SOLDIERS AND ATHLETICS.
Gen. Merriam Determined That Men
In His Command Shall Take
Physical Exercise.

Gen. Merriam. who commands the
military department of the Colorado,
is determined to compel the soldiers
of his command to be athletic. He says
that no men should be habitually ex-
cused from these exercises. but if con-
ditions require a guard TO be left in
barracks, and the cooks be allowed to
alternate from day to day. it will be
considered substantial compliance
with orders. 1t is assumed that every
commander of troop or company will
avoid having his company bearing and
exercises marred by awkward men
who have been habituaIly excused
through shortsighted kindness.
The development of individual ath-
letes is not primary object, and too
often absorbs time and attention to
the detriment of the service.

is kept at the highest standard of phys
ical training, including dexterity in
the use of arms and horses. will GER
