With President Roosevelt.

Secretary Moody at Oyster Bay will
discuss with the President a number OF
important matters. Secretary Moody
has several proposed reforms under con-
sideration. He desires to make radical
changes in Navy Department methods
While Secretary Moody and Attorney
General Knox are at oyster Bay the
question of permitting the Commercial
Pacific Cable Company to use the
soundings made by the naval vessel
Nero in 1899 will be determined. II is
proposed to lay the cable over the route
surveyed, and the soundings would be of
great value to the company.
The completion Of the cable and its
utilization can be shortened from eight
TO twelve months through the use @: the
Navy Department soundings In this
way the Government could save about
$500, 900 by the earlier completion OF the
cable and the reduction in tolls which
was pledged by Mr.. Mackay before his
death. 1; is believed the use OF the
soundings will be allowed.

THE BATTLE-SCARRED PIANO.

About thirty gentlemen who have long
ago passed the meridian line of life, and
on whose heads there is the gray of
many years, together with several hun
dred or more other persons went to
Memorial Hall last Sunday evening for
the presentation of piano to the Louis
lana Historical Association by Mrs. A.
Q. May, OF Jackson. Miss.
Apparently II was not much of piano.
and the average onlooker would not give
$50 for 1t, but the members of Fifth
Company, Washington Artillery, would
not take a kings ransom for II. because
when the bullets were whistling and the
shells were bursting over Jackson on
that July day in 1863. they played on
that instrument, and they sang the good
old songs which are heard no more and
which will not be heard again. They
made a joke of that fight and they sang
defiance at the enemy. They played till
the order came to fire, and then they
kept at it until the enemy had been
routed. and then they returned to their
music. They played and sang, these old
New Orleans boys. for as long as their
voices held, and then they bid sorrow
full goodbye to Jackson and the old
piano, and they did not see the iusiru
ment again until last night.
The piano was in the Cooper mansion.
the house of the mother of Mrs. May.
The house was set on fire to prevent its
occupation by the Federals. The boys
of the Fifth Company rushed in and
Fayed the piano. and took 1t to their
lines and kept 1t there for the music and
cheer which 1t gave them. They were
