Improving the Army Musket.
Although the new Springfield musket i!
considered the best now used by an!
army, the ordnance officers are constant
ly striving to improve it or to produce ar
entirely new musket which will be supe
rior. The principal work of this nature
is being done along the lines of automatic
feed of the cartridges to the firing cham
Der and discharge of spent cartridges
therefrom. The work of developing sat
isfactory means of automatic firing not
only has In contemplation the production
of entirely new automatic or semi-auto
matte muskets but also the modification
of the present musket so as to make il
an efficient mi-autOmatic piece.
Against Compulsory Typhoid Vac
cination
The Secretary of War has disapproved
the recommendation of the surgeon gen.
eral of the army that all recruits receive
the anti-typhoid vaccination upon enlist
ment. Gen. Torney presented this propo-
sition to the War Department with the
idea of gradually immunizing the army
against typhoid. II the recruits were vac
cinated as they came into the service it
would not be long before the vast ma
jority of the enlisted force had received
this form of protection against the par
ticular disease At present vaccination
has been administered to volunteers
among the officers and enlisted men, and
it is estimated by the medical authorities
that about 5000 have received the treat
ment: 1t has not been considered ad-
visable to establish compulsory vaccina-
ton, and 1t Is now held by the Secretary
of War that until that is done in the
army 1t is not desirable to require re-
cruits to subject themselves to the anti
typhoid vaccination

Withdrawn From College Duty.
Several army officers have been re-

Extra Expense Of Retired Officers.

|
| OF the seventy EIGHT retired naval Of
icers on active duty number are to be
relieved in the near future, according tC
a plan under consideration by the Navy
| Department. This is due to the fact that
the number of officers available, especial
| ly for shore duty of a professional char
acter will increase during this year. Sta
tistics prepared by the paymaster general
of the navy show that the extra cost due
to retired officers on actiys duty January
| | amounted to $154.664, or 2-5 per cent OF
the total pay and allowances of all Of
fcers of the navy.

| Ill Effects of Swimming.
| Reports received from medical officers
! attached to the Atlantic feet call atten-
ton to some annoying effects of swim
ming, which Is one of the exercises freely
INDUCED in by men attached to the COM
mand while the feet was at Guantanamo.
A large number of acute ear diseases
| were admitted to the naval hospital ship
| for treatment. OF these cases at least
one-half of the number had swimming as
the direct causative factor. The symp-
toms promptly appeared after the swim
ming in the form OF slight deafness,
| followed after some hours by pains in
the ears. 1t is considered that very
simple preventive of this trouble can be
| effected by plugging the ears with nom
absorbent cotton.
