The Columbia Historical Society was born on April 12, 1894, 41 years #go, and tomorrow night's meeting will be its 281st. Allen C. Clark, long-time president of the society, says the date is par- ticularly appropriate for the discus- sion of the subject. Even before 1894, Michael I. Weller, for many years ac- tive before congressional committees in behalf of Washington, and James F. Hood, late curator of the soclety, used to confer over local affairs and the preservation of historical material concerning the District of Columbia. About the same time, Justice Alex- ander B. Hagner of the District Su- preme. Court, Ainsworth R. Spofford, librarian of Congress; Dr. Joseph M. Toner, Marcus Baker, Dr. James C. Welling and other leading Washington citizens were thinking over the same matters. The result was a conference March 9, 1894, of all interested in the his- tory of the National Capital, and this |bore fruit April 17, 1894, in the or- ganization of the society.
