TS1E NATIONAL DRILL.
The Three Important D)ays of the Great
Military Event of the Present Year.
WASHINGTON, May 24.-The oompeti
tive drill began at 10 6'clock this morn
ing. Company A, First Minnesota Rog
iment, was the lrst company to enter.
They drilled well. The second company
was the Eighth separate company of
Rochester, N. Y. These two companies
drilled in the south of the grounds too
far from the grand stand to be seen to
advantage. Next followed the Muscatine
Rifles of Iowa. They marched to the
front of the grand stand, saluted the
judges and began to drill. They handled
their pieces well, but were a little weik
in foot movements. They were liberally
applauded. Then followed the Grand
Rapids Guards, Company A, First Bat
tahon Virginia (coloced) Volunteers,
8outhrons, Vickshurg; Company A,
- First Virginia Regiment. Fopular de
monatrati.ns indicated that the Vicks
burg men and Company A, First Vir
ginia Regiment, had won the greatest
favor of the day. The competing com
panies were limited in numbers to
twenty-tout men each, with their three
officers and two guides.
The program of maro>uvres was (0
livered to each company's commander
one hour beforo the time allotted for the
'corps' appearance, and the men were
thereby kept in ignorance of the
manouvres they were to execute till the
orders were actually given. In general
terms, they were to exorcise first in the
school of the soldier (that is without
arms) then in the manual a6 arms, and
lastly, in the school of the company.
Thirty minutes were allotted to each
company to complete its program. A
furious thunder and wind storm came up
about four o'clock and put an end to the
proceedings. Tho crowds scattered at
once. The roof was blown oiY a large
part of the grand stand and the canvass,
rocks, forts and war vcsels, lnd light
house of the "Pyorama" were tipped over
and scattered. The order for dress
parade at 5 p. i. was rescinded. For the
proposed dress parade commands have
boon organized iu provisional battalions,
in which the troops of the respective
sections of the country are grouped to
gether as far as possible. Kentucky,
Ohio and )istrict of Columbia men each
form ono battalion; Texas, Mississippi
and Missouri form one; the Governor's
Guard of North Carolina are with Mich
igan and Minnesota1 men; the Virginia
troops constitute a separate brigade,
already completely organized under Gen.
C. J. Anderson. The total niumber of
men in camp is about 2,800, in seventy
organizations. One-third of the toti
are Virginians. Three-quarters of tih
commauds have entered the Competition
for infantry prizes, one of which is col
ored. Four colored companies aro in
camp, twc from Virginia and two from
the )int.riet of Columbia.
WAsn1INoToN, tay 2..-The parad of
troops to-day for review by the Presi
dent has aflorded the first opportunity
for seeing at once the entire body of
those forming the nenampment, an(1 was
an unqualiiied success. The weather
was perfect, Washington looked its best,
and the greater part of the population
seemed to be on the line of march. The
arrangements for the palrado were sea
sonably completed and were cii ried out
almost to the allotted second and with
out an apparent hitch or break. 'Ilie
head of the columitii started from ctmp
promptly at 12 o'cluck and reacheed ilie
stand erected for the President auid in
vited guests ten minutes liter. This
stand had seats for ntirly 30() persons,
and was wcll hiled, wit hout crowding.
With the President were Mrs. Cleveland,
Mrs. Welsh and Mrs. Marsey, and Colo.
nei and Mrs. Lamont. General Shieridar
andl several members of his stafl in li
uniform were theire escort. Atuong thie
guests of the drnill were Ghove riuor ILee, ofi
Virginia, andt stall; (G~oernor 31euill, oi
.Mlinnesota, aind staff, andh the stati of
Governor G ray, of Indiana, (thme Gove
ernor imnself having been detained at
the last mom,flent), Seerebirmy tiidicottI,
S3enators Sherman and (Gor min, the
Mexican and1 Japines~e Ministers and the
ladies of their famnilies, and a liberal
sprinkling of other legatiomn and army
people. The troops5 lookedl an d marched
like veterans, and weio encouraged wvithi
liberal applause. .in oit respect the
programme wvas depar tedl from. The
'icksburg Souithrons, with their baind
and the Memphis Zouaoves, brought up
the rear with qjuiite an interval between
them and their predecessors. They
formed in fact a little column by them
selves. They had been assigned to posi
tions respieetively in the fourth andl
ninth p)rovisionaxl baittionets, bmt dropped
out of hine because, ais their oflicers ex
p)lained, t hey were placed inmmediately
behind the colored o,rgaiz'i-at.ionsr.
Another heavy shower about 4 o'clock
prevented the dress parade, scheduled
for 53 o'clock.
WasmINo-roON, Maiy 2G. -T1he Richmond
Greys broke camp this morning and left
for home. Thoy cameu here wvith the
understainding that they would not re
main after they lad taken p)art in the
comupetitiv-e inifantry drill. Comxpany A,
T1hird North Carolina Rtegimenxt, also, re
turnedl home to-day. Thle reason'i is thmt
many of the menmbers areC enigaged int
b)usiness, and they were uniale to obtain
leave of absence be3 ond to-day.
