YANKEE UNIFORMS FOR

Car Liked Major GibsOn's Olive
Green Khaki Suit and Wants
Some Made TOR Him.

ST. PETERSBURG. Aug. 25.-The
attention of the military authorities
has been drawn to the service uniform
of the American army. and its qualities
of ~serviceability and invisibility are
greatly admired. At the conclusion of
the recent guard maneuvers ut Kras-
noye-Selo Emperor Nicholas summoned
Major Gibson in order to make a per-
sonal inspection of the olive green
khaki which the major was wearing,
saying that he had been watching it
for several days and had been struck
by its inconspicuousness at n compare
lively short distance, and he desired to
call the attention of Minister of War
Rudiger to the uniform.
Major Gibson later, at General Rudi-
gers invitation, called at the ministry
of war and showed the general suits
of infantry and cavalry uniforms. The
military authorities also are consider
ing American accoutermcntS, includ-
ing web cartridge belts and cavalry
saddles, with il view to their adoption.

Another Link Completed in Chain
Around World.

COPENHAGEN, Aug. 25.--Another
link III the great telegraphic chain
around the world has been completed
by the Great Northern Telegraph com
pany, and its Iceland cable will be
opened to public traffic Aug. 2T. For
the present communication over this
line is possible only with Seydisfjord,
on the east coast of Iceland, as the
land lines which the Iceland govern
ment Is building connecting Seydisf1ord
with all the main own and ending at
Reykjavsk, the capital, are yet uncom-
pleted.
The first section. 215 nautical miles,
was laid from the Shetland islands to
the Farce islands in ten days by the
cable steamer Cambria, and it was
then finally spliced. The first message
sent was from King Frederick greeting
his subjects on the distant islands, in
reply to which his majesty received an
address from the people of the Farce
islands to which 1872 signatures are at
tached. The last section, 32T nautical
miles, connects Thorshavn, the capital
of the Farce islands. with Sedyisfjord.

CullOl Ef E4NlING NE .
Sir:-You gave the excise board
a pointer a few evenings ago and
quoted a section of the law for their
guidance which is all right, and if en-
forced would require but one or two
examples, when the law would be re-
ligiously obeyed.
Now, to get right and give the dew
il his due, President Hoy is guided
by the city attorney, who treats his
duty SO lightly that he has got the
whole official force of the city break
ing laws. The contracts between the
school board and an alderman will
show that if the charter is consulted
it says any contract entered into by
IN alderman that shall be paid for
from the city treasury is void. 1t
doesn't say the contract can be valid
IL entered into by the school board
or any other branch of the city gov
eminent, but it says If paid from the
city treasury it is void. Now some
say we don't want the strict letter
of the law. Then we don't want the
law. An honest man wants the law
to the letter for all alike. 1t is the
rogue who doesn't want the strict
letter of the law. Now, MI. City
Attorney, read the law as it is for all
alike, or resign and give place to a
man who will not misconstrue the
law to suit clique or party. If the
laws are good, we want the benefit of
them. If they are bad, we want them
enforced so the effect a be seen
and the law changed. You, Mr.. At
torney, are not the maker of the
laws. Give them as they are when
inquiries are made and save your
reputation. Don't let people get the
idea that you are not giving a square
deal and don't think they are fools.
Most people can read nowadays, and
some of them think as well. 1t stands
every n in hand both to read and
think in these days of political bosses
and ring rule, and they will do so
more and more from this time on.

SECRETLY WED ELEVEN YEARS,
Red Bank Couple Kept Marriage
From the Pubic,

RED BANK, Aug. 25.-Jealonsv
or a colorado imitation of it-yes-
terday led to the disclosure of a mar
riage performed mor than eleven
years ago, when James Brown of the
Consolidated Gas Company, made
public the fact that he took to wife
Miss Elizabeth T. Reed on July II,
1895.
An unaccountable feature of the
secrecy-unless eagerness to inherit
money be the motive-is that the
husband has passed the half century
mark, and the wife is only five years
younger, yet the union was concealed
from everybody until yesterday be-
cause the uncle and aunt of the bride
objected to the match. 1t turns out
that Brown and Miss Reed were
married by the Rev. j. A. Owen, of
Elizabeth. They separated immedi-
ately, and showed no more interest
in each other than any ordinary
friends might display.
All through the eleven years fol-
lowing the ceremony the marriage
WIS kept SSCIel not Only lIOlH JHS uu-
Gle and aunt of the bride, but from
all their acquaintances. Brown re-
Gently got the idea that a man in Red
Bank was paying attention to his
wife-in ignorance of her matron-
hood, of course-and at last he deem
ed it his duty to warn the supposed
admirer that she was a married wo-
man. He was laughed at for his
pains.
why she's my wife" said Brown.
Again the other laughed, ~whereupon,
his wife being out of town, he obtain
ed proof of the marriage in another
way and made it public. Brown did
not explain the seemingly unaccount-
