CHIPS FROM THE SHAFT. Ineidents and Notes Concerning the Great Monument. THE WORK COMPLETED WITHOUT ANY SERIOUS ACCIDENT—THE FASCINATION OF HIGH PLACES FOR SUICIDES—A CAT THAT LEAP! FROM THE TOP, &c. : A most remarkable circumstance connected With the construction of the monument is that there was no accident Involving loss of Ife, Botwithstanding the perilous heights to which the workmen had to ascend. y one accl- dent happened, and that was near the base of the shaft. A workman slipped and broke his arm. As the shaft was carried upwards, a strong netting extending out several feet from the wall was keptaround the obelisk, and shifted from height to height as the work pro- Eressed, so as to be always on the level of the platform where the workmen were engaged. On several occasions workmen fell into this netting. Once a young lady visitor in a spirit of bravado threw herself into the netting, an experiment which not even the workmen had ever tried for fun. A CAT THAT JUMPED FROM THE TOP. When the shaft had been constructed to a height of 250 feet, one morning when the | workmen ascended the elevator they were sur- prised to find acat at the top. The animal was startled at their approach and jumped upon the wal lof the monument. One of the men went toward it, and the cat, seeing no way of escape, Jumped over the side’ to the ground. Instea bf being smashed to atoms, as the workmen expected, upon teaching the’ ground, although evidently a little stunned, it got up and started to run away, when the watehman’s dog caught sight of it and, seizing the eat by the ne Kilied it. It was afterwards found that the ani- mal had belonged to Mrs. K. E. Brown, of South Washington, who bad missed it for abouts week. CONSTERNATION CAUSED BY SPIDERS. One morning, at about the time when those in charge of the work were most anxious about its success, the plummet, which measured deflec- tions in the monument, was found swung far to one side. Consternation among the work- men followed, and the monument was thought to be doomed. When Col. Casey arrived on the ground he made inquiries about the other line, and learning that itshowed no unusual move- ment he knew that everything was ail right, An examination was at once made to find out the cause of the unaccountable movement of the plummet, and it was found that during the night spiders had built their web from the line to the box-casing, and thus drawn the line out of a perpendicular. At another time the other plummet showed a simi r irregularity, and at he top an owl was found quietly perehing upon. the line. It was captured and kept alive for some time. After its death it was stuffed and presented to Mrs. Hayes, and it now probably adorns the Hayes home at Fremont, Ohio. ‘MR. M'LAUGHLIN'S STRANGE FINDS. A strange thing happened to Superintendent McLaughlin soon after he took charge of the monument, which will confirm the faith of peo- ple who believe in signs. While crossing the frounds his foot loosened a silver three-cent Piece. Nine days afterward he found in the Same way another silver three-cent plece with the Roman numerals “III.” With exactly the same interval of time he found three copper cents of the coinage previous to that in use at the present time. “Being struck by the curious Incident, he took the coins home to his wife and asked her, jokingly, the meaning of the finding Of the nine cents with the interval of nine days between each find. Mrs. McLaughlin immedi- ately replied that the nine cents were either symbolical of the length of his stay on the work or that it would he nine years before the struct- ure was completed. Mr. McLaughlin has en- tered upon his seventh year of his connection With the work, and It is estimated it will be two Years before ft fs ‘inally finished off, both inside @nd outside. These coins Mr. McLaughlin pitced under thealuminium point of the monu- it. CRANKS AND SUICIDES. A crank recently interviewed in a New York paper declared his purpose of distinguishing himself by leaping from the monument and enjoying the exhilaration of a 500 foot fall at the expense of his life if necessary. He pro- Posed to take parachute with him to open Just before reaching the ground. This feat he Wanted to perform on the day ‘the monument was dedicated. Persons entrusted with the care of high places, accessible to the public, all have stories to tellof the fascination which dizzy heights have for suicides. Even persons of well- eed minds feel an almost Irresisti- ble desire.to throw themselves from such laces. If the fascination increases in ropor- jon to the height of these places the Washing- ton monument will be a great attraction for Suicides. To throw themselves from the monu- Ment a person would have to clamber out through the peep holes, which will be open dur- ing the hours when visitors are admitted to the top. These peep holes cannot be barred or grated on the inside, because the marble €losures have to swing downinthem. Itis deemed undesirable to place gratings on the Outside as they would disfigure the face of the monument. waichman who will be em- ployed at the top to