odd Co.tum. for Americans.

The latest thing in American military
uniforms is probably that adopted by
the Samoan national guard. which has
just been organized by Commandant
Tilley. The guard is Il regularly organ
lied military company of the United
States and is armed with Lee rifles.
The uniform consists of white singlcts.
blue lavalavas with red facings. red
sashes. red turbans and the usual cart
ridge box accoutrcmcnts.
The lavalava is II short skirt, which
in aboriginal times was made of ba-
mana leaves. but is now made of cot
ton cloth. The effect Is something like
II Highland kilt except that the skirt
Is shorter. The singler is a sort OF
doublet or waistcoat.
Almost the first service the Tutuiln
national guard was called on to per-
form was to arrest chief who had
destroyed the house and property OF
another Samoan because tire latter had
cooked anu eaten Il fish which. accord
ing to Samoan customs. was reserved
exclusively for the chiefs.

Smoke Wu,sance in London.

London has an ordinance aimed at
the suppression of the smoke nuisance
and apparently 1t is badly enforced.
The worlds metropolis has among its
many public societies one called the
Coal Smoke Abatement society. that,
under the leadership of Sir w. B.
Richmond. is endeavoring to bring
about a reform. The society is unable
to accomplish its purpose. 1t has to
deal. however, with number of self
governing yestries instead of one CEN
trail government. The Lancet has
now taken the matter in hand. and,
commenting upon the injury done to
, the peoples health by the smoke,
talks of "monstrous and brazen def
ance of the law" The effort in Lon
don is directed chiefly towards show
ing manufacturers that those few fac
tories which have adopted scientific
devices for the consumption of smoke
have not only conferred benefit on
the public. but have saved money for
themselves by utilizing the smoke.

SAYINGS and DOINdS
CaIvclfon's Fufure DanSer.

The leading article in the current
number of the National Geographic
Magazine is a discussion OF the CAL
weston catastrophe by Mr. w. J. Nc
Gee. former member of tho United
States Geological Survey. What he
says will not tend to reassure the peo-
pie OF Galveston in their brave work
of rebuilding the city on its old site.
Mr.. McGee brings scientific evidence
to show that the island on which Gal
weston Is located Is gradually sinking
beneath the waters of the gulf. All
that region Of the gulf coast, like the
New Jersey coast. is undergoing n
subsidence more marked than that
which has placed Hollands cultivated
fields thirty feet below tide level. The
present rate of coast subsistence in
Holland is about one foot in CEN
tury. That of the New Jersey coast
is estimated at two feet in the same
length of time. Mr.. MCGEE says the
geologic indications go to show that
the subsistence of the gulf coast Is
nearly as rapid as that in New Jersey
and is certainly not less than foot
in 4 century.
