High School Lads Looking Forward
to Cadet Appointments.
Orga nization of This Years School
Regiment to be Made Next Week.
Gossip About the Ca didates.

Perhaps one of the most interesting things
to the members of the Washington high
schools when the new year begins to-day
will be the organization of the now famous
High School Cadet regiment, which will
occur the first Monday after school be
gins, and the appointment of the young
men who will officer 1t the coming year
and try to outstrip the bright record of their
predecessors.
The military committee consists of DR..
Lane, Major Ross and his assistant, Col
Reichelderfer. and three gentlemen teach
ers. These VIII examine the various can
didates and the appointments VIII be made
according to their standing in studies, pro-
ficiency in drin, and military ability.
There W i'll be thirty six young men entitled
to wear the shoulder straps and the posi-
tions are all being diligently contested for
by host OF candidates and their friends
There isalwaysa greater amount ofrivalry
for the office Of captain than for the other
positions, and this year there viii be more
than ever, for one of the nine to be APP
pointed W ill have the double honor of W inning
the competitive drill" and thus gaining a
right to wear the beautiful ALLISON Nailor
prize medal
For the position OF colonel of the regi-
ment there are three candidates promi-
nently mentioned, these are Captains Auer,

not receive the appointment OF colonel Qy
lieutenant colonel, hc viii be major OF the
First. The others mentioned are Reg.

Lieut.. Molkau. F.'
1t is thought by many that Lieut.. Shiil-
ing. brother Of the famous captain of the
Mortons, will be n ajor of the Second Bat
TALON.
There are a number of aspirants for the
four captaincies at the Central School,
and there is great deal OF conjecture as
to who will be the lucky ones. 1t is
thought that three Will come from the
third year and one from the fourth year.
The third years that have been examined
by Major Ross are hard at work studying
tactics" for the examination about the
1st OF October.
Tue names of some of the aspira nts

There are also eight lieutenants, a bat.
TALON adiutaut, and several staff Officers

who are very much Interested.

When The Times reporter crossed Long
Bridge there was nothing to be seen but long
rows of fishermen on either side who raised,
shed perspiration upon, and lowered the
untouched bait with true sportsmanlke
patience.
AT the far end of the bridge a daughter
of Ham was starting toward Washington.
Her pace was that of n winter school boy
cutting tan bark" on the ice. She was
overcome by one of two thiDgs-heat or
liquor; presumably the latter The Times
reporter asked: ''' i'-

She stopped and held her hat to prevent

Harry's door There was nobody there TO
go, unless the men unuer the shrubbery
did the somnambulistic act.
Over al HeDry's the sound OF voices was
heard inside and II Sheriff Palmer had been

QUIET AT ONE PLACE.
At Joe's place, Just beyond, no noise was
heard and no response was made to the rap
on the door. In the adjoining shed on the
south a negro was busy disbursing sand
witches and culinary It'd bits TO race course
guests wholooked thirstier than they looked
hungry. A door that was even kept closed
communicated with the rear interior OF
Joe's place.
Macs was the last. He is on the very
eve of the track where the clatter of the
racing heofs daily relieves the necessity of
an orchestrian or a string band.
The front door was sealed as closely as
the door of time lock safe. A visit was
made to the rear of the grog shop. En-
route a gentleman of the ace of spades

DRUNKEN REDSKINS.
Money Paid by Agents at Once Spent
for Liquor.

ior Liquor
Tower, Mimi, Sept 22.-Disgraceful
scenes were enacted here after Lieut.. w A.
Mercer, the Indian agent, had distributed
an annuity of $3.50 to each Indian. man,
woman, and child, from sales of pine on
reservations. When the agent left town
to pay off Nett Lake Indians those here
began celebrating. The majority preferred
TO get drunk.
The law forbiddinS the sale of liquor to
Indians was ignored by the saloon-keepers
and the streets were soon filled with Reds
invarious stages ofintoXicatioD. Even boys
eight and ten years old went staggering
through the streets.
The Nett Lake Indians who received their
money yesterday made rush for the sa-
looms here as soon as Lieut.. Mercer left.
No pretense of refusing them liquor was
made by the saloon men, and as n result
the town is full of drunken Indians. men,
women and children. There has been no
serious trouble yet.
Government officers have eDdeavored to
convict the guilty liquor dealers, but al
though every resident OF the town knows
who they are, a conviction has never been
obtained.

with one of the issues but adhered to his
discrimination not to allow his or any other
persons effigy III appear on a coin of the

wEBSTER'S GREATEST THOUG HIT.