keep persons from writing names allover the marble will have to keep up a sharp lookout for cranks, SOUVENIRS. The city has been flooded with souvenirs of the monument. It is estimated that there are cam) bers that the day was a vei = . THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, D.C at night. No expense was spared to makethem rfeet, and they were really beautiful. Every- body in the city was assembled to see the play, which lasted for probably two hours.” WHAT MR. A. S. H. WHITE REMEMBERS. “It was a hot, dusty day,”sald A. 8. H. White, one of the marshals in 1848, speaking to a Sak reporter of the day when the corner stoné of the Washington monument was laid. “Crowds were strung along the Avenue as we marched by; there was not much shade from the 4th of July sun,and the dust from the mac- adamized street was very heavy, but it was a beautiful display—one of the finest I ever saw. We were all merry and fullof life. When we came to the site of the monument there was an immense crowd assembled, and we did not try | to get close up and hear what was going on. r Major Howle had a tent pitched out on the lawn, and we went there and were served with refreshments and had a delightful time. Heaiths were drunk to the occasion, and George Gideon, who was one of the jolliest men OW ever saw, was never in better mood, and ¢ kept us all merry. When the formal cere- mony was over and we left there, we had a ca alry charge. We'll never have those days again. These two ceremonies will be as unlike as two occasions can be. It was an act of en- thusiasm then; it is done as an administrative duty now. Yes, the city has changed. We did't have any gas then, no police and scarce! a watchman, and we all knew each other. knew everybody I met on the streets those days; now I don't know one out of a hundred. Near about Babcock lake there was an island then—the one about which they had so much trouble afterwards. All through the Smith- sonian and about there was wild pasture. Where the Smithsonian building now stands Was the cricket grounds. I belonged to the cricket club that played there, and I used to Shoot plover there too.” * HON. HORATIO KING'S RECOLLECTIONS. Hon. Horatio King, a member of the Monu- ment associz tion and a resident of this city for many years, when asked by o STAR reporter for his recollections of the events connected with the laying of the cornerstone, sa{d: “I really have no distinct recollection of anything very remarkable at the laying of the corner-stone of the monument. The day was fine, and the streets and windows along the line of march were alive with spectators intent on witness. ing the display. In the procession were the President and other high officers of the govern- ment, the Masonic, Odd Fellows and Temper- gnce societies, Fire companies, children of the Sunday Schools, members of the Monument Seclety, and Ja grand military escort, under the command of the gray-haired Veteran, Gen. Quitman, then recently from the Mexican war, covered with laurels and ‘the observed of all observers.” Han iy less noted were his lieu- tenants, Gen. Cadw:iader and Col. May, of the dragoons, whose Mezican fame and superb bear- ing made him an object of special attention. ‘There was a vast crowd at the site of the monu- ment, to hear Mr. Winthrop’s oration, and I do not remember ever to have seen an’ audience more stirred by patriotic feeling, or more com- pletely carried away by the eloquence of a Speaker than on this occasion, The Masonite ceremonies were solemn and impressive, and the Grand Master, Major Benjamin B, French, probably never made a better address than he pronounced as part of these ceremonies. The presence of those venerable ladies, Mrs. Madi- son and the widow of Alexander Hamilton, added not a little to the interest of the celebra- tion. There were fireworks in the evening when President Polk held a brilliant reception at the White House.”” CAPTAIN BACON, OF THE “BLUES.” Gen. P. F. Bacon is now the only one living, as faras known, who had command of a mili- tary organization that marched in the proces- sion at the time of the laying of the corner-stone. He was then captain of the National Blues, afterwards the Grays. He recalls the fact that the few companies in the District—the Wash- ington Light Infantry, Capt. Joseph B. Tate; the Independent Grays, of etown; and his own command—all turned out with full ranks: that they had their hands full in receiving the ‘siting companies; that a number of them en- ped in judiciary square one in Parrott’s o1 near the head of 20th street; and one, the cadets, in Patent Office square. ‘The mili- tary display, he says, was a very fine one; per- | haps the best seen here up to that time. THE SURVIVING MARSHALS. There were over seventy aids and assistant marshals under Mr. Bradley when the corner- stone was laid, and of this number the following are now living: Benj. E. Green, J. H. McBlair, Lem. Towers, A. 8. H. White, Frank Burch, A. H. Clements, W. W. Davis, Dr. J. E. Morgan, R. Simms, J, H. Semmes, James Scott, Reuben B. Clarke, Fenwick Young, J. W. Martin, T. W. Riley, Wm.

