Chattanooga Makes Great Prepara
tions for Reception of Veterans.
Beautiful Sponsors to Figure Promi
nently in Festivities at Gathering.
(CHATTANOOGA, May 24.—Chat
tanooga’s cates are flung open wide,
f in anticipation of the coming this
week of the slender gray army of the
Stars and Bars and their gayer allies,
the Sons and Daughters of the Con
federacy. And the sponsors. Par
ticularly the sponsors and their
maids.
The reunion will begin Monday af
ternoon, and until the closing ball
Thursday night will be the biggest,
the busiest, the gladdest, the tender -
est occasion of the city’s history.
Everything is in readiness. Lead
ing business men of Chattanooga,
giving over their own interests to
the hands of their employees, have
set about to prepare for the veterans
and the other visitors. The organiza
tion as a result is complete and per
fect. It was effected by men ^vho
have made a success of big business,
and the Chattanooga Reunion Asso
ciation Is in all respects a great
business Institution with sufficient
brain and capital to make a suc
cess of the undertaking.
John ▲. Patten, leading financier
of Chattanooga who has been fore
most In planning for the reunion,
said to-day there no longer doubt ex
isted that the occasion would be
the greatest of its kind.
“All of Dixie land is looking for
ward to the Confederate reunion with
keen anticipation,” he said, “and
with confidence that the records for
a tendance and pleasure will be
broken at Chattanooga.”
Chattanooga, then, is waiting in
readiness, already having opened its
fcfearts and hands.
> No reunion organization ever work
ed harder than has the Chattanooga
committee during the last three
months. Camp Stewart, the unique
quarters provided for the veterans,
was by far the biggest Job on the list,
and has been put in first class condi
tion, ready for its thousands of guests.
Tents are up a,nd cote and blankets
y are in place. The dining tent and
kitchen equipment are complete in
every detail. More than 200 helpers
are necessary for this service.
Attractive Camp.
In the camp, a wonderfully attrac
tive arrangement has been made for
the entertainment and care of the
old soldiers. As a spectacle alone the
(amp and its surroundings is in
spiring. Every provision has been
made for comfort, even luxury.
There is one feature of the parades,
however, that has been definitely set
tled and this is that no woman who
dons a bifurcated riding habit will
be allowed to appear. Gen. J. P. Hick-
man, chief marshal and commander
of the Tennessee Division has issued
a special order forbidding women
tb ride astride.
From points In (’amp Stewart—
the camp has been named after Gen
eral Alexander P. Stewart, the Con
federate leader—the veteran will have
a fine view of Lookout Mountain to
the west, rising like a giant sentinel
over a plain that has been likened to
the plain of Marathon by more than
one writer. Missionary Ridge lies
to the south and east of the camp. In
fact, the camp is situated about half
way between the mountain on the
wrest and Missionary Ridge on the
east, adjoining the beautiful national
cemetery where more than 13,000
£Tnion soldiers were buried.
The first Interest in the reunion
necessarily is the interest in the vet
erans. This year the interest is more
poignant and human than ever be
fore. Years have passed since the
wo.r, forty serven In all. Even those
veterans who were boys when they
^ mi Me red muskets and followed Lee
or Jackson or Johnson, are now close
to the mark of three score and ten,
and are feeble with it all.
General B. H. Young, 70.
General Bennett H. Young, of
Louisville, Commander in Chief of
the veterans, will be seventy years
old this week. An honored and
prominent veteran will be General
Simon Bolivar Buckner, the only sur
viving lieutenant general of the Con
federacy, now in his ninetieth year.
Judge Orr, of Columbus, Miss., also
close to ninety, will be present, the
only surviving member of the Con
federate Congress. These figures are
typical. There are thousands of
others of reverend years, In whose
gray hairs, faltering steps, and
wrinkles there Is a powerful and grip
ping appeal to the heart. The gray
army is slenderer than it was last
year; it will march with the realiza
tion that next year its numbers will
be fewer. Its songs will be hymns
to voice a premonition of the end.
More than anything else they will
sing “God be With You Till We Meet
Again.”
Then there is a lighter interest, too,
An the gay society of the reunion. The
veterans and distinguished women
who are delegates to the Confederate
Memorial Association, In session at
the same time, as well as the young
women sponsors for each military or
ganization and their retinues, will be
guests at a brilliant round of enter
taining.
Many Balls Planned.
Ball after ball will be given, a
Sponsors’ ball, a Veterans’ ball, a
Sons of Veterans’ ball, a huge lawn
party late one afternoon, with a
pavilion for dancing and three bands
playing.
The sponsors each with three to
five attending maids, will parade one
afternoon accompanied by outriders
and bands, with flags flying. Five
hundred automobiles have been en
gaged for this event, and the noted
beauties of the South will ride in
them, making of the event a most
spectacular thing.
Miss Kate Daffan, of Texas, sponsor
for the South, will lead the parade,
and with her will ride General Young,
commander in chief. After them will
he veterans, sponsors and maids, the
Sons of Veterans, chief sponsors, de
partment and division sponsors,