Rev. DR.. Muir Uses 1t as the Basis
OF a. Fine Sermon.
The Street BAPTIST Church was crowded
last evening to hear the discourse of the
pastor, Rev. ]. J. Muir, on Daniel webster's
greatest thought"
As fitting Introduction TO the subject
Rev. Mr.. Muir requested that hymn No.
2SS, "Show Pity. Lord; Oh, Lord Forgive.
Let a RepeDting Sinner Live" be sung by
the choir and congregation. This hymn
was a favorite with Mr.. Webster, he said,
and often during his last years and especially
during his last days he repeated 1T with
great feeling and soiemnity.
The Rev. pr. Muir took his text from
Paul 10 the Ronisrs- "a: :l2, $50 then every
one of us shall give an account Of himself
above"
What the account shalIbe and howweare
10 render it is the all-absorbing question
which is ever presenting itself TO the
Christian world. No better illustration
of what it should be or how it is TO be
rendered can be given" said Rev. DR..
Muir. ''thaD is told in the immortal words
OF the immortal Webster. Once at a
dinner party webster was asked by one OF
his friends what was the greatest thought
that ever occupied his mind. Without a
moments hesitation he answered, My
Individual responsibility to God
what greater thought than ms could
enter or stir the human mind? But, alas,
how we must Sh=dder when We think OF the
thousands who never. for moment, think
of or feel their individual responsibility
to God.
$50 what more becoming than that we
should be swayed by this greatest thought
of the greatest of American minds, who
when dying said | believe in God, for -Ie
makes Himself manifest in all things.
I'VE are not here on earth simply for
enjoyment" continued the speaker, 'but
for our obligations for something higher
ii is TO show our individual responsibility
TO God. Mr.. Webster said truly, religion
is the tie which binds man to the throne
of God and that a man without "A sense of
religious duty is living without a God
in Ills world. Some may think that
religion is not necessary and that it can
be ignored, but IL was not so with Mr..
Webster. He believed that no character
can be really grand withoutit.

Body of Mrs. Julia Purcell VIII Not
Lie In Potter's Field.
Through the efforts OF the Rev. j. W.
Gaines, the coiored pastor OF Little Zion
Church, the body OF Mrs. Julia Purcell,
tile colored woman who died suddenly while
assisting the sexton OF that church, viii not
be consigned TO the Potter's field.
MIR. Gaines has secured from various
charitable people contributions of money
and has engaged Undertaken Wise, Of
Twenty ninth and II streets. to give the
woman decent burial. The fsnount so far
secured, however, is not sufficient for the
purpose and Mr.. Gaines is hopeful that
others will give the balance needed and send
it direct to Mr.. Wise.
1t was thought that the woman was a
member of the Rev. Sandy AleNander's 8
church, but Mr.. Gaines was informed yes
terday by Mr.. Alexander that Mrs. Purcell
had years ago received her letter of dis
missai from his church.

Prof. HeiIman shows the Need of
Love in the Schools.
Prof Heilman, of the Indian Bureau, gave
an address at the Peoples Church yester-
day morning on the Mission of Childhood"
He said that the child is father of the
man. Hence the necessity of right train
ing. Our schools lack the element of love.
They are formed by the masculine mind
standing for light, for knowledge. They
aim to communicate facts and train the
memory To retain them. In word, the
present school system aims To tram tne
intellect.
The heart element. the mother element,
Is neglected. Women are indeed employed
as teachers, but there is no opportunity Tor
them to supply this lacking element be-
cause the system is planned by the male
mind from the point of view OF fitting
pupils for the struggle Of competition IN
life.
Examinations ask not how has the pupli
been bettered but what does he know. To
meet this struggle of competition bring
the mother element into the school man
agement as well as into state and ua-
tionai affairs.
