SEEING WASHINGTON
VISITORS FROM ALL SECTIONS OF
THE COUNTRY THRoNG THE CITY.

Washington is thronged with visitors
from all sections of the country-NeW Eng
land, Pennsylvania and New York espe-
cially being we'll represented. For several
years Washington has been a favorite re-
sort in the spring, and the tide OF travel
this season is said to be larger than usual
1t is quite the fashion, since the hotel Ia
cilities of the city have been increased, for
the capital to be a halfway stop between
the north and Florida and California.
There is always something interesting
for the people in Washington, and the
sightseers have been thronging the public
buildings and other points of interest about
the town. The seeing Washington out
fits have been doing land office business
and even the humble "night-liners'' have
had their share of traffic. The visitors
are not composed altogether of the rich,
however, as the smaller hotels have been
crowded with excursion.sts brought on the
personally conducted tours of the rail-
roads.
A notable feature of the attitude of
these visitors. and which mpresses all who
come in contact with them, is that they
sem to feel an interest in the capital
amounting to sense of partnership of
ownership. 'Jt's. cur town." is a remark
often heard and one that, of course, is
perfectly justifiab.e.
81 am glad to hear you talk that way"
said a citizen to a group of visitors in
car whose queries he had answered .sThe
country ought to feel that the national
capital is its own city, the city of all the
people. II you will just put that idea a

REGARDED AS NOVEL SUIT.
Postal Clerk to Take Demand for Dam
ages to Higher Court.

In the case of w. Med. Lindsey against
the Philadelphia, Baltimore and Washing
ton railroad and the Pennsylvania railroad
in which Justice Barnard directed Jury in
Circuit Court No. 1 to render a verdict in
favor of the defendants, what is said to
have been novel suit for damages on
account of personal injuries was termi-
mated. The plaintiff, it is explained. was
not permitted to complete the introduction
of his testimony, the court holding that he
had no such standing in law as would en-
title him to maintain the action.
The plaintiff. a postal clerk running be-
tween here and New York, claimed that he
contracted pneumonia on an unheated pos
tai car by reason of the negligence of the
defendants in failing to provide the car
with heat, as required by law. Justice
Barnard ruled, ii is said, that, granting
monia a postal car by reason of the
negligence of the railroad over which the
postal car is being run, he has no right to
institute and maintain a suit against the
offending railroad for damages, he being
an employee of the government, and the
government having contract with the road
for transporting the mail, and the postal
clerk merely accompanying the mail under
and by virtue of such contract
The plaintiff, it is stated, will take the
case to a higher court. believing that no
case exactly like his has ever been reported
in the law books.
Attorney Burton T. Doyle represented the
plaintiff

TO CONSIDER NEW PARKS
KEEGAN'S LAKE AND PROSPECT
PARK PROJECTS TO BE DIS
GUESSED WEDNESDAY.

Two new park propositions will be
considered by the park board COMMITTEES
on designation Of grounds at meeting
to be held next Wednesday afternoons
First in Importance is the petition of.
residents of the western part ef4the city,
for THE acquisition of Keegan IS lake
and all the surrounding land for park
purposes. This tract, in conjunction
with Glenwood park which lies directly
across Western avenue, will form one of
the finest parks in the entire system
with its lakes, wood and meadow. In
the hands of such man as Theodore
Wlrth, the new superintendent of parks,
1T could be made into rural park rival
ing the most famous in the country.
The first direct effect of the acquisi-
ton Of this tract by the park commits.
sion will be to abolish two notorious sa-
looms just beyond the city limits on
Western avenue and Sixth avenue NJ
which, since the Sunday closing law has
been enforced, have become more OBJ
jectionable than before.
The other park suggestion under con-
sideration is the plan to make a small
park in Prospect park including the
high knoll which was formerly sur
mounted by high tower from which
a birds-eye view of the city was OBJ
tanned. -'.- =
All persons interested Ii either of
these matters are invited to attend the
meeting of the committee next Wednesl
day afternoon and give their views.

WILL SEND HOST
TO ENCAMPMENT
ALLIED ORDERS WILL BE IN EVIL
DENCE NEXT AUGUST.
Woman's Relief Corps, Ladies Of the
g. A. r., Loyal Legion, Naval Veter-
ans, Sons and Daughters Of Veterans,
ex-Prisoners Of War, Army Nurses,
and Other Organizations Coming.

Few Minneapolitans, even those most
interested in the coming G.. A. R. en-
campment, realize the number of allied
organizations that will also be present
IN the city next August and hold SEES
slons of their own. Most Of them hold
their individual national conventions
and encampments,r but they are also
represented at the G. A. R. encamp-
ments on account of their affiliations
with the main organizations.
There are about fifteen Of these al
lied organizations that can be divided
into two classes, those composed of vet
Grams and those, like the Woman Re
lief Corps, that are composed of women
and are auxiliary to the veteran organ
izations. The Woman's Relief corps is
regularly recognized by the Grand
Army and is the organization most
closely affiliated with it. It is COM
posed Of loyal women who are interest
ed in G. A. R. relief work. The mem
bership is not confined to relatives of
veterans or to any class of people. All
women who are interested in veteran
relief work are eligible.
The Ladies of the G. A. R. confines
its membership to relatives Of veterans,
filiated body with the 6. A. R.
The National Association Of Naval
Veterans is composed Of sailors who
were in the federal navy during the
war. They are also eligible to member
ship in the G. A. R., and many belong
to both organizations.
The Loyal Legion is composed Of hon
orably discharged commissioned officers
of the civil war and sons Of officers.
Of Veterans are independent organiZa-
tions with membership limited as the
name implies, to the sons and daughters
of veterans. These are among the
largest allied veteran organizations.
The National Association of Union
Exprisoners Of War is composed Of
veterans who were confined in rebel
prisons during the war or who were
taken in battle and held in the rebel
prison camps.
The National Association of Army
Nurses of the Civil War is another
women g auxiliary that is given con
siderable recognition by the G. A. R.
It's membership is made up Of brave
women who followed the army of the
north as nurses in the field and head
quarter hospitals. The members gener
ally attend the encampments and are
usually assigned position in the q. A
R. parade, a privilege not generally al
lowed others than veterans. o.
Among the other organizations are
the Loyal Home Workers, the Ladies
Auxiliary of the National Association
of Naval Veterans, the Woman s Ma
tional association, Auxiliary, to the
Union Exprisoners Of War, the Suryi
vors Of the Battle Of Shiloh and the
National Association Of Civil War Mu
Special invitations will be extended
to all Of these allied organizations tf(
attend the Minneapolis ,encalnpment
next August. They will be urged tt
participants to the extent OF oP p,
asked, to urge their members to- atteno
the Minneap0lis eneampm ent, which, II
is conced ed, will sbe .the largest OF the
final national encampments.
