The "Hickory Military Opera
Band." which paraded with the fire
men yesterday afternoon, attracted
as much attention as a whole regi.
ment of soldiers. With the gorge
ously arrayed drum major, they
number twenty-five, and present a
striking appearance in their hand
some g-ay uniforms. Their evolu
tions are something marvellous, be
ing performed without a word of com
maud simply a note or two from the
tin whistle of the majestic dram
major, and the way the latter twirled
his baton took tbe breath away from
everybody that saw him. The band
is a leading feature at the Encamp
ment and their music is worth going
along distance to hear. After the
parade of the firemen the band
marched down Princess street to
the Orton, where they went through
various wonderful evolutions, and
then played several pieces, wind
ing up with the soul-stirring
ma lc of "Dixie," which brought
forth round after round of cheers
from the firemen and tbe large crowd
of spectators After the music, calls
were made for (iov. Fowle, and His
Excellency appeared on the balcony
of the hotel and made a few remarks
recessarily brief, for the members of
the band were nnder engagement to
play at the Opera House and their
supper was waiting. The firemen
gave three cheers and a tiger for the
band, which was responded to by the
latter with "What's the matter with
the firemen? They're all right!"
The Hickory Band is a good one,
beyond the shadow of a doubt, and
its dram major is immense.

A ten-year old boy named Enoch
Sullivan, colored, living on Tenth
between Caatle and Queen streets,
waa drowned yesterday afternoon in
tbe river near the foot of Orange
street. The boy was wading in the
doek with two other boys, and step
ped Into a place where the water waa
over his bead. He rose to the surface
twice, but there was no one
near enough to reach him. As soon
as the accident was made known,
several persons went out to try and
recover tbe body, and about an hour
afterwards it was found. The Coro
ner was notified and viewed the bod, y
but an inquest was not held, and the
remains of the unfortunate boy were
taken to the home of his parents.
There may be a general holiday
to-day. How would yon like itr
Wlll Met r.r.dr
Mayor Fowler yesterday had an in
terview with Capt. Divine to see if
arrangements could be made for ears
to bring the troops to the eity for a
parade today, bat it was found im
possible to arrange the matter, and
so all idea of having the parade bad
to be abandoned.
Those who did not visit Camp Lati
mer yesterday missed a rare treat. It
was decidedly the most interesting
day of the Encampment, aside from
the ordinary every-day routine. The
different companies went to work
early in the morning and straight
ened everything up about their quar
ters in order to be in readiness when
their Cominander-in-Chief should
make his inspection. And it was
astonishing to the uninitiated how
quickly the camp was rehabili
tated. It is certainly extraordinary
-nid the average soldier can
move when it is auuou i hmt. his
superior officer is coming to inspect
his quarters. Every little piece o
paper, or stick, or even a hole in the
grouud in front of his tent which
may have an unsightly appearance f
is set to rights. The paper or stick
is picked up and spirited away, and
the hole is smoothed over. He
goes into his tent and makes
one or two spasmodic scram
bling movements which forcibly re
minds one of an industrious rooster
trying to feed eight or ten hens by
scratching among a pile of cobble
stones, and lo! behold! tbe quarters
change, a transformation takes place,
and for the life of you, you can't tell
how it was done. Only the soldiers
can accomplish the feat. Yet, when
Oov. Fowle and his staff went the
rounds they were compelled to com
pliment the troops on the appearance
of cleanliness that prevailed. Every
company had their guns stacked, and
stacked right, too; none of your care -less,
don't-care-how-I get'em up bus
iness. Not a speck of dirt or rust
showed its awkward ugliness. The
Govemor was more than proud of
hi- gallant brigade, and well he may
be. And not only the Governor, but
the entire State should be glad to lay
claim to such a body of trustworthy
defenders. They are a mighty power
in the cause of right and justice.
Immense crowds packed every east
bound train and poured into the
camp in squads, companies, battal
ions and brigades. When the time
for the grand review rolled around,
there were at least four thousand
spectators on the parade ground.
Every sixe, color, condition, and al
most every nationality were to be
seen iniantile representatives oooed
their approbation, the omnipresent
small boy with his double system of
electrical, high tension nerves,
scrambled about in a fruitless en
deavor to be everywhere at one and
the same time Even Italy was rep
resented by "peanut candy." The
lowly as well as the highly favored,
gathered to do honor to the N. C. S.
G., by their presence. About 4 o'clock
the companies began to march to
the rendczTons to the inspiring sound
of drum and hand. When all were in
the field the Governor and his staff
and the Brig. General and staff,
stationed ihemselvei, with the
colors of the State and
the Union, in front of the Surgeon
Qeneral's headquarters, the spot se
lee. ted for them to review the brigade
and the signal was then given the
State Guard to move, by placing a
small blue flag, with the dear old
name of North Carolina inscribed on
its silky folds, in front. of the review
era. The brigade moved to tho sound
of soul-stirring music. Every man
stepped as if be were filled with
double-distilled patriotism, and he
was. The marching was superb,
and everybody must have left the
eamp with a hearty God-speed
for every member composing the
State Guard. Every man was there
of his own will, free to go or free to
stay; no despots' haughty command
had assembled them; not a man
among them was compelled to lift the
hat or bend the suppliant knee to a
living creature; duty, their country
and their God were all in all; every
man was a king, every king a soldier,
every soldier a citixen of a common
country, and a member of the Guard
of North Carolina.
Daring the review tbe following of
ficial document was read:

