The ninth annual tournament held at Marshall Hall yesterday was, as Col. Mc- Kibben put it, “The greatest tourney by two which has ever been held in southern Maryland.” The grounds of the estate were peopled with the populace of Washington, Alexan- andria, Montgomery, Prince George's, Charles, St. Mary's, Loudoun and Fairfax counties. Marshall Hall was resplendent in chivalric trappings and heraldic devices. Gen. Jim Marshall, who on other occa- sions has won oratorical glories on the fleld of Marshall Hall, was to charge the knights, but missed the boat. Dr. L. R. C. Towles delivered the address. Capt. H. Eber Bos- well was chief marshal, and Benjamin Tubman, jr., and Edward’ Robey served as aids. The heralds were William Brawner, John Miller and Findley Dement, and the judges John W. Warring, R. A. Chapman, J. Samuel Turner, Dr. Towles, William D. Barry, William H. Trotter and one other, whose name the reporter could not get. Following is a list of the contestants, their titles and their scores: J. 8. Bryan, Mary- land Boy, 9rings; William Miller, Clinton, Ww. 'E. Ditey, Washington, 7; 0. H Thompson, Robin Hood, 6; T. S.

The coronation exercises were held in the pavilion at night. In the absence of Col. L. A. Wilmer, the advertised coronation orator, Col. Sanders took the stand. The winning knights and the ladies crowned by them were as follows: James S. Bryan, Prince George's county, first honor, and Miss Eline Young of Washington, «queen; ©. A. Spencer, Rrince George's county, sec- ond honor, and Miss Katie Hancock of Charles county, first maid; A. G. Smith, Prince George's county, third honor, apd Miss Lulu Underwood, Prince Geors county, second maid; William Underwood, Prince’ George’s county, fourth honor, end Miss Bertha Warren of Charles county, third maid; Julian Cox, Charles county, fifth honor, and Miss Cora Semmes of Washington fourth maid. The fourth maid is the daughter of Capt. William Semines of this city, and was one of the prettiest girls on the ground. She is a cousin to ‘he win- ning knight. The committee of arrangements com- prised Col. Joseph McKibben, Capt. A. M. Spear, D. C_ Ducker, G. R. Bryan and Phil- Up Berry. ‘The floor managers were E. EF. Hanson, Marshal} Clagett, William Lederer, Charles Cox and Edgar Manning. The Marshall Hall tournaments ure al- ways sem{-social, semi-political turnouts. Yesterday groups of southern Macviand politicians were scattered around. Silver and the tariff were side tracked. The county seat of Charles was the text under discussion. The’ Cox and Turner factions were represented and the republicans were out in force. Port Tobacco, La Plata and Chapel Point all had exponents of their strong points. Ex-Congressman Mudd was present, but was disinclined to talk. He thought that if the La Plata aed Port To- bacco wings of the democratic party did not flap together Charles wag safely re- publican. He would not express an opinion concerning the county seat contest, but said that “Charles’ county seat should be locsted somewhere in the United States.” ‘As this is a phrase used tn the argument cf the La Flata backers, it is construed as meaning that Mr. Mudd favors the selec- tion of that town. ——>_—_ ‘Thursday Evening on the Macalester. ‘The regular Thursday evening trips to Marshall Hall and Indian Head will be ing at 5 p.m. and the Macalester at 6:45 Returning, steamers leave Marshall Hall for home at 7:30 and 9:30 p.m. Passen- gers on any of the day boats can take the Macalester in the evening from Marshall Hall to Indian Head, if desired.

Glad to Get Home From Their E campment at Harper's Ferry. ‘The sixth battalion of the D. C. N. G. ar- rived home last night after a twelve days’ encampment at Harper's Ferry, and right glad they were to get back again. The ex- Periences they had while they were away were such as they will remember for many day to come. They either bad all the fun there was, or they didn’t have any. There was no half way about it. Up to the time of the storm of Monday night it was all right. The routine of camp life was regular and military discipline was maintained at all times, but there were plenty of chances for social recreation among the nice people who were making their summer headquarters about Harper's Ferry. There were dances and parties of all sorts and up to the time of the storm the work they did was admirable from a military standpoint. But when the storm broke over the camp it cleaned up things pretty effectually. The tents were all blown down and the property of the brave soldier boys was scattered far and wide over a large section of West Virginia. A number of their uniforms were ruined and much private property as well as accouterments belonging to the government was badly damaged by mud and water. ‘This unpleasant experience rather damped their military ardor and they decided to break camp a day sooner than they had planned, as it hardly seemed worth while to go to the pains of straightening camp up again. The evening before they started home they gave another and final dance at the Summit House. In the afternoon be- fore dark the battalion was marched to Bolivar Heights, where they had a sham battle and skirmish drill. After getting off the train here they marched up Pennsylvania avenue to the armory over Center market and unstrapped thefr guns and knapsacks, tired and sleepy, and anxious for a warm, dry bed. —_—— Will Do Double Duty.

Has it been your experience to call on a merchant who advertised “unheard of bar- gains” and then be politely informed «with Tegrets) that “we've just sold the last?” And were you not importuned to look at something else? These “un%eard of bar- gains,” like Leander, the Invisivle Prince, exist only in the imagination of the ro- mancer—but the romancer writes fairy tales for the edification of children, and the mer- chant who hopes to mislead you by flimsy pretexts has “sized you up” as cullible—as gullible as those who «wal liver’s Travels” as a truthful narrative of adventure, being too stupid to understand the political import of the travest: ‘There 1s one Furniture Washington who ts rarely :ver out of any- thing in his line, and if it saould happen that he cannot at once supply a cail in his line he will promise to get the aeedfal thing so soon as telegraph and fast express can bring {t. ‘That Merchant ts JOUN RUD- DEN, The Accommodator, who sclls every- thing in Housefurnishings on “Time” Pay- ments at “Bottom” Prices.
