fifty YEARS AGO TO-DAY
May 5, 1861-Washngton w as an Armed Camp Witt
Regiments Even in the CapitoI-HoW the Soldiers Lived

Fifty years ago today the city of
washington was like an armed camp,
with soldiers everywhere, quartered In
the public buildings. encamped in the
suburbs, drilling, marching. parading,
being mustered into service.
Since April rs, when the Seventh New
York had arrived from Annapolis to re-
lieve the beleaguered capital, the stream
of soldiers pouring into the city had not
stopped or slackened, and each day
brought its new regiment or regiments.
Massachusetts, had sent her Eighth
and Fifth regiments, in addition to the
Sixth. which on May left the capital
to join General Butler and the Fourth
at Annapolis.
New York had followed the Seventh
with the 18th, the list, the 18th or Al
bany regiment, and the 69th, Colonel
Corcorans famous regiment, which bore
the green flag Of Ireland in addition to
the Stars and Stripes, And on May 2
had come Colonel Ellsworth and his
Fire Zouaves." composed of men taken
largely from the New York fire depart
ment and clad in the zouave uniform
which the Crimean war had made so
popular north and south.
In addition to the New York and Mas
sachusetts troops there were the Fifth
Pennsylvania some other Pennsylvania
and Ohio companies and the First
Rhode Island, accompanied by Governor
Sprague, which from every side was
praised for its neat appearance, its COM
plete equipment and readiness for action,
and for the four vivandieres who attend
ca it's second detachment. From Rhode
Island, too, came the Marine artillery,
as perfect in every appointment as the
infantry.
There were also in washington about
4 200 regulars and some 1900 district vol
unteers, so there were altogether in the
city 50 years ago today upward of 10000
troops. U

RAISING THE FLAG.

RAISING THE FLAG.
So in sleeping, eating, drilling, parad-
ing, writing and larking passed the days
of early May, one very much like am
other. Each regiment in turn was mus
tered in, the men taking the oath that
bound them to bear allegiance to the
United States of America; serve them
honestly and faithfully against all enc
mics or opposers whatsoever; obey the
orders of the president or the United
States and of the officers appointed over
me according to the rules Of the armies
of the United States"
Most notable, perhaps, OF the events of
the period was the raising of a large
silk flag, contributed by the clerks Of
the Interior department, over the patent
Office by President Lincoln May 2.
In front of the building was drawn
up the First Rhode Island regiment,
which was quartered there, while on the
roof of the portico facing the 'front.'
were the Metropolitan rifles. The street
and all adjacent open spaces were filled
with a dense crowd of people, residents
of the city and others.
At the appointed time Lincoln APP
peared on the roof and hoisted the flag
to the top of the 50-foot pole. At first
the flag hung Imply, but presently the
wind caught 1t and blew 1t out, while
the crowd on the street, quick to see
a happy omen, cheered and cheered
again.
AS more and more regiments arrived
the f1rst-comers were moved out OF the
city to the suburbs The Seventh New
York established Camp Cameron on the
grounds of villa some two miles north
of the city, leaving to Ellsworth's zou-
ayes their old quarters in the capitol;
the Rhode Islanders likewise went into
camp on the outskirts. The 69th New
York found comfortable home at
Georgetown college.
Fifty years ago today the capital was
camp, but as yet onIy camp OF
peace.

Dear sir:-An inspection has been

Order 222. owing to the badly

walls, unsanitary condition Of the
building and the south wall has beer
spread and cracked from the settle

ing is very old and the cracked con.
dition of the walls indicate that the
Il foundation has not been properly

to the kind of material used In con-

that said materials are fast deterior.

Mayor Setter and Chief Mcfarland
refuse to make any statement re-
gardlng the matter. They say 1t Is up

Mr.. Smart states that II will be left
for the council to decide whether or
not the building will be vacated.
There are plenty of laws governing
conditions of this sort but their exc
cution seems to be weak. The fol-
lowing Is an extract from the General
Code of Ohio, under public buildings
of cities and villages, section 1853;
Proceedings IL building does not COM
ply with the law:
II such officers or inspectors find
upon examination or inspection that
that such a building is not properly
arranged as provided by law, they
shall notify the owner, lessee, officer
having control, of sush building of
such fact with the aid of of the police,
or the prosecuting attorney, with the
aid of the sheriff, shall prohibit the
use Of such building for the assem-
blage of people until the necessary
changes have been made.
Smart says 1t is impossible for the
city to build a city building at the
present because Of the bnded indebt-
edness. Also the water works pro-
position is at hand and must be dis
posed of first.
The council will decide at the next
