bis
experience in a western college where. after
witnessing the excellent effect upon the boys,
and the girls or a number of them, with the
consent OF their parents and the faculty, or
ganized a company" and received precisely
the same drill and training in the carriage of
their bodies, in obedience to orders, in the
practice Of arms and general discipline as the
boys and were found more apt and more
rapid in acquiring proficiency.
Lieut.. Hamilton is now q resident of this
city. He is considered a master of tactics,
though comparatively young man, his
Art of War" being the best authority on
the subject which has yet been published. He
has been specially detailed to perfect a sys-
tenn of semi-military order among the police
organizations, which shall define both pow
ers and duties. Heretofore there has been
happy go-lucky condition of things which
made the treatment of individuals, the en-
trance into a private house and other circum-
stances incident to his career absolutely de-
pendent, for the observance Of proprieties
on his conscience and intelligence A regular
order has been found necessary in large and
mixed communities which will ill the place
when those are lacking.
A number Of young ladies Of the "swell"
class-dweilers at Elberon in summer, in
Madison avenue in winter-have applied to
Lieut.. Hamilton to give to them the primitive
military training and discipline which he
gave to his company Of western girls. and
which made "wonen" of straight,
healthy, handsome and strong. His con-
ditions are the same in all cases-written con-
sent of parents or guardians, a suitable uni
form dress and implicit obedience to orders
The dress is a straight single skirt laid in kilt
plaits, blouse waist with naval collar, a
loose silk tie and wide soft heather belt
The Importance of the matter is not in the
formation here and there of military COM
pany Of girls, but the possible and highly de-
sirable introduction of military tactics, train
ing and discipline into the gyrnnastic exer-
cises of girls in our schools This is a great
and needed measure which Is perfectly prac
ticable, and would do more to straighten up
and strengthen weak backs, weak nerves,
weak knees and weakness generally than any
other remedy that could be applied and
would teach them the blessings of comfor-
table, unrestricted dress ss-Jsnny June IN New

The interstate commerce law forbids
railways to charge openly or by device any
one person greater or less compensation
for any service rendered in the transpor-
tatlon OF passengers or property than it
charges for like and contemDoraneous
service. This is one thing that this law
forbids. 1t does not, however prohibit one
company from giving to its patrons better
services than another. Why then patron
ize the railroad that offers the interior
train service when for the same amount of
money you can obtain superior service
ride a less number of miles and still reach
the same points. The railways entering
Wichita and offering these inducements
should be well patronized. The Missouri
Pacific Ry( Fort Scott Route)offers such in
ducements as mentioned above and great
many more which space will not permit to
enumerate. If you are not aware of this
fact-that the Missouri Pacific railway
has elegant train service such as the latest
improved reclining chair cars and the
modern improved Pullman palace Sleep
ing cars, give it trial and you will always
thereafter take the popular route. 1t is
the short line to st. Louis (by 4S miles, as
well as to all Colorado, California and
Washington Territory points Before
purchasing your tickets call at the city
