CHINESE CLOTHING.

To wear your grandfather's coa;
would not seem much of an honor, but
to John Chinaman it is the greatest
felicity. Not only is the common-.cok-
ing. shapelcss blue blouse Of his az
cestor priced because tits lis ancestor 8.
but because of It's intrinsic value. The
clothing usually worn by the Chineso
is OF the purest silk, and costs anywhere
from SlO0 to $3.50 q suit.
AS a nation the Chinese object to
wearing clothing Of any other kind. and
centuries OF experiment have taught
them how best TO make up the costly
caterpillar thread into the most durable
form. On this account the Chinese
dress, though of purer material, has
none of the sheen usually associated
with silk, a popularity which has re-
suited in the rroneous ideas as TO their
composition. All the garments are
made in China, and are only exported

for the personal use OF celestials in for
eign countries.
Owing to their cost, however, they
are only purchased at long intervals,
each garment being OF so durable a
character that they are handed down
TO the third and even the fourth genera
ton. Wear appears to rather improve
them than otherwise, with the result
that the Goa Of the father or GRANDPA
Their often has more intrinsic value than
the newer and less worn articles. An
other article peculiar TO the Chinese is
the felt slippers they invariably wear.
These are of peculiar shape, and are also
imported from the native country,
where the method OF treating felt un-
ill IL almost rivals leather for wear is
kept n close secret. - Cincinnati En-

NEW ARMY FIELD GUN.
The Result of Experiments by the
Ordnance bureau.

A new field gun for the army has been
adopted by the Bureau of Ordnance, and
orders for two hundred will be placed
within a short time. One hundred of this
number will be given to ordnance firms in
the United States. and the remainder will
be manufactured at the Government ar
senal at Wateryliet.
The new gun is the result of consider
able experiment and investigation, and Is
really an improved 80 inch, of which
eighty-four are now in the service. !.

breech mechanism designed by John w
Stockett, craftsman Of the Ordnance
Bureau Instead Of being 80 inch 1t will
be only inches and will fire a projectile
weighing fifteen pounds. While the gun
viii have the EoE-recoil feature, il is to
be so constructed that the present service
carriage can be used. Speaking OF the
new gun, General Burlington said yester-
day:
THE Ordnance Department has watched
with interest the various experiments made
abroad. and has conducted similar expert
ments at its own proving grounds AS
result of these experiments it has deter
mined upon a gun and carriage for service
which will have the non-recoil feature, but
a carriage can be used like the present
service ones, These guns and carriages
can be manufactured in this country. and
can be supplied to the service much more
rapidly than any purchased abroad, and
will have the following characteristics:
Calibre Of gun. inches; length of piece.
80. 20 inches; weight OF gun, SOS pounds;

with the view of endorsing the platform OF
