CHANGES IN ARMY UNIFORM.
Influence of Campaigns in Cuba and
the Philippines Apparent.
From the Washington Post


From the Washington Post
The new army and navy uniforms
awaken in the minds of many recoI1ec-
tons of the changes which the uni
form of the American soldier has I'M
dergone during the last 113 years of
of the English soldier, that worn by
the soldier of the republic is a sort of
history in cloth of national develop
ment.
During and after the Civil War the
clothing, caps and equipments of the
American Army were modelled much
after the French style. This was es-
peciaIly true of the rather unsightIy
low-crowned and rakish-looking Louis
Napoleon caps at that time worn by
the soldiers and officers of the French
Empire.
The black or gray Hancock SLOUGH
hat, which has since undergone many
notifications and is known under sew
eral other names, was an American
adaptation of the Mexican sombrero,
and was not seen in this country until
after the Mexican War. 1t proved so
handy and serviceable that ii has re-
NAMED a part of the army equipment
ever since, and has been adopted by
the English and German colonial
troops as a piece of headgear better
adapted TO tropical campaigning than
the pith helmet which the English in
vented for use In India.
In the new uniforms and equipments
three outside Influences are strikingiy
apparent. Somehow. II has long been
the custom IN this country 10 model
the uniforms after the pattern OF those

PLUCKY MARVIN HART
MAY QUIT THE GAME.
Fast Louisville Heavy Weight Bad
" Hurt by Gardner.

Fast Louisville Heavy Weight Bad
" Hurt by Gardner.
The fighting days of Marvin Hart
may be over. The injury. or rather
the renewal. of the damage done to his
hand in his fight with Gardner Wednes-
day night is of a more serious nature
than either the fighter or his friends
imagined, and it may mark the close
of his career as a great pugilist in the
ring.
Last January, while playfully wrest-
ling with friend at st. Matthews
Hart had his hand injured. but at that
time he paid no attention to it, be-
yond bathing the member in hot water
and using liniments. When he boxed
OBrien at Philadelphia, he took care
to use the hand as little as possible.
and when he did hit with it, it caused
him considerable pain.
Wednesday night Hart took care not
to use the hand till he was compelled
to, and in the eighth round it began
to pain him badly. At that time he
called the attention of his second to his
condition. Every time that he hit with
it and landed the pain was terrific, the
result being that he had to quit in the
twelfth round.
Many imagine that Hart quit rather
than take a whipping, but if those
persons saw the hand as it is at present
they would think otherwise. The dor
sal part is badly swollen, while the
broken bones protrude slightly above
the back of the hand, forcing the skin
outward. The wrist is swollen, and TO
all appearances the ligaments of the
muscles of the forearm are also af-
fected.
Hart had been advised to undergo an
operation and have the broken bones
taken out or reset, but refused to do
this. He will, however, consult two sur
geons with this matter in view. Should
Hart be compelled to have the bones
removed ii may mean the end of his
career in the ring, for the hand will
be materially weakened, as the pal
mar arch" will be more or less affected,
and the hand will not have the strength
of a normal one. At any rate, it will
be about a year before the Louisville
man will be, able to do any boxing at
all.
In speaking of his bout with Gardner,
Hart said: Were it not for the fact
that my hand gave out on me l would
certainly have won. Gardner did not
give me anywhere as heard fight as
Carter did. and if 1 ever have the OPP
portunity of meeting him again l will
certainly win. Since my return from
Philadelphia 1 have boxed but two
rounds, having been afraid to use my
hand. l saved it as much as possible,
so that it would be sound for my last
fight.
Il will not fight again for about
year, as 1 intend to give that hand
sufficient rest to enable it to heal"
When asked what he thought of
Gardner stating that he quit, Hart pro-
duced a telegram from Gardner which
read as follows:
"Emphatically deny accusing you of
quitting. You are game and you have
my sympathy. Hope your hand will
soon heal up"
Hart will have the hand examined
again, and skiagraph will probably
be made by the surgeons, so as to To-
cate the exact point of injury.

HOW LOVE LOST OUT.
Danny DOugherty OutpOinted the
Boy Who Held His own With Feltz.

Danny DOugherty OutpOinted the
Boy Who Held His own With FeItz.
The fact that Danny Dougherty out
pointed Tommy Love in Philadelphia
Friday night is interesting to the Sa-
vannah sports. Danny and Tommy
Feltz have met here, and Love and
Feltz have battled more than once.
Fridays fight is thus described by
the Philadelphia Record:
Danny Dougherty outpointed Tom
my Love in the wind-up at the Ariel
Athletic Club in a fast and interesting
contest that was replete with hard
punches and clever boxing. The men
were weighed in the ring, the beam be-
ing placed at 122 pounds and neither
moved it. showing that they were both
below the required weight. Dougherty
had a better color than Love and look
ed to be in better condition. Tommy
being pale and looking drawn and
rather weak.
Love had considerable advantage in
hight and reach over Dougherty. In
the first round Danny started to rush
matters, but he found Love very will
ing, and they mixed it up hard and
fast at the end of the round, neither
best of the first part of the second
round, but Danny more than made
good before the end of theNround.
Danny dazed Tom with a rap on
the jaw in the third, but shortly after
ward Love came back with a good
clean soak on the nose that made Dan
ny's eyes blink. Tom got in a couple
of good uppercuts in the fourth and
then followed a mix-up, which brought
the crowd to their feet.
Tommy opened the fifth with a hard,
straight left-hand punch. Danny re-
taliated with a punch on the head
which dropped Love like a, log. Tom
bounded to his feet in a second and
went at Danny for keeps. He sent
Danny staggering across the ring with
a hard punch on the jaw. They were
both fighting hard when the bell rang.
Danny started to rush matters in
the last round. Tom came back at
him hard and landed several body
punches. Dougherty smashed Love
hard one with his right, which dazed
Tom. He got himself together and,
rushing at Dougherty ran his nose
plump into Danny's fist. Then follow
ed a miX-up that was in favor of
Dougherty, and Love looked as if he
was getting tired as the bell rang"

