his braves bearing Stabber with them, hit-
ting northward again toward the glorious
country beyond the "Chakadee," and on
went Webb. with Blake, Gregg, Ray and
such as might be wounded on the way; and.
later still, the old post surgeon reached the
Elk with guards and hospital attendants,
and on the morrow began his homeward
march with the dead and wounded-a sad
and solemn little procession.
Only twenty miles he had to CO. but 1t
took long hours, so few were the ambu-
lances, so rough the crossings Of the ra-
vines; and, not until near nightfall was the

day. Ordering forward all available troops

1t couldn't be a long campaign, perhaps,
with winter close at hand. but 1t would be
a lively one. OF that the chief felt well

Blue Facings for Army Uniforms.

The special army board on the new army
uniform had meeting at the War Depart
ment yesterday and decided in favor of the
use of blue facings for the uniforms instead
of white facings, as had been suggested.
The action of the board was based mainly
on the fact that many officers had gone to
the expense Of having their new uniforms
made with the blue facings, In conformity
with the original action Of the board, and 1t
was regarded that the work had gone too
far to Justify change simply to crafty a
taste in the matter of color. There Is a
strong sentiment in favor of white facings
in the army despite the action of the board,
and the matter will not be settled until
finally passed upon by the Secretary Of
War.
