Although some time must elapse before
Admiral Dewey reaches Washington, the
general committee on his reception is
doing some good work in perfecting all the
necessary arrangements TO make the re-
ception great success. New funds new
workers, and new enthusiasm are being
brought to bear each day, and everybody
seems confident that the welcome will be
a superb celebration.
Voluntary subscriptions are coming in
rapidly, and ii is announced that the
amount needed will be obtained with ease,
even though the scope of the demonstra-
tion has been enlarged and more money
will be required than was expected at
the beginning. A check for $3.50 was sent
in yesterday by the Raleigh Hotel, and the
fund is steadily growing.
