Although but recently organized this branch of the order has grown with rapidity, and now numbers between 20,000 and 30,000 members, At the time of this action of the grand lodge there were in this city and in other portions of the country uniformed bodies of Odd Fellows, known as uniformed patriarchs and degree camps. These bodies « once disbanded and were organized into can- tons of Patriarchs Militant.

The uniform is a single-breasted frock coat of black broadcloth with a standing collar and shoulder knots.

The pants are plain black for the rivates, those worn by the officers eing distinguished by a gold _ stripe down the outer seams, The chapeau is a stiff black silk plush, trimmed on the right and left sides with rosettes, The general officers and officers of the general staff wear a plume of white and purple ostrich feathers on the chapeau.

Much has been said about the veteran organi ization known as ise Union Veterar Corps, which was organized in 1880 as an armed guard to the “G. A. R.” of this city. In course of time it was “mustered into” the na- tional guard of the District under the name of the Union Veteran Corps, and for the last few years it has averaged amembership of about sixty, all veterans of the war, and in very few exceptions member. vf the G. ALR. Sceing the necessity of infusing young blood into the organization, as the old ‘war horses” were ey placed “hors du combat” by time and the “effects of the war,” it was decided to take in sons of veterans and those who have served in the army since the war. To that end the by-laws were altered. The enlistments became so num- erous and the growth of the corps so rapid that proper discipline necessitated the forming of a battalion, which was done, and it was as- signed to the first regiment, national guard, as the third battalion. Capt. T. B, Harrison was unanimously elected the major in recognition of his worth as an organizer and commander, The design of the badge adopted by the Union Veteran Corps, a eut of which accompanies this article, is as follows: A diamond or lozenge, in the upper and right and left points of which are the letters U. V.C. (Union Veteran Corps), in the center two crossed ritles separat- ing the letters N. D. C. (national guard District of Columbia), surmounted by an eagle with wings extended, suspended to a ribbon of three colors, blue, yellow and red, denoting the the three arms of the service—infantry, cavalry and artillery. The battalion is steadily increas- ing in membership. It now numbers 180, and at this rate the four companies will soon have increased to 100 men e: The battalion ex- pects to take 100 men to New York city April 30, Eisai tala At Tifin, Ohio, the ten-year-old daughter of Levi MeGavern, while burning brush in a gar- den yesterday afternoon, was burned to death.
