Military Pageant Closed
 Annual Reunion.
Thousands of Old Soldiers Stepped Feebly But Proudly Through the Streets of Montgomery.
 Officers Leave City.

To martial music of two brass bands thousands of old soldiers, members oi Alabama Division, United Confederate Veterans paraded the streets of Mont gomery yesterday morning and were re- viewed by Major General George F. liar rison, commanding, and members of his staff. Twenty thousand Montgomerians and visitors witnessed the parade and cheered the veterans.
 It was an inspiring spectacle, this gath ering of gray heroes, again marching under the stars and bars to the strains of Southern music.
 It is doubtful if such a mass of humani- ty has been seen in Montgomery before in great many years. Various esti- mates were made of the size of the crowd. the estimates running from 10000 to S5.OOO. Twenty thousand is a conservative esti- mate. Dexter Avenue was lined from the State capitol to Court Square. The sidewalks were practically impossible. Every available window was filled. Gal leries and even the tops of houses were crowded. The crowd pushed and jostled, but good nature prevailed.
 Some enterprising man got out sur plus stock of confetti. left over from the last Street Fair. Until the veterans came down the Avenue, the scene was one of the past three Montgomery carnivals.
 The parade itself was perhaps the longest ever seen in Montgomery. The marching line stretched from the middle of the first block on Dexter Avenue to the curbing at the capitol. The sight was brilliant, inspiring and pathetic. Be tween 1000 and 5000 veterans participated in the parade, and fully 1000 old soldiers cheered their comrades as they passed through the street
 Practically every business house and residence was more or less decorated. Confederate flags and an abundance of bunting could be seen everywhere. The torn up pavement of Dexter Avenue, had

been rapidly replaced and no trouble whatever was experienced on this score. Col. Washburn, Marshal

| SOAs W dSADuIAI 1AdA SAdAs The parade was in charge of Colonel B M. Washburn, chief marshal, his assist ants being Colonel E. Troup Randle ot Union Springs and H. c. Davidson oi Montgomery. Master B. NJ. WashbuTn Jr., acted as courier
 l The procession moved without a hitch The First Regiment Band of Mobile, the Montgomery Military Band and a drum and bugle corps from the Montgomery military companies, furnished lively music. The old men kept well closed up ir their column of twos and stepped with great vitality to the strains of the quick | steps. The horses pranced and the ban | ners waved forming a picturesques scene These age-bowed men marched in a ragged line, that had once beeh perfect; cork legs were evident. where sound ones formerly sent their owners to the charge; the famous rebel yell was cracked, the voices failing to execute the commands of the hearts, when the band played Dixie.
 Many old soldiers unable to participate watched the paraders. These men were too broken in health to attempt the long walk. Their voices helped the volume of every cheer, however, and the hat of every one of the old boys was doffed as their comrades passed by.
 Parade Was on Time.
 Every detail as arranged for the official program was carried out to the letter. Contrary to the usual parade custom the veterans moved off promptly. Before o'clock. the veterans began forming -on the corner of Madison Ave nue and Perry Streets. Many marched by camps. Others struggled in but all who were able to walk fell into line. A few minutes after-the appointed hour. 9:30 o'clock the parade moved off A platoon of police headed by Police Captain w. H. Taylor and composed of Mounted Patrolmen Graham, Taylor, Crossland, Mckee and Smith. led the pro- cession and cleared the streets of the people, who perversely stood right in the pathway of the parade.
 Chief Marshal B. NJ. Washburn, accom- panied by mounted aids followed the platoon of police.
 The First Regiment Band of Mobile, headed the procession proper. The liveliest of lively airs were played. The musicians were dressed in the regulation military uniform.
 After the musicians came General George P Harrison, handsomely mount ed and followed by his staff officers and the division standard.
 The first carriage in the parade con- tained Colonel Harvey Jones, Adiutant General, Mrs. Jones. Miss Annie Hohson of Greensboro, division sponsor and Miss Annie Wheeler of Lawrence County, maid of honor.
 In the wake of this carriage was a car riage containing General Joseph Wheeler, Major B. F. Weathers of Roanoke. Major William E. Wailes of Selma. the war time adjutant of General Wheeler, and Cap tain Benjamin IT. Screws of Montgomery
 Then came the old soldiers of the First Brigade. Although the brilliantly uni- formed starf was present the commander of the Brigade. General John w. A San- ford of Montgomery, was detained at his

An Army of Rat Catchers.

In the wine cellars at Limehouse in London are twenty miles of lanes, lined on either side by huge casks of wine. They are a paradise for rats, and the only way in which the pests are kept within reasonable limits as to numbers Is by employing a small army of 300 cats. These cats must catch rats or starve, and the result Is that they are probably the most skilled force of rat catchers in the world. As soon as a cat becomes old and lazy she is replaced by a young and active one, so that the morale of the force never suffers from bad example.

GEORGE wAsH1NeToN's QUEUE
It Hid a Luxuriant Suit of Straight

The Father of his Country concealed luxuriant suit of hair beneath his queue wig. Many now wish the old fash ion were in vogue, to conceal thinned hair or badness. Yet no one need have thin hair nor be bald. if he cure the dandruff that causes both. Dandrun can not be cured by securing the scalp, because it is germ disease. and the germ has to be killed. Newbro's Herpicide kills the dan druff germ-no other hair preparation will. Destroy the cause. you remove the ef- feet" The-es no cure for dandrufr but to kill the germ.
