Fast Day Observance.

Fast day was one of the most half
hearted holidays that has been OBJ
served by Watervile people for a long
time. This cannot be laid to the people
or the day, but the weather, which is
to blame for it all. Everybody meant
we'll when they made their preparations
for a good time, Fast day. and no end
of picnics, rides, ball games. and fish
ing trips had been arranged. but the
snow came, Wednesday, and spoiled it
all. There were few who had the
courage to go driving, Notwithstanding
the mud, but for the most part the peo-
pie stayed at LONE. A few of the en-
thusiasts who could not go fishing con-
tented themselves with getting out the
rods and tackle and handling it loving
ly and then having n pipe dream in
which they caught all kinds of finny
beauties. The weather man has a lot to
do to atone for the suffering he has
caused of late.

58TH CONGRESS.
Carolina Representatives As
saiIment of the President.
General Grosvenor Makes Strong De-
fence in Lower Branch.
e.neral Deficiency Bill Occupies Most
of Senate's Time.

Washington. April 22.-Today, Pres
,sant Pooseyer was assailed by Claude
Kitcbin of North Carolina, VINO lncuu-
"A in his castigation, Gen. GrosVehor'
,,hom no charged with having humlll-
a,.a President Roosevelt, the wee
presidential candidate, and whom III
a recent speech in the House lie i.au
,,,oriGed as the worthy successor OF Mr..
Mckinley.
Mr.. Kitchin likened President Roose-
velt in this connection to the ant mn
taking the place of the mountain the
owls screech taking the place OF the
,omb's symphonies. and to the mihhoM
taking the place of the whale. He de-
cIared that the President had inSulteo
the people of the South by saying III
his public publications that thrpuShoui
,he Southern character there runs n
streak of barbarism. He openly charged
the President with being the advocate
Of the lynch law and quoted from one
of the Presidents books to sustain his
assertion. In his opinion the Presl-
dent whom, he said, while governor OF
New York, had styled the members OF
Congress as a herd of cattle. was unfit
to hold Office and was dangerous man.
Gen. Grosvenor admitted that foui
wears ago he opposed the nomination
of Mr. Roosevelt for Vice President,
but said Mr.. Roosevelt during the cam
paign had conducted himself in dig
niied manner and had won the con-
fdence and esteem of the people by his
acts for the time he vas elected to pre-
side over the Senate, and that ht
reached the supreme heights when ht
declared at Buffalo that he would carry
out the policies of Mckinley. Since
then the President had grown to bt
one of the great men of the country.
The President. ne said, was more dam
gerous to the Democratic party than
any other man, today. The Democrats
IN New York, he said, had launched
candidate for President who did not
know whether he stood on his head or
his heels.
Preceding this episode, the House
debated the bill to create commission
to investigate the merchant marine, but
took no action on it.

as to the home company. They were
cheered when they came on the floor
and made a fine appearance. The COM
pany was in command of Lieutenant
Owen. Much the same can be said of
them as of Company II, with the excep-
tion that Company Nj did not so so far
into the movements as did COMPANY
II. leaving out much that, while not es-
sertial, was evidence of the thorough
knowledge of the drill. In the inspec-
ton, Lieut.. owen took each piece and
inspected it, while Capt. Besse content
ed himself with an examination of the
appearance of the accoutrements and
men. The slippery condition of the
floor bothered the Augusta men and
they were left. In the marchings
Lieut.. owen allowed his leading guide
to make his turns at will and the COM
pany moved with more of n swing and
better cadence than that shown by
Company II.
In the main the marching of the Au-
gusta company was better than that Of
Company II.
In the manual of arms and in the
bayonet exercise the superiority of
Company II was evident. the Augusta
men lacking the snap and finish shown
by the local company and in the firings
also the local company was superior. In
the extended order work the Augusta
company did very WELL perhaps even
better than Company H. All through
this drill the movements We're execut-
ed very quickly and the drill had the
appearance Of being hurried, nothing
being put in unless absolutely essential,
and Company NJ finished the drill in
about three-fourthS the time taken by
Company II. Time was one of the
points considered in deciding the drill.
The company was loudly cheered when
it left the floor
The judges retired to consider the
merits of the two companies, and Musi-
clan Tapley of Company II blew 4
number of the bugle calls used in the
service. Company II has one of the An
est musicians in the State Guard and
Musician Tapley's work, Thursday
evening, was greatly enjoyed.
After Il comparison of their notes the
judges returned to the hall and Capt.
Mitchell announced that they had de-
cided i'm favor of Company II. This an
burst of cheers, and it was some time
before the tumult had died down. A
very careful system of marking was
used. ana Company II won only by
small margin. In many instances the
judges We're unanimous in their mark
ings on the movements. The judges
were loud in their praise of the COM
panies. and declared the drill to have
been an excellent exhibition.
The drill was attended by very
large crowd, the galleries being crowd
cd. The stage was occupied by the
members of the city government as
guests of Company II. The drill was
followed by very enjoyable hop with
music by Harlow'S. orchestra. Capt.
Besse was floor manager and had as
aids Lieutenants TOlman and Alden,
Sergeants McAlary and Pepper, Corpo-
raj McCOrcle, Musician Tapley, Privates
Lincoln, Craig and Leighton.
