troduced as the orator of the day and delivered a very interesting, pa
 triotic and well prepared address.
 He was followed in a few remarks
 by General A j. Sampson, who had
 been assigned some time ago as ora
 tor of the day, but who by reason of
 severe illness had found it neces-
 tary to decline and yesterday for the
 first time since his sickness was able
 to leave his home. General Samp-
 son added variety to the speechmak-
 ing by referring to his own eXpe- rience of just one year before which found him in Lucerne, Switzerland, on Decoration Day. On that occasion he devoted himself to a little study in foreign patriotism by devoting the day to a visit to the monument of the sleeping lion erected to commem- morate the valiant deeds of the Swiss guard of honor to the French king who for some years defended him and all of whom were finally slain in his cause on the occasion of the uprising of the Jacobins in 1792. The monument of the lion is chiseled from solid granite and is twenty feet high, about fifteen feet long and well proportioned. showing an arrow in the lions heart The statue is often referred to in that as a symbol of patriotism. The general closed with remarks about the flag, saying that though the veterans may have forgotten the husking bees and other pasttimes of youth, they have never forgotten nor ceased to love the flag and will love 1t more when it carries on its blue field the star of Arizona
 General Sampson was followed by Governor Kibbey, who spoke about the same length of time. His re- marks were highly appropriate to the occasion and dwelt with other fea- tures of the day and its memories.
 Mrs. Winfield Scott read the Get .ysburg address of Abraham Lincoln and the Woman's Relief Corps hung yreaths of flowers in memory of the lead heroes of the republic. The cer- ,monies were ended with the firing of a salute by a firing squad of the national guard.

DELEGATES
IN A FIRE

Springfield. Ill, Mar. 26.-Fire at
noon today practically destroyed the
Leland Hotel, one of the best known
hostelries in the country. Most of the
delegates attending the Republican
convention had rooms in the hotel,
and nearly all of them lost their bag
gage. Most of the delegates were at
the convention when the fire broke
out. So far as known no lives were
lost. The fire broke out in an upper
story from unknown causes. There
was a heavy wind blowing, and. it
was evident in a few minutes that
the building was doomed In a short
time the flames were bursting thru
the windows of the fourth and fifth
floors, and the wind made it almost
impossible to keep a stream of water
on the flames. Many of the guests
acted like madmen in the effort to
save their valuables. A dozen of them
slipped through the police lines and
entered the building, but succeeded
il getting only a small portion of
their belongings. All are believed to
have regained the street in safety

WILL HELP BRING GOOD
BALL TEAMS TO ROSWELL

Final arrangements have been
made for the Cadet entertainment
which is to be given Friday, April 3.
This is a high class musical comedy
and embraces much of the very best
talent in Roswell, the cadets being
assisted by some eight or ten of the
very pick of Roswell talent. The en-
tertainment will be given in the skat
ing rink, and it promises to be the
best amateur performance ever given
in Roswell. Mrs. Percy Evans is di
recting the play, which i1sures its
success. John Hedgcoxe has been
training the chorus for some six
weeks or more, and the music will
be first class. This entertainment is
given for the benefit of the Athletic
Association, and 1t is hoped that ev-
cry one will patronize it.
The Athletic Association is endeav
ori1g to arrange games with Amaril
10. Albuquerque and the Agricultural
College of Las Cruces. In order To
bring these teams to Roswell. it viii
require the expenditure OF considera
BILE money Therefore, the cadets are
preparing TO save something from
the entertainment, if possible, in or
der to assist in bringing these rival
teams to our own town.

After losing cheerfully in several
successive games played with the Mil

defeating them six to two. 1t was the

or three seasons.
The game yesterday was we'll play
ed in all but the first half of the
fifth inning, when Crowell, pitching
for the Institute, went up in the air
to the extent that he gave five bases
on balls and allowed two hits, to-
tai of five runs being made in that
half-inning. which put the game safe
ly in the hands of the town boys. Ev-
erybody expected to see Crowell TAX
en- out of the box after that, but the
management showed its nerve and
it's confidence in Crowell by keeping
him in. And Crowell made good there
after. by shutting out the town boys

The town boys made their other
score in the second, and it was push
ed through by one of the most clever
plays ever seen on a local diamond.
Reeves went down on a hit and stole
second and advanced to third, when
Gressett went down on al error. Then
when Gressett started to steal sec
ond, he loafed en- the way until the
cadets were induced to try to throw
him out, and when the ball was
thrown to second, Reeves, who had
been playing off as far as possible,
ran home.
The cadets made their two runs in
the fourth aid eighth. In the fourth
