I cadets in their corn cany drills, as well as in the nanua-l of arms, ia nothing short >f phenomenal. They drill with ;hat precision and accuracy that characterizes the movements of ?adet8 who have had several years )f systematic training. The rapid, ar.ogrees that the corps has made is due first to the very excellent training and discipline cf Com mandantLyon, and, second, to the ?reat interest that the cadets bav? taken in their work. In order to ^crease their interest and enthu siasm, Capt. Burns and Capt. Col irio have ordered avery handsome medal that will be awarded each month tb the best drilled cadet. Instead of at irregular intervals, is heretofore, competitive drills irill be held regularly every month, aud tho best drilled cadet will be awarded the medal for the jnsuiog month, or.until it is won Prom him by . some - other cadet.

Their loss was heavy, but we have b^eu unabl to obtain any definite information as to,the. exact amoun!. Mr. Lit tlejohn ba3 already taken steps to rebuild, and until the new "Rose Cottage" is ready fur occupaucy they will doubtless divide the lime among their' neighbors.
