wAR-CLOTHEs BRIGADE.

Some time ago the Dispatch suggested
that those veterans OF ours who still
possess the uniforms which they wore
in the war should appear here In them in
the parade Of July %.
SO far as we have been able 10 ascertain
the idea Is generally approved. 1t Is
conceded that this generation OF men
and women would be greatly Interested
In seeing the uniforms Of the Confederacy.
The veterans themselves could not have
more suggestive reminder OF the past
than they would find in the jackets OF
gray and butternut which were so familiar
to them from 1861 to 1855.
Without a doubt. one or two hundred
men in war clothes would make great
feature OF the parade. All that is needed
to forward the undertaking is that some
OF our city veterans should constitute
themselves a committee Of arrangements
and notify others where the brigade"
will rendezvous. This done. we have no
doubt the chief marshals will assign the
brigade a place in line. The Dispatch
would suggest that Colonel Maury and
Major Stiles, both Of whom have hereto
fore paraded in the uniforms that they
wore during the war, should meet and
form an organization TO carry out the
plan suggested.
BY the way. letters are pouring In here
begging the chief marshal for mercys
sake TO make the line OF march a short
one. inasmuch as the parade will take
place i'm the middle OF the day of July
%. Resisting all entreaties to the con-
trary, Major n. V. Randolph. chief Of
staff OF the chief marshal, General Cor
don, has made the line OF march as short
as possible. and the entire route is over
level ground. The head Of the procession
Will arrive at Monroe Park almost by the
time that the rear guard gets into mo-
ton. Not only is the route OF march
short, smooth. and level one, but Nor
man Randolph is a man who may be de-
pended upon to order the procession 70
move at the appointed hour and minute.
He thinks it would be grossly unjust
to the organizations that are ready 20
move promptly to have to wait in a broil-
ing sun while tardy organizations creep
along to find their places in line.
Another thing: Thanks to the Sons Of
Veterans. barrels or tubs OF ice-water will
be placed along the line of march for the
exclusive use Of the men in the parade
And in case our city water should BE
muddy at that time. we feel sure the Sons
Will provide filtered river water or clear
water from the numerous big springs Of
Henrico and Chesterfield counties.
SO far as we know, nothing is being
done to establish wagcn-yards or camps
for the people Of the several counties
who will come here and spend a night OF
more in their own vehicles. our country
friends have shown little interest In the
matter. If they would like to have such
camps established and would write to the
Veterans Committee Of Arrangements or
other friends here no doubt plans could
be perfected which would be Of advantage
to many who mean TO come here on July
"a in their own wagons or carriages.

The Sunday edition. May 3lst. OF the
Richmond Dispatch was a particularly
attractive and interesting issue Of that ex-
cellent paper. IL was illustrated with
scenes representing the condition of Rich
mond at the close OF the war and the re-
markabc Improvements made since the
devastating fires OF evacuation-day swept
over H. II doubtless cost the Dispatch
some money 10 have these illustrations
executed. and it is to be congratulated for
the enterprise shown in this edition.

To the Editor Of the Dispatch:


In the preparations for the great re-
union there has been nothing said about
4 holiday by the business people OF the
city. We, the clerks OF the various stores,
expect friends, acquaintance. and rela-
tives to be here during the time. and
wish to help entertain them, as well as
take part in the ceremonies. As there
was a general holiday at the laying OF
the cornerstone of the Lee monument,
why should we not agitate the matter
and have all business suspended on July
ID when the cornerstone Of the Jefferson
Davis monument will be laid: or, shall
the stores be kept open and the impress
sion 20 forth that the generality of the
businessmen Of the city wish to make
all the money they can out OF the great
throng that will be here? Please give
this your attention, and oblige.
THE CLERKS.
1t Is thoroughly understood that Thurs
day, July %, will be observed as a gene
raj holiday by the people OF Richmond.
We don't think there will be any discus
sion of the matter. because there will be
no one to take the negative side Of the
proposition.

DEFECT IN COOKING.

The prime defect in American cook
ing is the use of refined white salt,
which should be used only at the ia
BILE for such as prefer an access of sea-
soning.
The secret of the savors in French
soups and vegetables is the use Of
"black" or gray" salt, which is coarse
any chemists, and will amply repay the
easily obtained in America, there is a
variety which will give a fascinating
result. and that is the sea-salt such as
is used in bathing. It can be had at
any chemists, and will amply repay the
small cost. 1t is used in moderation,
for one does not want the result to be
"salty." All seasoning must be added
with skillful hands, governed by wise
head, and always with the couscien-
tiousness that woman who loves her
work will give to the humblest kitchen
detail. Toujours fideie is good motto
for the kitchen, and whoever follows it
will have no mishaps of burning cake
or tasteless vegetables. 1t is all a case
of cause and effect,-and, may add, a
faithfully followed success must ensue.

A PRINCE AS Z PRIEST.

Prince Max of Saxony, who has re-
Gently taken up his abode in London
as Catholic priest at the Church of
st. Boniface, Union street, White
chapel, is the fourth son of Prince
George, Duke of Saxony, and nephew
of the king of Saxony. When he be-
came a priest, he formally renowned
all his rights to the throne to which
his father is heir. Prince Max is only
twenty-six years of age, and he quilted
the German army to enter monastery
a few years ago. His determination to
retire from the world and to enter the
priesthood are said to be due to an
unfortunate attachment he entertained
for Princess Fedora of Schleswig-Hol-
stein. By his modesty he has become
very popular among the poor in the
East End. His reply to the cheers
raised in his honor upon the occasion
of his first visit to the "Gesellenver-
EN-" or workingmen's club, attached
to the mission, was, II come amongst
you, not as a prince, but simply as a
priest. I am a worker myself, for, to
my mind, no honor is so great as that
of labor.

WHERE MEN FAIL AS LOVERS.
All Good in Deeds, but Most Fail in
the Handling of Words.

1t is a question with me-" writes
Lillian Bell, in October Ladies' Home
Journal, whether woman ever
knows all the joys of loye-making who
has one of the dumb, silent husbands
who doubtless adores her but is
able to express it only in deeds. It re-
quires an act of the will to remember
that his getting down town at seven
O'Clock every morning is all done for
you, when he hasn't been able to tell
you in words that he loves you. It is
hard to get letter telling about the
weather and how busy he is. when
the same amount of space saying that
he got to thinking about you yester-
day, when he saw girl on the street
who looked like you, only she didn't
carry herself SO we'll as you do, and
that he loves you, -by-would
have fairly made your heart turn over
