the government inspection was held,

more tlian pleased with the Inspec

attitude of satisfaction after his task

tack aiul battallonUriir 'Oinrconrpmiy-
did outpost duty during the exercises.
Many people were present to see
the Inspection. The war agitation at
this time arouses the Interest of the
people and they turn out on mass
when drill exhibitions are given.
In one movemont where the cadets
were required to run forward and fall
Hat on the ground, a portion of a com

-mud puddle. Like true warriors, how
ever, they never wavered, but ex
ecuted the command as if they were
falling on the downiest of heather.
Throughout tho entire Inspection tho
same old spirit prevailed, which was
very noticeablo to those on tho slIo

tho grounds, some of the planned field
work was dispensed with.

ments Later.
Doctor Lyman and his assistants
have been demonstrating a .series of

tho happy stage of excitement to the
last stago of drunkenness. "Fifteen
centimeters of alcohol was sufficient
to kill a dog. Caffeine and adrenalin
