INSPECTION OF
CADETS OF C. MA.
STUDENTS SHOW UP WELL IN
THE DRILLS BEFORE CAPT.
LINEHEN, U. S. A.
GOOD RECORDS At TRACK MEET
Vanderbilt Gets the First Honors, but
the Locals DO Some splen-
did Work.

Friday at Columbia Military Aead
envy was a very eventful day for the
cadets Capt. Lenihan, of the U. s.
Army, made the annual inspection OF
the corps of cadets. The entire morn.
ing and the early part of the after
noon was spent in inspections and
drills. A large crowd of loyal sup
toNorters Of the Academy witnessed the
>9e emonies, and were all we'll pleas
ed with the appearance of the boys.
The Butts Manual drill was espec-
tally interesting, being gone through
with by music, rendered by the ex-
cellent cadet band. Capt. Lenihan,
being a government official, naturally
made few remarks, but from what he
did say, it was apparent that the gen
eral appearance of the academy and
the proficiency of the cadets in drill
ing was pleasing to him. He compli-
mented the band, saying that it was
one of the best student bands in the
country.
There is no doubt but that c. M. A.
will remain in class "a of the War
Departments register of military
schools.
Track Meet.
Another interesting event and one
that was somewhat of a surprise, was
the dual track meet between c. M. A.
and Vanderbilt University. There
had been some talk of such a meet,
but the arrival of the college athletes
yesterday was unexpected. Coach
Anderson brought several of his best
men on the $3.50 train and the c. NJ.
A. boys Immediately agreed to meet
them.
The meet began at o'clock and
continued for an hour and half. The
cadets had just finished a hard day
of drilling and consequently were in
very poor condition for the violent
exercise that a track meet calls for.
OF course the superior coaching and
lOuS experience VI the COilOSloho hl"AO
them the winners of all events, but
C. M. A. demonstrated that there will
be a first class team to represent the
the academy at the S. l. A. A. meet
at Vanderbilt in May.
C. M. A. won either second or third
place in every feature and pushed the
collegians even for first place.
The Vanderbilt team was composed
of such athletes as Stein Stone, Be
jack, King, Roberts, Andrews, Ewing
and Young.
C. M. A. team was as follows:
L. Zinzer, G. Kinzer, Lee, Burns,
Tardy, Sowell, Black, Bond, Means
and W. Shelton.
No remarkable records were made,
but everything was pulled off in fast
time.
The high-jump was won by Stone at
s feet 8 inches with Kinzer close
second at 5 feet inches.
Beiack won the 100-yard dash in IL
second, King second, Tardy third.
22O-yard dash was won by Bejack
in 35 seconds, King second, Tardy
third.
Roberts was the winner in the half
mile race in 1927 is time. Sowell
and Burns second, Andrews third.

historic track at Goshen, n. Y. where
John r. Gentry came from to EwelI
Farm, and where Joe Patchen is now
owned. The following are the ami
mails that were shipped:
Silver Gentry, three-year-old, out
of Yum Yum, the dam of Silver Hal
2:10 and Gold Hal 2:12A, by Prince
Pulaski, the sire of the great Matte
Hunter to whom John Splan gave a
record of 2:12&, twenty-five years ago.
The second dam of Silver Gentry was
Emma, a producing daughter of Tom
Hal, the sire of Hal Pointer 2:041s;
and his third dam was Ruby, double
producer, by General Hardee, that
also traces into the Hal foundation.
Silver Gentry is generally regarded as
one of the best PAGERS this sire has
produced.
Walton Gentry the two-year-old
trotter that was exhibited at Column
bia on Monday and excited so much
admiration from the crowds who saw
him This colt is out of daughter
of the great STEAMBOAT 2071A, that
once sold for $4,000 and was bred
for a trotter and does not know any
other gait. He was also bred for the
horse show, and while he can easily
take two-year-old record of 2:30 or
better, he will not be raced until 1909,
but he will appear in all the horse
shows in the neighborhood of Orange
N. Y, this year.
Gentlesse. a daughter of John r.
Gentry and Elise s., 2:11a4, the daugh-
,er of STEAMBOAT that won the big $4,000
match race at Goshen against Marcus
0aly's Limerick. Gentlesse is very
ike her dam in appearance and trot-
ing gait, but with it has the finish
md beauty and disposition of her sire.
She too was bred for trotter. and
,nows no other gait.
Gentriana, a beautiful filly and pac-
r, a daughter of John R. Gentry and
2:10%, by Mercury 2:21,
ire of Kruger 2:04, the biggest money
winner among the PAGERS on the grand
ircuit in 1907. The second dam of
his f1lly carries the blood of Brown
Ial, being his granddaughter through

Animal Maternal instinct.

