Ten thousand of WaShingtOn'S elite
crowded the spacious grounds of the
American League Park last Thursday
afternoon. 1t was the largest crush
of the season, Outranking even the
brilliant aSSemblage that came q few
days earlier to witness the cOmbatS of
the white High School Cadets. This
day was set for the battle royal of
the three companies of the CO1Ored
High School, and in more than usual
number and with more than usual en-
thuSiaSm, the mothers, sisters and
sweethearts of the brave ''SOjer boys"
turned out TO witness the trial of skill
at foot and arms"
Some one has said that all drills of
the High School Cadets look alike
but he was wrong. They do not look
alike, for every year the Improvement
in both manual and maneuver is
strongly marked, and the changes in
the personnel Of the. companies keep
all on the alert to institute cOmpari-
sons, estimate chances of victory, and
each year these changes bring to the
fore a new set of cOlOr-bearerS and
new hearts to be thrilled by the sue
cess of their favOrite, or be cast down
by defeat. So, while the crowds con-
tinue to come, arrayed in the finest
development Of the art of the mOdiste
and milliner. typifying the highest
possibilities of the AfrO-American race,
there are noticeable differences that
stimulate interest, and each drill seems
more complete and more fascinating
than the one just before. This last
was easily the best of the series, and
the laurelS went in the direction that
they would have gone had the
audience been empowered TO decide.
despite all personal preferences.
Probably never in the history of the
Washington High School has such a
distinguished audience witnessed Il
competitive drill OF the colored cadets.

Great Enthusiasm Over To-Day's Play
 The Chicago Man Is Giving Cham
 pion Travis a Close Game.
 Atlantic City. N. J.. Sept 21.-After having been postponed for a week oW- ing to the death of President McKin- ley, the golf match between Walter J. Travis, the champion, and Walter Egan of Chicago for the amateur champion ship of the United States Golf associa- tion was begun this morning on the links of the Atlantic City Golf club at Northfield.
 A fog hung over the links during the early morning but the sun came out strongly toward 10 o'clock and the course was soon dry. The air was cold. Play started at $40.
 The champion had the honor and his tee drive was twenty yards better than that of Egan. Both overran the green in their approach but on two good puts they halved the hole in four. The sec sond hole was also halved in five. The third hole was won by Travis one up. Egan captured the fourth by one up making the score even. The fifth MdS ulNlueu III SlA SlEOheS. DUH neu got into the bunker on the way to the sixth hole. but Travis holed out in four, Egan taking five. This put Travis again in the lead.
 A wide and deep sand pit lies direct ly in front of the seventh green. This they cleared safely and landed four feet from the hole in four strokes each. Their fifth missed and then the cham pion missed another easy chance to score by trimming the cup and it was his opponents hole in six, which again made the match square,
 Travis was dead on the green in his opening drive to the eighth hole while Egan was a little short. The latter, however, managed to halye the hole in three.
 Both men made good tee drives, on their way to the ninth. On the second shot, however, Travis got into another bunker. Egan had better fortune and cleared it.
 The latter held his advantage by a neat approach and made the hole in five to Travis's six. This made the western man one up for the outward journey.
 The tenth and eleventh holes were duplicates and were halyed in three each.
 At the close of the mornings play the score stood as follows:
