JANUARY 16 1908. the eve of congress for mas holidays that Roosevelt sent to the secretary of war a communication on the sub- Ject of horsemanship among army of- ficers, a subject very close to his heart. In the communication to Secretary Taft he said “l wish yon T was on ment of the adjourn the Christ President would take such meas- ures as may be necessary to bring to the attention of the military commit tees of the senate and house the de- sirabllity of legislation for the pur | pose of making Infantry captains mounted officers and for the establish. ment of as many remount depots as may Pe necessary to furnish remounts for the army Joth of these measures are essential to the improvement of horsemanship in the army.” Every cone knows what a good horse- | man the president himself is and how much he desires that the standards of FRENCH horse: should vies which and eflicl of the r officers land forces we the 28th of | er these mare wrote as follow Major General “My recel a : uring a t t of the riding ability o w fleld officers of our army r i ber of spired test w unhbeare in this be vers olde : lent hief of staff, Franklin Bell res i it os As ol A HIGH PRICED TITLE.

Nothing like the severe tests which are imposed in foreign ar mies are required in our own. Mr Roosevelt does not advocate imitation of European military regulations In this respect, but he does urge with vigor the general raising of standards in horsemanship, “The fleld officers of our army cannot be held exclusively responsible for the poor riding which has frequently observed among them.” he says, and he points out that the reason for the existence of poor horsemanship is found in part in the fac the quality of the horses used fn our does not equal that of for. and that inf officers y to practice riding where ns are been t that army eign mounts antry ’ 2 ’ nave no of unt they n : noe Acking lppines until a cavalry brigade was put in the field against the insurgents In the reorganization of the army undertaken not long since the fact wns recognized that the national guard of the try is c osed al most that in mt OUI wholly and infantry case of out urg | Miss the liked : Pittshur most popular mem be { the Thaw family Her marriage bout by her brother H he had a falling ut with the earl Just prior to the wed. dh ind refused to attend It The fa ther in-law of the countess Is the sixth Marquis of Hertford, one and pron of the Birt nobility, and her husband in the natural course of events will some day succes] to his father's title CALDWELL AND DRUCE CASE.
