SHAKE TO BE RESTORED
British War otnes Rsviyss Historic
Old Asaddress In the
Service.

The war once has at last definitely
decided to adopt the shake for the full
dress ~hsadgsar of infantry of the line
In place Of the heavy and clumsy he'll
met.
The pattern to be adopted differs
slightly from that worn for SO many
years by our infantry and will be
much lower In the crown, approximate
Ing more to the kept of the French
Infantry. 3
The new headdress is extremely
light to wear and will be of = uniform
pattern throughout the service. It
will be worn only By the infantry and
the royal artillery. The royal sngi-
neers, the g my service corps, the roy
al army medical corps and other
branches Of the service will continue
to wear tina helmet until the new pat
tern can be provided for them.
The white helmet is also to b re-
tanned for the Indian service, and for
the present the khaki helmet for the
colonial service Is not to be discarded.
Some new shakos are already man.
ufactured, and 1t is proposed to send
4 soldier wearing one OF them to
Buckingham palace In order that 1t
may be examined by tho king, who
will have the opportunity OF compar-
Ing It with the present pattern he'll
met.
Large numbers OF the new shake are
to be manufactured Immediately. and
1t Is hoped that tho whole OF the IN
fantry at home may be equipped with
them not later than the end OF next
year.
It will not be necessary to apply to
parliament for a supplem sntary ssti-
mate for the Issue Of the shake, since
the var once + . funds in hand out
Of which the cot can be met.
No decision has been arrived at yet
as to the troops which shall first re-
ceive the new h%saddrsss, but \ begin
ming will probably be made with those
ut Aldershot, and not IN Ireland, rs
has been announced.
It Is proposed that only this royal
regiments shall wear a plume with the
shake, though Of course the plumes
worn by the Scottish regiments that
now have this head dress will not be
lnterfered with.-Pall Mall Gazette.

RESERVED FOR THE EMPEROR
Fish OF Remarkable Delioaoy Had
Place Only en- the Tables Of
shs Highest,

Now that China Is a republic It
would be interesting to know what
has become Of the sacred fish which
In the days Of the empire could be
eaten only by the emperor OF China
and his folk and the emperor of Rus
sia and his folk. :
This fish Is An exquisite delicacy
so delicious and rere that It has been
reserved for royal pslates from time
lmmemorial. The fishermen whose
duty II was to take 1t from the only
stream In which It has been known to
exist-a small river lying between
Russian and Chinese domains-have
! had orders to let one Of 1t be d.
verified from Its noble destiny. Wheth-
sr the fishermen themselves ever
yielded to what one can imagine as
an overmastering passion and IN
1ulged in a secret midnight rcpast Of
the glorious little fish OF course none
can say. But certain 1t is that the Or
binary Chinaman would have turned
yb~udderingly away from a banquet In
which the prohibited Ash was an item,
40 matter how his mouth watered for
the dainty.
One OF tho things which makes the
ash such a rarity Ia that It breeds only
one At a time, a very extraordinary
condition among fishes.
The Chinese-the mobiles. at least
have been a nation Of %epioures, and
there are no greater d~elicacies to be
,ound anywhere than those which ap-
peared on the tables OF the emperor
and his oourtiers.

NEGLECT OF THE FARMERS
Record Of Recent Democratic Con-
sress Was HurtfuI to the AorI-
cultural interests.

Democratic government does not
benefit the farmer. The record Of the
Democratic majority of the house dur
ing the second session of the Sixty
second congress proves this in more
ways than one.
During the past summer the field
work in agricultural education all
over the country was completely de-
moralized. The Democratic house
failed to pass the appropriation bill in
time to meet the needs for the work
and many local institutions and COM
munities that had sought aid were Sc
riously embarrassed.
The activities In behalf of farmers
Institutes were interrupted because
the leader in charge of the work had
to be recalled, owing to lack of funds.
Every state and territorial expert
ment station In the country felt the
serious effects of Democratic neglect
There are sixty-five of these stations,
where 1,60O persons are regularly em-
ployed. in addition to numerous labor
ers and other help. Summer is the
busy season for the experiment sta
tions and failure to receive the neces-
sary funds not only seriously ham,
pered the work. but in not few
cases necessitated postponement or
modification of Investigations. Numer
GUS plans at the stations awaited the
annual inspection, which could not be
made without funds and must be put
back until next year.
Owing to the Democratic delay, the
dana ri ment of agriculture was COM
PEELED to discontinue field work in
connection with soil surveys. The
potash and fertilizer investigations
were also suspended for lack of
funds.
