have received the most thorough drill from,
most competent teachers. It now numbers

above.
Col Washburn is well known as the late
member Of Congress from Grant county, Wis
consin, aud formerly largely engaged in the
lumber trade. He is In every way well quail,
| fed for his present position, and to his exer
| tions in i great measure may the SUCCESS and
| tie perfect organization Of the Second Cavalry
| be attributed. He is member Of the ce1ebrat
ed Washburn family, one being the Governor
| Of Maine, and one 4 member OF Congress from
| this State.
Ieut. Colonel Stephens has for many year
| been professor Of small arms, and is th'
we'll known author Of manual Of the sword
He graduated in 1887, at Winsor Castle, ,Eas on
| Of the body guard Of Queen Victoria. H'
came to America in 1872, and gave instruction
| in the use OF his hyorite weapon In Philadel
phia. Lieut.. Colonel Stephens Is supposed tt
be one Of the most consummate swordsmel
in the world. If he teaches the sword exe1

OF time. The band and the members Of th
Milwaukee Light Infantry depart for the
home this morning having, it is to be hopet
enjoyed their visit to our city, and being full
prepared to make a good report Of their usag
from the raIlroad company and the citizens
