OMfMpondenee of The Robesonian. West Raleigh, Oct. 24-The first of the series of the college entertainments was held in Pul- len Ha on the evening 01 uc tober 14. The entertainment was furnished by the Beulah Buck Quartet Company, of the Alkahest Lyceum Company of Atlanta, Ga. The music was extraordinarily good and was enjoyed thoroughly by all those present. The competitive drill which was to have been held on Wed nesday of fair week at the State fair grounds was postponed, as the proper arrangements could not be made witn the fair au thorities. It will be held next Monday afternoon at the usual drill hour on the parade grounds of the college. The contest promises to be an interesting one, for each company enters the contest with the determina tion to win first honors. The winning cempany has the priv ilege of carrying the colors throughout the year, and also the privilege of being the first company "dismissed" each afternoon. After returning from Lexing ton, Va., where they were de feated by the V. M. I. team, our football team got down to business, and began to play foot ball the real A. and M. style. On Thursday of fair week A. and M. met pigskin tossers from Bucknell University, of Penn sylvania. This was one of the beat games of football ever pull ed off on the home grounds. A. and M. was the victor by a score of 6 to 0. The only touchdown was scored in the first quarter, and the remainder of the game was marked by some excellent playing by both teams, A. and M. being in danger only a few times. In defeating this team A. and M. can be classed among the biggest teams in the country Bucknell only a few days ago defeated the Lehigh team and played Princeton to a tie, so we see where A. and M. stands in the football world. Our next game will be flayed on next Saturday afternoon on the home grounds, with the University of Tennessee. A. and M. has never played this team before, but she hopes to come out victorious, W. H.

To the Editor of The Robesonian: In response to "Happy Jack's" request, I will tell a few things that I encoantered during the three years I served in the war of the sixties. I entered the war in 1861. The first battle I helped to fight was near Goldaboro, led by Capt. Pope, a great and noble leader, who stood by his men in thick and thin. In the first bat tle at Goldsboro, myself and a friend, Andrew Grimsley, were left alone where the balls were falling thick and fast as drops of rain. By the help of the good Lord we escaped unharmed. The battle at Charleston, on Marsie's Island, lasted fr two days and nitrhts. manv lives being lost. I was among the number appointed to remove the wounded off the field. The upper and under decks of the steamer were tilled with wounded men who were there dying, away from their dearones at home. It fills my heart with sadness to say we had to wade through blood four inches deep to get the dead and wounded on board the steamer. The great blow-up at Peters burg was as hard a fight as I ever saw. On the same ground was another seven-days' fight It was a sight to see the men killed in this fight. Moving on to a railroad not far from Petersburg, the Southern men captured 3,500 Yanks. In another fight Gen. Lee charged his men to lead the charge. They would not if he went, so he stayed and they went on and in ten minutes were defeated. Lee then said, "Had I gone we would have won." He then fell on his knees and prayed to God to help them through the battle that was to follow. And when the battle was over, 'twas Lee's army that had won the victory. Lee was a brave and noble Christian man, always good to the men he led. The world admired him. His country held him in high esteem. His people loved him. The South centered her affection on him because he was her very own, because he was her champion de fender through years of bloody conflict. To him duty was the noblest word in the English lan guage.
