I General Reynolds, with two corps OF
! the Union army, was but a few miles
| away TO the east and Fastening to-
! ward Gettysburg. From the opposite
: direction came Longstreet and Hill
/ with their forces. Three hours before
noon the greatest battle ever fought
on the western hemisphere was in
! progress.
The battle had proceeded not more
than an hour before General Reynolds,
one of the ablest and brevest Of the
Northern leaders lay dead on the field
with a sharpshooter's bullet in his
| brain. But the battle continued with
unabated fury. Both sides were great
~ REINFORCED, and the battle line ex-
tended north of the town from Sem
mary Ridge TO the bank OF Rock creek,
which flowed a mile and q half to the
south of Gettysburg. The carnage was
appalling. Finally, about the middle
OF the afternoon, Gen. Carl Schurz,
who succeeded General Reynolds in
command retreated toward Cemetery
Hill, just west of Gettysburg, leaving
nearly half of his men dead or wound
ed on the field. In passing through the
town, the Confederates pursued and
captured a large number of the re-
ro~iuder- The LIFT wing now unable
to hold its position, owing to the re-
back, and it, too, took refuge on Gene
terry Hill. The first days fight was
over.
The FederaIs had lost 10, 900 men and
were disorganiZed and discouraged.
Had this been known to the Confeder-
ates, they might have pursued and
captured a large part of the Union
army.
Between three and four o'clock in
the afternoon, however, General Han
cock arrived. His presence inspired
confidence and renewed hope in the
ranks of the Federals. Meade reached
the scene late at night, and chose to
make the field the place Of a general
engagement. Lee had come to the (
same decision and was calling all his I
legions to come with all possible speed |
to Gettysburg.
Everyone realized that the decisive !
battle Of the Civil war was in progress. !
The people of the North and South !
waited with breathless eagerness for |
its outcome.

About the middle of 1863 the hopes

could be secured from the nations of

ed that every veteran who expects to
attend the celebration provide himself
with an identification card or record
card giving his name, age. the resi-

cards can be obtained from Gen. E. NJ.

Many are under the erroneous i'm
preston that the government fur

states do this for their own veterans,
Florida does not.
Arrangements have been made for

Drainage and Reclamation.

: Secretary of the Interior Lane has
submitted a report to congress recon-
mending enactment of a law author
izing the drainage and reclamation
by the United States of public swamp
and overlooked lands in any state or
territories where lands of that char
acter are situated.
While it is designed primarily for
the reclamation of public lands the
measure authorizes the inclusion in
the drainage projects, under certain
conditions, of state or private swamp
land contiguous thereto or located in
the same drainage basin.
The measure is comprehensive. and
is somewhat analogous to the recla-
nation act, passed in 1902. for the ir-
rigation Of arid lands, including, how
ever, a number of improvements sug-
gested by experience in the admins
tration of that act. The measure If
enacted, will be a notable step in the
reclamation of public lands and the
establishment Of homes and farms
upon areas now uninhabitable and
worthless.

today with Representative Under

obtain their aid to secure the passage
of the Fletcher bill to suspend the re
organization of the customs service for
six months. Mr.. Underwood seems
unchanged from his attitude of yes
terday, when he declared himself in
favor OF allowing the reorganization
plan to go into effect without inter
ruption. He said that if the six
month stay was granted different in
terests from all section of the country
would take the matter up with the
president and the treasury department,
and bring about a situation of practi-
cal chaos before they believed the gen.
eral plan of reorganization was a good
thing, but that there may be some
minor inequalities which can soon be
re-adjusted. Prospects at present
point to the carrying out of the re-
organization as far Florida is con-
cerned which means that all the col
