IflSIGIIAOF SOLDIERS MABES OF EA.HK PRESCRIBED BY HEW EEGULATIONS. They Designate at a Glance the Stand ing and Branch of Military Service to Which the Men Belong. Although the general order prescrib ing the new uniform for the soldiers of the United States regular army was is sued a year ago last July and went into effect on the first of the year, the men one sees about the streets are still clad in the traditional blue. But that Is be cause there is 81 ill a supply of such cloth on hand and the government eco nomicr!!y determined to uee It up, says the New York' Commercial Advertiser. The enlisted men do not rt new suits until their old oiua are worn out In rrme months' time we will no longer ee the lads In armj blue. They will war the blue only on Cress occa sions; on service they will wear olive drab and on fatigue doty they will wear .brown cotton duck. On some occasions In troploil service they will wear a uni form c! "-'ilte cotton duck. ' The - -'r'.'s on the trourcrsof thenov commi ; !..!. ed officers are of the follow ing colorj: Cavalry, yellow; artillery, scarlet; infantry, light blue; engineers. scarlet piped, with white; ordnance, black plp'd with scarlet; post quarter master rcrgeanU, buff; the hospital corps,, maroon piped with white; the signal crrp-, orange. Sergeants' f tripes are one Inch wide. A corporal wears a stripe half an Inch wide. Musicians wear two stri-pos half an inch wide. Thus by the color one can tell the arm of the service in which the enlisted man serves and the stripe shows his rank. By the dress cap one can teil at a glance the regiment and the company, of the en listed man, also his arm. Thus the cav alryman wears crossed sabers; the ar tilleryman crossed cannon, the Infantry man crossed rifles, the engineer a ritstle. Ordnance men wear thesbtll and flsme, post commissary sergeants a crosr ent of white metal, electrician sergeants , a symbol, resembling forked lightning, hospital corps men a caduoeus, which Is the snnUe-entwIned; rod that Mercury carried. The men of the signal corps wear two crossed flags and a torch. Band musicians wear a lyre of white metal, while field muslcans of Infantry and the engineers and trumpeters of cavalry wear a bugle. There are many kinds of sergeants and many ranks. The chevrons on the sleeves tell what the bearer Is. The regimental sergeant major, for instance, wears three bars and an arc of three bars. ; The regimental quartermaster sergeant also has three bars, but they are Joined by three straight bars. The regimental commissary sergeant has the same Insignia with a crescent In the angle. Squadron cr battalion sergeant majors have three bars with an arc of two bars". The chipf musician wears a bugle in his chevron, so does the chief trumpeter. The drum major wears two embroidered crossed batons. In the ord nance department the shell and flame are borne. The hospital corps and the signal corps also bear the Insignia of their corps. First-class privates of en gineers wear a castle of red cloth piped with white, ; The chevrons of th sergeants of the line all have three bars. The first ser geant bearsa lozenge also, a quarter master sergeant a tie of one bar, a color sergeant a star, a stable sergeant of field artillery a horse's head. A corporal wears two bars and a lance corporal one bar. , A cook wears on his arm the insignia of a cook's cap, a farrier bears a horse shoe, a saddler a saddler's knife and a mechanic or artificer two crossed ham mers. A first-class gunner wears an in signia of scarlet cloth representing a cannon projectile. Besides these chevrons of rank there are chevrors for service and for service in war. The first is a diagonal half chev ron of cloth of the color of the man's corps. For service In war the men wear a diagonal half chevron of white cloth piped with the color of the arm of serv ice in which the man won the distinc tion. ; Men may wear as many of these chevrons as they earn. The general order which-prescribes the chanr of uniform goes Into the mi nutest def'lls regarding the dress of the officers end men of the United States army. When certain dreas must and must not be worn Is laid down In the reg ulation?. The very braids on the swords' hilts are subject to rules of po sition and tying. Brittle Robbers Klale .I.ftpd. While liquid air has not proven it self the wonderful power which It was claimed to be at the start, it has found Other fields in which its usefulness cannot be questioned, and, instead of driving machinery, it has come to oe used in the treatment of certain dis eases. It is still the stibject of a great deal of experiment in the laboratory, and has re.ently been used in conjunc tion with that new wonder, radium. serving to prove new theories ii re gard to the latter. The lay mind will, however, orobably be more interested in the action of liquid air on two sub stances much more common than ra dium, namely, lead and rubber. When the latter is immersed in iiquiu air it lesms its elasticity and becomes brittle, and if dropped to th floor breaks like glass. Drop a bl of lead into the liquid air and it acquires all the elas ticity which the rubber fca lost, and wjk bo ens on the floor like the rubber Administrator's Hotice of Final Set tlement.
