A nrnrrnrxa FEATURE.

WhateYef may De sAlu VI Lue EuCtlulP-
ment in general, and whatever criti-
cisms are to be made of the manage
ment it must be said that to-day's ex-
perience has redeemed it from being an
entire failure, and is worthy Of all the
good that can be said Of it. 1t was, in
fact, field day for the National Guard
OF West Virginia.
Although 1t rained very hard during
the night and early in the morning, it
afterwards cleared and one beautiful
day was given the men. Had the
weather dnring the first five days OF the
encampment permitted drills, the COM
mands would have been in splendid
shape. As 1t was they made an excel
lent appearance. The improvement is
marvellous when 1t is remembered that
the men had only two fair days in which
to drill. The large guard kept on all
the time and the many calls for details
for police and fatigue duty, owing also
to the weather, operated seriously
against the battalions.
The condition OF portion Of the
ground available prevented q brigade
review by Governor Fleming, as was
intended, SO each regiment was re-
viewed separately.
At2 p. m. the First regiment wns
formed and their appearance was a
credit to the State. Governor Fleming
was accompanied by the following
members and his staff: Brtgadter
General D. H. 0xley, adjutant general;
Brigadier General A. A. Franzheim,
commissary general; John Hooe
Russell, paymaster general and
Coils. j. 7. Bower, I. NJ. Jackson and
B. D. Gibson, aids-de-camp. Brigadier
General Spilman, commanding the first
brigade, was attended by the following
staff: Lieutenant Colonel Clarence L.
Smith, adjutant general; Major X. FL.
D. willis, brigade inspector; Major
]. @. Gluck, brigade quartermaster;
Major A. ]. Bandy, commissary; Lieu
tenant Colonel c. b. Blubaugh, medical
director; Major Thomas Petigrew, sig;
nal officer, and Capts. r. p. Camden and
p. D. Neal, aids-de-camp. These two
stats united and rode around the lines
OF the regiments, which afterwards
passed in review.
A cREDITABLE DISPLAY.
The marching in review was particu-
larly creditable. When the companies
passed the reviewing stand every man
braced himself and scarcely a line
wayered. As company after company
marched each received share OF ap-
plause from the numerous spectators
At least 1000 people visited the camp
to-day, and their presence seemed to
have most beneficial effect upon the
men. To-day showed the men what
pleasure they would have derived every
day had they been blessed with good
weather. 1t is to be hoped that the
men will not be discouraged by the dis
comforts they were called upon to en-
dure.
Capt. Gregory Barrett and Lieutenant
L. S. Avis, U. S. A., are deserving OF es-
pecial mention, for their labors have
been ardaous, and the two regiments
to aman speak of them in terms ofhigh-
est praise. Companies A Of Ritchie 9.
H., @ of Grafton, Of Morgantown, and
K Of 0iarksburg, First regiment, and
companies D OF Renceverte and OF
Huntington, Second regiment, are de-
serving Of special praise. The Clarks-
burg company was very recently organ
lied and Is doing remarkably well.

RIOTING STRIKERS AT GLASGOW.
Police and Military Wound Number
Eyictions Stir Up Sympathy.

GLASGOW, Jan. Though the railroad
strike is practically ended, today was the
most exciting since it began. A large
force of policemen, backed by
hussars, were engaged in evicting
the strikers from the houses
belonging to the railroad companies.
There was no actual violence, but many
distressing scenes. Much suffering is in
store for the families of the strikers, who
now, more than ever, have the sympathy
of the public.
At Motherwell junction, point about
strikers and sympathizers made hostile
demonstration and refused to disperse
when ordered by the police, and began
throwing stones The sheriff read
the riot act, and squad of
police and military cleared the
streets. Six rioters were badly injured
by police batons, and this enraged their
comrades. They gathered around and at
tackled the station, wrecking the signal
boxes. Trains were run through without
stopping, because of volleys of stones.
Eventually the military hired blank cart
ridges and dlslodged the crowd.
At Blantire, where number Of evic-
tons recently were attempted, crowd
of miners sacked shop and the military
had TO be summoned.
More trouble is feared. There are signs
of further accessions TO the strikers from
the ranks of the men at work on the roads,
in the Motherwell district have suspended
work. They are largely responsible for to-
days riots.
Intense excitement prevails tonight, and
it is estimated there is a crowd OF &C, 600
persons on the streets.

ssThe Miners Oath Proves a Very

The audience that listened to the first
performance of 'The Miners OATH at
Cordray's was large, despite the heavy
rain. The scenery was most betting,
and when the curtain rose on the hrst

applause.
The most prominent character in the
play is that of the villain, Joe Briggs, who
was impersonated by Mr.. George Berry.
Mr.. Berry is strongest in roles of this
nature, and in this case his acting and get
up were highly realistic. He delineated
with marked hdelity the inveterate and

impressive character. and outlined
in telling manner the honest. Dure-

THE GREAT BATTLE.
All the World Is Looking To-
ward New Orleans.
DEMPSEY AND THE REFEREE.
will Fftxsimmons BE Able to Come to
weighte-Australian Money Will Ar
rive on the Next Steamer.

SAN FRAscrsco, Jan. Especial. THE
great event to take place on the 18th inst
at New Orleans, between Dempsey and
Fitzsimmons, is overshadowing every
other sport here. Every bit Of news re-
garding the two clever middle-weights cal
cuiated TO give the slightest tip on the
probable result of the meeting, is grasped
and read eagerly. In this city Dempsey's
stock is picking up. and it would not be
strange to see him selling at heavy odds.
The next Australian steamer to arrive here
viii probably bring considerable Fitzsim-
mons money.
Advices received here from Galveston
state that Jack Dempsey is hard at work
training. Z. f. Dodds, president of the
Galveston Athletic Club, has taken great
interest in Dempsey, and is doing all he
can for the champion. Local sporting
men are all worked up over the contest,
and it is expected that majority of the
club members will accompany Dempsey TO
New Orleans and back him to defeat the
New Zealander. Dempsey is confident of
winning, and claims that he has beaten
better pugilists than the New Zealand
champion.
Many sporting men believe that Fitz-
simmons will have considerable trouble in
reducing himself TO I54 pounds. His regu-
lar lighting weight in condition is l57
pounds. 1t is expected that the hard
work necessary for Fitzsimmons TO reduce
himself will weaken him. Dempsey can
hight. so he claims, at $50 pounds, and he
will have no trouble in reducing himself
to weight. If Dempsey defeats Fitzsim-
mons the Galveston Athletic Club will
tender him big reception.
Dempsey is put out over the fact that it
is reported that Jack McAuliffe, the light
weight champion, who is to second him, is
going to England. He claims that he
would sooner have McAuliffe behind him
in the ring than any other man in America
1t is reported that Jimmy Carroll and
Tommy Danforth will second Fitzsim-
mons.
Dempsey's principal anxiety is over the
referee. He is afraid that the Olympic
Club will select some one who, if he is not
at least partial to Fitzsimmons, may not
thoroughly understand the rules under
which they are TO hight. One of Dempsey's
admirers in New York has sent to
the Olympic Club, asking them
to select either Jere Dunn or
Frank Stevenson for referee, and
ii is expected that the Olympic Club man
agement may select either one or the other
Dempsey claims that Gus Tuthill, of New
York, who has been his hacker in many of
his important battles, has notined him
that he intends to bet from $500 to s., 600
on the result. and that he has other adj
mirers that will bet large sums, and he is
eager for Jere Dunn or Frank Stevenson to
be referee because he is aware they will
give decision without fear or favor
Dempsey viii stop in Galveston until a
week before the day appointed for the
fight.
