Exultation of Success.
He stood by while the old man, with
uncertain pen. filed out blank for
Graves. and as the young man passed
him there was gleam of exultation
in his eyes. Before the old man could

Graves horses hoofs far down the

No More White Army Tents.

WASHINGTON, Oct 23.-The army
is now In possession Of khaki cloth
for uniforms which is proof against
sum- washing and perspiration, 50 far
as color goes. according to statement
In the annual report of Acting Quar-
termaster General Kimball. But the
cotton khaki dyed shirts have not
proved success, and some shirts are
being made for trial Of WOODEN mate
rals. For tropical use the army blan-
ket Is now being made much lighter
than the old standard. The white tents
have gone for all time, and khaki dyed
tentage is the rule in the army now.
No more tents will be purchased. Last
year $1,475,729 was spent for horses,
mules and wagons, and there were
shipped to the Philippines and China
4.SS1 cavalry horses. 4,337 horses for
mounted infantry, 252 artillery horses,
S,5lS draft mules and 7G5 pack mules.

REPORT ON ORDNANCE.
Admiral O'NeIl Thinks Limit Reach
cd In Biz Guns.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 23.-Increased
be- looked for from the use of heavier
proiectiles and the production of pow
ser possessing high ballistic qualities
rather than from an increase in the
weight and dimensions Of the guns
Themselves, says Rear Admiral Charles
O'Neil, chief of the naval bureau of
ordnance, in his annual report. The
latest types of guns are so large and 50
heavy, he says. that it Is inaIvisable to
make an increase in either respect and
the bureau now will coniine itself to
developing wcightier projectiles and
powder of greater energy.
Admiral O'Ntil believes that the ord
nance equipment of United States ma
val vessels is fully up to the highest
standard maintained abroad for YES
sells Of corresponding age and class and
says he knows Of no guns aloat or soon
to be put atloat equal in energy to those
manufacturing for the United States
navy.
In regard to smokclcss powder Adj
miral O'Ncil says there is no doubt
that the grade of this powder made to-
day is considerably superior to that Of
year ago, due to natural process of
development. not to inferiority in the
powder formerly manufactured. The
ordnance bureau considers the powder
question in a very satisfactory state
at the present time.
Admiral ONeil believes that the sub.
ject of submarine boats is being given
undue prominence.