Wrightsviile, N. C, July 16, 1889.
Circular No 2.
The Commander in Chief an
nounces to the State Guard that the
Fayetteville Centennial Committee
has extended an invitation to the
entire Guard to be present at the
Centennial to take place in the city
of Fayetteville, on the 21st day of
November next. He earnestly hopes
as many companies of the Guard as
ean conveniently do so will attend at
this Centennial Anniversary of the
ratification of the Constitution of
the United States by the State of
North Carolina.
By command of the Commander
in Chief. J as. D. Glenn,
Adjutant General.
After the parade was over, the la
dies, or at least large numbers of
them, went on a tour of inspection
through the camp, just to see how
the boys 4 kept house." The Gover
nor and his staff were also photo
graphed in front of Gen. Anthony's
headquarters. The ladies wandered
about the camp under the escort of
gay soldiers, until the witching hour
of twilight was heralded by the cheer
ing katydid.
The day was one that will be re
membered. One that will never fade
from the memory of the participants.
The State Guard did well, and the
people are proud of them in every
respect. When they meet next year
it will be under dfferent circum
stances and in a different camp. Big
guns will play an important part in
the duties of the soldiers. That they
will acquit themselves in a commend
able manner goes without saying.

Mr.W. P. Baugham, an honorary

times in succession, and yesterday
morning a competitive drill was held
to decide who was the best drilled
man in the comrtany and entitled to
the medal. Theudges were Lieuten

Lieutenant Bain, of the Goldsboro

Hon. Alfred Rowland visited

The Maxton Guards received

for the review. The helmets are

appearance.
The Governor and his staff and
the Governor's Guard were photo

A soldier was swinging placidly

he accidentally made a slip and fell

the scene and it was heartily enjoyed.
It is to be hoped that the Wil

Fayetteville Independent Light In
fantry will treat the boys to another
exhibition drill. When they com
bine and drill as one company, as
they did Sunday evening last, it can't
be beat. That drill is a camp topic.
The Edgecombe Guards had a
regular old fashioned Edgecombe
barbecue yesterday and invited the
captains ol the First Regiment.to dine
with them. The Star reporter had a
tieket to the succulent and delight
ful feast, which he pronounced just
"awfully nice." In fact, every time he
sees a hog of tender years he will re-
Xbe Licile Tycoon.
The largest audience ever assem
bled at the Opera House was seen
last night, and the smoothness and
regularity with which everything
passed off was most marked. Gover
nor Fowle occupied a box at the invi
tion of the W. L I., with Colonels T
W Strange, Benehan Cameron and
Williams of his staff, and many
called to pay their respects during the
performance
The costumes of the members of
the Little Tycoon Company were
much admired, and received many
compliments.
The Hickory Military Band kindly
offered their Services, and the sweet
music which they rendered Derore
and after the performance was much
enjoyed. One of the pleasant occa
sions of the evening was the cornet
solo by Prof. R. J. Herndon, and the
loud and enthusiastic applause with
which he was greeted could not fail
to be most gratifying.
The Little Tycoon Opera Company
are to be congratulated upon the ad
mirable manner in which they pre
sented their play, and deserve the
thanks of all for furnishing a most
entertaining play.
The proceeds of the performance
last night were undoubtedly large
and quite a snug sum must have been
realized .
A Refutation.
The following is a refutation by
the First Regiment of an artiole that
appeared in the Rocky Mount Plain
dealer, charging the soldiers with
rude behavior while the train bear
ing them was passing through Rocky
Mount:

Camp Latimer, July 15, 1889.
At a meeting of the eommissioned
officers of the First Rear! ment N. C. 8.
G., this day assembled, at therequest
of Capt. J. C. Powell, commanding
the Edgecombe Guards, Co. A. said
regiment, an article appearing in the
Rocky Mount Plaindealer July 1880,
reflecting upon said company, was
presented for their consideration and
action.
Capt. Powell requested that the
truth of the charges should be inves
tigated by the assembled officers of the
regiment. Therefore, various witnesses
from other companies than tbe Edge
combe Guards appeared before the
said meeting and gave their testimony
After careful investigation of the
matter contained in said artiole. it
was the unanimous opinion and judg
ment of the assembled officers that
the said charges are without founda
tion in truth, and do great injustice
to the Edgecombe Guards and to the
State Guard, of which it is a part.
