Manufacturers* Association embraces
nearly 1,000 of this nurhber. Its pres

member of the Arm of Daniel Miller ft

In the coyntry.
.Mr. Eugene Levering.of E. Levering

of the board of trade, which us well as
the merchants and manufacturers and
the other bodies, have extensive trade
In every city in the South, many of the
firms being large investors in South
ern railroads and other enterprises.
While several hundred members of
Baltimore, Nov. 30.— 1 The Cotton
States and International Exposition has
attracted more visitors from the North
and West than the fair Southland ever
welcomed before. Literally they have
come from Maine to California and
have been amazed that a city of less
than 100,000 people, in one of the smaller
states of the Union, could plan and
carry out an exposition, which, as
President Gilman of Johns Hopkins
University says, has exercised a greater
educational influence than even the Co
lumbian Exposition, conceived by Chi
cago, with its million and more peo
ple. The representative citizens of the
Metropolis and its sister cities of Chi?
cago, of Cincinnati, of St. Louis, of
Toledo and of Philadelphia have come

to Atlanta in special trains. New Eng
land has been represented by delega
tions from Connecticut and Massachu
setts and by the New England Cotton
Manufacturers' Association. Societies
have held their annual meetings in the
Gate City. Congresses of international
repute have held their deliberations
here, and, in short, the country has
recognized the exposition as an event
of national Importance.
AND NOW MARYLAND IS COMING.
The men of Maryland have waited
for sister states to display their inter
est In Atlanta and the South, and while
they waited have made preparations
for a testimonial of their friendship
for their Sputhern brethren and of
their appreciation of the exposition,
Which will be remembered by the peo-
'Je of Atlanta and Georgia as long as
tne exposition shall linger in memory.
Maryland Is coming and Baltimore Is
coming. The executive of the state,
the executive of the metropolis of the
South, the head of the Catholic church
in this country, the most eminent
Protestant divines in Maryland, the
flower of its soldiery, bank presidents,
manufacturers, merchants of every
kind, renowned lawyers, jurists, prom
inent state officials, the city council,
delegations from the principal socie
ties, and last, but by no means leant,
scores of Maryland’s fairest women will
on Maryland Day honor the exposition
in Piedmont Prfrk by participating In
the exercises.
ylt 1b to be a general and generous
demonstration of the feeling for the

these associations will go to Atlanta,
committees have been appointed to
carry out the details for them. The
committee of arrangements consists of
Mr. W. H. Matthai of Matthai, Ingram
& Co., Mr. J. Frank Supplee, of Hodges
Bros. Co., both firms having important
Southern connections, and Mr. John R.
Bland, secretary of the Merchants’ and
Manufacturers’ Association. To these
gentlemen much of the success of the
trip is due.
CARDINAL GIBBONS COMING.
Among the distinguished men of this
country who have taken a deep interest
In the South is Cardinal Gibbons, who
is to be one of the guests of the trip,
the head of the Catholic church in
America, who has a strong feeling for
the South, and has become widely
known for his liberal and progressive
views. This distinguished prelate who
is poular with all classes In Baltimore
will doubtless meet with a warm re
ception from the Catholics of the
South.
- Hon. Frank Brown, Governor of Ma
ryland, who is to be another guest of
honor, Is enthusiastic over the visit to
the Atlanta exposition, and will take
his entire staff at his personal dxpense.
Governor Brown is one of the self-made
men of the South. Although hardly of
mlddlfe age, he is president of the Bal
timore Traction Contpany, one of the
largest street railway systems in the
United States, and a director and stock
holder In several* banks. He is noted
for Ills love of horses and owns one of
the most extensive and finest stock
farms in America. One of his staff,
who will doubtless receive a hearty
ovation, is Coi. Frank Brown, Jr., his
13-year-old son, who is probably the
youngest commissioned colonel in the
country.
Hon. Alcaeus Hooper, the mayor of
Baltimore* who is aiding to make the
dertionstrafiori a “fitting one, and who
will be another distinguished guest, is
a stockholder in several cotton mills,
and a prominent capitalist. He was re
cently elected to the mayoralty toy a
popular vote, and already has acquired
an extended reputation for hit* ability
In his new office. He is a noteworthy
philanthropist, aipong his gifts being
3200,000 to the Woman’s College of this
city.
Rev. W. U. Murkland, Rev. H. M.
Wharton and Rev. Maltby D. Babcock,
three eminent divines of the Protestant
faith, ore also to be among the noted
members of the party, ns well as Hon.
John P. Poe, attorney general of the
state, Hon. George L. Wellington, who
will probably be the next United States
senator, Hon. John V. L. Findlay and
ex-Govermor William Pinckney White.
All of these gentlemen are famous ora-
THE GALLANT FIFTH REGIMENT.
{South, which Ions established business
relations, the more sacred associations
ol civil war, and a fraternal friendship
of years' standins has created and
made permanent. This Is the oppor
tunity for Baltimore and Maryland to
display such a feeling, and it will take
advantage of the opportunity to the
utmost.
There Is good reason for such dem
onstration as proposed, as the pros
perity and wealth of this city have
beeh largely acquired through Balti
more's relations to the South. It 1s
under heavy obligations, and It Is hut
natural that the people of all classes
and all vocations should seek to show
their appreciation in such a way as
opportunity now offers. Owing to Bal-

