THE NASHVILLE REUNION.
j Tlio Reunion Committee sends
Souther press the good new* that all
arrangements an perfected for enter-
tabling the United Confederate Veter
ans at Nashville, Jane 14-16.
The fact that these conventions had
beoome so expensive to cities entertain
ing, so deterred action that it waa left
for Nashville to beoome boet again soon
er than waa expected. But the capital
of the Volunteer State, aided by adja
cent commonitiee, to ready. Allot the
people an in. hearty accord, and
rangamenta are each that this invita
tion, to Confederate Veterans every,
where, to extended without misgiving
in any particular. Arrangements are far
better than ever before for Veterans
to meet In their old oommanda—on the
campus of the Vanderbilt University.
Board and lodging will be provided
witlioot charge for as many as desired,
The only variation from former rules
of entertainment is that of giving tlie
"old soldiers” preference. This action
will be approved by every loyal, beauti
fa! woman Who comes to do tlmm lion,
or. While sponsors and tlieir maids of
honor will be entertained by tlieir'De
partment, Division, and Brigade Com,
menders, provision is being made for
many of them iu the homes of tlie beat
people, so the committee is confident of
as delightful a reunion as lias ever been
held.
The Confederated Southern Memorial
Association—that of tlie "Mothers of
tlie Confederacy” who never ceased
tlieir labors after caring for tlie sick
and wounded, bnt went right on erect
ing monuments for tlm dead—will hold
tlieir annual convention. Tlie United
Sons of Confederate Veterans will also
hold tlieir annual convention, with
promise of more uctive service aud zeal
than over before, hence the importance
or this reunion is second to none iu the
history of tlie organization.
An imprcaainn prevails that only a
few more of these general reunions will
be held, and us this meeting will bo the
first since the death of that magnetic
aud matchless mau. the only comman
der in Chief wliilo living, Gen. John B.
Gordon, it will be fitting to do his
memory honor by tlio largest* ntten
douce possible.

United States. There were present at
this meeting shoot eleven hundred dele
gatee. ' In addition, there were several
hundred visitors as well as the members
of the Woman’s Missionary Union, aax*

tion lusted for four days and was un
doubtedly one of the greatest conven
tions ever held by the Baptist.
One tiling aboot oar conventions U
that people do not generally understand
them. Each Baptist clinreli to an indt •

tion, simply a combination of Baptht
churches from the different states with
no power to make laws or to bind the
churches in anything that it does. All
the slates from Florida to Oklahoma

are represented in tlie Convention. In i

Great progress has been made iu the

was raised for foreign missions by Geor-
giualoue. She leads every other :tato

sions. Dicing tho conventional year
that has just began Georgia w ill raise
not less than $50,000 for the enuso cf for
eign missions. Last year 2ft new mission
arieswere cent to the foreign field by
the Baptists Moro than 2,000 Baptisms
have been reported from the foreign
’fields. At a great meeting of tho
veution, when the Southern Baptist
Theological Seminary at Louibvillo was
under consideration a collection was
takeu which was a surpriso to every
body as it amounted to the munificent
sum of $50,000. This refutes tho charge
that has been made that "Buptists have
no money.” They have money and they
are learning how to give it to carry
tho work of the Lord. Tho highwater
mark of the convention wns reached at
great Missionary Mass Meeting at
which there were 12 or 15 men and
tutu who ottered themselves tVr the
eigu field. Most of them will bo accep-
ted aud daring tho year it is confidently
oxpocted that uot loss than 50 new Bap

que cities in America, and one of these
is Salt Lake City." It is not only uni
que in its temple, tabernacle and other
Mormon church institutions, but quaint
in appearance, with its wide streets, im
mense blocks and martial rows of shade
trees. It has, perhaps, more attractions
to the square yard than any city in the
country, and its climate, while temper
as, ail the year round, is particularly
delightful in summer. The Great Salt
Lake, with its magnificent Saltair resort,
where the wales to “deader and denser”
than that in the Dead Sea in Palestine
isaa attraction in itself that people
come miles to see. There are many
cool mountain and lake resorts near by.
