May Turn Convicts Loose.

Richmond, Va. Feb, 49,
The overcrowded and bad san
itary conditions existing in the
Virginia penitentiary may be
taken to the courts, if legisla-
ture does provide relief. Gov
Montague is in receipt of a
letter from one OF the best
known and ablest lawyers in
the State, in which the ques-
ton is seriously raised as to
whether, under habeas corpus
a convict could not be liberat-
ed from the present State pen
itentary.
1t is stated that an appeal
could be taken to either the
United States or State courts
under the constitutional pro-
vision against "cruel and UNI
usual punishment" and it is
argued that the change would
be sustained if the true con-
dition OF about HOO prisoners
crowded into 1872 cells were
brought to notice ofthe courts.

AS far as your correspon.

follows: Mr.. Burruss left his
home last Monday morning
for the purpose of going to
the grist mill, about three
miles distant, leaving his wife
who is about 20 years old, at
home alone. He had been
gone about half an hour when
an unknown man broke open
the dining room door and then
entered the chamber, where
Mrs. Burruss was engaged
with her household duties.
She knew nothing Of his pres
ence until he was within a few
feet of her. Upon seeing him
she attempted to make her es-
cape. but was seized by the
brute and hurled violently up.

sistance was in vain.
This done, he took hatch
ct, which he had brought with
him. and going to the bureau
where Mr.. Burruss usually
kept his money, burst open the
drawer. The brute took the
purse, containing some $o.s,
and proceeded to empty it of
the money.
Mrs. Burruss, who by this
time had somewhat recovered
from the shock. rushed at her
assailant, who at once pocket
ed the purse, drew his knife,
and ran at her. A struggle
ensued, in which she succeeded
in knocking the weapon from
his hand, but not before she
had received an ugly cash

He then dealt her a severe
blow, which ielled her to the
floor and rendered her un-
conscious. in which condition
she was found by her husband
upon his return home.

THE ARMY UNIFORM.

II is new thing to see the United
States Army striking out for itself IN
the matter of uniforms. As general
thing ii has been copyist. The early
continental uniform was in all but the
combination of colors, a French con-
ception: and the Napoleonic style IN
iiuenced the uniform worn in the war
OF 1879 For while, during the Kos
suth excitement, the Army wore "A
Hungarian hat; but the influence of
France continued strong and was seen
in the Mexican war service and Dragon
uniforms. At the outbreak of the civil
War France was the paramount mill
tary power of Europe and We even TOOK

French fashion in full dress and to
some extent in field dress. prevailed up
to the early seventies and then gave
way to the German. Helmet and shoul
der knot supplanted chapeau, KEPT and
epaulet. At the same time there was
an eruption of orders" on the Army
breast, medals of various societies be-
Ing worn after the fashion OF European
stars and crosses. This fashion still
prevails and is becoming bit ridicu-
lous.
When the war with Spain came on
with it's tour OF tropical service, the
Army borrowed the khaki uniform OF
the British Army In India. II was
good investment. We did not take the
British hat but got the clothes; and
they proved themselves comfortable II
hot weather and inconspicuous annie
dry vegetation. II was felt. however
that color which merges with any
kind OF vegetation would be- better. ~
the Army will soon be dressed in
kind OF olive drab. the trousers being
cut short at the knee and leggings OF
bound cloths substituted. The typica
American service hat will be retained
although its color may be made &c
match that OF the uniforms. Thus ar
rayed the Army will be distinctively
clad for perhaps the first time in III
history: II will H neither French. Ger.
man. Italian nor Russian. but Ameri'
can.
As to the full dress uniform, that will
remain about As II In. though why II
should be kept at all is n puzzle to lay

disciplined men TO impress the specta
tor without tr.cking the soldiers II
