1t is the earnest desire of the Asso-
citation of Patriotic Societies that the
merchants and other employes of
members of the military permit their
participation in the parade. The Sa-
vannah Wholesale Grocers' Associa-
ton has taken the matter up, and
the following letter has been sent out:
Gentlemen; This morning we have
been requested by letter from Gen.
w. ". Gordon, president of the AS
ISOLATION Of Patriotic Societies, asking
that the members of this association
close up from p. m. until D. m. on
Nov. IA so that their employees may
participate in the ceremonies incident
to the refinement of the remains of
Gen. Greene. This request has been
made for several reasons, we presume.
First to show affection for the men,
DRY of the patriotic general, Greene;
second, TO make as imposing a parade
as possible, as there will be many
visitors from other states, and we de-
sire that Savannah may be strongly
represented in paying this last mark of
respect to the memory of one so dis
tinguished. Please acquiesce."
The letter is signed for the Whole
sale Grocers' Association by Secretary
E. V Petit
1t is Gen. Gordon's purpose to make

OWNERS MUST MOVE 1T.
Decision Of the War Department as to
the Hyqiea Hotel.

WASHINGTON, june 14.-The War De-
partment has decided, in connection with
the order for the removal OF the Hygiea
Hotel and certain other buildings from
the Fort Monroe military reservation,
that the persons who put up the buildings
under license, must remove them at their
own cost. These buildings are, besides
the Hygeia Hotel, the Phoebus store and
bar room, the Kimberly shop and Adams
Express Office.
The owners of the Hygeia Hotel offered
to dispose OF the building to the govern.
ment for $l75,O0O, contemplating the
removal by the government. Colonel
Frank q. Smith, president of the army
board convened for the purpose, trans
mitted this offer to the War Department.
The subject was referred to Judge Advocate
General Davis, who rendered an opinion,
reciting the joint resolution of June 25,
1868, requiring buildings erected upon the
Fort Monroe reservation under license
from the United States to be at once re-
moved, lat the expense of the respective
owhers whenever the Secretary of War
shall deem such removal necessary and
no claim for damages therefor shall be
made upon the government of the United
States"
On this opinion the formal order for the
removal has been made.

in his tribe. By his cunning and his Won
derful speed he had evaded hunters and
dogs and traps for several years. He
knew almost everything so far as rabbit
lore extends, but the present occasion
demanded something more than ordinary.
To him the rabbits all turned for counsel.
He felt his responsibility and thought
hard, though he said nothing.
Wednesday turned out to be a warm
day. If it should be equally warm Thurs
day there would be dry, bare spots on the
sunny side of haystacks and fences. The
hens would soon find them, for they were
as eager to get a breath of air from the
fields in spring as you and I. The ques-
ton was if they would find them in time
for Easter. The patriarch figured 1t out
that his Easter eggs would have TO be laid
on Saturday at the latest, and so the new
nests would have 10 be made not later
than Friday. 1t was plain that this would
require special oi5e-.
The patriarch al .rith his head down
between his front paws. looking hard at
the ground. He had gotten as far as the
special order" in his plans, and was
sticking there very fast when he hap
pened to think of an old red rooster up at
the barn, almost, or quite as old as him
self. The patriarch had, indeed, once

given him a friendly warning about very
sly fox who had his eye on this identical
barnyard, and, as a result OF the warn
ing. the whole chicken family had roasted
high until the fox, with mingled hunger
and disgust, had moved out of the neigh
borhood. Why should not this red rooster
be willing now to do good turn for the
rabbits? He should at least have the
chance.
Thursday proved even warmer than
Wednesday had been. In the afternoon
the patriarch went cautiously up along
the south side of the hedge toward the
barnyard. When he was near enough to
see he sat down in the sun, hoping to
catch the eye of his friend. By good luck
he had not long 10 wait. The old rooster
soon perched himself on the top rail and
gave a lusty crow. The patriarch thought
the growing was meant as a salute to him,
but he was evidently mistaken. Not I'M
til the patriarch stood up on his hind feet
and motioned with his right ear did
Chanticleer seem to see him. Even then

other. At last he recognized the patri-
arch, and tipping himself off the fence he
strutted down to where the venerable rab-
bit sat

