 Committees Will Re-

IMMENSE CROWD EXPECTED

It was stated yesterday that when Camp Hardee meets this afternoon at 3 o'clock in the Tomlinson building every one or the committees on arrangements for the reunion will be able to report ready. Probably the hardest work fell on the committee to secure lodgings for the vet erans and visitors. and it is understood that it has succeeded even beyond its hopes.
 This meeting is to be the last before the annual state reunion, which commences on next Wednesday at noon and lasts two days. It is estimated that there will be nearly 25oo veterans in line for the pa- rade on Thursday morning, and that there will be 25,O00 other visitors in the city.
 United Efforts.
 Every member of Camp Hardee and the members of Pelham Chapter, Daughters of the Confederacy, and also the Sons of Confederate Veterans, have united in making arrangements and planning to make this the greatest reunion ever held, and it is believed that they will be suc- cessful. Both the Daughters and Sons have appointed large committees to aid in the entire programme, and they have been working with the Camp Hardee commit tees.
 At the same time that Camp Hardee Is meeting this afternoon there will be meeting of Camp Bedford Forrest in Woodlawn and several important matters will be attended to at that time. This camp proposes to enter the parade Thurs day on horseback, and they have provided for a number of other veterans to join them.
