TWO COMPANIES PARADED.
Greens and the Emmets Loyal Il
Memory of st. Patrick.


The Irish Jasper Greens and the EN-
met Rifles combined yesterday afternoon
for a street parade in honor of St. Pat
rick The parade was a phenomenal sue
cess, in that both companies turned out
an exceptionally large number of men,
the efforts OF the officers to attain that
end having been constant during the few
days preceding the display.
Capt. P. E. Gleason of the Irish Jasper
Greens, was in command of the battalion,
and Second Lieutenant w. j. Kehoe OF
the Emmets, acted as adjutant. The pa
rade was formed at $3.50 o'clock, and, with
the band in the lead. playing Irish airs,
interspersed with marches, the march was
taken up through the principal streets,
following the line indicated in the Morn
ing News of yesterday. At the Jasper
Monument the Greens fired three excel
Dent volleys.
A great showing was made by both COM
panes. The Emmets had 70 men out, un-
der command of Capt. +. A. Leonard.
The company showed the excellence of the
instruction through which it has been put
by Capt. Leonard and his able lieutenants
during the short time that has elapsed
since its organization. 1t has been a
40 much has been accomplished with the
company by the officers.
The Greens were little behind the En-
NETS in point of numbers. The number
turned out by each company was in ex-
cess of that of any company in Savan-
nah since the occasion of the laying of
the cornerstone of the Jasper Monument,
when the Greens had ninetyfour men in
line.
After the parade, each company was
entertained in its quarters at the Regi-
mental Armory. The Greens were the
guests of their captain, and two hours
were spent very pleasantly. After ample
justice had been done the good things with
which the tables were graced. the cap
tain, acting as POSTMASTER, called on Of
ficers and men present to contribute to
the pleasure of the occasion, which they
did in very acceptable style. Among the
speakers and singers were Maj. Henry
Kolshorn, Lieut.. James McGrath retir-
ed; Capt. Leonard. Lieut.. j. F. McCar-
thy, Lieut.. A. c. Common. Lieut.. Kehoe,
Sergt. Hohenstein and Private Reynolds.
