With all the military pomp that nearly 100
companies of the national guard4 of the
various states of the union can "muster" up
the oncnmmnont of the National Cotnpotlllvo
Drill association will open nt the old fair
grounds tomorrow. It will bo n grand

Tlio list of the military companies , the de
tails or the encampment and everything per
taining to the tournatnont'havo , from tlmo to
time , been published in Tuu BEG the past
few wcolis.
The old fair ground * In In now mantle of
spring , which has witnessed many attractive
sights , will never view anything prettier
than the military encampment. There It nu
indefinable ! charm nbout n military encamp
ment and the present one , wliicU will bo
made up ot tbo crack'companies of the
various sections of tbe country , will bo richly
endowed with everything calculated to please
the eye und attract the fancy.
The various companies como here for tbo
purpose of competition in the different mili
tary maneuvers , not for experience , as is the
cuso of thonnnunl encampments of tbo Blato
militia everywhere. Their praotlco drills
nro thorough and urdurous.
The whlto tents have all been pitched
nnd are ready for occupancy by the blue-
coated soldiery. Then the soldier rendezvous
will Imvo tlio appearance of a military en
campment. Still , thoro' Is ono thing Inciting
nnd that Is n nuino for the camp. The
guards are conjecturing what name will bo
given It. Some nro In laver of calling It
Camp Omaha , while others desire another
name. This will be decided later.
On the Arrival of Compnnlci
One of thn features of the opening day wll
bo the struct parade. Each company as it
arrives nt the Union depot will bo received
by a squad of tbo Oinuhu Guards , who will
assist and care for the luggage and then
escort the visitors to headquarters , pre
paratory to the parailo through the principal
streets.
The companies thnt will arrive today nnd
tomorrow will have splendid opportunities
for "horso play" In camp until tlio tourn
ament opens. Then they will Imvo n check
put upon their enloty , ana hucomo EOttlod
ilown to the serious icspousibllltlos of their
mission ami the contnmplullon of unsatis
factory rations.
Many pcoplo tinvo no Idea vhat it is to bo
In a military camp. This week , however , n
good opportunity will bo afforded all to see
a military camp as it really Is , not inflicted
with the privations and vicissitudes of wur
at all , but under the rigid discipline of mili
tary government.
JUllltlu Strength , , r tlio United State * .
There nro now in the United State ? nbout
115.000 enlisted mid commlbsloned militiamen ,
nnd they , us guards , embody Washington's
recommendation to the governors of the
original thirteen states , lie suggested the
adoption ot n proper pcaco establishment in
which caroshould bo taken to place tbo militia
throughout tbo union on a proper and efli-
clont footing. Washington foresaw the
great possibilities of the militia and Its im
portance to the country at largo when ho de
clared that "the militia must be considered
ns the palladium of our security In case of
hostility. "
The country has passed throuKh the "gen
eral muster day" period into tbo present
national guard system , although tbo law ro-
gordlng "general mUsterday'1 is still on Iho
statute bonks , but , as will bo evidenced this
weak nt the encampment , tbo ofllcloncy of
volunteer military companies has caused
the law to bo Ignored , and it will bo scon
that many of tuu states can furnish men , in
case of war , who will comparn favorably
with the regular army organization.
Liioutonant Colonel Mulfurd , president of
'
the association , believes the 'encampment
will bo tbo largest ever bold In the country ,
lie says that the companies that will bo here
this week will assure an encampment thnt
will bo a credit to Omaha and an attraction
which will bring thousands of visitors to the
city , all of whom will leave pleased with what
they have scon nnd with nouo but words of
pralso for tbo city.

The IndlannpolU Light Artillery , which Is
conceded to bo ono of the Illicit drilled com
panies in the country , will arrive iu Omaha
iiuout noon and proceed nt once to Iho
cnmp. The hlstorv of the battery follows.
At the organization thn battery was named
the Indianapolis Lltrht Artillery , it nt once
secured the services of Lieutenant Hamilton.
U. S. A. , for an Instructor. It had made
( such decided progress In drill by the spring
of 1SS3 thnt It outcrcd In four classes of contest -
test at the encampment of that year. It won
n unzo In each drill , which was n powerlul
nccntlvo totho members.
In the spring of IbSI the battorv was
challenged by the Cincinnati Light. Artillery.
The mooting took place nt Klchmoud , where
a clefMi-cut victory was scored , the Cincin
nati iirllllor.vroon falling behind 20 per cent.
Just after that drill Captain Johnston re
signed. Ho was succeeded by Lieutenant
Curtis , who had begun ns n private nnd econ
promoted. Lieutenant Curtis had commadod
"tbo team" in nil the victorious drills , ao he
naturally enough took the captaincy.
In 183(1 ( the Llchl Arllllcry entered three
drills ut the Lafnyotto encampment and
won first prize in each , t-'orhaps no other
company over nrndo n similar record in ono
week. In 1837 the great national encamp
ment at Washington was announced. The
mon had been looking forward to a visit to
tbo capital nnd were naturally onlhuslastlr ,
hut had their ardor dampened when
informed that iho drill would bo u mounted
pintoon , The battery had no horses , but
"
was soon at work , "and appeared upon the
drill Held nt Washington In magnlllconl
condition , it carried the day and received
llrst prize from the hands of General
Sheridan.
At Nushvlllo In 1SSS tbo battery again ap
peared In tbo south to meat the noted batter
ies of that section. This drill was one of
great perfection on the part of all competi
tors , hut victory once moro parched upon In
dianapolis' banners. In IS'JO , at Kansas City ,
the battery appeared In now territory , nnd
before an entirely new sot of judges. Its
work was so superior that It easily look llrst
place. This closed Its series of drills. In
which it won thirioou prizes and never meta
a genuine defeat.
Its Olllcers.
As already moniloncd. the Indianapolis
Light Artillery bus made but few changes iu
its odlcors. Gcorgo W. Johnston wus the
Ih-jt captain , and was succeeded by James B.
Curtis in 1831. Captain Curtis has been nu
cnthuslaillo artilleryman for years , having
always commanded the famous drill team in
its victories. There Is n mutual conlldonco
oxUtlng between him and his men which
gooj a long way toward bringing victory to
their banners. In addition to having inado
a reputation In military nffuirs , he
has also attained cminouco as a lawyer
and gained prominence- n politician ,
having boon twice elected to the general
assomhly. Dr. D. A. Thompson , Iho senior
llrst lieutenant , has long been an active
militiaman and president of the civil organi
zation of the Light artillery. Ho Is also ad
jutant of the First Hegimoiit artillery. Ho
was unanimously elected to his present
position to succeed Lieutenant C. L. DoWUt ,
who served the battery faithfully for several -
oral years , but did not romustor on account
of business affairs. Dr. Thompson is promi
nent in society In Indianapolis , being also
recognized as ono of the most promising
physicians In Iho stato. Ho has attained
eminence ns an oculist , which specialty ho
practices in connection with his father.

Two weeks ago Saturday we advertised a grand special sale _ .
men's all wool suits at five dollars a suit. We had eighteen hundred of
these suits , and in the ordinary course of human events , it would have
been a bjg thing to have sold them all out in a week. We began the
sale at nine o'clock in the morning , with less than twenty people wait-
ng. At ten we had a crowd at noon a crush at three a jam and
at six a mob , which increased with every moment during the evening ,
until we v/ere compelled to close our doors several times , the crowds
Deing greater than we could handle. So great a success was this sale
that when we closed our store for the day , we closed it on a sale of
over thirteen hundred of these "wonderful suits , and the largest day's
business in gJ cl P-a.r.fBnt.5u our llouse > th.at we've ever experienced
The following Monday and Tuesday saw the balance of these suits
closed out slick and clean. Instructions were immediately telegraphed
our representative in New York to buy another big lot of these wonderful - \
derful
He has followed instructions in a refreshing manner. He has ex
ceeded our most sanguine expectations. He has bought and shipped
us nearly eighteen hundred as handsome suits of clothes as you'll find
in any store in the land. The suits on sale before , are not in it. These
suits are all wool every thread. There are cheviotsT rTomTespuns ,
flannels. There are sacks with round corners , square cut saclrsf
There are plain colors , hair lines , pin stripes , pin heads , checks ,
plaids , mixtures , pepper and salts. Nine dollars would be a low
price for the poorest suit in the lot , while ten and twelve dollars would1
be the'prices at which the majority of them would be sold at under
ordinary circumstances. Today and until the last suit is sold , you
can have your own free choice of the entire magnificent assortment for
We guarantee them all wool. Need we say more ?
