The New Artillery Corps.
Although the war department han not yet finally decided upon the insignia for the artillery corps, recommendations of a definite nature have been made by the quartermaster’s department. ■ It is proposed to have the enlisted men of the corps wear in the front of their forage caps crossed siege cannon of the most modern type. Enlisted men of the light artillery will wear on their caps the number of their company in silver figures, and the men of the heavy companies will wear the number of their company in gold figures. For the officers of the artillery corps it is recommended that a mounted field piece in gold be worn on the collar of the blouse. • —— One of the prerogatives of a Danish member of Parliament is free service at any Turkish bath establishment throughout the country.
