DAY PARADE
THE WAR DEPARTMENT HAS IN.
STRUcTEp COMMANDING OFF,
GER OF LOCAL POST TO PLACE
COMPANIES AT PRIscUs's
PLEASURE.

Five or six companies Of artillery
men and the fine Eighth Artillery
Band, all from Fort Barrancas, will be
in the parade, forming escort of honor
to King Priscus on February Z, from
the dock to the hotel, where he enters
into seclusion until the night pageant
on Tuesday. Such information was
contained IN orders received yester-
day from Washington, D. c., the war
department having instructed the com.
handing officer of the local post to
place the troops mentioned in line.
The sight Of so many artillerymen
in line, headed by the finest artillery
band of any southern army post will
be feature that will prove of interest
to thousands of people. both from the
city and afar. Nothing inspires true
American more than to see the soldier
and the sailor lads in line, and the
military display this year will be
about as imposing as ever shown here.
While it is not definitely settled, but
high hopes are held, it is possible that
cruisers will be in port by the carnival
date, and a strong representation from
the navy will be in the day parade.
The cruiser Montgomery, now in port,
and which will be here for some time,
may send a detachment. There are
10 officers and 215 men aboard the
cruiser. A number of smaller vessels
are ia southern waters, and it is not
unlikely that the navy department will
see fit to send one or more of them to
this point.
