ASSrvERsARY CELEBRATION OF THE RICII-
MoSp BLUES.--Tliat timc-honored and re-
cently.rcjuvcnatcd volunteer company, the
Richmond Light Infantry Blues, celebrated
their cighty-third anniversary in dnte-beilum
style on yesterday. At about noon they ap-
prared on the streets clad in the new uni
form of the State of Virginia, and present
ed very creditable show in all respects.
Captain Imbodcn was in command. and
Lieutcnants jarvis, Robinson, and Blankin-
ship were also in the field.
After marching through the principal
streets, the company was finally halted ut the
Pump-House, where, after Il short intermis-
sion, the target-tiring took place. The best
marksman in the company proved to be pri-
vate Joseph Scaton, and Captain Imbodcn
himself made the best line shot. The homo
r;.ry members then tried their skill, and the
palm was awarded to McS>rs. Mark Tyndall
and j. j. Montague, ii being a dcbatable
question which Of these two nradc the best
shot.
Targct-iiring over, the company and in
yiteu guests were soon seated ut Il table
i,olmtitnlly and tastcfully spread by Mr.. :.
B. Petit in tic Water Works Park under the
shade Of the trees. Eatables and drinkablcS
were fully and satisfactorily discussed; after
which Captain lmboden called the diners to
order, and in Il brief and happy speech hade
the guests hearty welcome to the hOspi-
tality Of the Blues. He then presented the
medal to MIR. Scaton and Il badge to Mr..
Tyndall.
Mr.. Thomas L. Dudley, an honorary men,
Der, accepted the medal OH behalf Of MIR.
Seaton, and took occasion 10 relate some
interesting. "reminiscences OF the company
Among other things, he told how, forty Years
ago, he, Il raw recruit, had won this same
medal on these very grounds, and had also
Won prize plume at the same anniversary
celebration.
The regular toasts were then read. The
first was to the honorary members, and TO
this Mr.. Isaac J.. Cary, one oil the oldest on
| the list, made an appropriate and feeling re-
spouse. 10 "Our comrades Of other days I"
there was no formal response, the band play
ing patriotic cir.
Mayor Kelley was called up by toast to
"The city Of Richmond and its honored
representatives on this OCCASION" The Mayor
spoke with his usual tluency and animation.
! and his remarks were warmly applauded.
| In conclusion. he expressed his regretSat the
loss of the famous old Blues bowl, which was
DESTROYED in the spotSwood fire. They could
not bring the old bowl back, but they could
get anQther one like it. tie therefore pro-
