Brightest of the bright styles of Juvenile Clothing are here in most THE NATIONAL GUARD (Continued from First Page.) expected on the steamer River Queen, which leaves Washington at 4:30 o'clock and reaches Fort Washington in ample time for the concluding ceremonies of the day. A large bell has been erected at the edge of the camp, near the main guard tent, and it will be sounded for the benefit of visitors fifteen minutes before the de- parture from camp of the excursion boats. Under this arrangement there will be no excuse for any person being left at camp, as heppened on one occasion during the last outing of the guard. ‘Will Build a Bridge. Major Gilbert Thompson, commanding the engincer battalion, this afternoon de- cided to construct a bridge across a deep ravine separating the camp of the 2d Regi- ment from that of the ist Separate Bat- talion. The work will be done by Company B, the construction company of Major Thompson’s command, and is to be com- menced the early part of next week. The signal tower erected by the engineers at the last camp is still in position and as serviceable as on the day it was completed. | The efficiency displayed yesterday and today by the District National Guard has really been a surprise even to those who expected a good showing. Of course, as might naturally be expected, some slight crudeness has been manifested, but on the whole all the work has been quite as well performed as could reasonably be desired. The camp was raised in a manner and with such speed as reminded one of the regular army, and the mounting of the provost guard was accomplished as though every one participating knew his business. The crowning feature of the day, though, was Gress parade. The regiments and separate organizations formed on their respective parade grounds at 6 o'clock and proceeded to the spacious brigade parade field, where the ceremony was held. Adjutant General Mosher formed the parade, the 2d Separate Battalion reporting on the line first. Other organizations took their positions prompt- ly, and the ambulance corps, with its new ambulance, participated. The National Gvard Band and the corps of field music looked after its share of the ceremony in a creditable manner, when it is taken into consideration that the band has been in existence but a few weeks. Passing in Review. After the officers had marched to the front and center, and the parade had been dismissed, the beautiful and patriotic cere- mony of passing in review before the colors occurred. The regiment and battalion col- ors, with the color guards, were aligned in front of the center of the brigade, and the troops marched past, saluting in turn, the band playing “The Star Spangled Banner.” The colors next passed before the first and second regiments, the commianding officers directing that the proper homage be paid. The colors were then returned to their re- spective battalions as the troops presented arms. Ranks were broken, and but a short time ‘elapsed before the sounding of mess eail for supper. to the conclusion inside- of twenty-four hours that his first opinion was erroneously founded. There was & consultation of regi- mental and separate battalion commanders, including also Capts. Chase and Heyl, to- gether with one or two gnembers of the general's iets at Gen. “Ordway’s beat; quarters it night, when the program for the entire encampniént Was outlined by the general. This morning the program commenced to be more than one of mere instruction The plan is.to take up the work where it was left off at the last en- campment, which means shat the morning drills for the first two or three days will be battalion drills, each: regiment being consolidated into a battalion of four com- panies. The afternoon drills will be for companies, and the companies will not be skeletons. If neceszary, the entire repre- sentation of the battglion,in camp will be consolidated to repregent one full-strength company. - Of course, there will be alternation of commands, both in the battalions and companies, so that every officer will be given an opportunity to acquire experience unéer conditions such as are not common except in a camp like this. When the bat- talion drills stage is passed there will be regimental drills, and it may be that the 1st and 24 Regiments will be consolidated into one regiment for the time being, the consolidation being drilled alternately by Cols. Clay and Alexander. It behooves the green soldier to get a move on himself, for provision has been made for supplementary Grills. The object of these drills is to bring the recruits up to the level of the more experienced men. The thoroughly compe- tent man will cut no figure at all in these supplementary drills; the only victims will be tho men who have either been inatten- tive, or who heve not as yet acquired a sufficient amount of practical experience to pass in an examination ‘as to their knowl- edge of the details of the school of the sol- dier and the school of the company. There will be a trifle of growling at the extra. work, but the man who growls will have no good excuse to offer. He comes to camp to learn, and it is the purpose of those who are here to teach him to see that he has ample opportunity of learning to the extent of his capacity before he re- turns to the city. The Engineer Battalion. The engineer battalion will put in a ccnsiderable portion of its time today on instruction in the school of the soldier and of the company, so that by next week it will be ready to devote a day to battalion werk. Then will ensue Cae ror mpany A, which is composed of sharp- Sues will do a lengthy term of extend- ed order drill; Com:anies B and C are going to construct things, lta Company B is cing into the signal business. ethe officers of the brigade are not to be negiected. It was rather conspicuous at dress parade last night that many of the officers, even some of the old timers, are Geficient in the maaual of the sword. Some of the officers handled the deadly weapon with which a carelcss government has arm- ed them in a manner so reckless that it created in the minds of bystanders the pardonable impression that they contem- plated self-destruction. Luckily, however. no such thing occurred: but in view of the possibility of such a happening, the decree has gone forth that the officers of the bri- finally arose from the table, with the re- mark: “That bread is sliced too thick.” The boys ‘were provided with vegetable soup, roast beef, mashed potatoes and stewed tomatoes for dinner yesterday, and at supper, stewed prunes, cold canned beef, bread, butter and coffee were served. ‘These are the articles regularly issued by the commissary general. It should be borne in mind, however, that each battalion has made an assessment, raising in that manner from $200 to $300 each. From this fund additional articles are purchased, with what are considered luxuries among the number. It is safe to @ssume that the meals served in camp are equal.to and as wholesome as hotel fare. The Daily Menu. Maj. Neumeyer, commissary general, has arranged the following bill of fare for the first half of the encampment; the menu of today is included, as follows: Friday, June 11—Breakfast: Canned corn- beef, boiled salt shad, hominy grits, bread, butter and coffee.

