Just now it looks as though there would be a good deat of competition for Tue Evexrxo Stan medal—a most desirable prize. Any man may shoot for it who has a record on the books of his command that equals 65 per cent, and there are quite a number of oficers and enlisted men who have passed that mark considerably. Entries for Tug Sran match must be made at headquarters aud before next Monday night, and by that time a date wiil be decided upon on which those who have entered will be permitted to practice over the range. The battalion tea.as are working away, and, unless all the signs the team that wins the fate trophy will save to do more than a| i ttle good shootin: Most of the men who wilt participate in this competition are un! quantities, so there may be a few interesting surprises in store for the veterans. ‘the first attalion believes it can put five men at the firing point who will be invincible. ‘ihe fifth dattalion has at least two of the Creedmoor twelve in its little aggregation, and conse- ently laughs at competition. No one need be Roches it some other battalion wins the prize. New York and New Jersey smiled several times when it was intimated that the District team was areal competitor for the Hiiton trophy. Since September 13 they have neglected to smile. Over-confidence is more dangerous than inexperieuce. THE SUNDAY HERALD PRIZE. There will probably be another competition on November 5, or, if it cannot be squeezed in ou that day, it may take piace on the day fol- lowing. It will be for the Sundog Heraid medal. This will differ materially from Tae Stan match in that only those who have never wou ® medal in individual competition will be eli gible. The contetants must have qualitied marksmen—63 per cent. The shoot will be over the four ranges—200, 300, 500 aud 600 yards—and the number of shots at each range will probably be five. This ought to bring out &®good many men and may be an interesting aduir. THIS 18 FATR WARNING. Gen. Ordway has at last protested against being burdened with the duties of the quarter- master dep Ever since the guard came into be ve been in the habit of going to headquarters exchange ciothing. Perhaps their caps did not fit or some other portion of their attire was rendered useless, and then instead of gomg to their company commanders and having the exchange made they rushed to headquarters and with the sublimest kind of innocence, the innocence born of ignorance, would go direct]; commanding general and make kuown their wants. Up to this time the general has been doing everything that was required of him, but he thiuks now that the brigade is sufti- cientuy well organized to do things properly. He comes out in general orders as follows, and don't you forget to remember it: “Ihe prac- tice of sending men to the quartermaster gen- eral’s store room to individually exchange elothing must be discontinued. Company commanders will collect, as occasion requires, all of the artici-s dewred to be exchanged in respective companies and send them by a non- commissioned officer with a written memoran- dum: of the sizes of each article required in exchange.” THE ENGINEERS ARE COMING. There promises to be a big attendance at the meeting to be held at headquarters on Monday evening for the purpose of organizing an en- gineer company. Gen. Ordway is enthusi in the matter—as he 1s in everything be doe: and he has the hearty support of some of the beat men im the brigade, to say nothing of those who desire to join ‘the new command. Just now there seems to be no good and sufli- cient reason for supposing that the engineer company will not be the crack subdivision of the D. C.N. G. Dogs IT nURT? Somebody is having his knuckles rappod Pretty severely, and the man whose digits are suffering is not saying a word. Very probably he will not repeat the offense for which he has suonymously been crucitied in the following paragraph im general orders: ‘Intermediate commanders have not the right to retain or suppress communications addressed to superior headquarters, but should promptly forward them to the proper destination. through mili- tary chanuels, with such remark of explana- tion. recommendation, approval or disapproval ss may be deemed necessary.” KEEP YOUR LOCKERS IN ORDER, No excuse exists now for disorderly appear- ing lockers. Many men have been extremely careless in this particular and threw their things in s confused heap in the subdivision allotted them. The following regulations have been prescribed and had better be attended to as soon as possible or the slackness may be dis- covered. The formula is as follows: *“To insure uniformity in the arrangement of lockers the following regulations are prescribed: The rub- ber blanket will be neatly folded and placed on the floor of locker; the woolen blanket will be folded and put in the blanket bag with a small piece of camphor or other motu prevent- tive and the blanket bag placed upright against the right-hand partition of the locker; leggings and shoes will be laid on the rubber bisaket, sud helmet, cap and gloves on the shelf. On the inside of the doors of lockers are two hooks —the woven cartridge belt will be bung wn the left-hand hook and the leather waist belt with cartridge box attached on the right-hand hook. ‘There are eight clothes hooks under the shelf; designating these hooks from lett to right, be- ginning with the left-hand rear hook, clothing will be hung on them as follows: t*No. 1, overcoat; No. 2, extra clothing: No. 3, company uniform coat; No. 4, company uni- form trousers; No. 5, blouse; No. 6, fatigue trousers; No. 7, dress cuat; No. 8, dress trousers. “Canteens, tin cups, haversacks, meat cans and knives and forks will be kept in the com- pany’s store rooms and issued only when re- quired for use.” COME UP WITH YouR Dine. The team medals, i.e., the medals to be given ach man who won a place on the brigade team of 1890, with an additional bar for the winning of the Hilton trophy, will be realities in a lit- tle while if the battalion commanders will ouly shake things up a little. The amount which was asked from each man was small—ten cents—and there seems to be no good reason why there should be so much delay. The sec- ond and fifth battalions are active and will Probably be first toreport. Staff Sergeant Eu- gene Corvaizier is tireless in his effor ts to make the affair a success, and he will succeed, but he ought to be helped a little. ——~— A SAD CASE, A Harmless Insane Woman Put Out of Her Home. “This poor woman is insane but harmless,” said Policeman Sanford in the Police Court this morning when # colored woman named Kate Johnson was called on @ charge of va- grancy. “If that be true,” said the judge, “this poor woman is mcapable of committing any vioia- Tation of law. Has she any friends?” “Yes, sir,” responded the officer, “but they have no piace to keep her. Her and her brother own a house and he put her out. I guess he did it more to get the property than anything else.” “It's an outrage and disgrace,” renmrked the dge. “tor which no one seems to be respousi- le, that there is no place for the detention and temporary confinement of these iusane prison- ers. It's remarkable that some Provided for the indigent insane. place except the insane hospit cuitons means of getting there.” ‘The officer explained that there was no place put wer to the jadge’s inquiry the officer the station ecli was tue only place he kuew of where the woman can be detained.