power it is not surprising that the new
regulation uniforms. especially the
caps, adhere to the German model very
closely.
But the most interesting feature of
the new military dress and equipment
is the influence of the late war with
Spain on their form and shape. Many
years ago, when Great Britain began
to stretch forth her hands beyond the
seas and to acquire colony after coll
ony, it was not long before the infiu-
ence of the East Indians began to
manifest itself in the dress and habits
of her soldiery. Not only did her Off
GERS learn to eat curry, but they also
returned from India wearing khaki
suits, puttees, and other strange and
comfortable garments. the names of
which Englishmen had never heard be-
fore. AS a result it was not long be-
fore many new garments and weapons
were adopted and have since remained
part of the regulation outfit of the
British soldier. The same thing has
occurred in the case of the American
soldier.
During the Spanish American War
the officers who served in Cuba and
Porto Rico found the Cuban machete
a remarkably handy weapon. 1t was
the proper instrument in a close en-
gagement, serviceable as an implement
for clearing a path through a tropi
cal jungle, and and useful in cutting
up food of various kinds. Compared
with the clumsy American sword it
was ten times more adaptable to real
exigencies, and so it happens that the
new regulation army sword is imme-
diately suggestive even to a civilian,
of the machete.
To begin with, it has something of
of la
is not so long as the army sword.
Moreover, it is strikingly like the ma
chete in the form and make of the
handle, which is of horn, ribbed in such
a manner as to leave a sort of hollow
or depression for each of the fingers,
within a ridge in between. Thus ar
ranged, it offers a firm grip. and re-
moves the possibility of the hands
slipping. But although the machete
handle was thus digitated it was desti
tute of any handle guard, which is
present in the new regulation army
sword making what without doubt is
one of the handiest weapons of it's kind
imaginable.
On the other hand, the new navy
sword embodies an Oriental idea, gain
ed by our officers during the war in
the Philippines. The entire handle and
guard are copied bodily from the ORR
entail, sometimes called the Turkish,
scimitar a weapon found throughout
the Orient from Morocco to Luzon.
1t is difficult to understand what adj
vantage this change affords other than
in the handy device on the guard for
slipping over the sheath, a device
which appears in all scimitars, recent
as we'll as ancient. At all events, it is
an exceedingly handsome and snowy
weapon much more so, in fact than
the former naval sword, which re-
minded one somewhat of a secret So
ciety weapon.

TONY MORAN A BUTTER.

Tony Moran is once more charged
with using his head for something else
besides thinking. He is charged with
having butt Sinister in Philadelphia
Friday night.
The Philadelphia Record says:
In the semi-wind-up Jim Sinister of
Paramount met Tony Moran of Brook
Ign. They fought two hard rounds, and
it was about an even thing, when in
a mix-up Sinister dropped to the floor,
claiming to be fouled. The bout was
stopped for several minutes, when,
Sinister, being unable to continue, the
bout was declared off. 1t looked as if
in the rush Moran had butted Sinister,
but Tony claimed that he had punched
Jimmy in the stomach and had neither
butted Sinister nor hit him too low.

I,isuu'tting Dis cOvery in the south
Carolina state House.

Columbia, S. c., May 17.-An inves-
tigation of the presence of smoke III
the Attorney Generals Office yester-
CAV developed the startling fact that
the state capitol is infested with sew
err gas.
After the morning had been spent in
looking for the cause of the smoke,
it was discovered that plank in the
basement was. on fire having been ig-
nited by means of the combustion of
lime which had been sprinkled over
the old sewer main far down in the
basement of the building. The condi-
ton of affairs which was thus uncoV-
cred or made apparent was really more
alarming than if the entire state cap
itol had been on fire, for the lives of
its occupants are endangered by sewer
gas
All of the poisonous sewer gas from
the rotting mains in the basement was
escaping into the chimney which led
to the office of the Attorney General
and to the other offices on that side
of the first floor of the capitol.
Owing to the fact that of the eight
men who have been employed as
watchmen at the capitol in the last
thirteen years, five have died, one is
confirmed invalid and the two others
have suffered from intestinal feVers,
the state house officials were very
much alarmed by the condition of af-
fairs made apparent yesterday.
