Changes Are Secured.

1t seems apparent that the War De-
partment will fall into the susS"sti -
made by the Governor. He now writes
that he advises placing the Virginia
Volunteers with the Ninth Division
So that the infantry may have a reg
ular designated place as brigade
along with the troops Of North Car
lima and South Carolina II is pc
lieved the department will agree ~
this.
Further. it becomes likely that IN
tbe event Of war. the Richmond Light
Infantry Blues will he attached TO one
Of the regiments of this state. Tho
War Department. in its letter to the
Governor. says that separate compan
les and battalions have no place in
the army OF this country Whne the
Governor in his response called atten-
ton TO an apparent inconsistency Il
this position. seeing that two separate
battaiions of Massachusetts troops are
recognized as part of brigade IN tn'
tentative grouping OF divisions. II Il
not believed the Blues will be 81
recOg nized.
Aftcr the tactical divisions arc re-
vise,I. and become a fact. the next step
viii probably be to have them encamp
together in manoeuvres-
result of the departments plans
i likely TO be the Organization OF one
or more troops Of cavalry IN virginia
Each division must be complete III
itself-with infantry. cavalry. artiiie'!
engineers. signal corps. field hospitd'

in this part Of the country. the Ge

be used only for service outside Of the

the event of war il might be used IN

1t has been said in this connection
, that Virginia should not elect 10 ofhce

ney-General did. If Virginia is to
take this position she should nrst strip
the portraits from the walls of Lee
Camp. abandon the soldiers Home,
burn the Confederate Museum and then
array herself in sackcloth and sit in
ashes

ida, inquiry Is often made as to why
the name tortoise Is SO seldom applied
to the many varieties of marine chelo-
mans found on the borders OF the
Gulf of Mexico. It is true that tor
toise Is the correct name for all these
various species-both the land and the
marine species-as the name Is de-
rived from various French and Latin
words meaning twisted, crooked or
contorted, describing the crookedness
of the curious feet and head protrud'
ing from the tortoise she'll. HOW the
tortoise of early days became known
by the name of turtle Is explained by
the fact that certain species OF sea-
turtles show such great affection for
their mates, that the name OF turtle
(frpm turtle-dove celebrated for the
constancy of its affection) came 70
be applied to them. Later the name
turtle was applied to many species OF
the marine tortoises, with turkey
frequently used for the species found
in the West Indies.
Green Turtle the Favorite.
Among the private turtle ponds own
ed and operated by progressive Flor
ida farmers who possess many acres
of submerged land bordering famous
turtle streams, many interesting fear
lures await the study Of the northern
tourist. The green turtle Is the ia.
vorite, not only because Of its fame
in regard to green turtle soup" but
also for the delicacy Of its flesh for
various articles of diet. The tortoise
shell of commercial value Is also most
highly priced when secured from the
green turtle. with its delicate color
ings. Both the upper shell-the cara
pace. or carapax; and the lower she'll
the platron, are utilized for articles
and ornaments of commercial value.
The most common method Of prepar'
ing the shells for use is to soften
them by means of boiling. They are
then formed into various shapes, or
are fattened by being passed through