Poole, surgeon of the 4th Battalion, was medical officer of the day yesterday, and he has been detailed for similar duty tomorrow. First Lieut. R. A. Foster, surgeon of the 2d Battalion, is offi- ciating today as medical officer. Capt. Pyle, surgeon of the 2d Regiment, is the Post surgeon, while Brigade Hospital Stew- ard Weller is the hospital steward of the camp. The following instructions are observed by medical officers of the day: Their tours of duty commence at 8 o'clock and continue for twenty-four hours. They make two tours of inspection dur- ing their term of duty. The first tour commences at 8:30 o'clock and the second at d o'clock. On being relieved from duty théy present in person a written report to Maj. Hender- son on the following subjects: The gen- eral sanitary condition of the camp, in de- tail; the hygienic condition of the mess of the quarters, the quantity and quality of food served to the troops, the mode of preparation and the condition of the ves- sels in which the food is cooked and served, the disposition of dish water and slops; also disposition of garbage.

Taps sounded promptly at 10:: o'clock, the fascinating call being repeated by several buglers stationed at different points throughout the camp. As the final note of the last bugle died away, nearly 1,000 persons listened intently to a cornet solo, Tom Moore's “Oh, Believe If All Those Endearing Young Charms,” which seemed to have an entrancing effect. There was a spontaneous outburst of applause from everywhere, and then all was quiet, with but one exception, until reveille at 5:45 o'clock this morning. Posted the Provost Guard. The first ceremony at Camp Washington was the posting of a provost guard, at 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon. The organiza- tion assigned for that duty was Company D, 1st Battalion. Capt. Jesse B. K. Lee of Company C, Ist Battalion, acted as officer of the day, while Adjutant General Mosher formed the guard. Lieutenants Beall and Marshall Iwere the officers of the guard. The ceremony occurred directly in front of the office of the adjutant general. The re- cently organized National Guard Band made its initial appearance on this occa- sion, and pleased every one, the greater part of the membership of the brigade be- ing on hand to witness the guard mount. After the guard marched away the men devoted their attention to the base ball score board of The Evening Star, located the land side of Fort Washington from the assaults of the haversagked and can- teened invaders. There will be a chief umpire, with a staff of assistants, so that when the smoke of thé last blank cartridge has vanished in the atmosphere there will be an official declaration as to who got licked, and why. This variety of. field ma uvers will give the respective command- ers era nity to show their skill in the handling of troops under what may fairly be judged as the next best thing to service conditions. An Illusion Dispelled. Those guardsmen who somehow or an- others have become embued with the idea that Gen. Ordway was a sick man were considerably astonished last night when they saw the gereral ride out at the head of his staff and take command of the bri- gade at dress parade. They were still more astonished when they heard him give the commands in the sam® ringing tohes and the same snappy manner which have been the admiration of the brigade and all by- standers in the past. The commands were distinctly heard at headquarters, nearly a half mile distant. The general really felt much better when the parade was over than he did when he left his tent to pro- ceed to the ceremony. All he needs now is a little rest and a few pounds of flesh to be just as good as new. Yesterday even- The demand for passes, in order that the helders might leave camp and _ visit River View, a short distance from Fort Wash- ington, was very large last evening. Sev- eral company and battaiion commanders were obliging in this regard, but others were not. The members of the cycle com- pany were handicapped by being under the authority of the “Others.” The company is quartered near the signal tower, con- structed by the Engineer Corps at the last camp. The Enchantment of Distance. ‘The applicants for passes mounted to the top of the tower and there had the poor satisfaction of viewing from a distance the dancing, shooting the chute and other amusements at the excursion resort. ~ jo, sir,” replied a staff officer of the 2d Battalion to an enlisted man of Com- pany C, in answer to a query. “Sir?” remarked the enlisted man, in sur- prised tones. “I am only a private, lieuten- ant.” : “Don’t forget to lock the door,” directed a member of the Ist Battalion, arousing from slumber just as his tent mate entered the canvas dwelling at taps last night. Captain Clarence V. Sayre, Company C, 5th Battalion, claims to have the strongest organization in camp, in peint of numbers. His report yesterday showed forty-nine men en duty.

Message to Home Folks, The folks at home have little need to worry in regard to the soldier boys, so far as the department of the interior is concerned. Without exaggeration it may be stated that the mess arrangements are to a large degree more perfect than ever reserve to quell any possible disturbance that may arise in camp. With the exception of the provost guard, Camp Washington was without protection last night, the first regular guard not be- ing mounted until 9 o'clock this morning.
