were no uniformed diplomats, no

wish of the bride and groom, carried
out to the letter and except for an
afternoon of gaiety among the young
folks the day and evening moved
along quietly and quickly.
The ceremony started at 6 o'clock
sharp and lasted but 15 minutes. The
reception was brief, the wedding sup

at 8 o'clock, the bride and groom
had left, the wedding guests had de

its normal appearance, interrupted
but a few hours.

Parade of Veterans.
Thousands of enthusiastic citizens
and visitors today loudly cheered sur
vivors of the Confederate army who
participated in their 24th annual pa
rade. While not so picturesque as
former parades, because only a few at
tempted to march, the spectacle fur
nished a thrilling sight to hundreds
who saw the heroes for the first time .
Veterans, maids and sponsors in
nearly 2,000 automobiles, took part
in the parade. All of the departmen
tal officers of the three divisions were
on horseback, as well as a detachment
of Forrest's Cavalry. Mounts could
not be obtained for a number of sur
vivors of this noted troop. They as
well as other veterans attempted the
strain of the pace set by those mount
ed and in automobiles. Rain fell just
before time for the parade to begin.
Participants and spectators were forc
ed to rush for shelter. The downfall
lasted only for a short while and
bright sunshine prevailed during the
greater part of the day. The weather
was extremely warm.
Papers with dispatches from Wash
ington and Mexico City in regard to
the situation were sold among the
spectators as the parade passed
through the. business section of the
city..
Hearing the cry of the newsboys,
many of the veterans took it up and
aving battle-scarred Confederate
flags, they shouted "On to Mexico."
There were numerous ambulance
calls during the progress of the pa
rade, but all cases were reported by
hospital authorities to be due to ex
haustion. General Bennett H. Young, Commander-in-Chief
, led the parade.
Fourteen brass bands were scattered
through the line of march. There
were nearly 2,000 gaily decorated au
tomobiles in the pageant.
The commander-in-chief was follow
ed by the trans-Mississippi Depart
ment composed of veterans from Tex
as, Arkansas, Missouri, Oklahoma and
Western States . Next came the army
of Virginia, consisting of sol
diers from Maryland, Virginia,
West Virginia, and Nxrth and
South Carolina . The army of Tennes
see was in third place. With veterans
from Alabama, Kentucky, Florida,
ueorgia, Mississippi and Tennesesee.

The return of a captured battle flag
to a delegation of Ohio Union veter
ans was one of the features of the
formal opening of the reunion Wed
nesday of. the 24th annual reunion of

with simple ceremonies to personal re
presentatives of Governor James D.
