The English people will no
doubt regret that Miss Roosevelt
is not to attend the coronation.
They were looking forward to
her visit as an opportunity
for counteracting the pre-Ger-
man impression created In this
country by the visit of Prince
Henry. Miss Roosevelt would un-
questionably have been made the
recipient of exceptional honors,
for the purpose of drawing the at
tention of the United States to
the very cordial friendship of
Great Britain. But, since the
young woman cannot go as a pri-
vate individual, the president has
concluded that it is best she should
not not go at all. Her disappoint-
ment will be keen, as will also be
that of her prospective hosts.
Still it is no doubt better that
she sh ould not go under the cir
cumstances. Americans would not
like to see the daughter of their
president figuring in the roll of q
'princess" in London.

PERSON ROLLS
GROWING LONGER.
Bills Rushed Through the Last
Congress
Increasing Them by $4,ooO,ooo, OF
Which Tennessee Will Get
Goodiy Share.

Washington, July 6.-During the last
hours of Congress, a time always ripe
for final and ofttimes successful grabs at
the treasury, a bill was rushed through,
by the terms of which the pension rolls
of the United States will be increased
about four million dollars. OF this
amount something like three or four
million dollars will be distributed IN
Tennessee and North Carolina.
The author of the bill was Senator
Pritchard, of North Carolina. 1t pro
vides for Pensioning deserters from the
Confederate army who joined the Fed
eral forces In order to come within the
provisions of the bill and get the bene-
fits of the same, these Confederate vete.
rams must have enlisted in the Federal
army prior to Jan. l, 1865.
Several years ago Pension Commls'
sioner H. Clay Evans decided that such
cases were not reasonable, and it is pre-
sumed that this bill was passed to cure
that ruling. 1t was claimed by the
friends of the bill that at the time the
war broke out many persons IN the
South really sympathized with tho
North, but were forced to join he Con
federate army. 1t is further insisted
that they deserted and came over to the
Federal forces, and that therefore, they
should be pensioDed.

VETS CELEBRATE
The FOURTH
Vast Throng Attends Cumberland
Park, Nashville.
Thousands Lend Their Support to
Movement to Erect Monument to
The Private Soldier.

The Fourth of July celebration of the
Frank Cheatham Bivouac at Cumber-
land Park was a success from every
standpoint of view That the cause of
erecting a monument to the private sol
der is one close to the hearts OF the peo-
rle of Nashville was evidenced by the
throng that visited the park and lent
their support to the movement.
The crowd was estimated from 5,OoO
to 5000, and in this assemblage was rep
resented all classes. A feeling of gen
era goodwill seemed to pervade the
atmosphere of the attractive place, and
the day is one that will live long as one
of the great fete days in the history OF
the city
The programme arranged by the com,
mittee of the Cheatham Bivouac could
not be improved upon. There were
many things to please the eye, delight
the fancy, and much to touch the tender
chords of the human breast. The exhi-
bition drill and the sham battle partlcl-
pated in by the survivors OF the
Southern Confederacy, suggested
thoughts of period that has long pass,
ed into memory, and the falter1ng step, OF
many of the veterans was reminder
that those who had been spared OF TINS
day would before many years join their
departed comrades. Nashville Amerl-
can.

american General and the leader OF the
Filipino revolution. Lieut.. VIM. F.
McKinlay, of the Ninth Cavalry, acted
as interpreter.
Aguinaldo was told that he was free
to go anywhere he pleased, and Gen.
Chaffee asked him il he had any COM
plant to make of American discourtesy
as harshness. Aguinaldo replied that
he had no such complaint to make. He
told Gen. Chaffee that he was going to
visit friends at his home in Cavite
Vieio, in Cavite Province, and inquired
what protection the American authori-
ties would afford him. He seemed to
be afraid to venture out. Gen. Chaffee
replied that Aguinado would get the
same protection as any other citizen.

