ANNUAL ENCAMPMENT
Wentworth Cadets Hike to
Whites Island for a Weeks
Outing.

AT noon on Saturday. the
seventh, the battalion in high
marching order will start for
Whites Island where the sixth
annual encampment will be held.
The march will take a little
over a day and is so arranged
that even the smallest men can
make it. The first step will be
at Dover, a distance of II miles,
where. we will stay Saturday
night. Captain Pritchard hay
ing been ahead and made all
arrangements for sleeping quar-
ters. On Sunday morning the
march will be resumed and the
battalion should almost reach
Whites Island by noon.
Whites Island is one of the
finest places for such a camp in
this section of the country.
There cannot be found better
fishing in Missouri than there
and the boating and bathing are
unexcelled. There are also some
pool and billiard tables there and
it has also been minated that
arrangements have been made
for a khaki dance while we are
there, so that there will be no
lone who cannot find something
to do.
1t has been the custom for the
last six years for the battalion
to go on an encampment for a
week or ten days during the early
part of May. In 1905 the battal-
ion camped at Nawitka on the
banks of the Sni river. In 1906
it was at FIT. Leayenworth, in
1907 a company went to the
Jamestown Exposition, and in
1909-09 the camp was at Pertle
Springs. We hope that Whites
Island will surpass the previous
camps.

Song Recital.

In compliance with one of the
requirements for graduation Mis-
Dorothy Carter gave a song re
eital at Central College Monday
evening. The night was rather
forbidding which prevented a
large audience. But those pres
ent heard a program suited to the
voice and capabilities of the
singer. The following were Miss
Carter'S selection:
German Songs Schubert
Aufenthalt.
Der Gott und das Madchen.
Gretchen an Spinnrade.
Oratorio
Recitative and Aria. from ST. Paul
Mendelssohn
But the Lord Is Mindful of His Own.
Aria, from Nodeschda A. Goring Thomas
My Heart Is Weary
French Songs
Thrinodia Augusta Holmes
La Baiser A. Goring Thomas
English Songs
Three Roses Red Homer A. Norris
Sapphic Ode Johannes Brahms
Her Rose o. Whitney Coombs
Gray Days Noel Johnston
Miss Carter was rather at her
best in songs for the lower regis
ter, the "Thrinodia' of the
French group presenting a spec
ial richness of voice.
The German songs were given
with good pronunciation and
spirit, and evidenced a concept
ion of the content.
For the average listener the
closing group sung in English
was the most enjoyable, and the
numbers were heartily applauded
compelling temperance. Miss
Margaret Aull presided at the
piano; and with helpful accom-
panimentS contributed materially
to the success of the evening.

Tuesday in History.

The first administration held
in Washington, the historic cap
ital Of our country, was that of
Jefferson although the city was
not incorporated until May 3,
1902. Soon after the Inaugural
ton of President Washington, it
was considered advisable to re
move the seat Of government to
some point more centrally To-
Gated than New York, and to Sc
lect a capital which could be
brought under the supreme con-
troll of Congress. In 1890 a res
olution was passed providing that
the seat of government be fixed
at Philadelphia for ten years and
at the end of that time be re-
moved to a new city to be built
on the banks of the Potamac. A
federal district, ten miles square
was obtained by session from
Virginia and Maryland and was
placed under the sole control Of
the United States. The founda-
ton of a new city, named in hon
or of ''the father Of his coun-
try were laid on the left bank
of the Potomac and buildings for
the accommodation Of the govern
ment were begun and the work
pushed forward as rapidly as
possible. The City of Washing
ton has no local government, the
authority resting in a commission
appointed by Congress. Since
1871 the entire District of Column
bia has had a territorial form Of
government.

Wentworth Lost to Richmond
Elks.

