The War department is having much difficulty in convincing makers of the uniforms of the militia in regard to the insgnia which wearers of such ap- parel may employ. Numerous deci- sions have been rendered within the last year or two on this subject with out convincing those most interested or settling the question of style or 1decora- tion. The uniform for the militia is not prescribed by the War department, this being a matter which is wholly within the control of the state or ter ritorial authorities. There is no author ity of law, however, for placing the Limited States coat-of-arms on either caps or buttons, nor for the use of the letters ''U. S." or the national coat-of- arms on the coat collar.

There are in Germany 2,5OS co-operat- i've stores societies. having member ship of over 100000. The value of goods sold by them increased from 147OOO,0OO marks (marl1 2SS cerlts) in 1903, to 230,OOO0OO in 1905 The profits realized (which accrue to the benefit of the mernbers) were 100000 and 1S,OOO,- 900 marks, respectively, for the years mentioned.

Professor James D. Breasted, the Psychologist, who has lately returned to this country from Egypt, writes that the oldest fixed date in history is 4241 B. c. In that year, he says, the cal efider was established, the year begin ming on what would now be July 19. Consequently the calendar now in use was CLAY years old last month.

There were just two issues in the campaign, says the Savannah News, of the recent primary contest in Georgia, namely, negro disfranchisement and the reduction of railroad rates, There is strong sentiment against permit ting the negro to have the ballot, even though white supremacy Is assured by the white primary and the cumulative poll tax. And there is good deal of feeling against the railroads because of alleged discr.minations and arbitrary acts. This feeling was tower of strength to the winning candidate"

scene of the wreck this morning carry
ing among others three divers who
came down to relieve the men who had
been working increasingly through the
night to recover the bodies Of those who
had persisted in the railway disaster at
Thoroughfare last evening.
The efforts Of the new men resulted in
the bringing to the surface of three
more bodies within a few hours. These
were taken to the temporary morgue,
whert they were laid out and tagged
with numbers while a crowd surged
around the doors anxious to get in and
view the bodies. All told 81 dead lay
in the irnproViSed mOrgue and at 10
o'clock wretched and suffering per-
sons seeking lost ones were permitted
to enter the chamber of death. Most
heart rending were the scenes and men
who had worked with strong arms and
hearts to bring the bodies from beneath
the waters in the Thoroughfare were
moved to tears.
Among the most pathetic cases was
that of Samuel McElroy of Philadelphia
who after a sleepless night, found his
family wiped out by the disaster, his
wife and five year. old boy missing

Identification asked for his address the

of the Pennsylvania railroad said this
afternoon;
Il do not believe that Stewart the
bridge tender, said anything like what
has been attributed TO him regarding
the lacking up or alignment of the
rails. 1t is not fact that when the
draw is swung the rails have to be re-
set. This drawbridge is of the latest
improved type. We have nothing to
conceal. We don't know what caused
the wreck and I don't think we can
know until we have seen the trucks OF
the derailed cars.
When asked the direct question as
to his idea of the cause Of the wreck
Mr. Atterbury said.
Perhaps a broken hange or some
part of the cars gear gave way"

FOR A RESERVE FORCE.
Renewal of a Discussion for 1t in
Army Circles.

Leavenworth Kas, Oct 29-In the
army there is a renewal of the discus
sion of the organization Of the national
reserve force, the troops Of which will be
fitted for local service in the various
states in which they are raised. This or
military force. BY this means it would
be possible, 1t is held, to furnish body
of infantry which would be ready for
amalgamation with the regular force and
to man the sea coast batteries in the time
Of war. OF course, there would have to
be preliminary practice and instruction,
such as was afforded the militia at the
camps of instruction this summer. The
principal advantage would be IN thus pos
SeSSing a force which would be in readi-
ing special legislation and the confusion
which occurs just prior to war in the
effort to secure extra troops. The general
staff has a plan for such a reserve force,
which IS considered too expensive even
as an investment for security In time of
teers viii probably. engage the attention
OF the experts without legislative relief
for some time to come
Officers of the artillery corps do not
take kindly to the proposition that a ma
tional reserve force should be organized
with a view to furnishing enlisted men
for artillery posts in time of war. 1t Is
insisted by artilleTists that the corps
should be increased and that the pay OF
the enlisted men should be sufficient to
to perform the duties and are willing to
rs-enlist The force must be ample for
at least two reliefs. and it Is argued that
It Is out of the question to obtain this

that men cannot be picked up casually
upon such a source Of supply IS regarded
as inviting disaster.
