Work Crocs I >r;xvelv < .V*'?r.s tin LOUSVII.I.K, Kv., february ,; Tbc Confederate Veterans of Louis ville and of Kentucky are makin ur ex tensive preparations fur thc < utertaiu nient of their old comrades al tho tenth annual Reunion, which is t<> he held in this city from May 'Ml lo June ?J, inclusive. Headquarters have been opened on 4th street, r j i-' i : t. in the heart of tho business portion of thc town and tho severa! committees aro hard at work in the interest of the Veterans. The recent political trou bles, while lo a certain extent causing a stagnation in nearly all business, have not appreciably affected thc He union \vurk. The headquarters of the executive committee is in Polytechnic Hall and those employed there arc busy for several hours every day. Thc official badge has been decided upon. At a recent meeting of thc committee Chairman Henry Kaufman made a report on badge which was adopted. It will be as follows: For all the old soldiers attending the Re union a celluloid shield, with a por trait of (Jencrai Robert K. Lee. Vor all other visitors the souvenir badge will be a celluloid canteen with a por trait of Miss Winnie Davis on one side aud thc Winnie Davis rose on thc other. Roth Gens. Wade Hampton and ?loo Wheeler have indicated that they will be herc and both aro scheduled for a speech. Many brigades have signified that they will be fully represented and quite a number have already engaged quarters for tho Reunion. So far on ly two infantry brigades have engaged quarters, tho "Stonewall Jackson Hrigade," of thc Army ?d' Northern Virginia, and "the Orphan Hrigade," of the Army of Tennessee; but then: will bc cavalry brigades galore: " Hamp ton's Legion," "Wheeler's cavalry," "Ashby's cavalry,' "Forrest's com mand," "Mosby's men," ".Morgan's men," and several others have engag ed quarters. It is thought that the number of Veterans who will attend thc Louisville Reunion will far exceed that of any previous gathering of old Confcds and arrangements aro being made accordingly. There is no hall in the city large enough to accommodate tho vast num ber of men who will attend thc Louis ville Reunion, BO Veteran II. V. Mc Donald, an expert architect, has drawn plans for a building which will bc erected especially for tho occasion. It will bo 105 by 200 feet, and will con sist of a large rectangle, to each cor ner of which will bc attached a square pavilion. The entrance will bo made through five wide doors into a hail 75 feet long, and through this hall, by five similar doors, thc main auditor ium is reached. One of thc morning papers says the first floor is to consist of a great nnvo 175 feet long and 75 feet wide. Tho stage will fill the en tire end of the nave opposite the main entrance, and the committee rooms will occupy thc space at thc end of the aisles to the left and right of thc stage. Toilet rooms, cloak rooms, etc., will bo provided for near thc stage and under thc stairs at each side of tho front. The greatest distance of any scat io tho Auditorium from tho speaker's Btand will be 120 feet. There will bo two galleries, either of which may be entirely separated from thc other if desired. The house will bc built with upright joints, stripped for the main body, and with pavilions covered -with ship lap boards. It will bc whitened on thc outside and tinted on thc in side The roof will have a waterproof covering. Thc windows will bc mova ble, many of them with flags used as panels, thereby producing a fine ef fect. Thc stage will scat 200; thc first floor, 3,000; inc sub-gallcry, 1,250; the main gallery, 2,175; making a to tal of 7,225 scats. Hy placing chairs in thc aisles the total seating capacity will bc 10,000. The great parade which ?viii be given during the Reunion will probably take place on Saturday, -lune 2. and the decoration of Confederate graves at the beautiful Cave Hill Cemetery will talco place thc next day. There may bc some objection (<> the decoration taking place on Sunday, in which event the parado will probably bc moved up one day, occurring on Fri day, June 1, instead of Saturday, June 2, though this is hardly like ly. All the railroads in tho South have agreed upon a ono-ccnt-a-mile rate for the Reunion and many special trains will bring thc battle-scarred veterans vinto thc city. Gen/ John B. Gordon will bo herc, of course. He will bc in Louisville this week and will deliver his famous Ul REUNION. oil in Sj ii 11 . ol I '? >litica] ibles. . lecture. ' The Last Days of tl.