found well-equipped, bright-looking body
OF collegians, about $50 in number,
drawn up in line for his in

near the head of the lire the young Eton
Volunteers presented arms in a most SOL

smile with approval. As the lads brought
their rifles to the present the Eton school
band struck up the national anthem and
the crowds In the neighborhood cheered
most heartily.

morning air the young amateur soldiers
were put through the manual Of arms and
other exercises. The youngsters then
marched past the emperor, who sat on
horseback surrounded by his staff officers.

high praise, and evidently greatly
pleased the imperial guest Of
England. After the march past the Eton
Volunteers again formed in line, and at a
fired signal gave three ringing cheers for
the emperor, i'll which greetings they were
Joined by everybody present, among whom
were a crowd of Etonians of past and
present. The emperor was evidently much
pleased with this portion OF his days en-

When the cheering had subsided the em-
peror rode to the front Of the line, and,
bowing to the young volunteers, praised the
manner in which they had gone through
their drill, which, he said, was performed
very creditaby. The emperor added: ~
am very pleased with what have seen OF
you. If you are ever called upon TO draw
swords in earnest | hope you will do 80 in a
good cause and that you will show the
same pluck and spirit which has always dis
tinguished British soldiers" The emperor
afterward inspected the college building and
seemed to take much interest in the manner
in which the boys were housed, taught and
fed.