tlmore's prominence as a manufactur
ing and mercantile community and as
a money center. It Is well able to up
hold Its title as the metropolis of the
South.
While the citizens generally- are con
tributing liberally and aiding In every
way to make the present demonstra
tion a qredlt to the city, the business
asodstlons, the merchants and manu
facturers, tbe Board of Trade, the
East Baltimore Business Men's Asso
ciation, the Oldtown Merchants and
Manufacturers' Association, and the
South Baltimore Association are act
ively moving In the matter. Altogether
they represent fully 3,009 of the prom-
tors, and will take part In the dedica
tory exercises.
Several of the leading clubs of the
city have chartered special cars. Among
these Is the Maryland Club, the princi
pal social organization.
MILITARY FEATURES.
the military features of the Mary
land pllgrimage lnto the Southland will
long be remembered. The famous
Fifth regiment, Maryland National
Guard, with full military band and
drum corps, at least two battalions of
tho Fourth regiment, the Fifth regi
ment veteran corps and a section of
the-Maryland Naval Reserves, with a
battery of artillery, will accompany
the commander of the Maryland mili
tary, Gen. Stewart Brown, who will be
accompanied by his staff. The Fifth
regiment has acquired national reputa
tion on account of Its personel, high
standard of efficiency and brilliant re
cord since Its organization. It Is com
posed of men from the, finest families
In the South, while Its board of officers
are selected from Baltimore's leading
buslneaa and professional men. It was
.organised In 1807, and It is expected
will go South With <00 men In its
twelve companies. The Filth Maryland
and New York Seventh are classed by
military experts, as the two finest reg
iments In this country.
Since Its organization It has distin
guished Itself In many ways. It played
a prominent part la suppressing the
railroad riots In Baltimore In 1877, and
laat year at Frostburg, Md„ was ac
tive in quelling the great coal miners'
strike. Its predecessor made a most
gallant record In the late war.
Its first colonel was James R. Her
bert, who commanded the Second
Maryland Infantry. C. 8. A., and who
was desperately wounded at Gettys
burg. where one company of his regi
ment went into the chsrge of Culp's
Hill with four officers and ninety men.
and one lieutenant led back sixteen
men at the close. Among Its other
colonels have be n Zellinger and Smy-
Ington, both gallant Confederate offi
cers. and its present colonel Is Freak
M&rkoe, .who, at the first battle of
Manassas, was aid to Gen. S. D. Lee
at Atlanta and afterwards aid to Gen.
Gordon and surrendered with him at
Appomattox. Gen. Gordon said of
him: ''The Confederate army had in Its
service no more faithful or devoted sol
dier."
The Fifth hss made several Southern
trips hut this Is the first to the Gate
City. It attended the unveiling of the
famous Lee monument at Richmond In
June 1890, visited Raleigh, N. C., In
1891, participated In the Cleveland In
auguration In 1892. and has visited New
Orleans, Boston, Philadelphia and New
York on invitation from commands
from these cities. Everywhere It has
been received with the greatest enthu
siasm and Its parades and drills have
eleclted the warmest admiration.
Its trip to New Orleans In 1884 was
perhaps the most eventful In Its his
tory. It remained during Carnival
week and literally took the city by
storm on account of Its fine appear
ance. Each summer It annually en
camps at some watering place on the
Atlantic coast and forms a great at
traction. It haa a large armory In
Baltimore, where regular mlltarly balls
are among the brilliant social events
of the season.
Tho Fourth Regiment Is In command
of Col. William Howard, and Is rapid
ly coming to the front as * military
organisation of high efficiency. Its
officers are well-known residents of the
city and It will doubtless be accorded
a warm reception In the Southern cities
It visits.
The Fifth Regiment Veteran Corps,
already referred to, 1b composed of vet
erans of the late war, who were pro
moted for their bravery. It comprises
about 200 men and Is In command of
PRESIDENT MILLER.
Col. George R. Gaither. It ranks high
as a social organization, and Is of sim
ilar character to tho Gate City Guards,
the Cherokee Guards of Memphis and
similar organizations. Like the other
commands. It will be decorated with
the orange and black of Maryland, and
J. FRANK SUPPLEE.
It may be said that Marylanders will
he known throughout tho Southern trip
by these colors.
Tho programme of the trip, so far ns
completed. Is to leave Baltimore on the
evening df December 4th. on the steam
ers Columbia and anc Moseley, which
have been especially chartered, arriv
ing in Portsmouth in the morning.
Here special trains of Pullman cars
will be taken and -the start to Atlanta
made over the Seaboard Air Line,
reaching tho destination on December
6th. Stops will probably ho made at
several points en route, and tho man
agement of the trip Is considering sev
eral visits to accept Invitations from
other cities.
DISEASE AND bEATH
Force their way Into .many a house
hold that might be, protected from
their Inroads, by the simple precaution
of keeping In the houso* that benign
family mcdfclno and safeguard ot
health, Hostetler's Stomach Bitters.
Particularly where there are children,
should It be kept on hand as a prompt
remedy for Infantllo complaints, In
their outset easily conquerable, hut
which, If allowed to engraft themselves
on the delicate childish organism, arc
not easily dislodged, and speedily work
grievous mlnchlof. Irregularity of tbe
bowels, Indigestion and biliousness arc
ailments of common occurrence In the
household. Children, living In mala
rious regions, are'more liable to be at
tacked with chills and fever than
adults, and the ravages of that fell
disease In their system arc speedier
and more serious. In remote localities,
far from professional aid, it Is espe
cially desirable.