Il have young retriever, gentle,
we'll bred, handsome" says CORE
spondent of an English paper. "Her
kindly disposition has won her much
popularity, and she is loved by the
family cat, the green Amazon par
rot and the village children. A few
days ago some poor little superflu-
GUS Aberdeen puppies had to be
drowned. But when the man went
to get the little bodies to give them
a decent burial two had mysterious
ly vanished from the pail in which
they had found a watery grave. For
long time we searched in vain,
much puzzled at the unaccountable
disappearance, until a servant vol
unteered the information that Mag
gle had two little dogs in her bed
And here We found them, two little
corpses, licked clean and dry and
gently laid side by side on the straw.
She had fished them out of the pail,
carried them there and apparently
done all she could to revive them.
She has never had any puppies of
her own, so this seems a curious in
stance Of maternal instinct"

A Good Memory.

OF the late genial and kindly

a good many years ago, while be
held the position Of janitor of Trim
ity Methodist Episcopal church, the
minister one summer Sunday morn.
ing delivered a sermon which, it
appears, had been given by him
once before, perhaps two or three
years previous.
On the Sunday in question and
during the progress of the sermon
violent thunderstorm came up,
which created some little nervous.
ness among the congregation.
After the services were over and
as the minister was about to leave
the building he met the janitor.

Knew a Thing or Two.

When boy at school the famous
preacher, Sturgeon, took a promi-
nent part in answering all questions
put to the class. One cold day, how
ever, the teacher noticed that he
was so very b; edward that he re-
NAMED the whole time at the bot
tom of the class. This went on for
some time and puzzled the teacher
until he noticed that the fire was
near the bottom of the class. He
Immediately changed the class
about, making the bottom the top.
He then had the satisfaction Of
hearing all his questions fully an
swered by Sturgeon and that young
hopeful keeping the same seat, the
only difference being that he was at
the top of the class instead of the
bottom.-Spare Moments.

OUR BIG COUNTRY.
A Season When the Sun Never Sets
on tho Stars and Stripes.

~ oSas0H "nen Sne sun never Sets
on tho Stars and Stripes.
There is only one flag that the sun
never sets on-the British. But the
American flag is close second, for
the sun during half the year never sets
on it either. That is to say, these two
are the only flags that the sun is con-
tinuously shining over, no matter what
his position in the heavens-the one all
the year round and the other during
exactly half the year, from March % to
Sept. %.
OF course 1t is true that on no day at
all during the year can the sun be seen
from any two points Of continental
United States at all times during a
period Of twenty-four hours. But the
United States naval observatory has
made careful calculations which by in
Guiding Alaska, Porto Rico and the
Philippines show that between the
spring and fall equinoxes the sun new
er ceases to shine in the eyes of the
American eagle.

ROBERT BURNS.
The Poets First Love and His vsr,ss
In Her Praise.

Robert Burns, the Scottish poet,
vas born at Mount Oliphant, Jan.
rs, 1859, near Ayr, in a clay built
cottage reared by his fathers own
hands. When lad of eighteen the
family moved to Lochlea. His first
three or four years at Lochlea were
still with the poet times of inno-
cence, and ''his conduct was govern
ed by the strictest rules of virtue
and modesty." At last he set his
affections on young woman named
Ellison Begbie, the daughter of q
small farmer, and asked her to be
his wife, but he could not prevail on
her to marry him, and this disap-
pointment had a malign influence
over the poet. Long afterward,
when he had seen much of the
world, Burns spoke of this girl as,
of all those on whom he ever fixed
his tickle affections, the one most
likely to have made pleasanter
partner for life. 1t was to her he
addressed the pure and beautiful
love lyric ''Mary Morison," and in
these lines the lyric genius of
Burns was for the first time unde-
niably revealed:
