ASSAULTAT RMS AT THE ROYAL MILITARY COLLEGE. The Work of the Cadets Was Very Fine--The Boxing Bouts Were Vigorous--Cadet Watts Was Knocked Out By Cadet Gibson. The annual assault-at-arms was held in the Royal Military College gvm- nasium, on Wednesday evening, and was a complete success. The pew building was filled, upstairs and down, with the friends and relatives of the cadets, from near and far, to sce the spectacle. The officers and their wives and some of the visiting military men had seats along the ground floor, and the gallery was fillel with city peo- ple. The exhibition given by the ca- dets was one of the best they have ever attempted. The entertainment opened about 5.30 o'clock, a spar pillow fight be: tween Hanson, for "C"" company, and McLennan, for "DP" company, being the first number. This was very amusing, and showed what good con- dition the boys were in, from their gym. work, The second number best of the evening. dets, nearly all of a size, dressed in the natty gym. suit of the college, formed the free gym. squad, and their work was certainly a revelation to many present. They went through some very stiff tests with apparent ease, doing every thing as one man. What caught the people most was the human towers, each composed of twenty men. This is a magnificent sight, and cannot be beaten or equalled by any college in America to-day. The R.M.C. has one of the best gym. squads this year it has had in some time, and that is saying quite a little, as the soldier boys have nev- er been defeated. The next item on the programme was very interesting, especially to the sterner sex. The boxing bouts were all fine exhibitions of the manly art. The men in all classes fought as if they meant it. The bouts all were to go three two-minute rounds, but the feather-weight class, which went three minute-and-a-half rounds, Major Scott was referee, and Major de Bury and Prof. Martin, judges. ' The first bout was the novice class, between Cadets Fisken and Meredith. The men were to weigh in at 146 pounds, Fikken was the lighter man, and his opponent also had the ad- vantage of reach. The little fellow put up a strong fight the first round, but the last two went to Meredith, who was given the decision. The next bout was the middle- weight, finals, fought by C.S.M. Gib- son and Cadet IL. H. Watts; the men to weigh in at 156 pounds. This bout was also to go three rounds, but was settled by Gibson in the first. Gibson was the smaller man, and fought in a crouching attitude. Watts was tall and had a long reach, but the clever foot work of his opponent kept him well back. The men started in well from the gong, Watts landed to the body, Gibson landed a left to the body and a stiff right jab to the point of the chin, stretching Watts on the floor. On the stroke of the eighth second, he arpse in a very groggy condition, and could just stand by hanging on to the ropes. Gibson did not press his mao, and waited until he came back, when he landed anoth- er left jab to the ear, which put Watts down to take nine strokes of the hig bell. He came back again but could handly stand. He tried to de- fend himself, but could not. Ten sec onds before the gong sounded for the first round, Gibson landed a left to the body, followed by a quick left jab which put Watts down for the count, He was in a very groggy con- dition after the fight and had to be assisted out by his seconds The lightweight class, between Ca- dets Watson and" E. M. Waits, was one of the best mills of the evening, and was won by Watson on points. The winner was the smaller mau, but was-a bunch of. science, his blows coming in with lots of speed behind them, and landing in telling places. Watts had a good advantage in reach, but could not use it to advan. tage. as Watson would fight in close to him. Watson repeatedly used a short left jab to the body with telling effect. * He would! swing a terrific right, and follow, almost at the same time, with this distressing left jab in the wind. The first round went to Watson. The men sparred around closely for a few seconds, but soon came together and a few stiff ones were landed by each. Watson then seemed to get his head, and used hiz man up considerably dur- ing the round. In the second round Watts improved a little towards the first of it, but a stiff right swing to the jaw and a Wonderful Miracles Worked By Mighty Healing Power of" Catarrhozone In the discovery of this wonderful curative medicine the entire race is gi freedom from Catarrhal disease.

Near the end of the round a fierce right jab to the face caused the blood te run, the only blood drawn during the evening "Beiinie's"" victory was a popular one with all present. These bouts were followed by excellent exhibition of Indian club swinging that was greatly enjoved. The sabre review exercises put on by eighteen men, under B.S.M. Carson, were also greatly enjoyed. The men all handled the sabres in good style. After this, the feather-weight pugil- iste, Nordheéimer and Green, appeared to go their three one-minute-and-a- hall, rounds. The fight went to Nord- heidher, on points. The lightine was very loose, all through, very few tell- ing blows being struck The last fight was the event of the The heavy-weight class, be- tween Cadets Hutton and Ringwood. These two men fought for the cham- pionship in the same class last vear, Hutton winning out. Hutton weighs about 182 pounds, is over six feet tall, and has an exceptionally long reach. Ringwood weighed in at 175 pounds, is short and stocky, and is only possessed of the average reach. Both men have good science, using free footwork throughout the bout, The judges gave ghe decision to Ring- wood, on points, and it was a popu- lar victory. The victor kept Hutton on the run by fighting in close to him, barring his long, terrific right swings, which would have proved dan- gerous, had they landed. In the first round the men came to- gether from the start. Hutton landed a few to the head. but Ringwood kept landing a short left jab, with lots of steam behind it, to the ribs and wind, and it worried his husky opponent sparring than in any other round. very much. Near the close of the round, Ringwood landed a few telling jabs to the face. The gong sounded as the men were clinched in the centre of the ring. In the second round Ringwood went in like a lion from the start and landed telling blows right and left to Hutton's face and body. Hutton seemed to become groggy from the onslaught, and once the ropes only saved him from going down, from a straight right to the face. This was Ringwood's round. In the last round both men seemed a little tired. They did more open Both men seemed to be looking for an opening to land a knock-out. Hutton succeeded in getting in one good one, but Ringwood was there for © more. This round broke about even and the judges awarded the fight to Ring- wood. This was one of the best mills ever pulled offi at the college. The last number was the horse squad, and they certainly did them- selves proud by their work, After this the prizes, four challenge cups, were presented to the winners of the box: ing bouts by Brigadier General Bu- chan. There were many visitors from outside places present, among them being noticed : Sir Montague Allan, Gen. Buchan, Col, Dunbar, Mr. and Mrs. T. L. Morrisey, Mr. Wancklyn, Mrs. Holt, Randall Davidson, Mont- real; Mr. and Mrs. Crerar, Hamilton; Mr. and Mrs. Bullock, Gananoque; Mr. and Mrs. E. R.

