VOLUNTEERS MUST WAIT.
CONGRESS ALONE CAN MUSTER
THEM OUT.
Probabilities That Conditions will
Make Necessary a Standing Army
of One Hundred Thousand Men.

WASHINGTON, November 1.-The
request of the First Colorado Infant
ry to be returned from Manila to the
United States cannot be granted by
the war department. 1t was stated by
war department official that such
requests have been frequent from the
soldiers of volunteer organizations,
who enlisted to fight but did not en-
list for garrison duty. Nothing could
be done until congress met and pro-
vided some kind of a force to take the
place of the volunteers.
The subject of the reorganization of
the army with a view to securing an
adequate force for the new possess
sions of the United States has already
received the serious consideration of
the President, the secretary of war
and the officers of the army. The
President will make recommendation
to congress on this subject, embody-
ing his views and the views of those
who are in position to give him the
best advice. 1t is probable that he
will recommend an increase of the ar
my to something like 100000. although
he may think that $4,000 is enough.
There has been some talk also of en-
listing for garrison duty in Cuba. in
Porto Rico and the Philippines. 1t is
believed that by this method a con-
siderable portion of the restless popu-
l0tion of the islands, and especially
those who have been bearing arms in
the insurgent and Spanish armies.
could be kept quiet and law abiding.
1t is stated by officers of the army
that the duties devolving upon the
troops under the new order of things
cannot be satisfactory to volunteers,
and that an army viii have to be pro-
vided which will go where it is sent
without complaints of any kind.
Men who enlist in the regular army
hereafter will understand that they
are likely to be called upon at any
time to go out of the country and to
garrison distant lands for long peri
DDS. 1t is believed that the demands
which have been made upon Senators
and Representatives for the muster
out of volunteer regiments and the
discharge of volunteers in regiments
which have remained in the service
have been so great that they will be
convinced that the regular army for
garrison duty in the new possessions
is an absolute necessity.

Many of the songs have already been
used on the Islands and have proved
tuneful and pleasing to the children.

WATALAE ALL RIGHT.
Soldier Denies That Convalescents
Dislike New Camp.

A New Yorker states that report
published to the effect that the sol
diers are dissatisfied with the new
convalescents' camp at Waialae is mis-
leading, and has created some indig-
nation at quarters. 1t appears that Il
majority of the men are more than
satisfied.
"We have everything we want, and
the very best of care at Waialae."
continued the man in blue. "The air
is dry and pure and all the boys who
were under the weather are improv-
ing. We have baths within twenty
five feet of the camp. 1t is the best
place we have yet seen for camp life.
There are men everywhere who prefer
to be near towns. Such may yearn
for "A place nearer the car line, but
the majority of the men are caring
most for the healthiest and most COM
Portable locality"
Mr.. Isenberg was seen about the re-
port and said: 81 am surprised to
hear that the boys have kick against
Waialae and can hardly believe it.
They take occasion frequently to
thank me for the advantages I seek
to place at their disposal and tell me
they are more than satisfied. T like
the boys and we get along well to-
gether. No kicks have ever come to
me-"

Of strips Of brick paving IN macadam

1T appears to Us that this combina-
ton Of brick and maoadam is the most

traffic is such that the maintenance Of

says:
"But in localities where there is a

baulage, but are expensive to keep in
repair under the heavy loads that pass
over them. For such places as these the
plan Of using paving brick to take the
heavy wear appears to, be especially ad.
vantageous and deserving Of extended
adoption.
1.-THE details of construction, such AZ
the foundation under the bricks, the
construction Of the macadam at their
sides and between them, the filling be-
tween the bricks, etc., would vary with
local circumstances and with the teach
ings Of experience, but they need not be
considered in q study Of the merits Of
the scheme generally.
1T may be pointed out also in this
connection that such q strip of brick
pavement as ia here proposed would
make an admirable road for cycling,
and the influence of that important
body of agitators for road improvement
might we'll be exerted in favor Of this
proposition.
The drawbacks to the narrow strip
method Of construction are the danger
Of the fitting Of the outside bricks in
driving on and of, or crossing the line
with heavy loads, and the danger Of
disruption or displacement by frost.
To meet the first Of these difficulties
q CURLING Of roreh stone might be laid
If stone is mot available, bricks could
be set on end for curbine, or special
form of brick might be designed for the
purpose, Of which the surface would
form part Of the trackway.
In cases where damage BY lrost is to
be apprehended on account Of the char.
acter of the soil the construction might
be combined with that of the Illinois
farm roads used by Judge Cation. The
combination would be as shown in the
accompanying cut.