- Con j fed -racy," in Library Hal!. Kriday evening. Many of thc Confederate chaplains i will be herc. Since thc lime when j they were tramping a ron ml with the soldiers they have "moved up a peg" i in the way of worldly position and dignity. Some of them are college presidents, or Bishops, or something of that sort, and now have plenty to eat ami respectable clothes to wear. Ann,ni.' those who have already signi j hid that they will be here is thc Kev. ; Hr. J. William .Jones, father of thc pastor of Broadway Baptist Church, ol'this city, ami the Kev. Dr. S. I. Keid, now of Arkansas, and others. Dr. Ueid was at Hernando, Miss., in ! the fal 1 nf 1804, nm! he tells this amusing story: "It was in the fall nf 1804, when j (Jen. Hood was transferring his troops ! fruin Georgia to Tennessee for the Nashville campaign, when the Aiiicri 1 can Bible Society had shipped many boxes ol' Billies und Testaments South for thc Confederates. They reached Memphis, hut were stopped by order of Secretary Stanton. By some means I the situation became known to some ! good old Presbyterians, ami they | smuggled through the* army lilies many of these boxes and shipped them io Hernando, Miss. One of them says: 'A good and noble work it was, too, notwithstanding they wer?; virtually stolen from thc Yankees, us Stanton's cruel orders would make it, ami wer?; given free as air to thc ragged Con fels." Ol' course Kentucky will he repre sented by more Veterans than any ot'm r Stat -, and the i resent political troubles will he i i ,, hume when the old con rade-, i i arms meet here to discuss the time when they were all "on thc same side of the fence'' when lhere was hut, one question up permost in their minds. While Kentucky was divided and never did secede from the Union and east her lot, with her sister Southern States, the Confederates who hailed from ''the dark -and bloody grouud" were as courageous aud as true as any men who had tho honor of wearing-thc grey, and who honored the grey by wearing it. They will all be as one man in welcoming their late comrades to the metropolis of the Stato in May, and those who como from South Caro lina and other States may come fully expecting to be treated "right royally fine." for in this no ono will bu dis appointed. Louis J. BRISTOW. Babe's Power on Ingersoll. Where a man of brains and kindly thought met a little ehild and was conquered by sweet babyhood and trusting faith is boat told by William Wordsworth Goodrich, an arohitcct of Baltimore. Ile never tires of telling thc story and his hearers never weary of listening. "lt was on thc 112th of January, 18US," ho said, "when I occupied a berth in a Pullman car coming from Chicago opposito that occupied by Robert G. Ingersoll, in the next lower birth to his was a woman and her babe. The young wife who was on her way to New York, had her berth made up early. She had pre pared thc baby for bcd, and as she sat on tho edge of the berth, the baby at her knees, she taught thc baby its evening prayer, 'Now I lay me down to sleep.' "Tho child lisped, the prayer as only a baby can. As thc words, 'I pray thc Lord my soul to take,' were uttered, who should be standing with folded arms in a very rcvercnt attitude in thc aisle beside the bowed form none other than Col. Ingersoll. "'God bless mamma, God bless papa, God bless everybody,' thc moth er spoke, and the baby lisped. "At the final 'Amen' Col. Ingersoll clasped the baby in his arms and kiss ed thc child on thc forehead reverent ly, saying, 'Godbless everybody.' By this time all ol' thc cur occupants were onlookers. The great Ingersoll held the wee little baby, cooing in his arms, and he was talking toit. When finally he laid thc child in ti:e berth, I saying,'Good uight, little oue; good night.' Ouick as a Hash the baby said. 'Dod bless oo. "Ingersoll's answer was, 'Yes, yes; God bless you.1 " Mrs. .1. K.