Glh0s
The Wentworth base ball team
played its first losing game in
heart-breaking fashion "wednesday
afternoon with the Richmond
Elks on the Academy campus by
a score of 6 to 4. The visitors
in their new uniforms presented
a neat appearance. but, as this
was their first game, they did
not play ~gilt-edged ball.
In the first inning the Elks
were BANKED while the cadets
put two men around the circuit.
The dose was repeated in the
second. Then Miller, the terri
BILE twirler from the Ray hills,
went with three friends to a
buggy in the southeast corner OF
the field. He returned smack
ing his lips and thereafter there
was nothing doing off Miller.
Matchett meanwhile was throw
ing steady ball for Wentworth.
By an error and a couple of hits
Richmond cleaned two in the
fourth and then settled down to
blankety blank.
But in the ninth things hap
pened. The first Richmondite
up fell. The second bounced an
eeasy grounder to Lill-things
looked lovely. But the cadet
third sacker threw wild to first
and the Richmond runner was
safe. His successor bingled. The
next was standing with three
balls and two strikes, when Coach
Gates substituted Wilson G.. fol-
Matchett. Wilson promptly
threw the fourth ball.
The bases were full; but sill
there was hope. jim Davis
you know old Jim--was up. liz
lost his fine batting eye year,
ago. Possibly he would knock
a grounder to the pitcher md q
double would end the game. But

Recital for Graduation.

Monday night a recital at
Lexington College presented three
pupils for graduation in a COM
bined program. Two pianists,
Miss Minnie Willard and Miss
Fern Cottrell and Miss Virginia
Hopkins of the expression de
partment, were the performers in
a very enjoyable program.
The musical numbers included
such composers as Beethoven.
Bach, Schumann, Chopin, Raft,
Rheinberger, Saint Saens and
Grieg and in an unusual degree,
was comprehensive and elaborate.
Each young lady appeared
three times and the symmetry
and balance of work was admir-
ably distributed.
Miss Cottrell was charming in
her composure, and her really
excellent technique and musical
temperament place her near the
front Of the several superior
Dianists this college has present.
ed this year.
Miss Willard impresses one as
worker and a young woman of
much capacity. Her several
numbers were markedly contrast
ed and were particularly interest
ing. The playing of the Grieg
number was specially good and
was perhaps most enjoyed by her
audience.
The expression department
manifests its popularity in the
number of seniors the public has
been given opportunity to hear
in recital this winter. Miss Hop
kins delightfully."- sustained the
Equality Of entertainment hereto
fore presented, and her pleasing
personality enhanced the value
of her work. A Shakespearean
scene and Elworth' s "Piller
J Fights seem an extreme test of
adaptability, but the reader was
equally capable in both.
Each of these pupils adds her
quota, in a generous degree, to
the very excellent work exhibited
in the series Of graduating reeitals
given at Lexington College this
year, and friends of the school
lay many laurels before those
responsible for the thoroughness
Of work presented.

The Soos tailor shop, In the post
Office building and the Daniels meat
market were robbed last night and
attempts made to enter the residence
Of DR.. Winner, on East Canadian ave-
nue. and the Wilmer Office building,
adjoining. The robberies were per
petrated early in the evening, by bur
glars, whom the officers suspicion live
IN Vinita, and had their plan of oper-
d a well IN hand.
From the evidence at hand II seems
that the burglars first robbed the
soos tailor shop. securing four or five
suits of clothes. They then broke into
the Daniels meat market and secured
about forty cents IN change from the
cash drawer, but left many pounds Of
high priced meats untouched. Then
Il seems that the burglars crossed the
street TO the Winner building and to
the home of Dr. Winner, but here the
officers got on their trail. and the
burglars fed. When the officers first
learned of the robberies it was about
$3.50 o'clock.
The bloodhounds were put on the

Guthrie, Okla, Mar. 16.-The fees
and salaries bill, the consideration OF
which was the chief reason given by
Governor Haskell for calling the legls-
lature in extraordinary session, was
passed finally by the senate last night,
and having been adopted by the
house at the afternoon session will

pensary is to be retained, but its busi-
ness restricted to selling alcohol to
druggists and disposing of eonflseated
goods.

poses.
In addition to passing finally tho
fees and salaries bill, the house on
reconsideration adopted the bill sub