Easter come on the Goth? And hadn't
every rabbit kept his own score by nib
bling notches on the bark of his favorite
date tree? Besides all that, anyone could
take a walk up and down the street in
the town and tell by all the Easter cards
In the shop windows. 1t was cold enough
and snowy enough for midwinter, but by
all the signs and the calendar, too, it was
the middle of the week before Easter.
Perhaps you may think that it mattered
very little to the rabbits whether they
had colored eggs for the children or not
But it did matter a great deal. The chill
dren expected colored eggs, and not to
find them was almost as bad as missing
Santa Claus at Christmas. For many
years the story about the rabbits had been
told. 1t had come to be a legend. No
matter how true it was; no matter if the
rabbits did nothing more than just borrow
the eggs and color them, the children
believed the story, and ought to have
the eggs; so the rabbits thought The
very pictures in the store windows were

of reputation TO the rabbits, and perhaps
the loss of the legend to the children.
Something must be done and done at once.
What should it be?
One rabbit. as it happened, was older

the snowy nog from the goat or bring the
egg and boil it for him.
Every morning when the Princess went
out to the royal stable she found the sur
geon waiting for her, and they used to
tell over very few loving words.
This all happened in an enchanted time,
when eggs had long, slender arms and
legs outside of their shells. and when the
quaint little silver bucket became alive
as soon as ever the creamy nog entered
it. So it was quite to be expected that
while the surgeon made love to the Prin-
cess Mr.. Egg should make eyes at Miss
Nog in the bucket
But, alas, The egg and the nog were
most cruelty torn apart every day. The
nog was borne at once to the King, who
drank it quickly down, while the egg was
broken and broiIed.
Easter morning came. The earth was
very beautiful. There were birds and
blossoms all about, and soft breezes from
the south brought spick doors. The Prin-
cess and surgeon. forgot to count the
shining moments and stood hand in hand
for a much longer time than usual
When at last they parted the little Prin-
cess cried out in great fear. The Egg. in
an effort to kiss the snowy forehead of
the Nog. had tumbled into the silver
bucket and broken his silly crown.
There was no mending it, Even the
Kings surgeon couldn't separate the
creamy heart of the Egg from the creamy
heart Of the Nog. He tore his hair for a
minute. then fell upon his knees.
Have no fear. beloved Princess" he
said. "all shall be we'll"
Then he cast away the pearly shell of
the Egg and carried the silver bucket to
the castle. where he beat the Egg and the

sifted a few grains of sugar into it and
added delicate portion of rum, Of which

which the handsome young surgeon held
high above his bead as he knelt before
the King.

grleved to notice that your strength has
been failing of late. As one who is re-
sponsible to the court for your health,
have earnestly sought for ife-giying

longer eat the Egg of the snowy hen and
drink the Nog of the mountain goat each
by itself. but together. Thus will your
Majesty gain double strength
The old King tasted the draught very
daintily at first, then drank it greedily.
He was so pleased with the taste that he
could hardly wait for the next morning
to come, when he could drink of it again.
And he felt so much stronger that he at
once summoned his Prime Minister and
commanded that the betrothal of the
Princess to the royal surgeon should be
proclaimed.
So a little later on the happy young
people were married. After the Fairy
Queen had taken back the snowy hen and
the mountain goat, so that the crusty old
King had to die. the two young people
reigned over the gay little kingdom.
And every Easter morning the whole
court drank of a potion that was mixed
by the royal hands. And what do you
think the pretty Queen called this dell
cate potion?
Why, eggEog, to be sure.

patriarch's back. After all, now, the dear
children should have Easter eggs.
How will you color them, Bunny"
asked the rooster.
Bunny's front left paw went up in de-
spair. The dread that there would be no
eggs at all had made him forget utterly
about the coloring, even though that was
the most interesting part of it all. There
could be no fun in finding white eggs.
The children could find them. and that was
Easter morning. The patriarch's head was
a whirl In another minute he would have
tainted but the rooster said something
about paint.
Paint" stammered the patriarch, in
despair. Don't you know that a rabbit
cannot possibly color an egg as it should
be in less than two whole days? You
are going to make the nests on Friday.
and the eggs will be laid on Saturday. We
are too late, after all. Our reputation IS
