BLUE AND GRAY WILL GATHER Oil THE SITE OF CHiCKAMAUGUA BATTLEFIELD

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn., March 27. Taking Chicka maugua as the high water mark in the fighting around Chattanooga, and examining the strength of the forces without any relation to section it appears that there were a total of 457 organizations In that battle divided as follows: Federals, 188; Confederates. 269. The Federal organizations contained in the aggregate more men, however, than the Confederate organizations. However, there is a controversy on this point that will do no good to reopen. In numbers it may be said that the forces were about tbe same, but in equipment the Federals were far better supplied than their antagonists. The losses in killed, wounded and missing at the battle of Chickamaugua were in round numbers 33,000, the Federals loss being some 800 in excess of the Confederate. The contending forces came from practically the same states that appear in the roster of the battle of Chattanooga. That is to say, they were from the following states; Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgie, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carorun at the Globe theater In New York City, when its "catchy" numbers took the town by storm. "The Rose Maid" opens with a gay dance, switches to a series of haunting vocal melodies and from time to time between the laughable' comedy scenes, there are Introduced waltzes, two-steps and gallops until the observer is at a loss to say which of the attractive numbers is his favorite. Henrietta Croasman. In these days of theatrical juggling, when companies are hurriedly organized and sent on the road by unscrupulous managers, and consequently giving bad performances, it is reassuring to know of the coming visit of Henrietta Crosman, who will bring her newest comedy, "The Real Thing," to the Gennett on Saturday, April 5. Miss Crossman's players, and the entire scenic investure will be brought to this city intack, just as it was seen in New York where the play ran for four months at the Maxine Elliott theater. The sterling qualities of th performers supporting Miss Crosman need only be known to assure the public of an artistic and satisfying evening's entertainment. , Sarah Bernhardt. When the Spanish Armada lay In Thames threatening to destroy England body and soul, Elizabeth and her court anxiously awaited news of the I impending battle at Plymouth. The long night of corrow and suspense Is past at last and the news of the ruin of the Spanish fleet is followed by a wild gaiety and jubilation. At the time of this scene in "Queen Elizabeth" Robert Devereux. Earl of Essex, is the acknowledged favorite of the Queen and the pampered pet of her court. A new Lord Lieutenant is to be appointed to Ireland and Essex obtains the coveted position. The scene shows the favorite's departure for Ireland. Bent on Essex's downfall, the Earl of Nottingham accuses him of treason and deceit and when the Queen subsequently learns of his clandestine love for the Countess she orders his arrest and conviction. In the present scene, torn between her emotions, her wounded pride battles with her real desire to spare him, she yields to the jealous subtleties of her ministers and her own vanquished vanity and sings Essex's death warrant. From the day of Lord Essex's execution, every hour brought Queen Elizabeth near the grave. The ghosts of the happy minutes of the past, when she lived in Essex's smiles would steal into her memory and leer at the futility of her repentance. The gaity and laughter of the palace were succeeded by the sombre silence of a thing worse than dath hopelessness until at last the broken heart and the weeping soul found peace in the final rest. This wonderful production will be shown in its colossal gigantic entirety in four acts at the Lyric Theater, Thursday and Friday. The Palace The Palace has been successful in pleasing large patronage thus far during the current flood season and have shown a change of program each day regardless of the fact that no tlms were to be had from out of the city. Starting today the usual Mutual run will be shown and for today the program includes, "The City Feller" a Majestic comedy-drama, "The Heart of A Child," a Thanhaused drama, and "Her Dreams of Yesterday." Murrette. Today at the Murrette three reels of first class pictures will be shown. Starting next Monday, Richmond in moving pictures will be shown. The management of the above theater is just in receipt of a letter from the Progress Motion Picture company of Chicago, advising that the pictures made of Richmond recently, developed finely, and that same will be ready to display next week starting Monday.

