The battery was organized in 1883
and was first composed of two platoons,
one stationed here and the other at
Winfield. The Winfield platoon was
first composed entirely OF civil war vet
Grams. Later the Winfield platoon was
transferred to Wichita, and a short time
ago was moved here and merged with
the Topeka platoon. The battery equip
ment is now composed of four 81 inch
steel rifles and a Calling gun, one bat
terry wagon, four caissons and an es-
cort wagon. There are rs enlisted men
and five officers. The battery is under
command Of Capt. w. A. Pattison, and
his officers are as follows: Senior first
lieutenant. c. q. Grimes; Junior first
lieutenant, e. e. Edwards; senior sec
ond lieutenant, M. C. Pennekant; Junior
second lieutenant, H. v. Clayton. Nom
commissioned officers: First sergeant,

A. B. Gilyeate; cooks, Ed Bass and

Ter.
Meets Every Monday.
The battery meets every Monday
night at it's quarters on Jackson
street, between Fourth and Fifth.
where it's guns, harness and heavy
equipment are stored and part of the
members go through guard duty drill.
The larger number, however, meet in
the Metropolitan hall on Kansas ave-
nue. in the 400 block. They use the
hall for a drill room only, but have
two rooms on the third floor for the
quartermaster where are stored all
their uniforms and light camp and
marching equipment. The state pays
the men for two drills a month. The
attendance at these drills is good and
the interest taken by the men is one
of the important features Of the sue
cess Of the organization in reaching its
present state of efficiency. But after
all. to Captain Pattison must go the
lions share of the credit for the
present standing of the Kansas bat
terry. The captain is one of these
quiet, modest men who accomplish big
things by their close devotion to duty
and details and their everlasting
energy and determination. It is far
more difficult task to place a national
guard organization on a plane of
efficiency than it Is company or
regiment in the regular army. The
national guard officer must contend all
the time with the faint line between
civil and military life. He must win
the obedience. respect and interest of
his men by his own personality and
