Cadets Will Get in Shape for

Inspector.
[Special to The Times-Dispatch. 1
Lexington, Va.. April 9?Special
spring drills begin at the Virginia Mil?
itary institute tliis week. The weather
for the past month lias been so bad. and
Wie raradc ground has frequently boon
In si.ch condition, that little drilling
could be done. In spite of these ob?
stacles, the cadets have worked hard
at the limited number of drills which
have been possible, and the command?
ant has pronounced them proficient in
company and battalion drill, both close
and extended order.
The special drills were to ha%'e boon
begun on Friday, but the weather pre?
vented; consequently they will betaken
up as soon a,s possible this week, and
will be pushed rapidly until the com?
ing of the army inspector on April IS.
Those drills compris.e first aid i? the
wounded and litter drill; signal drill,
including the use of flags, heliog%tph
and cavalry buzzer; artillery drill, in?
cluding the use of howitzers, breech
loading rifles and Catling guns; topog-' |
raphy, including position, road and
reconnaissance sketches; practical mil?
itary engineering, including the con- <
st ruction of trenches, obstacles and
bridges, and field exercises, including
the pitching of wall and shelter tents
and the forcing of defiles.

tute this year. The institute has never

partment ae a distinguished Institution;
and the reports of the inspectors are
always a source of gratification to the
cadet corps of the West Point of the
South. This spring, even though in
numbers the battalion is not as stvong
as formerly, on account of the dismis?
sal of tho third class in February,
there is no doubt that the Virginia
Military institute will again be desig?
nated as distinguished.
Beginning on Monday, there will be
a morning drill period from S until 9
o'clock, in addition to the regular af?
ternoon period. This will be continued
until April 19. With two drills a day
the cadets will he able to overcome the

in Westmoreland county jail and
awaiting trial for the murder of Cap- j
tain Allen Horsey nnd? First Mate .lohn |
Adams, on the oyster sloop Ruth Irene,
In the Potomac River last January
The crime was committed off Colonial
Beach, near the boundary line between
Maryland and Virginia. The murder?
ers escaped to the Virginia shore and
were captured near Leedstown, on tho
Rappabannock River, ?and committed I
to jail at MontrOS8, the county seat of
Westmoreland, The original compact
between Maryland arid Virginia, framed
in 17S5. and ratified the following year,
provides that all piracies, crimes and :
offenses committed in any part of the 1
Potomac River w.'thln the limits 61 \
Virginia, or In any part thereof where I
tue lino of division between the two |
States may be doubtful, by any persons i
not citizens of the Commonwealth of
Virginia against the editions of Mary?
land, shall be tried In the court of the '
State of Maryland, which hath legal [
cognizance ot .such offense-, and the
Black and Jenkins award, ratified in i
1S7S. provides that "the low water i
mark on the south shore of the Po
lOiriac River, to which Virginia has a i
rlglu in the soil, is to be measured
from low water mark at one headland
to low water mark at another, without
following indentations, bays, creeks,
inlets or affluent rivers." As none of
the parties concerned in the murder,
so far as can lie learned, was ever a
resident of the State of Virginia, and
as Captain Horsey, the murdered mas?
ter of the oyster sloop, was a citizen
of Maryland, residing al Fairmouht,
oh the Rastern Shore, and as It \s
doubtful whether the murder was co'iri
mittud In Hie waters of Virginia or In
the waters of Maryland, the Governor (
of Maryland some time ago sein a i
refpiisltlon to the Governor of Vir- j
glnia, asking that the prisoners
charged with the murder be delivered j
to the officers of the ?tate ol Maryland i
for trial in the courts of that Stnte, I
according to the provisions of the j
boundary compact. On being Informed ;
of the reoulsltlon, Conway Baker,]
Commonwealth's attorney for West?
moreland, wrote to the Governor of
Virginia, asking that the reqtiisliion
be not honored, presumably upon the
ground that the honoring Of Ihn reepil
sition would Imperil the riparian
Oyster rights of the citizens of West?
moreland in that part of the waters
of the Potomac River where the mur?
der was committed; and the Governor
of Virginia has declined to honor tiie
requisition till the mattet can be judi?
cially determined. The A t tornoy-t Ion -
oral of Maryland has given notice that
he will appear before his honor. Judge
