A recent canvass of the officers of the
cavalry at Fort Myer, Va, shows a
unanimous desire for the retention of the
pistol as part of the arms of the cavalry
soldier, as it has been since the reign of
Henry VIII, when the English cavalry
carried clumsy pistols called days The
opinion was expressed that the semi-au-
tomato colt, now issued to United States
cavalrymen, is the best pistol ever is
sued to troops.
AS to another point in controversy, the
stirrup to be used in field service. the
cavalry stood thirteen to five in favor of
the hooded stirrup. though practically
every officer uses the steel stirrup for
pleasure riding.
The field artillery officers were only
slightly in favor of the hooded stirrup.

not limited to any one section of the

Numerous cases of recklessnesS on the

More Accidents in Summer.

That this action will be all the more
greatly needed with the advent of sum
mer, when the crowds out of doors will
be greater, was pointed out today. That
the warm weather would bring out Of
doors thousands of children who have
been for months confined in the house;
that the traffic on the street cars will be
greatly increased by pleasure seekers,
and that the number of automobiles, car
riages and other vehicles will be greatly
increased was predicted today.
When it is taken into consideration
that during the winter months, when
large numbers of children were inside
nearly all the time, and practically all
traffic was limited to business pur-
poses, accidents were unusually numer-
Gus. 1t seems apparent that vigilance
on the part of all and constant OBJ
servance of. the laws alone can keep
the number of accidents at minimum.