I s? ru a lot <>l seed to South Carolina last year and thc re sults were very satisfactory. I am from Colleton county, and naturally take great interest in the welfare of ali the Carolina fanner.*. Knowing the great benefit they can get out of the velvet hean, and being anxious to assist my fellow farmers, 1 have set aside a few bushels of velvet bean seed for distribution in .South Carolina. 1 enelo.se a notice herewith which I would be very pleased to have you print in your weekly edition. I seta price of 10 cents a quart on thc beans, which just covers postage and pack ing. I have no axe to grind or s?:cd to sell in asking you to publish this notice, but simply want to call the farmers' attention to tho great value of the velvet bean. Hoping you can cooperate in the work by publishing notice and that you will send copy of paper. I am Very truly KLINE O. VARS. Kort Meade, Kia., Keb. S. HIE (HtEAT VELVET KEAN. No plant of recent introduction has received so much favorable notice as the velvet bean, nor is there a plant so deserving of the earnest attention of thc southern farmers, lt belongs to thc legume family, and as a nitro gen gatherer easily stands at the head of the list. Thc Alabama Experiment Station tested it thoroughly and found that the vines from an nero contained 201 pounds (d' nitrogen, which, turned un der, would equal in fertilizing value an application of li,?SOO pouuds of cot tort seed meal. The same land-a puer, sandy loam - was planted in oats the year following and yielded 31 bushels nf oats, where as an adloining plot on which crab gras? had been allowed to grow and thou turned under only yielded eight bushels. Hundreds of farmers report equally satisfactory results on all kinds of crops following thc beans. In Flor ida the effects on wornout and poor soils have been simply marvelous. The bean will thrive on thc poorest soils of South Carolina, and for re storing the wornout cotton fields it is without a peer. For stock feed it is extremely valuable, giving three tons of hay per acre, or 1,500 pounds of shelled beans, equal to thc same quan ity of cotton seed meal in feeding value. By planting this crop as a ro tation, it will bo necessary to furnish the subsequent crops with potash and phosphoric acid only, and thus fer tilizer bills ?gn be cut down one-half. Every farmer should plant some, if only for experiment, this year. Any farmer of South Carolina can secure a quart of seed postpaid, with full in structions for growing, by sending a dime to Kline O. Varn, Fort Meade, F,tt A New Theory. A small boy in the mission Sunday schocl of Bishop Fallow's church propounded an entirely new theory of creation. "Who made man?" asked the teach er. "God," was thc reply. "And how did he make him?" "Out of dust, ma'am.'" "And who mode woman?" "God made her,too, ma'am." "How?" The small boy hesitated and then replied, cheerfully: "He caused a deep sleep to fall upon mau, and then took out his backbone and made the woman." A Suggestive Structure. Two gentlemen walking together, came by a stately new building. "What a magnificent structure!" said one. "Vcs," replied the other; "but I cannot bear to look at it often as I pass it." "That is strange; why not?" "Because it reminds me that the owner built it out of the blood, thc aches and groans of his fellow men - out of tho griefs of crying children, the woe of wailing women." "Gracious! What is tho owner-a money lender, or a pawnbroker, or something of thc kind?" "Oh, no: he i.s n dentist.' - Irate Customer-Those shoes I bought for my boy last week are worn out already, and 1 fouud a thick piece of pasteboard in the soles.

Distinctions of ticing Kicked The Arabs, ?lever horsemen as they are, are ijuite as liable to accident as I'jUglish grooms. Dut thc Arab likes to be kicked by a thoroughbred horse, and cannot endure to be put to any pain by an animal whose pedigree is at all defective. An Knglish surgeon had been setting the broken leg of an Arab, who complained more of thc accident that had befallen him than was thought becoming in one of his tribe; this the surgeon remarked to him, and his answer was truly charac teristic. "Do you think, doctor, I should have uttered a word of com plaint if my own highbred colt in a playful kick had broken both my legs, but to have a bone broken by a brute of a jackass is too bad, andi will com plain." - ^y-mtmmm. - A disappointed North Carolina editor thus takes his readers into his confidence: "Three weeks ago we had the good fortune to have oar lett leg cut off by a train on the Short Line road-running between here and the sawmill region.
