Gettysburg. Pa., July 3.—A hand
ful of men in grey re-enacted today
_the charge of Pickett across the field
of Gettysburg. Up the slope of'Cem-
vitery Ridge, where death kept step
•with them in ’63, 150 veterans of the
Virginia regiments of that immortal
brigade, made their parade. Un

bloody angle, where tlieTNilladelphla.
brigade stood that da>. was g hand
ful In blue scarcely larger, waiting to
meet the on-slaught of peace. There
were no flashing sabres, no behhing
.guns, only eyes that dimmed fast and
kindly faces behind the stonewall
that marks the angle. At the end.
in place o? wounds or prison or death
■were handshakes, 'speedies and*
mingling cheers.
**<'unfed-* Charge “Yanks.”
The veterans In grey man lied for : across the field,
a quarter of a mile over the ground
that they traversed during the
charge. They came up the slope fn
column of fours, irregularly, but res
ponsive to jhe commands of Major W.
W. Bentley, of the 24th Virginia, one
of the new officers of either Pick-
ott’s or the Philadelphia brigade*
present. - Ahead of them marched a
band and well down the column ?.ss
a faded Confederate flag, its red field
pierced with many holes, its cross
bars dim. and Its shaft colored with
thfc sweat of many a man who died
that it might fly high In the las*
desperate effort to pierce the Un'c:»
line*. Its progress was slow and
painful, for the timothy in the field
was high and its ploughed surface >
was not easy for world-weary feet
Up to the very edge of the stone wad
covered now with tangled - vln>»s
1 aded by trees and peaceful as a
•summer laife, they marched in iho
hot sun* while the ban! played
‘'Dixie.” They stoed fur ha»f an
hour while their comrr.d*'* in blue
peei^d ae,*osa-.i ♦K-'tn
Flags vie in P ? "*•*.
The blue line formed benind the
walla. overhead floa*ed n faded
standard of the second srKtty. corps.
Behind them were the statues of jthe
Philadelphia brigade and the 4th U.
8. A. battery, where Gen Armistead
died.
At the men In grey formed In a
long line facing the wall, the Stars
and Bars and the flag of the second
corps were crossed in amity: the
Stars and Stripes was unfurled and
the crowd that came to watch burst
into a cheer. Representative J.
Hampton Moore, of Pennsylvania,
made a long speech and Major Bent-
Jley answered him on behalf of t the
South. The veterans in grey were
given a medal provided by John
Wauamaker. They crowded over the
stone wall, rfhook hands and the
charge was over. There was many
a picturesque figure In the line that
came up the slope. W. H. Turpin,
of the 53rd Virginia, appeared in the
uniform he wore on the day of the
charge. His feet were bound in
t loth, he had an army blanket strap
ped to his back and he calmly
smoaked a long stemmed corn-cob
pipe. .a
When Pickett Charged.
There v ere' thirteen regiments in
Pickett's division that day iij ’63, and
I the histories say #at 5,000 men
Every field
officer was killed or wounded, ex-
cept one lieutenant colonel, and two-
thirds of the line officers met the
same fate. Of the 5,000 who charg
ed. only about 2,000 returned to the
Confederate position. The Philadel
phia brigade numbered about 1,2»»0
men and lost 453 iu killed and
wounded.
“Governor’s Day" in the big tent
was a great success. The enclosure
wj-i crowded with thousands of cheer*
ing veterans. Love of country was
the keynote of the speeches. Present
was the Congressional committee of
twenty-one Representatives and ni
Senators headed by Vice Pr
Marshall and Speaker Champ Xlark
Home for Veterans
One practical suggestion came
from the meeting. Govj»fr.or Cox. ir.
the course of his addi/ss, urged ihat
the National Soldiers’ Home, ar
Johnson City. TetvlL, be turned over
to the Confederates for use as a
home for the/veterans who fought
under the Southern flag.
The aud^nce voiced its approval
by tremendous applause.
Vice/President Marshall was the?
first speaker. In hia speech he said.
. ^‘This occasion wipes out the las*
of the Mason .and Dixon line.' As
'Bob’ Taylor once said, ’there is now
no difference between the North and
the South except cold bread ahd hot
biscuit.”
Champ Clark Makes Hit.

with the audience. He commended