‘Mouche’ Has Reached Atlanta

Everybody’s Just Crazy About It
Get-together Convention for Party
Reorganization Authorized by
Executive Committee.
Here’s the
“mouche,”
the newest
fad in stock
ing decora
tion, as it ap
pears on the
first Atlanta
girl to adopt
the fashion.
Miss lam Onthejob Creates Sen
sation as She Strolls With
Young Moons on Hose.
Great agitation on Peachtree.
"O, lookey!”
Mies lam Onthejob was passing,
wearing something besides a slit
skirt.
It looked like a young moon—and it
was pinned on her stocking. It was
attached like a moon—though not in
the same place—Just above the hori
zon of the slipper at the point where
the foot leaves off and the ankle gets
in its work.
It also had the appearance of a
brooch dislocated from its usual out
look and carried south by a landslide.
Drew Everyone’s Eye.
Every time the lady took a step it
showed. And every time it showed it
sparkled. And every time it sparkled
—well, the newsboys and the rest of
the population just bent forward and
just drew in breath, that’s all.
“Some moonshine!"—Reviving rub
berneck, feebly.
But it’s the very latest what-you-
may-cail-it or thing-a-ma-jig in At
lanta, though its right name is just
plain "mouche." Everybody is just
crazy about it in New York and Lon
don and around. That is, MOST
everybody.
Atlanta’s department stores have
already got it—or ’’them." rather, for
they come in pairs. They are de
signed to be worn with slit and lift
Skirts, or any other drapery or dress
that permits a view of the ankle.
Various Designs—and Prices.
They come In ail varieties, from
plain ordinary at most any price, to
the uncommon extraordinary—bill
charged.
There are various designs and they
may glitter and sparkle with rhine
stones or be of plain gun metal finish,
bead, gold or silver.
The colors may be chosen to match
the gown and hosiery, or to contrast
with them—any old way you like.
At last the poet's phrase of “pass
ing with twinkling feet” is realized.
O, you twlnklefoot!

NASHVILLE, TENN., May 24.—
Upon being served with a sumptuous
meal which he had ordered in Fau-

30, drew a .32-caliber automatic re

through the ceiling and, turning the
weapon against h1s body, sent a bul
let through his breast. He was over
powered, finally, by the startled
guests, and loudly cursed them fyr
their interference.
I>atham claimed that he was de
spondent over his inability to curb
excessive drinking and desired to
commit suicide in a sensational man

cover.

Cows Drink Dew and
Put Water in Milk
Chicago Woman Telit Court Why I
She Is Accueed of Thin
ning Fluid.
CHICAGO, May 24.—If you don’t
want water In your milk, don’t let
the cow* get up early In the morn
ing. Mrs. John O'Connor, who has a
dairy, was haled Into court for the
second time on the charge of having
too much water in the milk to suit
the health department.
"Your honor,” she said, “the trouble
Is my cows got up too early In the
morning’. Now, you know, there’s dew
on the grass then. And dew Is water.
The cows don’t get very good grass
in May, so they drink lots of water.”
"That's so,” said Judge J. J. Sulli
van. musingly. “I remember driving
In the cows when I was a boy, and
I can hear my father saying there is
more water in the milk in May than
almost any other month. Well, go
home, Mrs. O'Connor, but let ths
cows sleep a little longer. If you do,
we’ll give this dew theory another
trial.”
