Captain Tuteur Continues Drills—Election Tonight.

The local armory was again packet Wednesday evening by young men oi the public schools .and about the city to obtain further instruction in military work under the able guidance o:’ Captain Tuteur. Those who have attended every drill of this sort, since the inauguration of them, are loud in their praise for the young men who are taking such an interest in them and showing so much willingness to learn. A great deal of advancement has been made in a very short space of time, which speaks well for Captain Tuteur as well as his pupils. Several married men were in the ranks. So far the men have not been given guns with which to drill in the manual of arms. The different facjags and the squad movement have taken up most of the time. Following the drill Capt. Tuteur asked each man to 'be present again this evening at 7 o’clock when further instruction will be given. The election of two officers, the first and"second lieutenants, will be held this evening and as is customary, each member of the volunteer company will be allowed to vote for the men whom they wish to fill these offices.
