 brigade encampment, and several thous- and spectators were present in the after noon. when Governor Cunningham and his stan reviewed the troops.
 It rained for some time before the re- view, but people gathered in great crowds regardless of the weather.
 The review was splendid success and when 1t was over Governor Cunningham expressed unbounded satisfaction at the way 1t passed off From beginning to end there was not a hitch of any kind. When the fact is considered that this was the second review of the brigade ever held it's success was regarded as simply won derful. Every company of every regiment was on its mettle, and, from military viewpoint it could hardly De surpassed.
 From a spectators point of view the re- view was decidedly the event of the en- campment, and all those who were pres ent commented on the excellence of the showing made by the entire brigade.
 Spontaneous Applause.
 When Governor Cunningham and his staff rode on the field the applause was spontaneous and long continued, and as the executive rode down the line the ac- clamation continued to grow in volume. The governor doffed his hat and bowed to the spectators as he passed. He was ae- companied by Adjutant General Brandon, Inspector General Ligon, Quartermaster General Holt, Colonel Henry B. Gray, Colonel Dean, Colonel Hamilton, Colonel Grant, Colonel Rosenstihl, Colonel Black burn and Colonel Cunningham son of the governor, who was yesterday added to the staf; as surgeon general of the state.
 The three regiments, the squadron of cavalry, the artillery and P troop of the United States regulars, were formed in battalion line, and the governor, his staff and Brigadier General Clark and his staff rode along the line. The governor1and his staff then returned to their station at the foot of the flag pole on parade grounds, where they stood while the entire brig ade passed in review
 Following the review the Second regi- ment formed and had dress parade. The governor, his staff and also the brigadier general and his staff remained on the field until the dress parade was complet- ed. When the national air was played the flag on the parade ground was lowered and the reviewing officers rode off.
 Accident to Father O'ReiIiy.
 As the staffs were coming towards the headquarters the horse ridden by the Rev. Father oReilly, who was acting chaplain of the Third regiment. became unmanageable and ran away with him As 1t reached brigade headquarters the horse stopped suddenly. planted its fore feet in the ground and Father OReilly was thrown over the horses head. He fell on his left temple and shoulder and was unconscious for some time. Surgeon General Dedman and Surgeon General Morris attended him at once. He was quickly carried on a cot into the head quarters tent and after he revived he was placed in one of the tents where he re- ceived every attention.
 As soon as the accident occurred Gener- al Clark issued an order doubling the sentry lines around headquarters, and no one was allowed to pass except commis- stoned officers. The crowd being kept away all confusion was prevented. Ordi- narily after dress parade the lines are opened and the public is allowed to pass by headquarters, and this would have been done yesterday afternoon except for the accident.
 ater in the evening Father OReilly was sufficiently recovered to be carried -. ta1 Ira. n or,,ta Ia,
 Vicious Horse.
 The horse which Father OReilly rode was a vicious and unruly animal. The popular chaplain got him by mistake. The horse had been discarded for use at brigade headquarters.
 General Clark, Governor Cunningham and the entire staffs of both commanders did everything in their power for Father O'Reilly and had everything made as com fortable for him as possible. Father Doyle was present and assisted.

 Following. the review Governor Cum ningham and his staff was entertained at dinner at the Country club. Later all the officers or the Nduondi Dudiu anu all United States officers visiting the camp or detailed at camp were entertained at a dance and dinner.
 Yesterday General Clark issued the fol- lowing general circular to the officers notifying them of the invitation of the Country club, which large number of them accepted and had a most enjoyable time:
