Late Nc tes From the Trades Dis
plaV,

At the close of the drilling last evening
by the respective companies, Miss lizzie
Waggener, in a neat speech and on behalf
of company B, presented Captain Rober-
deau with handsome silk umbrella, and
Miss Fannie Andrews, in another short but.
pleasant address and on behalf of com
pany A, presented Captain Landrum with.
beautiful gold-headed cane. The gal
Ian captains were taken by surprise, but
expressed their thanks in an appropriate
manner.
During the drill of company A,
there wns frequently 30 much
noise it was impossible for the,
ladies to hear the commands and they
made one or two blunders that, though
excusable under the circums tances, some
what marred an otherwise perfect exhibi-
ton. 1t is known, too that much of the.
noise, under the guise of applause, was
created Intentionally by would-be friends
of the rival company. Note-When the
youngsters are up to such tricks they
should be discreet enough not to boast of
it in the hearing of reporter.
In the voting for the popular com pany
the distinction was awarded to Company
A, which received 1,540 votes and Com pang
B 1907.
The silver card basket, the prize for
the most appropriate business represen--
tation, was awarded to Miss Fannie
Andrews, who represented the Equitable
Life Assurance society, through its gen.
eral agent, Mr.. Robert Gribble.
Owing to the inolement weather of last
night and upon the request of many who
were unable to attend, the exhibition will
be repeated Monday evening next at the
same place.

A RsvoIutionarY Horse Pistol.

CHESTER, ILL.,, April 26.-Mr. A. S.
Morse, of this city, has on exhibition
in his showcase a revolutionary relic
of more than ordinary interest. 1t is a
horse pistol, fourteen inches in length,
carries an ounce ball, Is of the flint
lock pattern and weighs nearly four
pounds. It is heavily bound with iron,
similar to the present army musket,
and is in state of perfect preservation.
This clumsy weapon was given to
its present owner by his father,
MIR. K. p. Morse, formerly of
Greenville, H., and it came to him
from some earlier member of the
Morse family, and the history of it, as
passed from one owner to the next. is
that the pistol was in active service
at the battle of Bunker Hill, and a
large nick, over an inch in length and
half inch deep, shows where the
blade of British dragon came in con-
tact with the stock of the pistol. and
| perhaps saved the life of a brave de-
| fender of our country. Perhaps the
next moment the old blunderbus rang
out amid the roar of battle and one
more riderless horse galloped away
and a red coat lay upon the ground
with deeper dye weltering througt
his bright uniform. Mr. Morse prizes
his war relic highly and would no.
part with it for a pretty sum.
