CUMBERLAND. Nd, November r.
The Masons of Cumberland realized the
ambition of years today when they dedi-
Gated their handsome new temple on the
site of old Fort Cumberland, which forS
was built during the French and Indian
war. While the actual cost of the tenn
pie with furnishings is about $4,000. with
donations and the economy exercised in
building, the building as it stands today
is valued at 100000. It is the finest of
it's kind in the state outside of Baltimore
The exercises began early this after
noon. The admission was by card only.
The members of the Grand Lodge of
Maryland came in special car over the

Buffalo 0vercoats Supplied to
Soldiers on Duty There.
WORN BY INDIAN FIGHTERS
Quartermaster General Recommends
Preservation of Stock on Hand.
IMPROVING TYPE OF HORSES
Efforts to Secure Better Mounts for
Army-Total Expenditures
for Supplies.

More than 1000 buffalo overcoats which
the government has preserved for the last
twenty years, the coats having been
worn by the troops during the Indian
campaigns in the northwes prior to
1891. are to be used by the soldiers in
Alaska. Last year nearly 800 Of the
garments were sold at an average price
OF $3i. but Quartermaster General Ale
shire of the army in his annual report,
just submitted to the Secretary of War,
recommends that no more be sold. be-
cause of the proposed use in Alaska The
coats were bought when buffalo were
plentiful in the west.
Gen. Aleshire says that the continued
efforts Of the officers at the remount sta
tions to interest the breeders of the
country in improving the type of horse
for the mounted service is beginning to
show in the better quality of some Of
the young horses offered. The interest
shown in the proposition of the Depart
stud service under an agreement Of sale
| to the government, he adds, has been par
! ticularly marked
Average Cost, $144.
The report shows that the average cost
of mounts for the army during the past
fiscal year was $144. ranging from $12J
for polo ponies to $500 for draft horses.
The prices paid were higher than the
previous year for cavalry and artillery
horses. draft horses and draft pack mules
less for riding mules and for young
horses for remounts.
The total expenditures of the quarter
masters department for all purposes dur
| ing the last fiscal year were s4.540.O 600 less
| than for 1911, and $1O,O43,OOO less than
for 1910. The total appropriations for the
past fiscal year amounted to $50, 29S, S23.
Saving Effected.
Gen. Aleshire estimates an annual saw
ing of about 10000 as a result of the
change in the methods of issuing blan-
kets to enlisted men. Instead of being
charged to the men on their clothing ac-
count, the blankets now become the prop
erty of the government, and are issued to
the men on memorandum receipt, being
turned in when they leave the service. AS
about 5000 men leave the service annu-
ally. their blankets being worth about
$S7, 800, it is figured that when the cost
of cleaning and renovating, depreciation
and unavoidable losses are deducted, the
government still will be $4,000 to the
good.
In the same way. Gen. Aleshire says,
there will be considerable savings on over
coat accounts.