The cabinet card receptions that were planned and never came to pass last year, on account of the deaths in the official families, ean all be held this season, The families of the Secretary of state and of the Secretary of the Navy being | in mourning will not give large receptions, but that fact need not deter the other cabinet ; members from extending the hospitalities of | their elegant homes to many gucrts and doing | the sociai honors of the admimstration that | fall to them.

Axacon's.—“Good Old Times,” by Wilson Barrett and Hall Caine. which will be presented for the first time in this city Mouday evening, is an English drama, which was first produced at the Princess ‘theater, London. It 1s a study of life as life is, not as it might be; not the life which can only be believed in when it is accom- panied by slow music and resounding speeches meant to tickle the cars. It contains passages of singular literary beauty, which remind .one of Hal: Ca 's books. Yet, with all its loftiness of purpose and the splendor of its dialogue, the drama is so intensely human that it ap; the sympathies of all classes. The scenery and mec hanical effects are very elaborate, ‘Ihe cast is a sirong one, being presented by Col. Wm. E.

Hanus’ Byuovu — ‘Tug Payvwaster.” — “The Paymaster,” which is on its American farewell tour prior to an ongagement in Europe, will be given at the Bijou next week. The play is full of thrilling incidents, one of the most exciting of which is the daring plungo of the hero into a river of real water. Mr. Dun- can b. Harrison has, since writing he Pay- master,” distinguished himself for recognizing the demands of popular taste by writing a play for John L, Sullivan. ‘Lhe Paymaster” ranks as one of the best Irish plays extant and its many interesting features insure large houses all week.
