of the reunion of thousands of veterans
who parted i'll that city in 1865, after the
grand review following the surrender at
AppomatOx and the capitulatOn of Rich

thousands OF veterans will march down
Pennsylvania avenue to be revie wed again
by the President of the United States,
members of his cabinet, and other distin-

via the Baltimore and Ohio railroad will
be sold By all the roads in the west at ex-

the trip to Washington will be the journey
via the Picturesque Baltimore and Ohio,
which crosses the Allegheny mountains

fraught with the most thrilling incidents

who is as fond of flags, firecrackers
and allathe noise and din of the Fourth
of July as his young master. He was a
very proud dog when he was decorated
with flags and rosettes of red, white
and blue. He was harnessed to the lit

driver. Harry with his GIGm was
escort, and he marched up sntt down
the pavement on the glorious Fourth.
In the evening he was one of the fea-
lures of the procession. as he walked In
line and carried his torch like little

His great delight is to fire off crack

where he could not find them. At last
he determined to put large bunch
under an old tin pan, and have grand
