campment in Montgomery. The regi- ment IS making it's camp at Pickett Springs. where. for seven days, the soldiers of Southern Alabama will toll on the review ground, at parade and in regular army manouevers.
 The 1st regiment is well-known in this city. Two 9ears ago, in 1905. the regiment paid its first summer visit to the Capital City, and remained here a week. During this time the South ern Alabamians made number of friends in Montgomery who turned out yesterday to greet the regiments ad- vance guard, and who will be on hand today to give welcome to those others who will reach the city today.
 When the regiment visited Montgom- cry two years ago, 1t was commanded by the same diligent and efficient sol dier who Is today in command, Col. R. B. du Mont of Mobile. The com mander, especially, has hosts or friends in this city. who look upon him as soldier of exceptional ability and ex- cellent military judgment.
 The advance guard which came to the city yesterday morning at o'clock was made up of the following stan officers:
 Captain F. M. Maddox, Adjutant; Captain G. M Van Liew. Quartermas- ter; Captain A. E. White, Commissary; Captain w. E. Mickle, Jr., Inspector Rifle Practice; Captain Julius A. Smith, Ordnance Officer; Captain H. N. Cole man. Assistant Surgeon; Sergeant Ma jor Leon schwarz and Commissary Ser geant Leslie Young

Col. R. B. du Mont. commander, left Mobile last midnight. and will arrive in Montgomery at o'clock this morn ing. going thence direct to the camp.
 The advance guard which came to the city yesterday met with a disap- pointment during the day which will slightly delay their work. The two cars of stores which had been shipped from the Gulf City, with the expecta- ton of having them in Montgomery early yesterday morning. did not reach the city until last night. However. the detailed staf got to work at { o'clock this morning putting up and arranging the camp paraphernalia, and the word from the stan officers last evening was that everything would be in readiness by the time of the arrival of the first companies this morning.
 All Companies Arrive Today. On a special train which was to leave Mobile at o'clock this morning. which consists of about ten coaches and two baggages, will arrive the main body of the regiment. On this train will come the Mobile Rifles. Company M; the Mobile Cadets. Company A; Lo- max Rifles, Company B, and the Gulf City Guards. Company B. These four companies constitute the Mobile bat talion, and is under the command of Major J. D. Hagan.
 Upon the trip. the following com- panies will be taken up by the special: b, of Fort Deposit; c, of Brewton, and K. of Evergreen.
 Company c of Geneva will reach Montgomery on the regular Louisville and Nashville accommodation from the south at 10:35 a. m.
 The special Is expected in Montgom- cry about II o'clock, coming over the Louisville and Nashville Railroad.
 Company H, from Troy, and Company I of Enterprise, the Dothan company, will arrive in Montgomery about the same time, travelling via the Atlantic Coast Line. Company U. of Uniontown, will reach the city this afternoon about 6 o'clock. at which time. doubtless, all of the soldiers will he in camp and ready for work. Six hundred men and officers are expected to be in the encampment.
 Among the other arrivals yesterday were the. auartermastsr sergeants Of the various companies, each bringing with him cook.
 General Bibb Graves. Adjutnnt Gem eraI of the state. and General Barry [, Holt, Quartermaster General were on inc grounds all of yesterday. keep ing their quarters in the same locality used by them during the encampment of the cavalry. They will remain m camp throughout the week.

ALEXANDRA A HOUSEWIFE

To say tina Queen Alexandra figures
over household expenses and looks
studiously for ways to be economical,
oonjurcs a picture for the imagination
and is regarded as drollery. Yet
Queen Alexandra is one of the most
economical housekeepers in England.
Her tireless tact and practical econ
omy is most noticeable In the fact
that Windsor castle and buckingham
palace are kept i'll a better condition.
at the same time spending much less
in the time of Queen Victoria. King
Edward is A~leNandra's chief aid in re-
ducing the household expenses.
While known as a Shrewd housewife,
she Is. withal Il generous one who VIII

years her hand has been apparent I'm
checking the waste that went on in
Queen Victoria's time. BY removing
the rather unhealthy stuffiness that
once reigned in Windsor castle and in
stalling the bright. fresh. beautiful and
hygienic, Queen Alexandra has shown
herself the true artist and economist
that she is.
1t was at Balmoral-a rather stuffy
old place-that the queen made the
most changes. changing the old tartan
curtains that had always hung al the
windows for fresh. airy ones. dingy

ture etained was the pretty chintz OF

pink roses that hung at some of the
windows. This was designed by the
prince consort long ago and was hung
at the windows of the queens yacht
also. This Alexandra ordered put back

AT Windsor, the queen has her own
room lone in a soft rose color. paneled
with white, while :he oriental draper
les, which she is forever gathering,
are to be seen all through the living
rooms of the palace. Something Of the
anne idea prevails at Buckingham and
the queens own particular grand piano
is covered with a beautiful oriental
scarf
Extreme cleanliness is the order in
all the palaces. and, unlike Queen Vic
toria, she has ordered that all the pre-
serves. cakes and bonbons used in the
royal household shall be made in the
home kitchen. Plum puddings have
been dropped from the menu as they
do not agree with the king. The menu
Is invariably looked over and altered
by the queen. The . o'clock meal is
Amos as heavy a meal AS dinner Din
ner at Buckingham Is not served till

The queen is very kind To her SER

them, but she has introduced "A rigor-
