Columbia and friends of the local citizen

their way to the drill hall of the Center
Market Armory last evening to witness the
events of the annual meet of the Athletic

had. been appropriately decorated for the
occasion, was crowded by an assemblage
as enthusiastic probably as any in the his
tory of the national capital. Brig. Gen.
Geo. H. Harries, commanding the District
OF Columbia Militia, and the members Of
his staff were present, as were a number of
the officers of the army who are stationed
at Fort Myer, Va, and the majority or the
officers of the guard, all in uniform. A
large proportion of the spectators were la
dies, and their bright spring costumes and
the brilliant trappings of the soldiers COM
bined to make the scene brilliant one.
The Most Successful Meet.
Beyond all question the meet was the
most successful in every way in the history
of the association. The National Guard
Brigade Band, stationed in the gallery, and
directed by Chief Musician D. B. Macleod.
contributed very much to the pleasure of
the evening. Major E. H. Neumeyer, presi-
dent of the aSSOcia ton, seemed to be every
