MODERN COATS OF MAIL.
Curious story of the Way British
Officers Protect Themselves.
(From the London Globe.

To the uninitiated the days of armor
have long since gone, but a visit to a
certain firm situated In the West End OF
London Will reveal the fact that hundreds
of ves.s OF mail ara sold annually to
Officers In the British Army. The maker
Is n weli-known gunsm it'll, and a large
portion of his incume is derived, not from
manufacturing guns, but through the
sale Of armor to officers. As general
Iule, the mail Is enclosed In leather cas-
lag. which Ia s swn inside tine tunIc so as
TO be invisible unless thu garment Wis
picked to pisces. And the same With
helmets-a similar device is iixsd as linz
ing SO as to give additional protection in
casa Of nesd. Some officers are not
atoye wearing mail vests underneath their
tunics and perfectly obvious to their
comrades, who, although they may scoff
in time OF peace. wonl d tie only too gIad
to don one themselves when Ia the mid.
die OF hostilities. The msjority of the
makers customers ars officers becaus
the snits are very expensive, costing
about ten guineas each. Nevertheless
some 'Tommies' are prepared Co spend
shat amount In order to insure them
selves TO certain extent against the
enemy's spent bullets Agains. modern
bullet, fired at short distance, of course
thu 50 suits Of armor are next TO useless,
although they may be instrumental In
turning its course or stopping its psne-
trating power.
During the Chin o Japanese war Of 1895
the maker in question sent out several
hundred suits of armor, which were
eagerly bought up by the com batants at
heavy prics. During the American
war OF last year be did the same thing; 1t
was not nearly SO succe ssful, for he
found he had been forestalled BY Yankee
firms, and such officers In the American
army as had intended going In for a salt
OF mail had already obtained them. de
then offered his goods to the Spaniards,
who proved to be good customers, and
were prepared to pay good price for the
luxury. notable instance OF the value
of mall occurred during the battle
OF Omdurman last September. One
officer, who Is we'll known, got Into .he
thick Of the tight and was slashed ON all
sides by the D3rvfshes. His men were
surprised TO see that he had efcaped al
the force of the blows, expecting 30 see
him fall from his horse every minute a
mass Of wounds. After the battle was over.
however, he appeared pei fectly anscathed
save for a few slight wounds on the chest.
Then he revealed the suit of mail which
covered him and to which be owed his
life.

NATIONAL ANTHEMS.
Interesting Origin efsongs That Many
People Sing.

1t is curious to study the rise, growth
and popularity of national anthems, and
In the course Of inquiry as to their origin
manv strange facts come to light. A few
of these are collected and accounted for
in this article.
In some cases IL Is impossible to dis
cover who the original composers really
vera "God Save the Queen" and '.La
Marseillaise'' are both cases In point.
Authorities differ as to who actually
wrote them each musical historian assert
ing stoutly. and doubtless believing I'M
piicitiy. that he, and he alone, has dis
covered the true key to the mystery.
'.God Save the Queen" appears to have
been first publicly performedsat dinner
in l740, to celebrate the taking of Porto
hslio by Admiral Vernon, when 1t is said
to have been sung by Henry Carey as his
own composition. both words and music.
Ihe nearest known published COPY to that
date was in the "Harmonica Anglicana"
Of 1T42. In 1745 1t became widely popu.
lar, by being sung in the theatres as a
"loyal song or anthem" during the Scot
tish rebellion.
How far .siod Save the Green" Is de-
rived from older sources will probably
never be known. but several airs exist
with q greater or less resem blance to the
modern tune. An "Ayre" withous fur.