Themselves Proud.
Large Crowd, Perfect Order, Good

The many Columbians who went to
Mt. Pleasant to assist the people of
that busy town in their celebration of
the 4th, returned delighted with their
trip. Mt. Pleasant fairly out-did her
self and the day was celebrated in
grand style.
Hundreds of strangers were present,
and with the many good people from
the country round about, the town
was alive with humanity.
Lovers of base ball found ample en-
tertainment in that line. but the chief
feature of the mornings program was
the flower parade.
Beautiful girls and stately matrons
in beautifully decorated traps, ph@tons,
carriages, etc, with many gallant
out-riders on prancing steed formed a
sight we'll worth going miles to see. A
splendid band furnished inspiring music
and no feature was forgotten which
would have added to the beauty of the
scene, or the pleasure of the occasion.
In the award of the general prizes,
Mrs. John Kuhn was given first prize
on her handsomely decorated double
phetoD.
Mrs. Luther Frierson received second
prize on her beautifully decorated We
hicle. There were number other
handsome turnouts that were awarded
prizes in their special class,
The flower parade was followed by a
drill and sham battle by Company X.
3rd Infantry, under Lieut.. Bathiany,.
Uncle Sans defenders went through
their evoutions with precision and en-
gagged in the battle with an earnestness
that was at times appalling.
In the afternoon when all had bee
satisfied by the bounteous provision OF
Mt. Peasants good housewives, the fine
stock was brought forward and prizes
awarded in the many and well filled
classes.
Then, as in the days of old, the people
gathered about the speakers stand ana
listened with attentive ears to patriotic
and eloquent addresses by Congressman
Padgett, Judge Walter Bearden, Major
w. j. Whitthorne, Mr.. Brien of Nash
vile and Mr.. j. II. Dining of Colum-
bia. The order of the day was per
feet. There was little drinking and no

MEETING OF
The BOARD.
Alderman Titcomb DIsapproyes OF
Saloon Cases Beng Dismissed.
A. d. Hood Refused Relief From a
Fine For Violation OF Early
Closing Law.

The Board of Mayor and Aldermen
met TIL ursday night in monthly session.

crusher established on the Knob and
good word being done.

ascertain the cost of a hook and ladder
truck and report back to the Board.
A vote of thanks was extended Co. h.
Bird Infantry for their assistance and
services at the Dobbins & Ewing fire.
The City Attorney was instructed to
prepare an ordinance regulating the
storage of explosives.
A. ID. Hood asked relief from fine
imposed recently in the city court for
violation of the 10 o'clock closing law.
The Board refused to remit the fine. In
this connection Alderman Titcomb adj
dressed the Board relative to the re-
cent dismissal of cases in the Circuit
Court against certain saloon keepers.
He stated that the action did not meet
with his approval at all. That the
Recorder had heard the evidence IN
these cases and had adjudged the
defendants guilty. THAI be was In
a better position than the board to Judge
whether or not punishment was merlted
and that he deserved the cooperation OF
the board ia his decisions. That II any
one had grievance at the Recorder S
voraicts he could prosecute the matter
through the courts. Mr.. Iltcomb's
rebuke to the Mayor and City Attor-
ney, and those aldermen who had au-
thorized the dismissal of these cases,
was allowed to go unanswered.
A petition was presented to the Board
stating that additional land had been
procured for tine colored graveyard and
requesting, in consideration OF a
certain part of the lands being set aside
as a potter's field, that the city pay part
of the cost of the lands.

Hats on in Church,

Time was when men wore their hats
in church, and Pepsy evidently consid-
cred it an unnecessary piece of strict.
ness to insist on the bare head in the
church. In his diary for November II,
1861, he had an entry: ITO church and
heard simple fellow upon the praise OF
church musique, and explaining. against
mems wearing their hats on in church. ="
On September following he went to
the Savoy, where "the minister do
with his hat off. / suppose 10 further
conformity with our church" Porba.
bly, it was about this date the custom Of
removing hats in church began.-Lon-
