Khaki Uniforms Have
Been in Use Since 1857

What is the origin of khaki? To
whom are we indebted for 1t?
1t was first adopted in British
India, in 1S4S, by Sir Henery Burnett
Lumsden, who had been asked to
equip a corps of guides to collect
intelligence and to conduct an Eng
lish force on the northwestern from
tier of India. The cloth used was a
light cotton drill. as suited the ell
mate of Hindustan. and took its
name from a native Tern Term Ia lgnaqe hnun
dusty" being derived from KHAKI,
or dust. Thus the term applied TO
the color of the cloth rather tnan 10
the material, says the Popular SGienSe nee
dictionary tells us 1T is pronounced
keykee by the natives, the Engllsn
have given it to us as kharkee, and
this is the correct pronunciation. .
Having been approved; the use OF OF
the cloth spread from the guides to
others in the Indian army, and 1t
was worn in the Sepoy Mutiny in
1857 by the English troops. In the
Boer War, 1S99-1902. Khaki was
adopted in the British service for an
active service uniform, and so worn
by all English and colonial troops
in Africa. But as cotton was not
ianders, uniforms of the same kind
were made of serge, and the term
khaki thus included woolen as well
as cotton fabrics. Because 1T was
well fitted for the climate Of Cuba
chose khaki for the soldiers uniform
during the Spanish-American War.

sible because of the cloudy day and

YORK FANS
ARE In GLOOM:
HERZOG is OUT

New York, Sept. 3.-The deep
pail OF gloom that has caused many
heart fears in the ranks of the
Giants rooters is again permeatlng
the camp of the McGraw clan. The
injury to Buck" Herzog, field cap
tain of the Giants, has caused a
wave of pessimism to sweep through
the loyal band of New Workers.. who
see nothing but the Giants as one of
the competing teams in the world S
series.
They fear the injury to Buck"
the pivot of the 100000 infield, will
throw the smooth-running McGraw
machinery out of gear.
And the Philadelphia bugaboo,
even though it is nine and a half
laps to the rear, will not down,
The loyal rooters" dread the con-
flicts with the Phillies beginning
Wednesday.
Six combats will be fought in three
days. 1t will be "do or die" with
the Quaker City lads. An even break
with the Giants and the Phillies
might just as well give up any
visions of competing in the world's
series this year.
Some Figuring
The mathematical experts point
out that to capture the bunting the
Giants need only win three-fifths of
their remaining games or twenty
one of the thirty five, while the Phil
lies can win five-sixths of thei re-
naming games or thirty of the
thirty-six. The standing of the clubs,
if this prediction is correct would
be:

WEST END WINS FIRST GAME FROM CAPTURES PENNAN
.WELEYS 3 CORNER

ers about the condition of the bail
in recent games has made 1t neces-
sary to play two hours or more.
President johnson said he would en-
force the rule against discoloration
of the ball. but he has given out no
bulletin on the "shine ball."
Reb Russell. of the White Sox, was
the only pitcher of that name in
the big show three years ago, but
since that time three others have
broken in, making a total of four
pitchers named Russell now under
contract with major league clubs.
Allen Russell, of the Yankees, is the
only one well known outside of the
Rebel" but Brooklyn has a young
pitcher named Russell and Connie
Mack has also picked up youngster
of that name.
Secretary Daniels, of the navy, Is
in favor of an Army and Navy foot
ball game for the benefit of the Red
Cross this fall. Previously, Secre-
tary Baker, of the War Department,
ruled against the game as far as
West Point was concerned. but ex-
pressed himself favorable to a small
football schedule for the soldiers.
Whether Secretary Daniels wishes
will have any weight with his col
league in the Cabinet remains to be
seen. Mr.. Baker thought the game
would be too distracting for the ca
diets in view of the strenuous mill
tary training they are going through
to equip them for the field as soon
as possible.

the Giants need only play at 500
per cent. gait while the Phillies
must go at an .S33 clip. When it
is figured out the Giants are now
going at .647 speed while the Phil
lies are hammering along at .56S
stride it can readily be seen that
there is little cause for worry in
New York.
Although the White Sox increased
the gap between them and the Red
Sox from two to three and a half
games during the last week the
loyal rooters" from the Hub city
have not given up the ship.
They point out that the Chicago
team has played seven more games
than the worlds champions. The
teams have suffered the same num-
Der OF defeats, forty-seven.
The Red Sox can even up the ad-
vantage by winning those seven
games. Chicago still has twenty
four games to play, Boston, thirty
one.
1t is too early to delve into the
mathematical situation in the Amer
lean League. Chicago is going
strong, and more than holding its
own. But the Red Sox have a long
string of games at home and they
are virtually invincible in their own
bailiwick.
This weeks schedule favors the
Red Sox. They play the Yankees
and Athletics, while the White Sox
combat with the Tigers, Browns and
Indians.