Keese was the marshal of the Ger- man division, having charge of the German societies, among them the German Benevolent association, of this city. He states that, consid- ering the number of Germans in the city, they showed their patriotism by turning out well, and there were perhaps 300 in line. He has yet his badge, saddle cloth, gloves, &c., and used them to-day as marshal. $20 tothe monument, but upon the advice of society donated ir. W. W.

The right wing of the company is designated as infantry, and was composed of members who are, or have been, connected with other mili- tary organizations, and have, therefore, the right to wear their respective uniforms on pa- rade. For this reason the uniforms of this wing were variegated, anda mu al with his chapeau and yellow plume, walking by the side of a red coated lancer, with other striking con- trasts, presented a rather peculiar spectacle. The contrasts observed in thisregard were strik= ing. The left wing of the p mated as artillery, wore a distioctive untform, consi ing of a dark blue clo with two" rows of gilt buttons in front, red piping cord around the collar, and one around the sle A mounted cannon 1s embroidered in gold and silver upon the front ofthe collar, | ‘The pants correspond with the coat, and have red piping down the Pearl, §.

A SKETCH OF THE ORGANIZATION, The First Company Governor's Foot Guard, of Hartford, was organized by the general as- sembly of the colony of Connecticut in 1771 for the purpose of attending the governor and the general assembly upon oceasions of state. Dur ing the revolutionary war, the guard acted as an escort guard of honor for Gens, Washington, Knox, and Lafayette, Admiral Ternay, Gen. Roehambeau, and their aids, upon the oseasion, rte Lafayette when he visited this country in 1824. When Gen.Jackson visited the city the guard led the pageant in his honor, They took part in the Bunker Hill Centennial celebration in 187 the centennial celebration of the surrender of Burgoyne at Saratoga, 1877; the centennial of the capture of Major Andre at Tarrytown, 1880; the New York evacuation day centennial, 1886, and the bicentennial of Worcester in S84. . The Philadelphia Troop. ‘The First Troop, Philadelphia City cavalry, with their fine horses and striking uniforms, attracted marked attention in the procession. The members of the troop are prominent Phila- aelphia gentlemen. The officers are: Gen. Ed- ward Burd Grubb, captain; Joseph Lapsley Wilson, first Heutenant: J. Edward Carpenter, second Hentenant: Charles E. Kelly, William White, surgeo geant; J.B, Porter, John Hoffman, RC, Dra . sergeants: Jas. Rawla, A. II. feCullough, W . Clyde, 'C. T. Cresswell, H. W.. _R. White, R. Tobin, privates; Ellis nd G. L. Fisher, trumpeters. The uniform consists of a horseman’s cap with long plume, a dark blue jacket, white breeches, black topped pots and the usual ac- coutrements, A CENTURY OF PATRIOTISM. The history of the First Troop Philadelphia avairy isan eventfalone. Organized in 1774, when the first measures were being eon- siderey ting the tyranny of Great Brit- , there were among the twenty-eight orig nal members three members of the eommi of correspondence who were appointed to ob- tain united action from the colonies. The re- cords show that from the bezinning the men who composed the troop believed in and labored for detense alone, but for the independence colonies, ‘They acted as an escort toGen, Washington as he passed through Philadelphi June 23d, 1775, on his way to take comman ofthearmy at Cambridge, Mass. In the early years they were employed by Congress in con- tches and money tothe army at When Washington, driven from ork and Long Iskind, re- treated to the banks of the Delaware the troop was In his personal service and in the advance with the commander-in-chief, They the night preceding pture of the enemy at ‘Tren- the sun ton, ‘They were at the second action at Tren- ton and shared In the victory at Princeton.

They were called outin 1794 to aidin suppressing the whisky insurrection in the western part ot In 1814 the troop again took the sainst England. The history of the field troop (irom | this time up to the brea king out of the ripation in the don the v ents to Phil: 1 war, is marked by the icdemonstrations, which sits of the successive Presi- vhia, and in aiding the sup- distutbances.

Finally, when their leader was shot down and further advance was madness, the signal for retreat was sounded, and the gallant band fell back with ranks badiy thinned. The company soon after returned home, but when, in 1780, Charleston fell into the hands of the British, the Fusiliers were compelled todisband and surrender their arms, All the muskets were surrendered with the ex- ception of one belonging to Mr. John Horlbeck, & private, who hid it. This patriotic musket has been’ preserved in the family and was brought to this city, After the evacuation of the city by the British the Fusiliers reowgan- ized. Their services were volunteered when the war of 1812 broke out, but were not needed. In the Siminole war, in 1936, a company from the Fusiliers performed valuable service in the Everglades. In 1861, when the first call for troops was ‘made by 'the confederate govern- ment, most of the younger members of the Fu- sillers joined the German corps that was formed, and its record upon the fields of Vir- ginia is an honorable and gallant one. “Only hree of those who left Charleston survived. In 1873 a reorganization of the company was effected, officers were elected, and the present uniform adopted. It is rather singular that during Its existence of over a century it has had but three treasurers, the present tre: surer, Mr. B.Bollinan, having served since 1852. , The Lawrence Light Guard. ‘The Lawrence Light Guard, company E, fifth regiment Mossachusetts volunteer militia, of Medford, Mass., represented the militia of Mas- sachusetts in the line.

The Lawrence Light Guard was organized February 12, 1851, and answered the first. call for three months’ troops, and, with the fifth Massachusetts regiment, was quartered in the Treasury building in this city. The guard was in the first Bull Run fight, where their colonel, S.C.Lawrence,after whom the guard wasnamed, was wounded, and their color sergeant was Killed. The guard returned to Medford at the sirgtion of this term of service and immedi- re-enlist with the same officers and men for three years, and wi signed ys com- pany “C,"39U1 ) tts volunteers, under Col.
