Wild Indiana, wrapped In blankets and wearing all the war paint and feathers they could muster, followed a herd of bulTalo through Atlanta's streets Monday morning. They were followed by a horde of Cossacks, tribe of Moorish warriors end a whole war, party of Filipinos. Interspersed In the procession were cowboys, Japa nese soldiers, artillery, prairie schoon ers and every other variety of unusual type that could be secured for a big show. All of which means that Pawnee Bill and his band have come to town ageln. The show arrived Sunday morning and began to get busy nn the lot. All day Sunday a crowd watched the prepara tions for the performances on Monday, chatted with the Indians nnd watched the cowboys shoot craps In the shadow of the tent*. Performances will be given Monday afternoon and night. But the parade was the big thing. Early In the morning the streets were crowded with watchers and every win dow along the line of inarch had Its half dotsn eager faces. The parade started promptly at 10 o'clock and tra versed the principal uptown streets, preceded by a detachment of mounted police. A Big Parade. If there Is anything better than real old circus parade It Is a wild West show. Almost everybody has seen the gilded cages and the elephants and heard the roaring of the lions behind the bars. But Indians are not so plen tiful. Even the cigar stars variety Is rapidly dropping out of existence and the big chiefs and the squaws In Mon day's parade tfere the central figures of attraction. It was s little hard to tell a warrior from his wife, for the ladles are up-to-date In their riding and wear divided skirts, which closely resemble the trousers of their liege lords. But Indiana were not the whole show. The cowboys were cheered as they passed the corners and when a detach ment of Jop soldiers l'mle past limy were given an ovation. The Cossacks, seated high on their clum-y saddles and Jolting up and down us they rode, came In for a share of the attention. The big prairie schooner, a relic of t lie overland days, caused as much com ment as any part of the parade. The Wild West. Mounted heralds. Major Gordon W. Lillie, "Panne* Bill."

Cun ningham, editor of The Confederate Veteran, of Nashville, has sent to Gov ernor Terrell, of Georgia, as well as the chief executives of all the Southern states, a letter urging the suspsnslon of the country schools In order that the children might aid In saving the cotton. Mr. Cunningham has travsled over a large part of the cotton-producing sec tion of the country, anu In his letter points out the gravity of the situation. The letter Is as follows; My Dear Sir; Pardon the liberty I take In addressing you. Circumstances have caused me to travel, within less than two weeks, almost entirely aoross the cotton belt of the South, and 1 have found cottdn conditions so alarm ing everywhere that I feel Impelled to try to sound a' learning' th Wgh imtist Influential sources and to suggest the best, if not the only possible remedy. The Immense draft of laborers from the farms by Improvements In cities nnd the building of steam and etectrlo rall- tvays, togsther with the prolonged rainy weather, have delayed the pick ing of cotton so that tt seems ltmiossf- ble to save It fexoept by united effort. The particular suggestion that I de sire to make Is the suspension'of pub lic and private schools for several weeks, nnd that all school children be urged to help save the cotton with whloh the Mouth le so greatly blessed. Urge farmers to pay the highest prices, and appeal to parents or weatth ns a patriotic duty to Induce their children to help save the cotton. It Is a condi tion as seriously threatening as It our cities were on fire; It Is Indeed appall ing. Every Southern patriot should co operate In saving the millions and mil lions of value In cotton that may be ut terly ruined before It can be saved by the usual methods/ Respectfully. ‘: 11 j. R. A.

The executive committee of the Southern Assembly has sst aside next Sunday as a day of prayer to God to send more mlnlsteri to help the church In the crisis It now faces. It has brought to the fort with startling force the scarcity of laborers In the field, nnd the need for prayer In the churches and homes for men to come forward to minister the Divine Word. Actual figures show a remarkable state of affairs. In the Jurledlctlon of the Southern Assembly there are $,1$6 churches, with only $41 regular minis ters to serve them. These 84t supply 110 churches, leaving 2,026 without ministerial guidance. Hope for supplying these churchee lies in simply taking the pastor of some other church, which help* conditions in one community to the hurt of another. The supply Is nowhere near the de mand, Last year only forty-three min isters were licensed to presch In the Southern Presbyterian church, but this was almost offset by thirty-nine deaths. It lias come to pass that almost a* fast as new churchss are established old ones are dlseolved for lack of min isterial service. With that kind of con dition existing the church It losing ground Instead of growing. As an Index to the trouble besetting the church It will prove startling to know that In 1$05 flfty-one nnv churches were established, but within the same period forty-four went out of business becaus* no ministers could be secured to serve them. The Northern Presbyterians face no such problem. With 7,300 churches they have 7,700 ministers. Facing such a grave problem. Southern Presbyte rians next Sunday will gather full force In their churches to offer up pleas for divine eld In sending strong, conse crated young men to the ministry. A call for prayer has been sent out by the executive committee. MISS HEATH SPONSOR AT REUNION FOR SO, GEORGIA BRIGADE Special to The Georgian. Waycross, aa., Nov. 6.—General Joel L.
