staff making changes In the uniforms of the
army. The provision for substituting as
collar ornaments the letters "U. S." for the
coat of arms will take effect June 1. 1905.

form for enlisted men will not be issued
until the corresponding articles of the older
pattern shall have been exhausted
The cap prescribed is intended for ha-
bitual wear in the garrison with the service
uniform. the campaign hats being objected
to by many officers on account OF the diff
1ficulty Of keeping them on their heads when
there is a wind blowing. There have been
many complaints of the necessity of men
raising their hands in ranks when wearing
a campaign hat, which. 1t is said; results In
unmilitary and ragged appearance of the
rank. The campaign hat Is retained for
wear on certain occasions. The wearing OF
the white uniform is made optional with
officers and enlisted men. The new order
makes the white uniform simply one for
of duty wear and forbids 1t being prescrtb-
ed for any occasion.
The new orders also forbid enlisted men
to have their clothing altered on account
of their tendency to make the clothing, es-
pecfally about the chest. of too tight a fit.
1t Is also prescribed that no decoration re-
ceived from foreign governments shall be
worn by officers and men while on duty
with United States troops, the law forbid
ding such wearing while not on duty. Re-
tired officers are authorized at their option
to wear the uniform in vogue upon their re-
tirement or the new uniform. Chaplains are
to wear plain Latin cross in lieu Of the
insignia of rank. A wooden Service uniform
Is prescribed for the United States and cot

There is nothing that is such a big loser
as switching suits. Unless the situation Is
very clear, go on with the suit. If an adj
versary holds the winning card he will
probably make it, whether you lead the
suit again or not, and every fresh opening
subjects your partner to danger.
Foster once took the thirty nine deals
published by "Cavendsh to illustrate the
advantages of the long-suit gar and care
fully analysed them, his plan being to open
every one of them with the shortest suit
and play for position and tenace, or for the
ruff, ignoring the long-suit theory. In COM
pairing the results with the published play
he found these facts: In three deals there
was no short suit; in eleven deals the short
suit game won more tricks; in ten deals
the short suit game lost more tricks; In two
deals it won or lost according to the play
of the adversaries, and In thirteen deals 1t
made no difference.
That any one would Intentionally revoke
almost passes belief A player must be
sharp, indeed to see that he can make
extra tricks by revoking even II he pays
the penalty for so doing, and the cases are
SO infreuuent where this could be done that
the generality of revokes must be set down
to inadvertence Now that player may
ask the question that will allow his partner
to place the card upon the table as ex-
posed and to substitute another In following
suit one great difficulty has been overcome
The burden of the revoke will In future
rest upon both players.-New York Evening
