One Of tie most interesting relics IN
the National museum at Washington is
the camp chest used by Washington
throughout the Revolution. 1t isa COM
pact affair about the size CT q tourist S
wicker chest for cooking Of the present
day, 211 feet loue. feet wide, l foct
high, and it contains al outfit consist
ing OF tindcr bcS. pepper and salt
boxes, bottles. knives, forks, sridiron
and plates Every hit Of the outfit save
one bottle, which is broken ct the
shoulder, lco;is st-cng enough to stand
another campaign.
Near by are the tents used by Wash
ingtor-three in number. Ouo IS o
sleeping test, rs feet long, with walls
6 feet high and roof with q 6 foot
pitch. Il IS made CT liuei. The other
two are marquee tents Of smaller size,
one with walls, the other q shelter tent
open on the sides. That the tentirs ma
terial of Revolutionary days was good
stuff is proved by the excellent condi-
tion of these tents, which sheltered the
great commander through all his severe
campaigns.
Here also is Washington's uniform,
worn by him when he gave up his COM
mission as commander in chief Of the
army, at Annapolis in 1882. 1t consists
Of big silaGbelly coat Of blue broad
cloth, lined and trimmed with soft
buckskin and orrap!eGted with broad,
fat brass buttons: buclzskin waistcoat
ard breeches. The size Of the garments
(Which are in state Of excellent pres
ervation) testify to the big stature Of
the Father Of His Country and sug-
eest that he had an eye to fine ap-
pearance in his dress.-Washington

watsrwOrkS. He moved there during
the night and bivouacked. st dawn he
was shellcd by the enemy and attacked
or three sides. He dispatched two horse
artillery batteries and his baggage to-
ward Bloamfortein, covering some OF
them with his cavalry.
..Some miles from the waterworks
the road crosses g deep nullah, or sprult,
in which during the night force OF
Beers had concealed themselves. So
we'll were they hidden that our leading
scouts passed over the drift without dis
covering them aud ii was not until tie
wagons and guns were entering the drift
thar the Beers showed themselves and
oDened fire. Many of the drivers of the
artillery horses We're Immediately shot
down at short range and several of the
guns were captured. The remainder
ralloped away covered by Roberts horse,
which suffered heavily.
Meanwhile Lieutenant Chester Mas
ters Of Ramington'S scouts found a pas
sage across the Sprylie lnorcupied by the
enemy. by which the remainder Of the
Broa&wo0d forces crossed. They re-
formed with great ste2diness and gal
lopad away.
..Broadwood' 5 report, which has just
reached ne, contains no details, but
states that he he'd lost seven guns and
all his baggage. lie estimated all his
casualties ac aborv $50, including 200
missing.
..On hearing that Broadwood was lard
pressed I ordered General French, with
the two remaining cavalry brigades, to
follow in support Of the Ninth division.
The latter, after a magnificent march,
arrived on the scene Of action shortly af
ter O'Clock.
"Broadwoods S forces consisted Of the
Roval Household cavalry, the Tenth

and Pitchers battalion Of mounted in
fantry.
s.The enemy is estimated at from 5000
to 10000, with guns, the number OF
which is not vet reported.
The rumorS Of the recapture by the
British of the seven guns taken from
Colonel Broadwood's force, based on a
dispatch from Bloemfontein, fails to
compensate London for the severe shock
experienced by the hu1niliating defeat

Christmas. Men are ever at loss
when the confusion of shopping time
presents itself, 4and. knowing this. the
aforesaid young lady, with most con-
siderate intent. mildly suggested that
he drop by the antiquity store on
CRANKY street and purchase for her,

tiers. Charmed with the Shift of re-
sponsibillty. the young man gleefully
proceeded on his way the next day to
BUY the platter. Asking the price, the
answer came, Thirty dollars! He
walked away. wondering why statesmen
should be SO stupid as not to under
stand which price of ware was indi-
Gated by a wave Of the hand; so. at
lunch that day, he requested his sister
to stop by and price it. Still, thirty
dollars! The young lady in question
CHANGED by the store the same day
: and decided that she would price the
covered platter. Thirty dollars,
Miss! There was slight change of
color as she hurried from the store,
and the confusion of both parties has
not yet found solution when this goes
