- TELL ABOUT TRIP
— I
See Places Around Washington
They Remember Since the
Civil War in South.
Special to the EVENING NEWS.
I South Amboy, Oct. 7—The NEWS ;
correspondent at South Amboy
promised to give the readers of this
paper something further interesting
In connection with the South Amboy
comrades trip to Washington. Wed
nesday morning Comrades Stillwell, 1
Seward and Mason made an early
ttart for their old camping grounds ;
"of fifty years ago up the Potomac, I
some eight or ten miles front- the
capital city. The old camping ground
,'was reached and old Father Time
had been unable in the rolling
around of fifty years to obliterate
the site of some of the forts erected
'at that time for the defense of the
capitol.
There has been much improve
r nient in the way of farming since
the war. Potatoes were in blossom
and the vines as green as ours in
the month of Juue.
In the afternoon the comrades
made a trip to Mt. Vernon, the homo
of Washington, which we have every
^reason to believe Is in the same con
dition as when occupied by the
lather of his country. In our opin
ion every one that can should visit
this historic place. We first visited
ι the tomb of W ashington and his
wife; their remains rest in separate
marble caskets. We then visited the
barn and coach house in which the
coach in which Washington rode wan
still housed. We then proceeded to
th" Mansion House and had the
_ asure of seeing Nellie Custis'
room, the green room and the guests'
i'oom, which were furnished with the
eaime furniture as when occupied by
Washington. Then we viewed the
river room, the dining room where
the table occupied the centre of the
room; then the west parlor, in
which there was a glass case con
taining three pairs of slippers worn
by Mrs. Washington, point lace, a
worsted flower worked by her, her
fan and many other relics of the age
in which slie lived.
vve men giancea ovev tne mueie
room in which the quaint piano rest
ed on which Mrs. Washington
brought forth sweet music for the"!
entertainment of her cuests in an
cient days, and we also visited the
Lafayette room. Last of all we vis
ited the spinning house in which
were stored the flax breaker, the
hetchelling machine, the flax spin
ning wheels, the reels for reeling the
yarn, the large spinning wheels and
the waving looai.
.Thursday morning we visited the
auk i η g building in the navy
-«•fej-riiirrt. UM^cffl&etpMlonal library, the
cab i toi congressional and senatorial
balls, the White Wonse, the official
building, aud calleU at the Hon. T.
' J. Scully's office, where we were
kindly received by nie secretary, Mr.
Scully not being in. From there we
visited the treasury building, as was
loid by one In authority that three
j, millions of dollars passed out of the
treasury each day.
from the treasury we visited the
National r jldiere' Home and other
places t?.at we have not time or
apace to enumerate. All that we can
eay. If you can, reader, go to Wash
ington and see what you can not see
In any other place in the United

SOLDIERS' HOME
GIVEN DISCUSSION
South Amboy G. A. R. Meets
for First Time After En
campment at Washington.
Spécial to the EVENING NEWS.
South Amboy, Oct. 7:—The reg
ular meeting of Wm. S. True* Post,
No. 1J8, 0. A. R., was held In the
poet room yesterday afternoon and
was quite interesting, as a number of
the comrades related some of their
experiences while attending the na
tional reunion at Washington and
other places.
A circular- letter was read from
Department Commander W. F. Wash
ington in reference to the adoption
of some new rules for the govern
ment of the Soldiers' Home at Kearny
in which he saye about one-third of
the whole number of the Inmates of
the home are hospital patients, men
tally and physically unfit to handle
money, whether it be derived from
pension or otherwise. The balance
are of three distinct classée, one of
which needs no supervision of their
money, another class devotes all or
nearly all of their pension money to
the support of dependants and
therefore need no supervision. The
other class are the unfortunates who
art.· careless ami mostly sddli led to
the use of stimulants or who from
•>;her causes are unable to care for
their personal belongings.
As we understand the rules of the
home the inmates are requlrôd
place a certain portion of their pen
sion money through the officiary of
the home in some banking institu
tion, but this must be voluntary ou
the member's part and he is also re
quired to make his will so that after
his death It will not necessitate an
investigation to find the legal heirs.
The member himself holds his de
posit book and at any time he re
quires money for legitimate pur
poses he. is at liberty through the
quartermaster to jiave a check drawn
for such amount as he may need
within the amount of his deposit.
While this is a free country and the
sentiments of many are that a man
can do as he pleases with his own
money, there Is no doubt but tbe In
auguration of those new rules will be
of great benefit to a certain class if
the old vets, who are living in the
hou»* .
