1,000 veterans,' bui three times
thatr,riumbe ' were there, besides
as m&riy niore! visitors who were
not .' Veterans. ' Alt the regular
trains and the special trains were
uncomfortably crowded, and peo
ple from air over the State were
; there in large1 numbers, many com
ing from the extreme eastern
counties.
' Although so many more attend-
: - 4 .1 .i Til

11 C L
fpw AYfiftntions ail were couuurm
Ubly provided for, and Ashe Ville
1 did herself proud" and rose equal
to the occasion in a manner that
could not have been surpassed, if
equalled, by any city in the State,
Not only were so many more
veterans present than at any pre
vious reunions, but this reunion
was honored with an unusual num:
ber of distinguished officers.
Chief among them were Gen. Ste
phen D, Lee, of Mississippi, and
Gen, W. E. Mickle, of Alabama,
the Commander-in-chief and the
Adjutant-General of the United
Confederate Veterans. There were
also Gen. C. Irvine Walker and
Gen. Carwile, of South Carolina,
Gen. Cullen Battle, of Alabama,
and ex-Secretary of the Navy
Hillary Herbert. AilJ of these
prominent Confederates made
short speeches, that were greatly
enjoyed. There were also present
some Cherokee Indians, who had
been Confederate soldiers,, and
thev attracted as mui'h attention
as any of the generals.
The uarade was the errand and
most attractive feature of the oc
casion. Just as it started ram
began to fall (the only shower
during the reunion) and continu
ed until shortlv after the parade
had ended. - It seemed such a pity
that the shower should have fallen
just during the time of the parade
The rain, however, did not damp
en the ardor (although it drench
ed the clothing) of the veterans,
who marched enthusiastically
through it an. xsut tne ram was
too much for the fine dresses of
the lovely sponsors, all of whom
beat a hasty retreat and sought
safe shelter, for "how could
sponsor sponse and hit er rainin'?"
The parade was witnessed by sev
eral thousand enthusiastic specta
tors, who filled both sides of the
streets through which the veter
ans marched. Gen. Stephen D
Lee rode at the head of the pro
cession and . was greeted with
cheers all along the line. When
some considerate citizen offered
him an umbrella he politely de
clined it, '"saying that "a-soldier
has no business with an umbrella."
Gen. Lee is a splendid horseback
rider and rode a large iron rray,
which seemed to "be proud of the
great general it carried. ' ;
After the parade many of the
veterans rode out to see Vander
bilt's magnificent estate, a laige
number of. vehicles having been
furnished free for hauling them.
Those who went will never forget
that ride Some who could not
ride walked out there, so eager
were they to see the magnificence
of Yanderbilt's earthly paradise.
Many old soldiers met at this
reunion who had not met since
the war, and these meetings were
quite pathetic as the long separ
ated comrades embraced each oth
er with the affection of brothers.
Several old flags were exhibit
ed and attracted much attention.
Among them was the battle-fla
of the thirty-ninth regiment that
. had been in 67 battles, and it was
carried in the parade by the color
bearer who had carried it in seven-
, teen battles. The flag of the
"Bethel" regiment also attracted
roucn attention.
At the business session all the
old Division and Brigade com
manders were unanimously re
elected, to-wit: Generals J. S.
Carr, P. C. Carlton, W. L. Lou
don, James I. Metts and James
M. Kay. A resolution of thanks
was adopted to the citizens of
Asheville for their hospitality and
to the railroad companies for .their
ow rates. :

are

east of Liao Yang, They are push

from Mukden,! saying that prepar

place are proceeding. This re

out in the Associated Press St,
Petersburg'dispatches.wonld mean
the abandonment of the whole of
southern Manchuiia and the wind

It was reported in St. Peters
burg at a late hour Monday night
that Kuropatkin's rear guard had !
been almost annihilated, and that
the maiu Russian army was in
danger of being surrounded.
Kuropatkin, inJiis report, makes
no mention of the abandonment of
200 guns at Liao Yang, a rumor to

Georgia Soldier Accidentally Killed.
Special lo Charlotte Observer.
Greensboro, Sept. 4. Private
Frank Lassiter, of Compauy L, of
the First Provisional Regiment of
Georgia Troops, from Amencus,
was run over by a train here at 3
o'clock this afternoon, and died at
5 o'clock. Lieutenant Fort and
Private C. A. Smith, of Company
L, and T. B. Shipp, of the. hospi
tal corps, were detailed to care for
the remains and left for Americus
with them tonight. ' The deceased
was 25 years old and unmarried.
The accident by which Lassiter
lost his life was distressing as
well as peculiar. The train he
was on contained the Georgia de
tachment of troops bound for
Manassas. It had been standing
at the station here for an hour and
was moving slowly northward
from the station to take a siding
for the' south-bound fast mail to
pass. Lassiter is said to have
been standing on the platform,
when the cars came uncoupled, the
jerk or jolt throwing hini off, and
the loose car fallowing ran over
him. He was terribly mangled
from his 'thighs downward, his
legs and feet beingliterally ground
into a pulp. His face and head
were badly cut, but not crashed.
He was placed on a cot, and the
regimental surgeon attended him,
but at once pronounced his case
hopeless. He was gasping for
breath, but was -semi-conscious,
and is said to have recognized
several of his comrades who bent
over and spoke to him. There
was an affectinsr scene when the
surgeon announced that he could
not live, and the regimental chap
lain, on the side of the track, with
the awed and subdued soldier
boys sobbing around, and a large
number of citizens attracted by
the catastrophe, stood with bared
heads, prayed fervently for the
dying soldier., Lassiter lived over
an hour after the train containing
his comrades pulled out, it being
held up under orders for nearly
an hour after the accident.
The--Manassas mauouvres began
at" midnight on Monday night,
when the "Blue" army was put
under way to attack the -''Brown"
army.

The Washington Union Station
is now beginning to slunv itself
above gronud, and some idea may
be gained of the tremendous mag
nitude of the structure. It is evi
dently going to be more than twice
as large as the Capitol, and will
cut a great segment of the north
eastern horizon. Huge blocks of
concrete fifty feet in "height and
not much less in thickness vir
tual iv solid masses of stone rise
j like gigantic temples, but they are
gradually getting into sh.ipe to
form the walls of the building and
piers for supporting floors and
roofs. It is estimated that not
more than a quarter as many men
are employed as Would be were it
not for the' economical concrete
mixing plants and the facility with
which the material is handled. At
first glance everything looks like
utter disorder, like wrecked build
ings and ruined towers and bas
tions. But week by week it ap
proaches something like symme--try.

; - In the completion ' of tlie hev
bridge across the Potomac, cost
ing approximately $750,000 and
oceupyiug three years .in' construc
tion, is the realization of one of
the fondest hopes of Washington-
iaus, the evolution into reality ofJ
a dream which has been recurrent
at intervals for many decades. As
the old Long Bridge has been for
many years the cause of shame
aud humiliation to Washington
the strong new viaduct is an ob
ject of pride. It is half a mile
long aud sits so high above the
river on piers so far apart; that it
will no longer be an embargo to
navigation or an obstruction to
water or ice in times of flood. In
stead . of creepius-
timorously
across ou the trembling stracture
that bore millions of soldiers to
victory and defeat during the Civil
War, passenger trains of this week
steamed boldly across without fear
of being precipitated into the
muddy waters beneath.
The Supreme court granted li
censes last week to 46 out of a
class of 53 applicants. Five ne
groes were among the applicams
and three were successful.
Judge George H. Brown having
been nominated for Supreme Court
