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. Bead ing business men of Chattanooga, giving over their own interests to the hands of their employees, have get 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 who have made a success of big business, and the Chattanooga Reunion Asso ciation is in ik11 respects a great business institution with sufficient brain and capital to make a suc cess of the undertaking. John A. 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 he 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 he broken at Chattanooga.” Chattanooga, then, is waiting in readiness, already having opened its hearts 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 and cots and blankets 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 camp 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 to ride astride. From points in Camp 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 west and Missionary Ridge on the east, adjoining the beautiful national cemetery 'Where more than 13,000 Union soldiers were buried. Surrounded by scenes fraught with historic and vital interest for every old soldier, no arrangement could be more attractive to the veterans than the out-of-doors camp that Chat tanooga has arranged. 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 war. forty seven in all. Even those veterans who w r ere boys when they shouldered jnuskets and followed Bee 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 Bouisville. Commander in Chief of the veterans, will be seventy years old this week. An honored and prominent veteran will he 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 grhy hairs. faltering steps, and wrinkle.? th re :. a i «\vcrf.:l and grip ping appeal to the heart.

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." There is heart interest a-plenty, and tears, for the city of Chattanooga this week. Then there is a lighter interest, too, in 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.

Chattanooga will be adorned in one blaze of glory for the gr* at reunion Brilliant lights have been installed for the occasion, making the business thoroughfares aright, r than day. They were turned on for the first time May 1C. The gorgeous lights make a white way in name and In fact. I’he busi ness thoroughfares of the city are so brilliantly lighted that even in th? center of the -treets one is able to read ordinary newspaper print at night. Friends can be recognized as far away, as is possible in daylight. Thousands of patriotic Chattanoogan.s turned out to witness the first ex hibition of these lights. They were amazed at the change wrought in the appearance of the business thorough fare? at night. Chattanooga will be the best lighted city that ever en tertained the Confederate Veterans during a reunion The expense of this enterprise is borne by the merchants of Chatta nooga, and its installation cost $26,- 000. Handsome ornamental Iron posts sustain a cluster of .arge white globes at frequent interval? along the side walks in the business sections. 11,000 Globes in All. There are 11,000 of these globes and 220,000 watts are necessary to light them. In addition to these large globes, streamers of electric lights have been run along the prin cipal streets- in front of the business houses. It is doubtful If there is a better lighted city in the country than Chattanooga will be during the reunion. The expense of these lights was prorated on the front foot basis. While the reunion will be the first large gathering to see these lights, they are to be permanently sustained, and Chattanooga will have reason to be known a? the “Electric City." And the city will be a brilliant scene as well by day, with Confederate flag?, bunting, pictures on canvas of the famous Confederate generals. and other appropriate materials flaunting in every breeze. Because of an adjustment of rail road rates from we>*t of the Mis sissippi River, a larger crowd will be present at the Chattanooga reunion, probably, than at any previous as sembly. All Veterans and friends in the southeastern territory may be sure of seeing thousands of the Tex ans and others from the Trans-MIs- sfssippi Department during the re union. The Western lines having suc cumbed to the storm of protest, I he rate Is just the same for the Western Veterans and other reunion visitors as for those who are coming from the Southeastern States—one cent a mile each way. Ticket? May Ba Extended. Reunion rickety may be extended for thirty days by depositing them with a special ae**nt here. This will allow only a lengthy visit n Chatta nooga, that is ne( *ss ?ry to thoroughly enjoy ail the sigi.i« but will permit nice side trips to points in adjacent Slates at exceedingly low rates. ThB* should prove a great inducement es pecially to persons whose former homes are In the Southeast, or who have relatives In this section, or who wish to visit a particular city before returning to the Wdfcf. The same is true to a large degree of people who come from comparatively near and wish to take more of n trip than to Chattanooga. Events* connected with the great re union, Chattanooga's scenic and his toric points, the big street carnival that will he in progress all week, Southern League baseball. airship flights daily