One Day of Rest.
Owing to the fact that the regulations of
the United States army forbid military
duty Sunday, except for the most urgent
and necessary reasons, there was no dress
parade yesterday afternoon. All drills were
also suspended. A number of the BOYS
however, practiced bridge building On their
own nook All armed with axes. they went
into the adjoining wood, where they felled a
number OF trees and built a structure that
would be a credit to men of more expert
ence.
There was a very pretty and interesting
informal ceremony at the headquarters of
Major Urell during the afternoon. Mrs.
hlng, wife of Captain King, arrived in
camp with a handsome stand of garrison
colors. The colors were presented to Cap
tain Kings company. To celebrate and

thunder storm about noon kept many from
coming out from Washington. There was
a goodly number however. They came in
vehicles of all kinds and a number rode
wheels.
Enjoy yourselves was the order of the
day fer the boys yesterday. This they did
with will after the sun came out in the
afternoon. The pretty, rosy-cheeked coun-
try lassies soon became acquainted with
soldier boys and allowed themselves to be
escorted through the camp and shown all
the title details of camp life. 1t was ANUS

CAMP HARRIES, Va, May 16. 1898.
Camp Harres has been the scene of great
activity today. Drilling commenced at an
early hour this morning and was kept up
at intervals all day. When the men were
not drilling with their companies the re-
cruits were being drilled in squads by
sergeant. Some of them never handled a
gun before. but they are catching on rap
idly. They are taught the foot movements
first, and then the manual of arms.
To look at the detachment now in camp
one would imagine they had been here sew
eral months, instead of several days. AS
whole they make excellent showing.
When the other companies arrive this af
ternoon they will find they are far behind
in many respects.
There have been but few visitors at the
camp today. The guard has instructions

down on the early Southern train to enlist
in Capt. Young's company, and Capt Do
mer was simply overwhelmed with appl-
cantS anxious to serve under him with the
National Fercibles. Several men who had
served with Capt. Domer previously, and
whom he badly wanted because of their
proven ability, had not come up to the pre-
else requirements, but order from the
War Department relieved the applicants of
these technical demands, and they were ac-
ceDted.
Sure to See Cuban Service.
There was a deep-seated conviction
among all the officers that the gallant 1st
was destined to see the most active sort of
service before many days. 1t was learned
on very good authority that several days
ago the District soldiery assured that
it would have it's coveted chance to distin-
suish itself, and the order of Colonel Har
I1eS command to Chickamauga Is taken to
be merely preliminary to sending 1t to the
front with the army of invasion. Certainly
no organization in the volunteer service is
more anxious and willing to get into
ruction with the donS and hidafgoeS than
the officers and privates who comprise the
regiment, and it's distinctively national
character will doubtless cause it to be re-
Earded with exceptional favor by the au-
thorities, when the army to settle affairs in
Cuba is finally selectsd.
VIII March Through Washington.
In the matter of equipment the 1st Regi-
ment is in better condition than any other
volunteer regiment in the United States.
Everything soldier ought to have will be
In the possession of each man. 1t is be-
lieved that the, regiment will leave for
Chickamauga Wednesday night.
Senator Carter of Montana. who was at
Camp at Woodawn Manor yesterday. takes
a deep personal interest in the District reg
lment, and this morning he saw Adjutant
General Corbin and Quartermaster Gener-
al Ludington. Senator Carter suggested
that the regiment should march through
the city and be reviewed by President Nc
klnley, Secretary Aiger, the military COM
mttees Of the House and Senate and the
district Commissioners when 1t departed
Tor the war. This was agreed to- and con-
sequently Washington will have an oppor-
tunity to see its brave boys in martial ar
ray ere they take the cars for Chickamau-
ga.
Ranks Filling Rapidly.
Colonel Forwood arrived at the drill hall
few minutes after the noon hour and the
work of physically examining the recruits
at once commenced. A better class of men
presented themselves for scrutiny and in
few minutes Captain Youngs Company
had its quota complete. 1t took but lit
tie more time to pass the men necessary to
fill the ranks of Company I, Captain Doug
las Sinlms. The naked men still came hop
ping across the hail. and before l o'clock
