Draga of Servia's purveyors, mostly
-milliners and dry goods people.

action in order to compel Servia to pay
their sovereign's dress and lingerie bills
After declaring that the nation inherits
all the murdered King and Queen left,
the Belgrade authorities offered several
Vienna firms 20 cents on the dollar, but
Paris dealers think themselves entitled
to be paid in full, as their transactions
we're on a strict commercial basis.
Later when King Peter offered Queen
Natalie her late sons furniture and
brio a-brac, it was argued that as
heiress she must also assume his
majesty's liabilities, but Natalie point
blank refused TO pay a cent for her
former "chamber-woman's land daugh-
ter-in-law's) fnery.

GUARDSMEN RECEIVE
THEIR KHAKI UNIFORMS
Infantry and Artillery Fitted Out
for Encampment.

Scenes OF unusual activity werc en-
acted in and about the National Guard
Armory, over Center Market. last night.
The much talked of khaki uniforms, for
which Gen. George H. Harries made
requsitIon about a month ago. were
issued TO the glardsmen. and instead of
sweltering for ten days at camp. they
will be as cool and comfortable as It Is
possible for a soldier to be.
Until July l the local militia was
known as "The District Of Columbia Ma
tionaI Guard" On that day a slight
change was made and the organization
is now known as the National Guard Of
the District OF Columbia" Previous TO
the new designation there we're several
commands known as Company A. Of the
First. Second, Third, Fourth, or Fifth
Battalions. and the same rule held good
with ether letters. There is no bat
talon designation whatever now.
The necessity of using the battalion
distinction was obviated by adding a
few more letters. Where the letters OF
the company used to stop at z or F,
they now run 10 NJ or y, and the com
mands are known as Company NJ. Sec
ond Regiment" or Company E. First
Regiment" according to the designa-
ton from headquarters.
The battery OF artillery was fitted out
with new uniforms also. Instead OF
having cross rifles for the collars, the
artillerymen were given cross cannon
of a bronze hue. The cross rifles are
of polished brass. The artillerymen' s
uniforms are a shade darker than the
infantry suit. Captain Marion issued
uniforms TO all the men in his comman md
who reported. and he. together with the
other company commanders, will be on
hand this evening and finish Quitting
the men.
SUPERINTENDENT Duvall was at the
armory this morning and Issued uni
forms to the company commanders who
were not on hand last night.

Overlooked a Detail.

A Long Island farmer came to
Brooklyn with his wife to do some
shopping the other day. On his way
back the thought came to him that he
had forgotten something. He took
out his notebook and went over each
item, checking it off, and saw that he
had made all the purchases he intend
ed. AS he drove on he could not put
aside the feeling that there was some
thing missing. He again took out his
notebook and rechecked every item,
but still found no mistake. He did
this several times, but could not rid
himself of the idea that he must have
forgotten something. When he
reached home and drove up to the
house his daughter came out to meet
him, and, with look Of surprise,
asked: why, papa, where is moth
er?"-Mail and Express.
