From the Throue—Processtpa of the
Royal Party From Huoklpgbain to
Westminster a Gorgeous Pageant.
London, Feb. 11—The first parlia-
meat of the reigu of King EJdward VII
was opened this afternoon by the king
In person. His majesty was accompa
nied by Queen Alexandra, the Dnke of
York and Cornwall and the Duke of
Oouuanght and many others of tha
royal family.
Tfie last state ceremony of the kind
jeurred in 1801, when Queen Victoria
opened parliament, accompanied by the
prince consort, and since the -death of
the latter nothing approaching today's
pomp has been witnessed in connection
with Jhe opening of the legislature.
Not Since the wedding of the then
Prince of Wales and Princess Aleman-
(tra has the gorgeous state ooach used
today been seen in the streets of the
capital.
In this coach today the king and
queen and Princess Victoria rode from
‘Backiugham palace to the palace of
Westminster. The route of the royal
party, which lay-through the Mall, the
Horse Guards parade, Whitehall and
Parliament streets, was guarded by 6,000
soldiers. Thousauds of Londoners
pocked St. Jaraet park, bordered the
ronte of the procession and filled win
dows and roofs. The cortege was short
l hut spectacul ir. The royal coach, drawn
. b y eight famous cream-colored Hauo-
vemim, with postillions in red and gold
liveries and footmen leading tlje horses,
which were covered with morocco and
gilt, was preceded uud followed by Life
Guards in full uuitorm, with stiver
breastplates and red plumed helmets,
and a small escort of geutlem^n-at-
arms, in historic costumes, immediateljr
surrounded the vehicle.
Five c.irriuge- o? 'tiiti* containing uni
formed ofU 'iul' ami ladies of the house-
j. hold, each drawn by six horses with
* postillions and outrid'-rs, led the pro-
. session. Next came th massive state

Hriiliaut Scenes.
The diminutive chamber wis filled fit)
its capacity by the highest and noble*},
of the kingdom, the greater part of t&fe
floor being occupied by peeresses and
other la lies. Ambassador Joseph'
Choate and the other ambassadors oc
cupied a special enclosure behind tile
bench of the bishop. The whole eoetie
was brilliant in the extreme. Diamonds
flashed out of the folds of the block*
dresses of tiie ladies, while color WtU
added to the .ceue by the robes of the
peers and the state officials.
The rich uniforms ot the diploauttio
corps, the robes of the officers of itoto
ami-the military and natal dottbnas
formed a brilliant medley, wbioii grdd-
nally disappeared through the entrance
* of the respective houses.
The king and the robed procession Ad
vanced to the house of lords. As soon
as his majesty was enthroned, the lord
great chamberlain received the royal
command to summon the members of
the house of commons to hear the speech
from the throne.

THE HOUSE COMMENDED
For It« Patrlottom in What It Has Done
and 1« Attempting to Do for the Old
Soldier—Should cee that Their Wlah in
Carried Oat.
(Correspondence of The Ledger.)
Etta Jane, Feb. 12.—The liberal
appropriation made by the legisla
ture for the completion of Che Con
federate rolls is a fair guarantee that
the work will be accomplished if
those in charge of it will do their
duty. It is to be regretted-fibat so
much important time has been allow
ed to glide away that might have
been used to complete this work.
To ui It seems that some very poor
engineering or financiering has been
done in getting complete rolls of all
the men the State furnished. The
plan was suggested and adopted at a
meeting of the United Confederate
Veterans in the city of Columbia in
November, 1895, which, if it had
been carried out according to the
original^ plan, would have Iresulted
in getting an absolutely correct list
of the men we had in the army from
this State, together with the casual
ties in each case.
The plan was to send out at least
100 printed copies of the company
roila now on file in the adjutant gen-
eral’s pffice at Columbia to be distrib
uted dRioog the camps of U. C Vet
erans, And through them to the pri
vate soldiers in each company, and
have them to make any corrections
In the list of names of those that'
might be omitted. In columns
marked for that purpose insert when
and where he enlisted, whether he
was killed In battle, wounded,*died of
wounds or sickness, died in prison,
when and where, if known, when and
where discharged, and for what
cause, together with any other data
that might be of historical value in
the work. Opposite _eacj\ man's
name td.^Krid appear the figures' gTv-
~Jbg the page in the general hi si oxy
where a biographical sketch Of his
soldier life might be found, if any
were written.
In this way alone cun the work be
satisfactorily, fairly and completely
done. The survivor will gladly fur
nish any 4 information in his posses
sion to complete the work and
among the unlettered will IKe; work
get its best supporters .Take, for
instance, our old friend, Mr. Bryant
Fowler, of White Plains, and we
will guarantee that be can call the
name of every man who belonged to
his company-and tell what became of
him, and Mr. Fowler la an.- unedu-
cated man, too, and no exception to
the rale. He will do it from memory
alone. There are hundred* still Jiv
ing who can and will do fib* same.
If the rolls prepared ubder and by
the suggestion of the U. C. Veterans
at their meeting in .Columbia io No
vember, 1895, were ever printed they
were not distributed io accordance
with the terms of the resolution, for
your correspondent made several ef
forts to get the roll of his own com-,
pany, but failed. Tbe only blank b*
ever got bold of was of company A.
12th 8. C. Regiment, in which be
bad two brothers. never hear
of but four copies of his own oqm
roll being printed end be pevei
either of them.
If the present attempt of tb
lature to get e correct ret
troppe tbe State famished tl
federate army ie to prove ap
abortive as tbe preceding one,
pity the attempt was ever m<
better donate tbe money to
charitable institution then to
it away upon eucb an^fctat#^
We must commend one Itftoifttire
for its patriotism in whalrtoass dobs
end is attempting to do fok the old
soldier. Weonlyvotae the sentiment
of everyone who non tbe grey when
we say, “Weil dbfte, thou good and
faithful servants/^ Tbe onlj thing
remaining for them to dojs to see
that their wllb is carried our In good
faith. We have no criticism to make
of the actions of those who have had
the work In charge, fmt we must
confess snrprttfe that so much money
and time have been noneumedmad so
little accomplished. • -
C For eight years this work has been
po band and practically it isn’t
'gjtorted yefc, ■o far as its object is

Washington, Feb. 14 —la the senate
today, an amendment proposed by Mr.
Slump of Idaho to the >undry civil bill,
looking to the establishment of a sob
iliers’ home in Idaho, induced Mr. Hale
of Maine to call attention to the faol
that uio committee on appropriations
w.is being besieged constantly for more
and moro soldiers’ homes, although it is
nearly pj years since the close of the
civil war. The general belief was that
in 40 or 50 years tho demand for these
boint.i ought to be on the decline, and
he thought it would be necessary to
give sumo account to the country for
the proposed increase.
Mr. Pettigrew declared that the Uni
ted States was mantttactnring material
for soldiers’ homes every day. General
Mac Arthur’s report snowed that thero
were 10,000 more sick in the Philippines
than could be cared for properly.
Hr. Halo acceded to this statement,
and added that every man in the Phil
ippiues would boon the pension list in
live years.
