Mr. Salisbury, in @ talk with Srar reporter, sud today: “This is the fourth Knights Templar gathering I have attended, having been pres- ent at Cleveland, Chicago and St. Louis, and I may say without hesitation that so far as qual- the finest I ever saw. which organization in line was most deserving Of praise. Cappa’s band is too well knpwn for its excellence to need auy praise. The Hamil- ton band trom Toronto, the second regiment band from Chicago, and the Springfield band also played in magnificent style. We are also yey proud of our own band Mr. cope wai 6 of us that we were one of best in the citi which, coming from such # source, is high praise. The Arion bandis one of the few organizations of its kiud, composed almost entirely of business men, There were from eighty-five to ninety bands in the line, averaging about twenty-five men each, so you see there was quite a little army of musicians alone. This esiimate is not counting the drum corps, of which there were about ten or twelve.” THE NATIONAL GUARD. An Immense Crowd Witnesses the Brigade Dress Parade. The national guard of the District earned new luurels yesterday afternoon in the dress parade which took place at 6 o'clock, This was the first brigade dress parade held in the city, There were thousands of spectators on the White lot, where the parade took place, and the applause that went forth from the crowd at times at the various maneuvers of the soldier boys cheered them in their duty. The crowd formed an ellipse nearly a quarter of a mile in diameter and a dozen files thick, a sort of human race track, over which an agile and light-footed runner might have raced without @ fall, ‘The central space reserved for the evolutions of the soldier boys was kept clear only by the continuous and muscular efforts of a squad of policemen, assisted by company A of the cay- alry and company A of the artiliery branches of the guard.
