Mans Democratic Club had an invitation
from the washington Democrats to attend
tbeIr demonstration last evening, and con.
seouently they mustered at their head.

Sv Kramer's band marched TO the B. & o.
dsnot attracting the attention OF oil
whn we're ION the streets. The
club mustered eighty strong, but II the re-
mark Is allowed was not composed wholly
OF Young men. A man who Is q grand
father can hardly expect TO be classed as
a young man. 0tthess We noticed several

a healthy grown son expect TO be enumer-
ated as q young man. There was also
fair delegation Of this class In the ranks
We only notice these features in contra:
