THRONGS CHEERING THE Washington, grateful and proud, turned out this afternoon to show its appreciation of the brave boys who went to the front to repres2nt the capital of the country and the glorious banner that floats over ft in the war for humanity and the final expur- gation of monarchical institutions from the western hemisphere. The fitting culmination of the many evidences which the citizens of the District have given of their esteem for their soldiers. When the galiant Ist Regiment went to the war it marched to its point of depar- ture between the ranks of thousands and thousands of exultant patriots, who mingled their prayers with their huzzas and God- speeds. Strong arms inclosed sturdy sol- occasion was a} early In the afternoon and prepared for the great event of the day. Uniforms were brushed up, leggins put in shape and ser- vice hats given industrious rubbing with Major Hine, 84 Battalion, whisk brooms and bristle: The command tormed at 3 o'clock, dressed in fatigue uni- forms and wearing service hats and leg- gins. No arms were carried. The march to 5th and L streets, to the music of the regimental band, will be long remembered, and the immense crowd gathered in the vi- cinity and the throngs along the route of march from the armory cheered to the echo.

Then came the sad news of the inroads made by disease and hardship and priva- tion upon those devoted ranks, and great c munity heart at home filled and swelled and throbbed with pity, while the hand of help and solace s extended over to give the sufferers strength S nd fortitude to bear their ills. There days of weary waiting and eager hoping, and then the good news came that th t had been ordered home to the United States. it saw the and yellow flag of The Reception. Again community interest was aroused to practical purposes. A committee of leading citizens was formed to arrange an appro- priate reception for the returning heroes.

Today the regiment again marched through the streets of Washington to the unrestsained plaudits of the public to re- ceive the substantial evidences in lasting bronze of the sentiment entertained for them by that public. It was an outpour- ing of people who felt that they honored themseives as much as they did their repre- sentatives, and from the armory at Center Market to the rendezvous on Sth and L streets, where a stop was made previous to taking possession of Convention Hall and all the hearts tn it, the soldiers received one tremendous ovation.

Bell, a highly esteemed minister residing in Weedsport, Cayuga Co. N. ¥.. In a recent letter writes ms follows: “There has been anything that I have taken that has relley the Dyspepsia from which I bave suffered for ten yeers except the new remedy called Stuart's Dys. pepsia Tablets. Since taking them I have had no distrese at all after eating and again after long years CAN SLEEP WELL. Rev. F. L Bell, Weedeport, N. Y., formerly Idalla, Colo. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is a remaikable rem- edy, not only because tt Is a certain cure for all forms of indigestion, but because It seems to act as thoroughly in old chronic cases of dyspeysia as well as in mild attacks of Indigestion or bitio ness. A person has dyspepsia simply bec the stomach ix overworked, all it wants is a harmless, vegetable remedy to digest the food and thus give it the much needed rest. ‘This te the secret of the success of this peculiar remedy. Ne matter how weak or how much dis- ordered the digestion may be, Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will digest the food whether the stomach works or not. New life and energy 1s given not orly to the stomach, but to every organ and m in the body. A trial of this splendid modicine Will convince the most skeptical that Dyspesia and all stomach troubles can be cured. The tab- lets are prepared by the F. A. Stuart Co. of Mar- shall, Mich., but so popular has the remeds be- come that Stuart's Dyspepsta Taplets can now be obtained at any drug store at 50 cents per pack age.

It is dovbiful whether better arrunge- ments for the event cou!d have been made by the committee in charge, although at 11 o'clock this morning, with but three hours remaining for preparaticn, it appearcé ex- tremely dubicus whether anything like the | Proper steps could be completed for the ' cepticn of the crowd expected at 2 o'civek ! this afternoon. For weeks past the execu- |tive committee bas shown praiseworthy erergy in perfecting plens for the dedica- ticn cer nor ies. The Speakers. As previously announced, Governor Tyler accepted an invitation to be present and make an address, as did also Senator Daniel and Representative Rixly of Vir- ginia and Messrs. A. A. Lipscomb and J. E. Clements, attorneys of this city, resid- ing in Alexandria county. When a reporter of The Star reached the court house, about 11 o'clock this morning, he found a small crowd already gathered, engaged in a more or less critical examina- tion of the new structure. This handsome temple of justice is regarded by many, however, as a model of present-day archi- tecture, being built of red pressed brick, trimmed with stone, while a fine clock tower rises to a height of 150 feet from the ground, giving style and symmetry to the building from all points of view. The ground for the site was donated to the county by Messrs. George P. Robinson, Daniel K. Trimmer and L. A. Lodge. The weather this morning, while some- what threatening, did not affect the tendance to any marked extent, and at noon the prospect was encouraging for a successful event. The program, as heretofore printed in The Star, was in the main carried out. The addresses were congratulatory to the citi- zcns of the county upon having so success- fully accomplished the long-deferred pur- pose of securing a modern temple of jus- tice, and the building declared to be worthy of the county and its pecple. Commissioner Wights Address. Among the speakers was Commissione: Wight of the District of Columbia. In the ecurse of his address Mr. Wight said: ‘The District of Columbia extends its ¢cngratulations to the people of Alexandria ccunty upon the completion of this beauti- ful building, the establishment of is no doubt a matter of very great interc and pleasure, and which I trust will not only be a matter of considerabl> importance to you, but to those of us who live across the ri . “There are very strong ties of affinity binding the people of the District of Colum- bia with those of this portion of the com- monwealth of Virginia. We cannot forget that your chief citizen, the immortal Wash ington, was so large@ instrumental in es- tablishing there the seat of the national . that was for a time his official . and that he took so great an inter- se planning of the city. Nor can we forget that the commonwealth of ia generously donated a part of its territory for the establishment of the Di trict of Columbia. Pleasant Relations Existing. “The relations which have »xisted be- tween the people of the District of Colum- bia and the people of your county have been, I believe, very pleasant. Some of our leading merchants have their residences here, and near this spot where we ar> as- sembled today lie the sacred remains of thousands of brave soldiers. We extend our congratulations on this auspicious occa- sion, and trust that this court house will prove in 2very way as beneficial as you hope to have it. “There is another bond of affinity exist- ing between the two places that is not so creditable or desirab’e. Our gamb’ers end your hospitable shores produce a -ompina- tion that is disgraceful to us and a stain upon the fair name of your state. Efforts were made a short time ago, and with cor siderable success, to remedy this condi- tion, but a gocd deal may yet be done with proper co-operation between tne District officials and the officials of this count; “I am sure that I speak not only of- ficially, but for the entire element of good citizenship in the District of Columbia, when I say that we shall be most happy to co-operate with you in any way possi- ble to remedy this evil. “In the name of the Commissioners and the citizens of the District of Columbia, I again extend our most sincere congratuia- tions.” ifT TIEANS BALDNESS.
