A Disappointed Bridegroom.

Heartbroken, footsore, weary and
apparently i'll, a dllapidated, seedy-
looking stranger who refused to give
his name or place CT residence is un-
dergoing treatment at the Lock Haven
almshouse. While nothing of his his
tory can be learned it is known that
six months ago he advertised himself
in a matrimonial paper as well to do,
owning a grocery store, and had
had money to spend. He wanted a
wife and prospective brides were re-
quested to address their letters to
Tampa, Florida. Among those who
responded, he says, was young Lock
Haven widow. Photographs were ex'
changed and they soon became engag
ed. A few days ago he made his
appearance there looking so mucf
more like '.hobo" than successful
merchant that the widow declined tc
receive him. Sad, detected and weary
he made application to the poor de
partment for relief, and is now whllInl
away his time at the almshouse.

The "Boys In Blue" to be Seen no More.

On New Years Day Uncle Sans
soldier boys will don new uniforms.
Every man on the army lists, from
the humblest teamster to General
Miles, will have to cut his clothes by
the general orders. Out-of-style coats
and trousers will be discarded, and
everything from shoes to campaign cap
will be on new pattern.
Campaign and dress uniforms will
not be revolutionized. They will be
improved. But the improvements are
so radical that when the army steps
out of its old chrysals into its new
garments it will be a sprucer and better
dressed army than at any time during
its history.
The general orders just issued are
the result of the work of boaId of
officers who have been at work on the
designs since last march. The necessity
of having uniforms suitable for the
varied climates of the United States,
and which can also be used in frgld
Alaska and the torrid Philippines, has
made many changes imperative.
The full dress coat for all officers
prescribed by the new regulations is a
double breasted frock of dark blue
cloth, with standing collar, the skirt to
hang from one-half to three quarters
the distance from the hip to the knee.
The difference of grade between of
fcers will be shown by insignia OF
cuffs and collar. The dress coat is a
single breasted sack.
For use in the tropics and for warm
weather a inge-breasted sack coat ol
white material, with standing collar
provided with two gold studs, is the
proper thing. The regulations merely
stipuate that "white material" is tc
be used, so that white duck OF flame
can be used, according to the taste o.
the wearer.
The service uniform for officers is
sack coat of wooden or cotton materla
of olive-drab color, with four pocket
covered with flaps, with trousers o
same colored material. The Goa
must fit close around the waist, Will
about the chest it must be loose
Trousers are close-httiug from th
knee to the shoe tops.
The enlisted men will wear single
breasted sack coat of dark blue cloth
buttoned with six buttons, and wit
shoulder loops. The collar ornamen
will be of yellow metal similar t
those of officers, but with the letter
''U ST. substituting the coat ofarm
The new dress trousers are Of SIX,
blue kersey, similar to those now worl
Then there is the service uniform
olive drab woolen or cotton goods.
The new overcoats are made full'
than the old ones and have somethir
of the raglan effect. For the men wh
serve in Alaska and on other CO.
stations there is provision for fur clot
ing most suited to the climate.

WASHINGTON.
From our Regular Correspondent.

from our Regular Correspondent.
Washington, August II, 1902.
Will Mr.. Roosevelt be called upon
to face deficit in the treasury before
he stands for reelection IN 1904, is
the serious question which officials of
the administration are asking them
selves and each other every day. AS
is well known, the deficit for the
month of July was $7,5o7,S76 but it
was confidently predicted that there
would be no deficit for August, for, it
was said, July was always a month in
which unusual expenses had to be
met. But the figures for this month
are not more encouraging. For the
first four days of the month the ex-
penses of the government exceeded
the receipts by $5s,437.62 and the
| officials OF the treasury admit that the
deficits for each succeeding month
are likely to show an increase. Many
of the expenditures authorized by the
recent Congress are, as vet hardly
under way and when the contractors
vouchers begin to come in there is
every likelihood that the discrepancy
between the receipts and expenses
will be even greater. While the enor-
nous surplus Of $93, 700, 900 may no
be wiped out during the current fsca
year, continuous deficits will necessl
tate the material reduction of the de
posts in national banks, reducing the
loanable funds of those banks and ef
fecting general business most serious

of ''water," have been wiped out o

resultant ''hard times" and the effec
on the hopes of the administrator
would be most disastrous. When tn

ment for August and September hav

contemporaries on the other SIDE ol
the chamber the chances of success
for the democratic party in 1904 will
be more than doubled
A most interesting statement, made
recently by Commissioner OF Pen
sions Ware is to the effect that during
the last session of Congress special
pension bills we're passed which added
1000 names to the pension rolls and
general legislation was enacted which
would eventually add 10000 names
to the already long list of pensioners.
1t has been the custom of pension
commissioners, for a number of years
past, to announce that each year had
witnessed the extreme limit in the
number of pensioners and that the
year following would see reduction
in the list. Such, however has not
been the case. AS the number be-
came reduced by deaths, Congress
promptly took steps to increase the
number of eligibles by new legislation
and now, thirty seven years after the
Gloss of the Civil war there are on the
rolls but 674 less than one million
pensioners. With the constant stream
of applications from veterans OF the
Spanish war and from the soldiers
who have seen duty in the Philippines
there is little promise Of relief for the
tax payers for many years to come.
The unfortunate fact that every pen
sion usually means a goodly number
of votes for the member of Congress
who is instrumental in securing II is
one of the deplorable factors which
have served to enlarge the pension
rolls beyond all reason.

No better evidence of the insin-
cerity of republican protestations of
an intention of reforming the tariff
and curtailing the power of the trusts
could be desired than is afforded by
the Republican Text Book. Although
over eighty pages are devoted to the
subject Of protection not one word is
said on the subject of revision of the
present schedules. On the other
hand, every effort is made to con-
vince the voter that protection is es-
sential to prosperity. No space is de-
voted to the subject of reciprocity
and the last speech of Mr.. Mckinley
is rigidly excluded. The doctrines he
enunciated at Buffalo have not proved
agreeable to the trust magnates, the
benehciaries of the protective policy
and other supporters of the republi-
can party and it would not do to in
clude in the Text Book anything Of
fenslve to those influential promoters
of republican interests. Representa-
tive Babcock is the author of the
Text Book but no word is to be found
therein in support of the principles he
so freely proclaimed early IN the last
session of Congress, to the effect
that it was criminal to maintain the
tariff schedules on goods which were
being sold to the foreigner for IS tC
40 per cent less than to tine Ameri
can consumer. 1t will be remem-
bered that Mr.. Babcock's constituent:
adopted resolution approving hi
utterances on the tariff question bu
doubtless Chairman Babcock's inter
course with eastern capitalists ha
convinced him of the error of his for
mer views. If his Wisconsin consti
tuents have been convinced SO sud
denly, no word to that effect ha
reached Washington.