The weater was superb to-daiy. The
day was indm-triouusly devoted to com.
petitiveohdrilintg andl the authorities,
profiting by expex ience and criticism,
are making the work very interesting.
S3even or eight thousnand spectators were
on the grand stand.
The compet ing infantry companics
were the Governior's~ Guards, of Rauleigh,
N. C.; the Louisiana lRils; the Sars
field Guards, of New Haven; (Conn.;
Company C, first N. .T.; Company B,
Washington Light Jnfantry Corps;
Toledo, Ohio, Cadets, and Company A,
\Vashington, D). C.. Cadets (colored).
Three of the companies are worthy of
special mxenxtion: The Louisiana Rifles,
the Washington Light infantry (Wash
mngton's crack corps) and the Toledo
Cadets, the Toledo aon probably carry
ngoff the pahoit.
-The competition for' the art illery prizes
was narrowed to two companies and the
contest conlseqluently was for the first
prize of $l1,500. T1he Petersburg, Via.,
* ~ company had withdrawn from the conx
test. Had there been a third contestant
a second prize of $1,000 would have
been awarded.
eOecompany from IndIanapolis an(d
oefoMilwaukee drilled to-day. The
* guns, horses and drivers, and also the
judges of the contest, were furnished by
the Third (regular') Artillery. Two gmut
and caissons wvere manned by the visit
ing militia and were drilled by their own
captains. Both acqluitted themselves
well.
The rifle competition also came off.
Ninety-eight entered, but only thirty
eight reported. The highest score of
the day was that of Lieutenant Pollard,
of the Washington Light Infantry. P'ol'.
lard was a member of the international
-Rifle team 'which went to Wimbledon a
few years ago. El hty-three was acored
byLeutenant hleI and Private John
sne, of the Continentals, of Washing
n,D, C., Private Orossman~, S3econd
Iowa, and Private Steyer, Qeoond Mary
land.. Many compames will leave to
night and to-morrow.
CLEVELAND Vi. 8NHEMAN.
The ieaders of the Opposing Forces In the Next
Preidentlal Fight.
Ex-Governor Curtin, of Pennsylvania,
has been talking politics a little. Hero is
what he said:
"I will tell you what will be the tickei
next year. President Cleveland will head
the l)emocratic and Senator Sherman the
Republican. All this Blaine talk of th<
Pennsylvania leaders makes mne smile.
Walt until they get to the convention and
you, will find out. They will take nc
chancs. Unless some very exceptional
condition of atlairs arises they will not b
likely to take a candidate handicapped as
Blatne is with defeat in two nomin:ting
conventions and once before the country,
which shows that there is no harmony in
the general sentiment of the party, no mat
ter what may be the enthusiasm of his per
sonal followers. If the Republicans should
commit the folly of putting himl on the
ticket again it will not be the old fight, but
a vezy ne'.v one. There's where Blnine's
friends are blind to the natural tendency of
public sentiment.
''In the campaign of 188-4 the I)emocratic
>arty was heavily handicapped by two very
Importint influences; the first was the fear
of tho industrial and (tier material interests
of the probable policy of the party on the
great financial and economic questions; the
other was the uncertainty of the ability of
Mr. Cleveland, notwithstanding the high
( h:1' utter of his previotus brief public
record, to carry out the pledges which he
had made in the interest of reform and
good government. Those fears will not
weill t the balance in favor of Mr. flaine
another time. The 'resident hIlas gained
the confidence of the whole people for cou
servatism andu regar( for the public interest
above party or personal considerations.
Wilth him at the head of the ticket no ex
iplam:iions are required. lie has simply to
pointl to the record. Therefore the two
cta(lidtates would stand( upon their merits.
Thn tlie fear of high-hunded partisanshii:
would be the other way. A great many
b)lsitess men will recognize the irudenc(
of Mr. Cleveland and will not he in a great
hurrv to nuake a change. The strength o1
Siiwrtnan woutl be inl his concded conser
vati ,m and his soundness on all the grea
i5'11s5.
ihe Governor addcd: "Since Congresi
ad"j urned I have talked with a great mnan
peolIle in and out of public life in Nev
York, l'hilttclphia, Wnshington and else
where, and I have come to the conclusiot
lhat there is a great (eal of quiet think im
;goi tg mtnlong the Republicans in regar(
to tlie choice of a 1nan to beat Mr. Cleve
land. They know they have a big jolb ot
their tutds and (out intend to muke anm
mistaLes if the.y ctan prevent it.'

A Sensation
Why is it that three bottles of .. B. B.
are sold in Atlanta to one of any other
blood retncdy, and twice as much co'n
sumtd in the Stato of (eorgia as any
other preparation? No one ieed tak'
our w ord, but simply ask the druggists.
Ask the people. They are cnp;)c i ttt
witnesses. Six houses in Atlanta are
buying B. B. B. in fivo and ten gross
lots, and some of them buy as often as
every two months. Why these unpro
cedented sales here at home with so little
advertising? Modesty forbids us making
a reply. had B. B. B. been before the
public a quarter or half a century, it
would not bo necessary to be bolstered
up with crutches of page advertisements
now. Merit will conquer and iown
