to Gettysburg.
STATE MAY APPROPRIATE
War Department Had Made Plans to
Care for Only 40, 900 Of the
Old Soldiers.
STATE MAY APPROPRIATE

When the semi-centennial of the battle
OF Gettysburg is opened at the battle
field next Sunday many veterans Of the
civil war will be disappointed unless ar
rangements are made FOR the accom-
mediation of thousands of the old SOL
diers whose applications for the trip
have not been accepted.
1t was expected that 1000 soldiers
would attend. Several thousand more
than this number have expressed their
desire to visit once more the field on
which they fought fifty years ago.
Col. Thomas s. Hopkins. who has
charge of arrangements for District vet
Grams, has received more than $50 ap-
plications. Unless facilities are in
creased only 405 can make the trip.

hoy scouts on Field.
When the celebration Is opened. twenty
four Boy Scouts, Of this city, will be
on the field to assist in Red Cross work.
The boys who are to make the trip will
be selected by Scout commissioners.
Rigid tests OF efficiency will be taken
by boys who apply for places.
The Vice. President yesterday was
named by the Senate to head a delega-
ton of Senators. Mr.. Marshall named

ator Francis G. Newlands of Nevada.
Senator Knute Nelson of Minnesota. SEN
ator Henry A. Du Point of Delaware.
Senator William o. Bradley of Kentucky,
Senator John D. Works of California,
and Senator John r. Thornton of
Louisiana.
Gettysburg field will be made into a
mammoth camping ground for the cele-
bration. Tents will dot the field where
fifty years ago the men who will occupy
them were marching to kali each other
in what proved to be the decisive battle
of the war.
The old soldiers will know once more
the camp life to which they were once
Injured. They will be fed rations in place
of the meals they get at home. Camp
fires will be built, and the field will be
made to resemble the headquarters Of a
mammoth army.
War Department officials have arranged
for field hospitals, as the return TO camp
life is expected to exhaust some of the
veterans. A fire department will be or
ganized, so that tents cannot become
ignited from burning wood that has
strayed from fires
An American flag 20 feet long and
10. feet wide will be a feature of the
fireworks display July ) The flag will
be shown from the summit OF Little
Round Top. Half way down the hill

ures OF a Confederate and Union soldier
shaking hands. More than ten carloads
