rate Battalion of High School Cadets, made

The judges were selected from the Ma
tional Guard of the District. They were
Major Glendle B. Young Capt. Leroy w.
Heron and Capt. f. H. Rogers. Major

mish. which was feature of the day.
The cadets conducted themselves admir-
ably" Major Young added. THE precision
with which the commands were executed
and the snap and vim which was added
to the movements was very commendable.

which was the winner; all four companies
made a very good showing"

age that never wavered under any clr- cumstances, genius that compassed all the exigencies of his own situation and all the intentions of the foe. He pre- ferred the night for battle over the day This fact is conclusive of his faith in himself and his perfect reliance on his men. He relied always on the charge. He employed 1t at every opportunity pos sible. To illustrate, in the Dalton cam paign he worked his way with a few hum dred men to the rear of Sherman. He found himself and command on one side of a large farm and several thousand of the enemy's cavalry observing them from the other side Presently the enemy formed and charged. The distance was a thousand yards between the opposing lines Wheeler put himself at the head of his men and started to meet the en- emy at a Sttady walk. His thought was that so large force, coming at full speed a thousand yards, would break into fragments before 1t could reach him. He had reckoned alright. The enemy broke into squads Then he counter charged, captured many, killed many and rode back into army lines undisturbed. The last fight he had-March 21, 1865, at Bentonville-he charged with Aliens Ala ban1ians and Texas regiment, whole saving General Johnston's little army from complete enclosure and capture.

 with satire and a weaving in of home like human story which appeals strongly to city audiences, who rapid lv grasp the fact that the play is skillfullv constructed on such lines as to remove it entirely from the category of the usual melodrama.
 Its originality of dialogue, breezy situations together with the clever disposition of various powerful dra- matic situations which arise, are as refreshing as the cool wind from the
