The an nouncement from the horse guards took the following remarkable form His majesty has been pleased to ap- prove of the discontinuance of breech- es, leggings and shoes as part of the clothing of the infantry soldiers and of blue gray cloth trousers and half boots being substituted" In order to indem- nifty the clothing colonels'' for any hardship which the new order might cause it was decided that these gentle men should no longer be called upon to provide the waistcoat of Tommy, but that Tommy should himself supply 1t out of his shilling day. To reas- sure him it was pointed out that he was in position to do so with com fort, because he would no longer have to buy gaiters-London Chronicle.

The First Gas Tubes.

William Murdoek Scottish mining engineer employed ill the Redruth mines, Cornwall, appears to have been the first to suggest that gas might be conveyed in tubes and used instead of lamps and candles. He made a very 1T lious gas lantern for himself, with w...ch he used to light his way over the Cornish moors at night. This Ian tern consisted of bag filled with gas and fitted with tube, at the end of which the gas could be lighted. Carry ing the bag under his arm, Murdock used to light his way home at night On meeting any one 1t is said that he wpu'" give the bag squeeze and thus send ut a long tongue of flame. This led to his being looked upon as the demon of the Cornish moors.-LondoL Telegraph.

Not satisfied with raising prices, they now want Germany to give them a better chancee than she does under her new tarif. The treaty with Germany provides for the admission of German hosiery into this country free, in return for the free admission of other commodities into Germany. As one cent is proposed to be added to the price of stockings, it is feared that the influx of German stockings will nentralize this advance, and perhaps defeat the advance alto gether.

CLOAK TRADE IS DULL
 ON SPRING MODELS

New York, May 23.-While retail pushing their light weight lines as vigorously as they know how, they have turned their attention to the coming fall season. It needs con- tinued warm, even hot weather, to improve the situation in ready made light weight and summer lines of suits, skirts and separate cloaks
 The buyers have loaded up with 1907 spring goods, and can do but little for fall in the way of placing orders other than initial sample or ders until their present stocks begin to thin out The man-tailored suits in broadcloths and other man. ufactured smooth-faced goods are getting larger share of business for the present season than any oth- or styles. Semi-fitted jackets in coverts and other staples are nov ing with some strength, as are also thin quarter cloaks. There is con- siderable cancellation going on in the trade, as retailers find their light weight season develop poor selling strength. Manufacturers declare that they have had no such unsatisfactory spring trade since 1893 and 1894. In planning for fall majority of the buyers are aI- ready favoring tailored suits, and in Jackets and semi-titted coats they are giving promise of taking. The cheaper lines of ready-made cloaks and suits will be placed before the trade at an early period as manu- lecturers believe on these goods they can secure prompt initial or ders. Navy blue now gives prom ise of being one of the most popu- lar colors for fall. Browns are also classed with leaders. The cutters up in any reordering of dress goods or cloakings. strongly favor these shades in all classes of fabrics.
