INTEREST CENIERS
IN THREE PARADES
JAcksoNvILLE REUNION TO BE
MARKED ~ SPLENDID EN-
TERTA'NmENT FEATURES.

Jacksonville, Fla. April 25.-with
the near approach Of May 6, interest in
the oath annual reunion of the United
Confederate Veterans, centers around
the three parades, one each day of the |
reunion. 1t has been definitely decided |
that the first parade will be that Of the
maids and sponsors, and it will be CIV
en- on the afternoon of May 6. /
This parade will be confined to auto
mobiles and carriages, and all spon-
sors and maids of honor will be admit
ted to it. The Jacksonville Reunion
Association has decided that, IL pos
sible, the parade of maids and sponsors
will be the finest spectacle of the
kind ever seen in the southern states.
The route will be several miles long
and passes through the principal resi-
dence and business sections of the
city.
The parade of the second day, May
Z, will be of the Sons of Confederate
Veterans and local military organiza-
tions. 1t is the present plan for the
sons to march on foot, and the parade
will take in the business sections of
the city

On the morning of May g. the last
day of the reunion, the annual parade
of the Confederate Veterans will be
held. Jacksonville labors under dis
advantage in staging this parade that

tered, that of securing horses There
are very few available horses in Jack
sonville, and as a result it has been de
cided to make the parade combine

foot-marching. The local association
believes that it will be possible fo
the commanders and their staff OF
ficers to be provided with mounts bu
it is going to be difficult matter t,
secure a sufficient number even 70
that. However, a united effort is be
ing made to secure all the mounts pos
sible in Jacksonville and nearby town
in Florida and South Georgia.

A Good Shot.

A San Franciscan, who had been
hunting In the vicinity of Lake Tahoe
without bagging any game, came upon
mountaineer who was feeding a
Gagged wildcat he had caught the day
before.
How much will you take for that
beast?' he asked
The captor said IS, and the money
was paid over.
Now" said the Nimrod, "tie one
end of strong cord to that tree and
another to. the cats neck, and then
open the door of the cage"
This was finally accomplished and
the fierce animal stood straining at its
tether.
The sportsman, who was watching
the exercises from the interior of the
cabin, leveled his rifle across the win
dow sill, took careful aim and blazed
away. The wildcat gave joyful yell
and disappeared in the forest. The
bullet had cut the rope.

Islands Where Communication With

tervais-Tristan da Cunha.

Though scientific progress has made
1t possible to do a double journey be-
tween England and America in fort

which it takes years to communicate.
OFF the scottish coast are the
groups of islands known as the He
brides, Orkneys and Shetlands, OF
these the most isolated island Is st.
Kilda, some three miles long and two
miles broad. The inhabitants lead
lives of great loneliness. for 1t takes
a month to get to the next island, and
the sea often makes any communities

months.

In the Pacific has total population of
only 15S, while another little bit of the
British empire is Tanning island. This
is landing place for the Pacific sub
marine cable, and usually there are
about one hundred people in the place.
The loneliest of all parts of British
territory is the Island of Tristan Da
Cunha, in the South Atlantic, which is
also the smallest inhabited island in
the empire. 1t is 1900 miles from
land, has population of "a Scottish