from the Veterans' camp, four fine parades, steamboat excursions on the beautiful Tennes see River—all these and more com bined with the lowest railroad fore ever granted for any kind of an oc casion, make an unparalleled oppor tunity to visit Chattanooga. Chattanooga is uniquely the city fitted for such a reunion. It is a mac- ter of history that the first steps toward organizing the Soutnern sur vivors of the Civil War-were taken In Chattanooga. The New Orleans meeting, at which the organization was effected, by the election of Gen. John B. Gordon commander-in-chief, resulted, in large measure, from agi tation started her * by Capt. J. F Shipp, and others, for an association of Confederates. First Reunion Here. • The New Orleans meeting elected General John B. Gordon to head, the organization and he called the first reunion of the association for Chat tanooga July 3. 4 and 5. 1890. Under all of the circumstances the people of Chattanooga feel that it is their duty to exert every effort to make the coming reunion a brilliant suc- (ess. It B certainly their pleasure to do so. The Chattanooga of to-day was built vince 1890. It is now a city of 100,000 with the be9t of hotel accom modations and first-class transporta tion facilities. It has 26 hotels, one; of them a modern. 12-story building costing a million dollars. The board ing house aceommo*dations are all that are to be found in a modern city of 100.000 population. The hotels, boarding houses and private families will furni 'h entertainment for 150,000 visitors. The restaurant service is first class and adequate to any de mand. History will be made during the (’huttanooga Reunion in more ways than one. Literal history will be rec orded as the result of the service of stenographers that the city will sup ply to Veterans, to take down in shorthand any statement they may desire to make concerning the bat tlefields of the community. Mr. E. M. Buchanan, a court re porter at the Chattanooga bar. was first to tender his services for this purpose. He. and other stenograph ers, will take down any statement or interview that a Veteran may desire to give to the public, reduce it to typewritten pages, and make no charge for their time and work. Many Reminiscences. There are a great many Veteran®, beyond question, who have in their minds many memories of the battlek around Chattanooga that would make good reading and add much to his tory. if they were brought out and reduced to writing. Reminiscences of a great battlefield are always in terest besides they are valua ble in throwing light on some disput ed point that may have never been cleared up heretofore. Capt. I F. Shipp, Quartermaster of the United Confederate Veterans' As sociation Is the father of this Idea. He says that at all reunions, many Veterans with stories to tell never tell them because the opportunities for writing are missing, and from the additional reason that many of the Veterans are too feeble to w'rlte a long story. They could give It $o a stenographer, however, If one was available free of cost. By the use of stenographers, ('apt. Shipp believes that a valuable fund of information will he secured during the Chattanoo ga reunion. Acting upon Uapt. Shipp's suggestion stenographers will be a part of the reunion service. The religious side of the Confed erate reunion, May 27-29, will not be neglected by Chattanooga. It was announced a day or two ago that all the pastors will throw open their churches every day to the Veterans and visitors. Prayer will be held in practically every church In Chatta nooga dally, brief addresses on relig ious topics will be delivered, and reg ular choir music provided. Some re ligious program will be announced for each day and night. Veterans From Brazil. Another unique feature of the Chattanooga Reunion probably will be the presence of former Confeder ates who have made their home In Brazil, accepting voluntary exile af ter the war between the States rather than return to Dominion of the Amer ican Government. When the local Daughters of the Confederacy issued an invitation to the ex-Confederates of Brazil to attend a reception here during the reunion, it was the first time that an invitation had been ad dressed to those exiles in South America to attend a social function at a Confederate Reunion. At the close of the war quite a number of Southerners refused to take the oath of allegiance and begin life anew under conditions that they did not like. Brazil appealed to them, and they went from nearly every Southern State and planted a colony in that country. They have a neat, prosperous village, known as Villa Americana, situated something more than 100 miles west of the city of Sao Paulo. Some members of the colony grew tired of the Brazilian life and returned home, but there are some 600 members of the colony now, or within a radius of a few miles. A special feature, too. will be the unveiling of the Alabama Monument Tuesday, the secqpd day of the Re union. Sixteen women of the South all of them the wives or daughters of Confederate heroes, will unveil the monument. The sixteen women rep resent the, aristocracy of the South, and are to be nresent at the dedica tion of the shaft as guests of the Alabama Monument Commission. f They are: Women to Take Part.
