of his standard bearer, Tostig the
Proud. with Coda, daughter of the
Thane Osgod Clapa, whose name sur
wives in his former estate of Clapham.
A Danish wedding was always an oc-
casion for hard drinking, while the
minstrels played and sang and the
mummers tumbled. When men were
we'll drunken the pleasing sport OF
bone-throwing began; they threw the
bones at each other. The fun OF the
game consisted in the accident of a man
not being able to dodge the bone which
struck him, and probably killed him.
Archbishop Alphege was thus killed.
The soldiers had no special desire to
kill the old man; why couldn't he en-
ter into the spirit of the game and
dodge the bones? AS he did not OF
course he was hit, and as the bone was
a big and heavy bone, hurled by a pow
erful hand, of course 1t split open his
skull
One may be permitted to think that
perhaps King Hardacnut, who is said to
have fallen down suddenly when he
cept a big beef bone which knocked
him down; and as he remained coma
tose until he died, the proud Tostig,
unwilling to have ii said that even in
sport his King had been killed at his
wedding. gave out that the King fell
down in fit. This, however, is specu-

ARMY UNIFORMS.
CURIOUS COSTUMES OF Old
TIME AMERICAN SOLDIERS.
s1lk Hats and High Collars, Turk
ish Trousers and Wide
Skirted Coats.

NOW that the question Of new uni
Eorms for the army is under discussion
it Is interesting to recall some of the
curious uniforms which the brave de-
lenders OF our great republic have from
time to time adopted, either through
choice or necessity. Who would ever
imagine that our soldiers once wore the
tall silk hat Of the modern society gen.
ueman? Yet in 1910 an order was is
sued directing that all the privates be
supplied with a hat identical in shape
and form with the chimney pot hat"
or to-day, and this extraordinary kind
OF military headgear continued until
1ol2, when it was replaced by more
ornate covering, described in the regu
iatdons as "a leather cap, bell-crowned,
adorned in front with a yellow eagle
made Of brass work, embossed with the
reglmental number; a. white pompon
In front and a black cockade at the
side, made Of leather" Certainly it
was a more serviceable hat than its
predecessor, and more suggestive of the
martial spirit that inspired its wearers
to their brilliant deeds of valor in the
struggle Of that year. But the day of
the pot hat was not yet done; in 1921
West Point were requested to adopt the
pattern which had been condemned as
an unsoldier-like head covering but
nine years before, and great was the
wrath of these embryo Washingtons
and Jacksons at the indignity which,
they declared, had been put upon them.
But their dislike soon gave way to
feeling of respect for the uniform, and
perhaps to this fact is due the enormous
popularity of the tall hat among Amer
lean citizens.
In the stirring times Of the revolu-
tionary period the dress of many of
the patriot regiments was at once
quaint and picturesque. Many of the
troops, prominent among them the First
Virginia. Regiment in 1775, We're cloth
ed (at their own expense) in leather
hunting shirts, leggings and caps trim
med with fur-a dress that Washington
recommended to all those who were
unable to obtain the regular uniform.
saying that ''the leather hunting shirt
inspired terror in the hearts of the Brit
fsh soldier as the latter believed that
its wearer must necessarily be a sharp
shooter, in fact another Leatherstock-
ing" On reflection, one can hardly
blame the Britisher for his timidity in
approaching the fearless backwoods-
men. The Pennsylvania regiments, ia
cetiously dubbed the Quaker BRIGADE"
were remarkable for the excessive
plainness of their uniforms, which were
modestly made of buff colored cloth,
trimmed and faced with brown. What
a contrast to the gay trappings of the
troopers known as MOylan's dragons,
described as wearing green short coats
turned up with red, waistcoats of red
cloth, buckskin breeches, and a leather
cap, trimmed with bearskin, flowing
mane Of horsehair hanging from a
curved brass crest at the top a.
In 1902 the then Corimander-in-C Chief
issued an order that the collars of all
privates' coats should not be less than
three inches high nor more than three
