MILITARY TOURNAMENT ENDS.
Canadians Show Better with smaller
Turnout In the Garden.

With two performances yesterday the tenth
annual military tournament came to an end.
1t was a successful one. but not so sue
oeSsful as In former years. Early In the week
the attendance was rather slim. especially on

into the Garden.

Friday night. although they had been busy
all day taking in the sights. The band last
night played popular airs instead OF the
national anthems, but no Canadian airs
were played and as on the first night there
was a marked absence OF any British flags.
The managers OF the tournament had out
