COUNTING HIM OUT.
DISORDER ON PARADE.
Press Association. AUCKLAND, March 10. The conclusion of the parade of B Company of the Third Eegiment at the Drill Hall last night was marked by a disorderly demonstration on the part of a large section of'the corps. Exception had been taken to the methods of one staff officer in dealing with the lax conduct of a number of men, several of whom were slow to carry out the movements ordered. As the company was being dismissed someone started to "count him out," and a strong chorus took up the chant. "Phis was followed by a vigorous hooting, and the men left the parade ground in noisy disorder. The occurrence will, no doubt, form the subject of enquiry.
