line cavalry on par in appearance
with the English, French, German and
Austrian cavalry. 1t is almost newt
able that the uniforms of the infantry
and artillery will also be made more
attractive to bring them up to the
smartness of the cavalry.
Agitation in the army for change of
uniform has been caused, many think,
by the feeling that the National Guard.
or at least the most valuable part of it,
certainly presents better appearance
than the army when in full dress. The
regiments distinguished from Maine to
California for their handsome and SOL
dierly appearance-the Seventh of New
York. Fifth of Maryland, First Of Hi
nois, First Cadets of Massachusetts and
many others-none Of them wear the
army uniform
One curious effect of the change of
uniform in the army will be that It will
cause a change in the dress uniform
of 100000 Guardsmen sooner or later.
The officers of every State in the I'm
ion and majority of the men wear
uniforms strongly resembling the uni
forms Of the army, and as State laws
in most of the states and usage in them
all require that the State troops con-
form to the dress, drill and discipline
of the army, changes from their pres
ent uniforms are inevitable.

Hair Mattresses.


The first quality of hair is horse
hair and comes chiefly from South
America from wild horses. They use
only the tails and name, and the own
ers of the horses wind them up in
coils every two years. Oftentimes a
horse will have escaped the round-ups
for four or five seasons and will come
in with tail ten feet long. The hair
Of South American wild animals is
longer than the hair of animals of
almost any other section. This hair
is worth from 80 to As cents a pound
in the rope, according to length. 1t is
twisted into ropes, which gives it the
curl, and in that way shipped to the
mattress makers. Hair over sixteen
inches long is used for making hair
cloth, such as was put in furniture in
our grandfathers' days; that is worth
from 81 to Sc pound.
Second quality of hair is a mixture
of cattle heads and the short hair of
the horse. The cheapest is goat hair
from Siberia, worth from 4 to 6 cents
a pound.

Chicago, Feb. 20.-The states of
Wisconsin, Iowa and Illinois are
practically snowbound. Reports from
Cedar Rapids and Webster City, la. ,
Rockford and Dalesburg, H., midi
cate an average snowfall since last
night of two feet. Throughout Wis.

fall was much heavier, in fact the
greatest of the season. A 40. mile

drifts, completely paralyzing street

tional Guard, which, as a rule, wears
the army uniform, will rejoice.
1t is now certain that the helmet
Is to be discarded, a hussar uniform
similar to that of Squadron A of New
York adopted for the cavalry, new
headgear adopted for the artillery and
infantry, and numerous other changes
made. AS the army will probably be
largely increased by Congress in re-
spouse to the demand of the country
for men to man the new Notifications,
the War Department may be expected
to announce the changes in time to fit
out the additions to the army with the
new uniforms.
The cavalry receives attention first,
because its present dress uniform is
unsuitable for the work, and because
it is, as in other countries, the Show"
corps Of the army. Its officers are the
men who stood high in their classes
at West Point. The men are the dan
dies of the service, a superior class Of
men, who take pride in their appear
ance and spend part of their pay in
having their dress uniforms refitted,
and sometimes, 1t is said, replaced,
with uniforms Of better cut and ma
terial than those supplied by the Gov
eminent contractor. On parade and
for ceremonies the cavalry now wears
a heavy and ugly helmet, abeSk sn-
suitable for rider as the bearsHn hat
of drum major. The trousers worn
are not riding trousers, and the yellow
facings scarcely serve to relieve the
plainness of the dark blue coat.
The change to a hussar uniform,
with its black fur busby, tight tunic,
braided across the breast, riding trou-
sers and Hessian boots will put our
