DRAPED IN MOURNING.
Washington sPrepares to Receive the
1.E9@ aTt 10 Dead President. .z"-s

Washington sRrepares to, Receive the
a.55~ 4ft 10 Dead President. 'v~s-'
The capital City has put on her garb Of
mourning. All day the work Of draping
the architecture Of the city in the somber
black Of grief has been in progress. The
avenue through which the funeral cortege
will wend- its mouruful way from the
White House to the Capitol will present a
continuous veil of mourning. These trib-
utes of respect and affection to President
Mckinley have been placed in the fore
ground silently and with reverence. His
picture as been framed in black and placed
in view; the flag which was displayed in
decoration last on the joyful occasion Of
his Inauguration now bears the black bor-
der of sorrow.
Throughout the city the flag is flying at
half-mast. Under the law this is the only
sign Of mourning that can be allowed on
government buildings. Regret has been
expressed at this enactment Of Congress
by many today, and the Treasury Depart
ment has been besieged by custodians Of
public buildings throughout the country
for permission to drape their structures in
mourning. but negative answer is the only
one that can be made
Simplicity Is the marked feature of the
displays that have been made by Wash
ington business men. The flag has been
used very little except in its position at
half-mast. The hotels have framed their
entrances in black. At the Ebbitt House.
where the President lived during his long
congressional career. the pillars at the en-
trance directly under his window are
wound In black with simple festoons Of
black bunting over the entrance.
In the residence section of the city the
people have been quick to make expression
Of their sorrow. Flags have been thrown
to the breeze at half-mast and the picture
OF the President draped and hung in win
dows.
Black ties and crepe-draped carnations
the Presidents favorite flower-are worn
in token of mourning by both men and
women, and the etsomber expressions in dec
Grafton are reflected in the sorrowful
countenances of all.
