of the band seemed to know one note from
another AS late as three weeks ago, the
military instructor reported, the band
could not play and march at the same
time BY dint of constant practice, how
ever. all difficulties were overcome, and
as the entire ballation of eight companies
marched about the field after the COM
petitive drill the band was at the head
of the line, the members acquitting them
selves in manner which brought forth
much applause.
Regimental parade and review preceded
the awarding of prizes. The companies
were drawn up in line of masses and
although 1t was the first public parade
and review ever held. both officers and
men conducted themselves in q manner
that won high commentator. The en-
tire regiment OF two battalionS was then
marched to the grandstand, where the
winning companies were brought to the
front. one at a time. The prize pen
nants are retained by the families" WIN
ming them for one year, and are regard

the most valuable decorations of their

Company D First on the Field.

Promptly at O'Clock Company ID
marched on the field to the music of the
school band. The judges, in khaki uni
form, were already on hand, and Capt.
Lewis put his company, all young colored
boys, through a snappy drill, which in the
opinion of many present nearly equaled
the drilling of some of the companies of
the High School Cadets. The other COM
panies followed in rapid succession, and
the entire program was carried out within
all of the $50 cadets. each one specializing
on the chances of his favorite company
winning one of the banners.
Companies 3 and are composed of
white boys. and Companies D, E and A
of colored boys. Each represents one of
the families of the school, and fam
lily spirit was manifested not only among
the pupils but among the instructors of
the school as well. There was plenty of
keen rivalry, Out it was evident to near
ly all that Company B. under Capt Swee-
ney, had the prize won, even before he
had taken his company from the field.
His men worked we'll together, the ca
dence was snappy. and the captain ham
died the company skilfully. Following the
drill Capt. Sweeney, who leaves this even
ing for his home in Oklahoma, after hav-
ing spent three years at the school, re-
celved many congratulations from his
military instructor, the judges, the Off
GERS of the school and from his fellow
pupils.
Capt. Ben Johnson, the Cherokee, is one
of the most popular officers of the school,
and many of the spectators were heard
to express regret that he did not win one
of the prizes The work of his company,
however, did not seem to be quite as good
as that of Company d.