Either the steamer Caspian or North King will be running for Victoria day, and the other will start a month later. The steamer Rosedale cleared, about ten o'clock, this morning, for Oswego, where a cargo of coal will be taken on, for Toronto. The tug Frontenac made a trip over from Garden Island, this morning, and returned with a cargo of withs for the Calvin company. Capt. Chauncey Daryeau is having the schooner Ford "River put into shape for the season. The vessel will be ready for a trip, in a few days. United States Steamboat lnspectors Hobert Chestnut and Capt. Molther, arrived from Cape Vincent, to-day, and will inspect the steamers New ls- land Wanderer, Islander, Ottawa and Ramona. The initial trip of the steamer Pierre- pont, 'to Cape Vincent, on Wednes- day, was a most successiul one. Very little ice was experienced, and good time was made. Quite a few passen- gers came over on the return trip. The 85S. Henry R. James, oi the Rutland Transit company's fleet, Og- densburg, N.Y., has been sold to the Quebec Transportation company, to be converted lato a car ferrfhoat be- tween Quebec and Levis. The steam- er will clear for Quebec as soon as the St. Lawrence canals are open. The steamer Aletha will likely start on her run irom Picton to this city on Monday. There is still some ice in the bay but not enough to hin der the little steamer from getting through. Men have been at work overhauling her for some time. She was inspected by the government in- spectors to-day. Openings Of Navigation. During the past twelve years the dates of the opening of navigation in Kingston harbor ve been as fol- lows : . April ith April. 10th an| GRAND OPERA HOUSE RURAL DRAMA WRITTEN BY A COBOURG MAN. Produced By the Nellie Kennedy Company--The Plot Well Work- ed Out--An Outline of the Play Given. There was a fair-sized andience at the Grand Opera House, last evening, to, witness the production of "lhe Marriage Of 'Lisabeth,"' a play writ ten by a Canadian author, Lawrence E. Johnson, of Cobours. "The Marriage Of "Lisabeth" is a rural comedy, the scene of the play being laid in New Jersey, and there is an atmosphere of simple country life throughout the entire four acts. "Virginia Torrington," the daughter of an old-fashioned Yankee farmer, while' attending college in a neighbor- ing city, meets "Jed Lloyd," a young civil engineer, and incidentally falls in love with him. He persuades her to elope with him and deceives her by a mock - marriage, bribing an impe- cunious actor named West to imper- sonate a clergyman and perform the ceremony. Shortly after this he de serts her and she returns to her father, who knows nothfhg at all con cerning the eclopement. This is the situation at the beginning of the play. During the first act it trans- pires that "Lloyd" has secured a contract to construct a road through the section of the country in which the Torrington farm is located and so he again meets Virginia. In the se- cond act they have a strone emotion- al scene in which the girl demands that he make the fact of their mar- riage publicly known. He refuses to do so and tells her that she is not legally his wife. 'Lisabéth, who is a cousin of Virginia, and the character around which the plot of the play re- volves, overhears the quarrel and de- cides to take a hand. With her sweet- heart, 'Jim Wakely," and the actor West, who has by. this time developed a conscience, she decoys Lloyd into a game of forfeits at a birthda- party and persuades him to go through the wedtling ceremony with Virginia, "just for fun." When it is over, she tells him that he is legally married, as the squiré who officiated, bad, as she says, '"'a legal right to per: form births, marriages and deaths." To cater to the popular taste for melo-drama, there is a real pile-driver introduced in the next scene but it has no special bearing on the plot. The third and last acts are devoted to the courtship' and wedding of 'Lisabeth, whose course of Jove runs smoother than Virginia's. The co- medy element predominates throurh: out and. there is a laugh every min- ute, The principal roles in the piece are taken by Nellie Kennedy, who is abl assisted by Mazie Hallet, Lillian Armi- tage, Jennie Delevan and Sara Armi- tage. The other parts in the cast were taken bv R. C. Stout, George Hayes, Miliord Slack, Millard Vin- cont and others. The® spucialties were well taken. The Armitage sisters gave a Spanish dance and a skirt dance and also sang pleasingly. The conversationalist art- ists, Hallet and Slack, were well re. ceived, as were the comedy acrobats, the Burdette Bros. Nellie Kennedy sang sweetly "Dear Louise" and "Baby Buntine."

De- censed appeared to be in her usual good health during the day, and al: ter eating her dinner, retired to have a sleep, when she was taken suddenly ill, and died before medical assistance could 'be obtained.
