FIELD DAY AT THE BARRACKS,

At last the event of the season has come
passed and the cadets at the academy
have scored another point.
AS usual 1t was necessary to postpone
the field day one day on account OF the
weather, but nothing was lost by the
delay for everything on Tuesday seemed
to combine to make the exercises success
full. Our three colleges were present and
they showed their loyalty by wearing
their own colors and red AID white.
At a little after 1:30 things were made
ready for the first on the program: One
hundred yards dash, which was won by
Hall, time 10A seconds. He was followed
close by Ryus who proved to be winner in
the fifty yards dash, time seconds, Hall
being barred, having won the first.
Standing broad jump and hop, step and
Jump were won by Murray. he was the
best man in these two and in throwing
hammer, distance 80 feet. In the running
broad jump, Moore II. cleared the ground
a little over II feet and won. The four
wrestling matches were very interesting,
Ryus and Beaver (heavy weight) made a
strong contest. Beaver throwing Ryus
twice in three times and was declared
winner. Frazier downed Lingaman (mid-
die weight) in two bouts. In the light
weight Clark won from Hyner in three
downs and likewise Kenyon from Ed
wards (feather weight.)
7 There were six entries in the obstruc-
tion race and two heats of three each were
made. Yates and Hartley came through
the barrel first in their respective heats
and in running off the tie Yates came out
ahead.
The mile race run from Barracks to
Twentieth street, thence to South street
and then to College street, up to Central
College and down to the finish on Seven
teenth street, was made by Hall in 5A
minutes. Carr came in second followed
by Gordon.
The sack race was quite amusing and
elected considerable applause. Hyner
winner. George quitting the shot" a
distance OF AK feet. The shot used was a
twelve pound cannon ball. Gordon won
the potato race by a close contest. The
three legged race amused the spectators,
and was won by Falcon and Lingaman.
Exhibition acts on the horizontal bar
parallel bars and tumbling by the gym
nasium team werewolf executed by Ryus,
and Dameron. Each one was we'll APP
plauded by his admiring friends in the
several colleges.
Moore II. won the throwing base ball by
making q throw of something over sc
yards.
The tug OF war was an interesting con
test, there being ten picked men from
companies A and b under the direction OF
cadets Captains Murray and Moore III.
Company A proved to be the stronger and
pulled company b nearly across the line.
AT the pistol shot which was a signal to
stop pulllng was also signal for the boys
10 snow the appreciative crowd the first
position of O soldier
the thanks OF the cadets are due Judges
Aull, CrenshaW and Mehl who decided
every point with fairness and justice.
The cadets feel grateful to Prof. Cham
bers Tor the interest he has taken and the
way he has helped them in this their first
field day.

JAS Il. Payne, Esq Lexington, Mo.
DEAR SIR:-I have been writing to
President Baldwin, of g. B. & X. g., al
Burlington, Iowa, and have ascertained
enough from him to know that the lack
of bridge at Lexington keeps you and III
from getting the Burlington. l sent him
a clipping from your paper recently on
the bridge question, and in reply he says
'If, as you suggest, local parties build 9
bridge at Lexington, and matters are In
shape for US to extend our line into your
country, shall be very glad to take IL uI
and hope TO have the pleasure of per.
sonal acquaintance with you and youl
people," Why can we not have the
bridge? Yours truly,

WILL HAVE TELEPHONES.


A meeting was held at the council
chamber Wednesday afternoon for the
purpose of discussing propositions for q
telephone service for Lexington. The
following communication from one OF the
committee explains action taken and why
the proposition Of the Kansas q Missouri
Telephone Co. was accepted:
To the Editor of the IntellIgencer.
The Missouri and Kansas (Bell) Tele.
phone Co. proposed, on q list OF thirty
i've subscribers, at three dollars pei
month, for one year, to put In telephone
! in ninety days, with automatic switch
boards, and il the list could be increased
to sixty subscribers to put in central
station. They also agree, within sixty
days from the completion of our home
system, to extend the line to Mayview
and Odessa, and as soon as possible there
after extend the line to Kansas City to
connect with their system at that place
/ They also agree that on the sale of q
specified amount OF tickets, which are
transferable, and which can be used fol
the payment oil messages over the entire
system, to extend their line to Dover and
Waverly.
The Davis and Lander System proposed
to put In their telephones at one dollar
and nifty cents per month, which they
leXplaineu could not be used by more than
one person at q time, and that patrons
would have to wait their turn like the
old fashion of going to mill. They also
positively refused to extend their line 10
any other town without q guarantee of q
specified amount OF tickets sold before
commencement, and would give us nc
connection with Kansas City. Their time
for completion OF our city system wa
| six months.
\ The proposition OF the Brown Magnetic
i phone Co. was for one hundred subscrib
ers at two dollars per month or not les
than fifty at two dollars and fifty cent
| per month, the system to be established
/ within six months. They agreed to ex
/ tend to other towns named in the county
/ as soon as practicable, but could give M
/ promise as to time. They stated that they
\ were short in their orders for six Thousand
| phones, which gave a very poor prospec
4 Tor q system In Lexington at an earl,
| date. After free discussion of the thre,
propositions, the committee went int
executive session and decided to recon-
mend to the board Of trade and the citi
zens OF Lexington the Bell system as bes
and most practicable, as 1t gives us direc
connection with their entire system q
once, an advantage the others could no
promise positively. We think the com
mittee did their duty In recommending
/ the best system offered.
