DRILL IN THE PARK,
Boys Brigade Give First Public tx
hibltion of Their Work.

The members of the Boys Brigade.
under command of Major Wilson. gave
their first public exhibition drill in
Union Square last evening, and ac-
quilted themselves quite creditably.
The boys marched and countermarched
and performed all the evolutions OF the
National Guard, with gun drill and
brigade marching formation. in good
order. Quite crowd OF interested
spectators watched the drill, not least
among the number being the usual
bunch of small boys, which marched
along with the brigade. Towards the
close OF the drill one of the three COM
panies became rather badly mixed in
executing "fours forward. tours right"
order. and when the small boys began
hooting, broke ranks and would have
charged the crowd. However, after
some effort on the part of the officers
the soldiers resumed their places in
| line and the drill went on.

Reminder Of Great Eruption o
Krakatoa in the
West.

When the sun went down last even

q glow which Redeemed the heavens for
an hour after night should have fallen.
The afterglow was of the intense shad-
ing, the apex of the color scheme ex-
tending fully fifty degrees in altitude.
while the spreading upon the horizon
was something like the same.
The scene was witnessed by many
persons attracted by the vivid light eff

sky effects seen when Krakatoa. the
Javanese volcano, caused such loss OF
life by its immense eruption in 1888, the
effect being noticed here on August 81
The lights in the sky were seen very
brilliantly for something like thirty
days. and afterwards for nearly year
there appeared semblance of the shad-

The glow in the west was most in

remained brilliant until half past

a special envoy OF the United states,

Rejoice, and men will seek you;
Grieye, and they turn and go.
They want full measure of all your

But they do not want your woe.
BE glad and your friends are many.
Be sad, and You lose them all;
There are none to decline your nectared

Congressman Kehoe has also
been urging the department to let
the contracts for these dams right

with, the successful bidders will
have time to secure materials and
prepare for opening the work as
soon as the low water season
comes. They would then be able
to complete the dams in one season,
thus giving us the use of nearly
forty miles of slackwater a year
sooner than otherwise. Our
readers doubtless know that only
