Long Lines of People Waiting to As
cend the Shaft.
Despite the incleInent weather of the
early morning, the Washington monument
was one of the principal centcrs Uf attrac-
ton. and from an early hour the crowds
could be seen going in the direction OF this
historic structure. At the monument there
has been a large throng al day. Every
approach is filled with people. anxious to
get nearer and. II possible, ascend ON the
big elevator to the top to get a ird's-eye
view Of the city. together with the novel
experience. Many of them were doomed
to disappointment. Owing to work being
done taking down the scaffolding that had
been put in position on the top floor to
hold the flag poles on which "Old Glory.
was swung TO the breeze from the tallest
edihce in the country. 1t was impossible to
let the crowd up until after II o'clock At
that hour there was a line Of people two
deep around the monument, awaiting their
turn in the elevator This line extended
all around the monument before noon, and
the crowds kept coming. At the closest
calculation the end man at noon could not
possibly reach the top before o'clock, as
the elevator can only make so many trips
a day.
Many people simply walked to the edge
the base for a closer view. content to take
it in from the outside. instead Of waiting
for their turn In the elevator
The crowd was made up of all sor.s and
conditions of men, white. black, green,
grizzled and gray. and. like all the other
knots of people gathered about the city,
was in perfect good humor with itself and
| the world. No difficulty was had In keep

to see that 1t was not desectated, hut no
