District Soldiers in Cuba.

Before large assemblage last evening
at the Westminster Presbyterian Church,
Gen. Geo. II. Harries, commanding the
militia of the District Of Columbia, deliv-
cred an interesting address, detailing the

perlences at Camp Alger, at Chickamauga
of its stay Of a month at Tampa and of
the trip from Fort Tampa to Siboney, the
men being packed on a small transport so
that they resembled sardines in box It
was pointed out as commendable act that

put ashore at Siboney In q remarkably
short time. Although the last company to
land did not reach the place of bivouc. four
miles inland. until 2:30 o'clock In the morn
ing. the entire command was in place on
the firing line outside Of Santiago at $40
o'clock.
The arduous work digging trenches was
explained. Upon the day Of the surrender
OF the Spanish forces the trenches dug by
the District regiment were found to have
been extended nearer the lines of the enemy
than those OF any other command. For this
the regiment was highly complimented by
Gen. LawtOn.
When the news that the Spanish had sur
rendered spread about the District men
were greatly disappointed, according to
Gen. Harries. They had been anxious to
storm the city. The .ipsMents connected
with the surrender. the afheefIng of the
troops and the playing ,uf The military
bands were described. Before closing Gen.
Harries paid a tribute to the .cdtnfed troops

eelved attention from the speaker. Gen.
