He quick- ly imparted the information to his officers, and like a flash it was all over the camp. The officers could hardly believe it. They aid it appeared too good to be true. The »yS are anxious to get nearer the scene of action, and were afraid they would have to remain at “Woodburn Manor” for a month or more. While the troops are happy over the news, the wives, mothers, sisters and last, but by no means least, the sweethearts of the soldier boys were greatly grieved and disappointed.

All drills were » suspended. A number of the boys, ver, practiced bridge building on their own hook. All armed with axes, they went into the adjoining wo where they feiled a number of trees and built a structure that would be a credit to men of more experi- ence. There was a very pretty and inter informal ceremony at the headqua: Major Urell during the afternoon. Mrs. King, wife of Captain King, arrived in camp with a handsome stand’ of garrison colors. The colors were presented to Cap- tain King’s company. To celebrate and properly christen the first flag to My over the District of Columbia volunteers a bot- tle of sparkling champagne was broken over the emblem of liberty.

Sure to See Cuban Service. There was a deep-seated conviction among all the officers that the gallant Ist was destined to see the most active sort of service before many days. It was learned on very good authority that several days ago the District soldiery was assured that it would have its coveted chance to distin- guish itself, and the order of Colonel Har- tigs’ command to Chickamauga is taken to be merely preliminary to sending it to the front with the army of invasion. Certainly no organization in the volunteer service is more anxious and willing to get into a ruction with the dons and hidatgoes than the officers and privates who comprise the regiment, and its distinctively national character will doubtless czuse it to be re- garded with exceptional favor by the au- thorities, when the army to settle affairs in Cuba is finally selected.

It is be- Neved that the ‘regfment wlil leave for Chickamauga Wednesday night. Senator Carter of Montana, who was at Camp at Woodlawn Manor yesterday, takes a deep per sonal interest in the District reg- iment, and this‘thorriing he saw Adjutant General Corbin ‘and Quartermaster Gener- al Ludington, Senator Carter suggested that the regiment should march through the city and be reviewed by President Mc- Kinley, Secretary Alger, the military com- mittees of the Housé and Senate and the Listrict Commissioners when it departed for the war. This was agreed to, and con- sequently Washington wiil have an oppor- tunity to see its brave boys in martial ar- ray ere they take the cars for Chickamau- ga. Ranks Filling Rapidly. Colonel Forwood arrived at the drill hall a few minutes after the noon hour and the work of physically examining the recruits at once commenced. A better class of men presented themselves for scrutiny anU in a few minutes Captain Young’s Cor mpany K had its quota complete. It took but lit- tle more time to pass the men necessary to | fill the ranks of Company I, Captain-Doug- las Simms. The naked men still came hop- ping across the hall, and before 1 o'clock Captain Looker’s Company H had com- pleted its quota. While the examination was in progress the familiar yell of the High School Cadets was heard, and the rush to the windows ered a train on the 9th street electric n act- | line loaded down with cadets on their way to the Arsenal grounds for drill, p a tory to their competitive drill next week.

The 3d Battalion is already to muster and will be mustered in this evening. Sunday at the Armory. Everything was bustle and hustle at the Center market armory in the city yester- day. A very large number of the recruits went to church, but returned to their quar- ters immediately thereafter, when they were met with the information that the Ist Regiment had been ordered to proceed to Chickamauga. Every soldier was more than glad of it. It meant a chance to get at the real work of war in Cuba, and they ssirly revelled in pleasurable expectation. The men gathered in groups and discu: the new phase of affairs with much sat faction, and the “unattache as the men are called who are generally supposed to be heart whole and fancy free, so far as the gentle sex is concerned, had lots of sport poking fun at their comrades who had been anticipating “such picnics” with their sweethearts over at Woodburn Manor.
