Committee Greatly Encour aged?Detroit Post Secures Quar ters?Work of the Committees. Chairman B. H. Warner and his asso ciates of the citizens' committee on the 1W2 encampment of the G. A. R. are much grat ified at the acceleration reported by mem bers of the committee of finance as mark ing: the subscription of farther sums to the encampment fund. The rate at which these additional subscriptions have b?tn record ed for the past week or so has been about $50 a day. The whole sum now available to the committee is and much more is 111 sight. This morning's mail brought two contributions?Z. D. Blackis tone, $5, and Christiani Brothers. $5. Detroit Post. No. 3.N4, has engaged quarters at the Arlington for about seventy-five members, and an indefinite number of other nersons has arranged to leave Detroit Sun day," October 5. spend Monday at Gettys burg and arrive in Washington Tuesday morning, October 7. The post will travel In a special car and carry about 200 persons in addition to its regular members. Plans for Martial Music. Col. Hay's plans for martial music during the encampment have excited the most en thusiastic approbation. He proposes to have all bands in line on the day of the veterans' parade play only the marches which were well known during the war of the rebellion. Many of these s<leot'ons have been heard most infrequently since that day. and the old soldiers in Washington look forward with the greatest plewsure to hearing them anew. To this end the pres ence of the veterans' band of 1?."> pieces will contribute greatly. If the trouble over the musician rate continues, these men will head the line, playing such airs as "Who Will Care for Mother Now?" "Brother's Fainting at the Door" and "The Bells Go Ringing for Sarah." But the trouble over the musician rate is almost certain not to continue, and the Marine Band will proba bly head the line, swinging along to "Tramp, Tramp, Tramp," or "The Girl I Deft Behind Me," and these less familiar numbers will be left to the veteran musi cians stationed elsewhere in the parade. The Reunions. A meeting of tihe committee on reunions was held last night. Col. John McElroy pre siding. The attendance was large and con siderable routine business was done. Act ing on the suggestion of the committee on band music an Invitation was extended to the National Association of War Musicians to organize a band of 125 or 150 pieces for the encampment. A subcommittee for the entertainment of survivors of the cavalry corps was announced by C?pt. J. W. Lewis, chairman of that section, as follows: Capt. Henry Sherwood, 4th Michigan; Capt. Peter Riley, 2d Iowa: Capt. W. I'. Pierce, 12th Kentucky; Capt. J. C. Squires, 15th Penn sylvania. Dr. A. B. Jameson and Mr. W. Howard Mills were transferred to the 5th Army Corps section. Mr Edward K. De Puy was elected vice chairman of the 2d Army Corps reunion, vice J. \V. M. Keogh. resigned. Committee meetings are announced as follows: Survivors of the 4th Army Corps, at the Ebbit House, July 11. at 8 o'clock; survivors of the 2Hd Army Corps, at head quarters, July 11. at 8 o'clock; the liith Army Corps, at headquarters, July it, at 8 o'clock; the 7th Army Corps Association and all cavalrymen who served west of the Mississippi generally, at headquarters <his evening. Meeting of W. R. C. Committee. The committee on Women's Relief Corps, Mrs. Lida A. Oldroyd chairman,"held an en thusiastic meeting at the headquarters of the women's citizens'committee last evening. The books presented were audited for the i second time, and show that the ladies are succeeding very well Indeed with their col lecting. While most of the members appointed upon Mrs. Oldroyd's committee have re ported and taken pass books, there are a few who have not. This phase of the work was discussed fully at last evening's meet ing. and by a unanimous vote of the ladies present it was decided that every memb? r of the committee should get to work and attend the committee meetings or resign. Mrs. Oldroyd stated that she h:ul selected her committee carefully and with a view to the amount of work each could accom plish. "If the ladies whom I have appointed do not take enough interest to even attend the committee meetings they certainly should not remain upon the committee to share the honors that may come to those who have worked hard for them," she said. Mrs. Oldroyd explained that she wanted all the members of the committee to report each meeting in person whether they had any collections on their books to audit or not. "I want to know that the ladies whom I have honored with these appointments appreciate the favor. 1 say 'honored' ad visedly," she said in conclusion, "because I consider It always an honor to work for the veterans, and particularly at this time." The next meeting will be held August 4. Plans are being perfected !>y the ladies to give a two days' "Feast of Danterns." or evening lawn fete, in order to raise funds for the entertainment of visitors in October. Four of the big organizations of women? the Woman's Relief Corp, Ladies of the G. A. R., Legion of Loyal Women and I-adies' Auxiliary of the U. V. L.?will join in this fete and thare the profits. Distribution of Funds. There is still confusion in the mind of the public as to how these women's organiza tions will use the funds they are separatelv acquirlng. Mrs. Mussey said today that the funds available for her branch of the encampment work, being widely inadequate for the demands upon it, made it necessary for her to ask the aid of the organizations interested. Two of the four mentioned will have a meeting of their national conven tions in October at the same time as the encampment of the Grand Army of the Re public. It Is customary to serve lunch to the working delegates in the national conven tions of each. To provide for these lunches the local organizations in the District of Columbia have pledged themselves. The Woman's Relief.Corps committee, which had for Its chairman the president of the department, Mrs. Lida A. Oldroyd, expects to serve lunch to *So<? officers and delegates of Its national convention. The I-adies of the G. A. H., Mrs. Emma Hawkes chair man, will be prepared to serve lunch to about 250 in Its national convention, and the other organizations of women will do the same. Each of these organizations will collect Its own n?oney and expend it in its own way. While It Is ostensibly for Mrs. Mus sey, she will not handle a penny of It, nor will she direct a penny of its expenditure. Yet the aid will be rendered her in reliev ing her of the burden of raising the funds for each. The Legion of Loyal Women, which will hold no national convention, has volunteer ed to raise the J5"0 necessary to entertain the army nurses. "All the women's organizations have gone energetically to work to raise these funds." said Mrs. Mussey. "They are working in the utmost harmony with each other, and I hope the public will be kind to them. It Is a*well known fact," con tinued Mrs. Mussey, "that women form a large contingent of these national encamp ments, and that they come prepared to spend lots of money in the shops. We tyant to entertain them generously, and I believe that we shall be able to do this." President's Footman Promoted. Among the promotions In the White House force made by Secretary Cortelyou at the beginning of the fiscal year was an increase In salary for Charles A. Reader, President Roosevelt's footman. Reader was President McKlnley's footman. He was formerly an elevator boy in the Ebbitt House, where President McKlnley boaded when <l member of the House. He knew and liked Reader and gav? the latter a po sition on being; elected President. Reader is much liked by President Roosevelt's family and his promotion ia regarded as a meritorious one.
