REFORMS FOR SOLDIERS.
War Departments Action to Make
Service More AftroctiDe.

Washington. Oct. 3o.-Robert Shaw Oliver Acting
Secretary of the War Department. has determined
upon reforms In the army in order to make the
service more attractive for the enlisted man. Con-
gress Will be asked for more money for the men.
but the War Department will endeavor to correct
some conditions causing complaints by exertlng ek-
ecutive authority One OF the principal causes of
dissatisfaction has been the practice OF issuing
toilet necessities, prescribed by army regulations
ana taking the cost out of the enlisted mans first
months pay. This would 'set him back Sc to ST.
ana 1t is believed to be the reason why deserions
nave been numerous among men who have served
only month
An order was issued to-day by General Oliver
providing that the soldier shall receive his first
razor tooth brush, soap and similar articles with
out cost to him. but that thereafter he must keep
MS toilet kit supplied. The average annual enlist
ments are about twenty thousand men. but it is
estimated that the change will cost the government
only about $4,000 a year
Another reform will provide that the daily gym
nastlcs shall be thirty minutes instead OF an hour
ana mat the time shall be fixed other than i'm
medlately following drill duty. The weekly
Ihafches nave been ordered discontinued and here
only.
General Oliver intends also to limit the character
OF WORK that must be done around army posts by
enlisted men. At some of the large posts where
the grounds are extensive. these tasks have grown
up enormously. and the work is not all of a char
acter that should be done by soldiers To put an
emo 10 this will require appropriation In order
10 nave the work done by civilian labor
sun another recommendation will be in the
direction OF improving the ratlons. They are now
issued so generously that by good management the
COOKS make savings. and the company quarter
master is able to turn these over for butter and
ihiIk' which are not supplied to the soldiers by the
government General divers plan is to reduce the
supply OF rations 10 the actual needs and issue but
Ter and milk so that all companies will fare the
same.

THE HOME OF PRIDE.

I lived with Pride; the house was hung
With tapestries OF rich design.
OF many houses this among
Them all was richest. and twas mine.
But in the chambers burned no fire,
Tho all the furniture was gold;
I sickened OF fulfilled desire.
The House of Pride was very cold.
I lived with Love: all she possest
Was but tent beside stream
She warmed my cold hands in her breast
She wove around my sleep a dream
And One there was with face divine,
Who softly came, when day was spent,
And turned our water into wine,
And made our life a sacrament
