Mean e scores of bands and drum corps were leading delegations of recent / rrivals into the camp grounds. Crowd Enormous. The sessions of the reunion are being held in a huge tent in Monroe park. It looks like a circus tent .with thousands of seats in the am phitheatre and tier upon tier of the familiar circus benches rising all around. The tent was filled long before the opening number and finally the sides were raised and those outside were permitted to see even if they could not hear. Ovatio for Gen. Evans. The arrival of Gen. Clement A. Evans was 'the signal for the first ovation, which drowned out the ef forts of three brass bands, eacn playing a different air, but , when Mrs. Edwards signalled her choir to rise and face the audience, her slen der figure almost shrouded in a huge silk Confederate flag, there was a roar that outclassed even the greet ing to the commanding general. Calls for "Dixie." "Dixie!" wase the call ..from all over the huge tent, a band from Lit tle Rock answering the call and an other ear-splitting demonstration followed. Meanwhile the chairman, W. K. P. Wilson, was pounding vigorously for order. He started to talk and finally quiet was restored. The chairman -succeeded in mak ing his talk and then the demands for "Dixie" were complied with. Escorted by a score of Confederate generals in full uniform, herself wearing a major general's insignia, Mrs. Edwards took the stage. Sur rounded by her choir, the orchestras struck into the war hymn of thej Spth. Mrs. Edwards' clear soprano! voice filled the tent. When the song was over, there was another demon ''-stration. Miss .Vera Williams, one of Mobile's prettiest young women, recited an original poem and Gov. Coier of Alabama was introduced. The word had gone out that the governor would have some tart -things to say about the federal gov ernment, so he was greeted tumul tuously and given the closest atten-! tion. IJeff Davis' Granddaughter. One of the prettiest incidents of: the reunion took place after Gov. Coier's address. A slender young woman in black had been quietly escorted to the platform. When the a'plause greeting the governor had died out, Chairman Wilson said: "While not on the program, I want to 4,sk the convention to rise ad'greet the granddaughter of the only president of the Confederacy, Miss Lucy White Hayes." (Bashful 1.) The young woman was gently rged to the front.
