Of the line. however, was the cavalry from
Fort Myer. With the exception of yester-
days participation in the Gresham obse-
quies it was their first public appearance
in the city of Washington on parade. The
horses showed their unfamiliafity with the
city noises and became frightened at the
changing car bells, and but for the skill
full management Of their riders would have
become unmanageable. They were all fine
animals, about equally divided between
blacks and bays. with about six gray
horses in their midst. The band Of the

tingent, is a decided novelty in this vicin-
ity. 1t rendered excellent music on the
