PROPOSED ARMY UNIFORMS
Board Recommends Shelving of the
Blue For Khaki Green Suits.

Board Recommends Shelving of the
Blue For Khaki Green Suits.
The army uniform board, which has
been in session In Washington for sew.
eral months and of which Major Cen
eral Hughes is president, has submit
ted its report to the secretary Of war.
says the New York Times.
No longer can the American army be
termed the "boys in bl1e." In future
they must be called the men in kha-
XII" for the famous and characteristic
blue field uniforms, If the recommen-
dations Of the board are adopted, will
be done away with except for "occa,
sions" dress.
For a field uniform the board has
designated suit Of khaki green color,
not by any means presenting beauti-
full appearance, but considered by
army officers as most serviceable. In
the summer and for hot climates this
uniform will be of light weight and in
the winter and cold climates e heavy
material.
The long blue overcoat worn for 30
many years by both officers and men
will be shelved. and long overcoat of
this same brownish green color will be
substituted. In the opinion Of the off,
GERS who constituted the board the
new color adopted will be most difficult
for an enemy to see on the field Of bat
tie. Its wearing qualities are also SUI
perior to the blue uniforms.
Many changes are also recommended
for full dress uniforms. The helmet
will be abandoned, and cap Of the
same shape as worn by Lieutenant
General Miles will be adopted This
cap Is modelled after that Of the Ital-
ian army. The shoulder knots are to
be greatly reduced In size and made
more ornamental. The sword carried
by officers will in the future be
weapon in every sense Of the word in
stead of a toy affair such as is now
used,

Spinach.

Spinach derives its name from the
Spanish monks, who first used it dur
ing fast days. 1t belongs to the beet
family and is generally served as a
vegetable, although it makes delicate
and appetizinS salad. In the spring,
when mint is fresh and green. a few
leaves added to the spinach will i'm
prove the flavor, whether it Is served
as a vegetable or salad.

One of Our exchanges, having
been asked by a young lady for a
sure remedy for warts, replied that
some people remove them by
witchcraft and others use caustic.
Probably the surest way Is to cut
them off with a cold chisel and a
nallet, smooth off with horse
shoer's rasp and finish off with a
pumtce stone and sandpaper. If
they come again drive them In with
a nail set and fill the holes with
flesh. colored putty.

John Gibson, the well-known mer-
chant and saw mill man of Bostwick,
was in the city Monday and had this
to say regarding the prospects of
farmers in his section. 1--WE have
plenty of land at Bostwick which is
equal, if not superior, to the potato
lands of Hastings. Many of our peo-
pie last year planted good crops of
Irish potatoes but the coming season
will see more than double the areage
planted that We had last spring. Our
people all feel good and are prosper
ing, but We are going into the potato
business on large scale and expect
to have lots of money this spring."

titles of lumber in car load lots to

EcIinSe of the Moon.

A total eclipse of the moon takes
place at midnight tonight and
will be visible in Florida. The
eclipse from beginning to end will
last more than two hours, totality
occurring at l2:lO o'clock Friday
morning. Such phenomena never
grow common or uninteresting, eX-
cept to sleepy quadrupeds, fowls and
reptiles, and even they show symp-
toms of enthusiasm, fear and Won
der when eclipses are prolonged and
pronounced. Eclipses of the moon
are just as interesting without a tel
escope as with it. If tonight is clear
the sight will be most interesting, as
the moon is full at the hour the
eclipse takes place.

Gen. Gordon Here.

Gen. John b. Gordon the great
Confederate leader spent Sunday
night and portion of Monday in the
city Ell route from Miami to Ocala
and Jacksonville, ut which places
he was to deliver lectures. During
mis- short stay in the city Gen. Cor
don found time to call on a few old
friends, and many people who saw
the old hero and recognized him in
troduced themselves.
He is one of the last of the great
southern leaders in the war between
the states, but his eye is undimmed
and his mental powers are still rs ac-
tive as when, in the height of his
power, he was leader in the United
States Senate.
Gen. Gordon was born in 1892, and
when the civil war broke out entered
the Confederate army as a captain of
infantry. He rose through the va
rious grades and in 1868 was major
general and corps commander. He
was commander of the second army
corps at Appomatox. He was
wounded eight times, and bears on
his face now an ugly scar by Union
minie-ball.
AT the close of the war Gen. Cor
don took conspicuous place among
the leaders of his state. He has
twice been governor and twice L. S.
Senator from Georgia, but resigned
his seat during his last term in that
body.
AS an orator he has few superiors,
and his lecture, 1.-The last Days of
the Confederacy," has been delivered
in all the principal cities of the
United States.

joyed his first vacation. His parish

orally will welcome his return.
