The Manasses National Jubilee,
w 11 ic:> has been arranged for July
j celebration of the fiftieth
verfiStrv of the first battle of the
Great War, will culminate July
A! next, when President Taft will
.ahJress the, Blue and the Gray at
love feast and reunion. There
will be a spectacular representa-
consisting of 48 maidens,
•each representing a State in the
order they were admitted to the
Union, all clad in red, white and
blue, an<l bearing the name of the
State across her breast. Ti >se
maidens, clasped hand in hand >
singing the national air, will repre¬
sent the reunited nation.
Mrs. Mary Speed Mercer, ot
401 ru City, N. C., has writt a
national hymn, which with spe - . 1 -
iy arranged words has ueen ado t*
■ed by the committee as “The
Manassas National Anthem.’' The
(public school children of Manassas
■-are now learning the music, which
is said U> be exceedingly tine. The
•dborus runs as follows:
“Americal all hail to thee;
Thanks be to God. who made
•us free.
North, South, East, West, hand
•clasped io haad,
United, we thy children stand!”
The address of the President on
the occasion will be at the junction
of Grant Avenue and Lee Avenue,
the two principal streets in this
town, under the grateful shade of
trees grown during the last twen¬
ty-five years.
Grant Avenue is the finest resi¬
dence street in this historic town,
and was dedicated Oct. 9, 1902, by
excursionists from the Grand
Array Encampment, then in ses¬
sion at Washington. At the cor¬
nier of Lee and Grant avenues it
is projected that statues of these
two eminent generals will some
lime be erected.
The Manassas Jubilee will be a
uuique arrangement, representing
the cordiality which exists betw een
Union and Confederate veterans.
The prevailing design will be the
red, white and blue of the lb ted
States llag, but the Confederate
battle llag will appear here and
there, showing that peace and
harmony exist between the two.
The badges which are now being
worked out by artists, will be ar
ranged on the same principle.
The jubilee committee specially
request every veteran of the war
Io address a postal at once for a
full program, including name of
writer and army service, including
also a brief patriotic sentiment.
These cards are to be preserved
forever in the Carnegie Public
Library as perpetual memorials of
an extraordinary occasion.
The committee from here last
Thursday, in Washington, intro
duced to the President, included
Lieut. George C. Hound, of the
Manassas Picket Post of Union
Veterans; Capt. Westwood Hutch¬
ison, adjutant of Ewell Camp of
Confederate Veterans; Dr. H. U.
Hoop, president of Eastern College,
aud Q. Raymond Ratcliff, presi¬
dent of Manassas Business League.
The chairman of the jubilee
committee, Lieut. Round, in an in¬
terview recently printed in the
Richmond Times-Dispatch, said
among other statements in rela¬
tion to the jubilee:
“The Hebrew nation has a cus¬
tom of a jubilee once in fifty years.
All debts were canceled, all old
scores wiped out, and there was
ref Dicing throughout all the land.
‘ Moses commanded that the
trumpet should sound for the jubi¬
