JEFFERSON GUARD UNIFORM.
at the Worlds Fair VIII BE an
Attractive One.

st. Louis, March 20.-Within a
month the officers of the jefferson
Guards expect that the members Of
the Worlds fair military forces will
be respondent in the new uniforms
that have been adopted by the police
committee of the exposition.
Two styles of uniforms have been
adopted by the committee and ordered.
The first is a dress uniform of blue
cloth, the other a fatigue uniform Of
regulation khaki. One thousand of the
first style have been ordered and 500 Of
the latter.
The first consignment of the fatigue
uniforms have been received, and as
the guard is daily being recruited to
greater numbers these will be given
out to the new recruits. A shipment
of the dress uniforms is expected to be
received soon. The police committee
has decided to arm the guards with a
side arm, consisting of a short sword,
patterned after those worn by the po-
lice Of continental cities.
The dress uniform adopted for the
Jefferson Guards is said to be a re-
splendent affair, with froggs, brass but
tons and other military trappings,
which will make of a Jefferson Guard
on parade a truly impressive figure.
Those who have seen the model say
that it will eclipse the dress uniform
worn by the Columbian Guards at Chi
cago.
