Mr.. IRvINE's WORK.

The Excellent Manager of The Drill is
Almost Physically Wrecked.
Manager Irvine who has worked so
earnestly for the city for the past sew
eral months in Undertaking. this grand
drill, now that his arduous duties are
almost completed, has about collapsed
under the severe mental and physical
strain to which he has been subjected
and is hardly able to get about.
He has devoted his whole time al
most day and night since the drill was
first projected to effect a materializa-
ton of the plans and has succeeded
nobly and now deserves a rest. Dur
ing the drill he has hardly secured any
sleep and consequently it has almost
resulted in completely coliapsing him.
Out of the first seventy-two hours af-
ter the drill opened he only sccur-
ed eighteen hours sleep and until
Wednesday night he had only had

After the conclusion of the announce
ment of the successful contestants,
speeches were made. The first was by
Major General ;Smythe, commander of
the T. V. G., who spoke on THE It.
V. G. in its relation to the press" The
general made a short but very pleas
ing address, alluding to the fact that
the encampment of the militia had
been alluded to in the Legislature as
annual DRINKS. He hoped through
the aid of the press to be able to send
legislators to the capitol who could
better appreciate a citizen soldiery.
Continuing he said: LAS we only meet
once a year. if we should get on a
drunken spree, then 1 don't see but
what they should permit it, If we keep
sober the remainder of the time" He
also alluded to the good conduct Of the
boys since being in camp and closed by
complimenting the press on it's loyal
support to the citizen soldiery
The next address was on the "Reg-
ulars and the T. V. Co." by Capt. Gold
man, troop E, Fifth cavalry, U. S. A,
who was followed in the following or

THE DALLAS PROTEST.
Artillery Company Does net Enter the
Contest Drill

Artillery Company Does net Enter the
Contest Drill.
The members of the Dallas artillery
company refused to participate in the
contest drill yesterday afternoon be-
cause of the fact that Gen. Mabry
wanted them to put up a mounted
drill when they only wished to put up
a standing gun drill.
1.-THE Dallas artillery company refus-
ed to enter competition for the prizes
offered by the state in the state en-
campment, on the grounds that after
relying on the promises of the adjutant
general, W. H. Mabry, for new harness
which was not fulfilled, and as the
competition was confined to mounted
drills they were barred.
This battery was ordered to report
at the camp fully mounted and they
were forced to hire horses at an eX-
pense of over 100000 in addition to per-
sonal expenses all of which will
amount to over 100000 and after ar
irving could not drill or turn out on
reviews on account of having no har-
ness.
Capt. Blewett has filed a protest in
the matter.
1t appears that the company is in
the wrong, however, in the opinion of
military judges, as they say that a
battery when in the service should be
able to execute any kind of a drill.
Should they be called on: for active
service they would have to go into ac-
ton with their horses and consequently
would of necessity be compelled to
know how to get at it. Their stand
ing gun drill would be all right as an
exhibition, but not in actual service.

CROWD DISAPPOINTMENT.
But Today the Grand Review VIII
Positively Occur.

DuI AONhS thS Nidlu REVIEW w III
Positively Occur.
There was some complaint in the
grand stand yesterday afternoon be-
cause of the fact that the usual grand
review did not take place.
Manager Irvine states that it was not
intentional on the part of anyone con-
cerned, but merely from the fact that
the boys were ordered out for the sham
battle at the usual time for supper
and that after the battle they were
compelled to eat after which it was too
late for them to form for review. Even
If they had not stopped for supper
it would have been too late for the re-
view as that usually occurs at $50
and the battle was not concluded I'M
til Z.
The grand farewell review this eve
ming will be grand sight, however,
and will positively take place. The
state troops as they are formed will
serve as a frame in which will be the
commanders of the various companies
contestins. as the picture. When the
commanders are called forward the
sealed reports and awards of the judg-
es will be opened and the lucky COM
pany presented with the prize, through
the commander.
These prizes aggregate about $50. 900
$4,000 for the interstate and $4,000 for
the state companies competing.

former on account of the serious ILL
ness of his sister and the latter on
business.
Capt Cook was elected major of the
Third regiment yesterday to succeed
E. r. Jones, who failed to pass the
proper examination.
Nurse Felix Borden, of the hospital
is very popular little gentleman and
is well liked by everyone, especially
his superiors. The following paper was
voluntarily gotten up among the hos
pital physicians and signed by every
member of the T. v. G.. of Houston
medical department and presented to
him yesterday by DR.. Lockett, the med
ical director: ITO whom IL may con-

Felix Borden, has been associated
with us in the management of the hos
pital during this encampment and has
proven himself to be a very proficient
nurse" Another letter to DIR. Lock-
EFT requesting that he appoint DIR. Bor-
den to the first vacant stewardship was
also drafted and signed by the COM
pIete medical staff. The popular lit
tie doctor is Houston boy.
Capt. Eugene Hernandez, of the San
Antonio Zoaves, rendered the friends of
the company an excellent banquet and
wine supper in his handsome quarters
in Camp Culberson last night. AS is
usual with anything the genial cap
tain does, the affair was decided sue
cess and those present enjoyed the oc-
casion immensely.
The Light tenders it's thanks to Col.
Whitside, u. S. A., for the many cour-
tesies extended it's representative

Capt. Mackey, the restaurant lessee,

excellent spread be provided for the
press boys banquet yesterday after
noon.
The official programmes did not dis
pose of their programs very fast dur
ing the drill owing to the fact that
the program was changed every day.
They were selling an official souvenir
which formerly sold for Il cents and
program, which sold for ten cents
yesterday together for ten cents.

THE CLOSING BALL.

The night following Texas Day, be-
ing last night, was ushered in very
auspiciously by those socially inclined
and was also ushered out just as aus
piciously, in the grand ball room in
the old fair exposition building. The
large hall was crowded with the gay
young soldier boys and their pretty
fair faced companions and to the ex-
cellent music Of the band dancing was
kept up until after midnight hour as
this was the last one of the drill
everyone took advantage Of it to enjoy
a farewell whirl over the excellent
floor.

twenty three hours sleep the time
elapsing having been exactly week.
This excellent gentleman certainly
deserves a rest and the noble hearted
men of the Business Mems club should
see that he gets it at their expense as
all his labor has been for the benefit
of the city and none to himself; far
from 1t, being an injury to his physi-
cal as well as mental health, so severe
has been the strain.
