Decorations Complete.
Decorations inside and outside the
huge building were practically all in
place this morning, the big rooms being
literally massed about the walls and
overhead with flags. bunting, wreaths
and festoons of the Stars and Stripes
and red, white and blue bunting.
Hospital and Rest Rooms.
The room at the southeast corner of
the building has been fitted up as an
emergency hospital, where visitors who
may require medical treatment or first
aid surgical attention are to be cared
for. Adjoining the temporary hospital
on either side are rest rooms, one for
men and one for women. The hospital
is to be in charge of doctors and nurses
to be supplied from Washington hospi-
tails. while the two rest rooms will be
in charge of capable attendants.
A novel feature of the registration
bureau is the tags which are given to
all visiting veterans. These tags.
which are the idea of Dr. N A.
Straight, one of the registration COM
mittee members. are small bits of white
cardboard. on which are plainly writ
ten the number of the army corps and
the name of the department and post
of which the wearer is a member.
On the reverse side of the tag is the
name, local address. telephone number
and home address of the person wear
ing the tag. The tags are on strong
cords, by means of which they are at
tached to the buttonhole of the wearer
BY means of these tags it is expected
that should any visiting veteran be-
come bewildered or lost. or be injured
or killed in any accident, Identification
will be an extremely simple matter.
Another convenient feature of the
camp is the temporary post office, To-
Gated on the east and west corridor
directly opposite the street entrance.
Here veterans and others attending the
encampment may have their mail ad-
dressed and receive it without the in
convenience and delay that might be
occasioned by the delivery of mail to
homes or other places where the
visitors might be STOPPING.

j. w. Langford of Montpelier. VT,
who was one of the column of troops
that arrived at Fort Stevens the morn
ing Of July IL in time to check Early
from capturing that fortification, and
who was particularly noticed and
warmly greeted by President Lincoln,
thus describes the defense of Wash
ington:
Quick Finish to Battery.
1--WE had been in the fort but few
minutes when a rebel battery galloped
to a position close to one of the targets
used by the 100-day men. They never
fired shot. We opened on them at
short range, and the way that battery
was demoralized was worth seeing.
Two of their guns were dismounted
and the balance of the battery got out
of there on short notice. Ny company
"a, 1st wisconsin, left Alexandria, Va,
after dark July II. We marched all
night and arrived at Fort Stevens the
of July 12 in time to take the
place of the 100-day men. who were oc-
ers we captured said they supposed the
works were occupied by the 1O0-day
men, and that they would have picnic
taking the fort.
When this battery was SO quickly
and beautifully demolished they knew
that it was not 100-day men they had
to deal with. President Lincoln and a
part of his cabinet were there. Among
them was Montgomery Blair. the Post
master General of the United States,
and others. President Lincoln came up
to me and said:
"'You remind me of great friend of
mine. What is your name? ] told
him my name was J. W. Langford and
my fathers name was John w. Lang
ford. He said:
"'Well! Well, Is it possible you are
a son of my old friend John W. Lang
ford? 1 want to shake hands with you,
for you know your father and 1 were
great chums.' / was there until Early
made his getaway"
