are Of cornfower blue satin.

There are no new colors in gloves but
a recombination OF tones has been intro

foctly sufficient for trimming, though there
is no reason to assert that small capes,
shoulder pieces with stole fronts, or in fact
any of the good orthodox cuts Of fur have
lost one whit of their popularity.
Smart but Chilly.
All the new capes, of course, are shawl
shaped, their sloped fronts treated very
often with a graduated arrangement Of tails,
but for warmth these new garments are
snare and delusion. They seem fairly to
invite and hold every icy blast. The most
commendable of the cape family are those
rather graceful little fellows OF cloth that
only drop to the elbow and have revers and
u high collar faced with fur.
Some of these capes are cut from very
eaily colored cloth. in warm reds and blues
and are satin-quilted inside which adds
many degrees to their warmth. With all
these wraps exceedingly high collars are
worn without exception, and among the
small things in fur are long scarfs Of mink,
marten and otter. Russia and Alaska sable

the ukase on muffs, for it is said that the
only fad of that gentle, melancholy woman
is for furs. Just now she prefers melon

The nearest station of the road to the

An order for about 500 Army wagons has
been placed with a number of West Vir-

Meanwhile, recruiting proceeded in the
different company rooms. Capt. Sydney
Jacobs, of Company NJ, is anxious to Sc
cure recruits. He needs about a dozen
more and it is expected that the company,
when finally mustered, will make an ex-
cellent showing.
The National Fencibles are rapidly Sc

is gratifying that a number of the origi-

headquarters.
The Ordway Rifles under Capt. Hodges
is practically ready for muster and it Is

Athletes Rejected.
To some extent the delay in securing
men is due to the rigidity of the exam
fnation under Dr.. Forwood the Army
surgeon He has secured the assistance
of Regimental Surgeon r. A Pyies who
with Dr. Clarence Weaver. aided yester-
dav in the examination of applicants.
II is surprising the large number Of
athletes and football players who have
been rejected. Their defects consist prin-
cipaIlv in leformities. Many were one
sided. having trained only one side of
fheir body. ano a number were found to
be the oWrels o. crooked and bent fingers.
Then the tobacco heart has caused the
rejection of a great many applicants,
while, among all other causes, the lack
of chest development has been the most
noticeable In some cases men have not
possessed the requisite weight for their
height, but as the men can have re-
examination upon the request of their
captain this defect is frequently reme-
died.
Men have found various ways of cor
recting their faults on the second exam
ination. One man drank six pints of wa
ter yesterday, and on the second trial was
found possessed of the right weight. An
other man with weak eyes memorized the
testing card and was able to answer the
questions of DR.. Weaver.
They breathe a sigh of relief when the
ordeal is passed and settle themselves
down in contentment when the mastering
service is concluded. Now those who are
in the service are asking that they be sent
into camp instead of being kept in their
armories. They will hail with delight the
order to come today for their removal 10