Una, South Carolina, Texas and Virginia. The Southern States and Missouri had 285 different organizations in the battle of Chattanooga, two months after the Chickamaugua massacre. Of this number 256 were Confederates and 29 Federals. The Confederate organizations came from the following southern states: Alabama, 48; Arkansas, 13; Florida, 7; Georgia, 52; Kentucky, 7; Louisiana, 11; Mississippi. 24; Missouri, 2; North Carolina, 2; South Carolina ( 16; Tennessee, 54; Virginia, 7. Tbe Union organizations from the south were as follows: Kentucky, 11; Missouri, 17; Tennessee, 1. In addition to these organizations from the south, the Union forces were supplied as follows: Illinois, 54 organizations; Indiana, 39; Iowa, 11; Massachusetts, 1; Michigan, 9; Kansas," 1; Minnesota, 3; New Jersey, 1; New York, 17; Ohio 73; Pennsylvania, 12; West Virginia 1 ; Wisconsin, 14. There were 11 organizations of United States regulars and 2 organizations of C. S. regulars in this engagement. The foregoing statistics show how widespread the interest ought to be in the battlefields of Chlckamauga and Chattanooga. The reunion here May 27-29 is expected to bring people from at least half the states of the union, attracted hither by the fact that their men contended against each other on these sanguinary fields. All authorities agree that the percentage of loss at Chickamaugua exceeded the percentage of any other battle of history, American and foreign. Gen. John B. Gordon, one of the most gifted and accurate survivors of the struggle, after examining statistics from all great battlefields, wrote in his reminiscences of the war that Chickamaugua exceeded them all. An American battlefield, as he says that has the highest percentage of loss in the history of battles, ought to be better understood by the American people. In fact, it ought to be a shrine at which all who respect American valor should worship.

Turtle Soup every Satur day all day at Ed Muey's, 20 South 6th street. 27-2t Tells ofl IfifMp Dr. Mora Bulla returned to Richmond last night from a trip to Dayton made via automobile. Most of the automobiles that made the trip to the stricken city yesterday followed circuitous routes in order to avoid washouts in the roadways, but Dr. Bulla followed the Dayton and Eaton turnpike all the way, with the exception of a short strip just east of Richmond near the Sycamore valley school house where he was forced to turn north and take to the right-of-way of the traction company. No difficulties of consequence were met with and the party reached West Dayton in comparatively quick time. "We got down into the city as far as Euclid avenue," said Dr. Bulla to the Palladium last night, "and this was several blocks west of the river, though as a matter of fact everything is river there now and for a distance of three miles east from the flood line in West Dayton there is nothing but water. I met and talked with Dr. Swisher, a relative of mine who is an active member of the Dayton relief committee. I was informed by Dr. Swisher that the committee had no evidence of great loss of life, at least insofar as could be determined from West Dayton. Twelve dead bodies were all that the committee had record of up to 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon, though of course what has occurred on the east side I do not know. However, Dr. Swisher seemed to believe that stories of great loss of life as reported in Richmond and elsewhere over the country are exaggerated. In fact Dr. Swisher surprised me by placing the estimate at twenty-five. What will be revealed when the water recedes suficiently to get into East Dayton is of course speculation. Dr. Lane, health officer of West Dayton, was of the same opinion as Dr. Swisher with regard to the loss of life. "The relief work is progressing well and boats are bringing refugees from the east side as fast as possible. So far as the residents of West Dayton are concerned there appeared to be little suffering and Dr. Lane, the health officer of West Dayton, told me that there was no shortage of food supplies at present."

TO INVESTIGATE THE COST LIVING V - Convention of Academy of Political and Social Science.

APRIL 4TH AND 5TH Prominent Men From Every State Have Accepted Invitations. (National News Association) Philadelphia, March 27. The high-cost-of-llving, that scourge which has been eating the vitals of society since clam shells first came into use as a standard medium of barter, has been chosen for dissection by the learned savants who go to make up the roster of the American Academy of Political and Society Science, which convenes its seventeenth annual convention here on the 4th and 5th of April. Investigators from all parts of the United States representing every branch of science have accepted invitations to be present at the inquest of this troublesome social fxture. Most of these, it was announced today, had prepared lengthy addresses on the subject which they would submit to the fellow delegates for approval. Each of the six sessions of the convention had been given power to one particular phase of the general subject.

Reports of Departments at Purdue

LAFAYETTE. Ind., March 27. During the year the Purdue publicity station published a grand total of 645300 bulletins, circulars, newspaper bulletins and reports. The total pages numbered 21,386,400. The mailing list has grown to Immense proportions and now contains 44,340 names, principally of farmers in the state. Xine years ago the mailing list contained less than 10.000 names. This comparison may well be applied to show the growth of the station's activity and usefulness to the state at large. The mailing list for the pist nine years has increased from year to year as follows: 1903-1904, 9,724; 1904-1905. 11.726; 1905-1906. 15.192; 1906-1907, 16,208; 1907-1908; 27.920; 1908-1909, 30.902; 1909-1910. 34.249; 1910-1911. 36.357; 1911-1912. 44.530. The station has for a number of years felt tLe need of more land on which to carry on experiment and this need has been partially met by the appropriation by the general assembly of 1913 for the purchase of additional farm land. The report of the agricultural extension department shows a surprising volume of work done by that department and some startling statistics are presented. Farmer's shot courses during the year attracted a total attendance of 10,225 people, an average of 569 at each course. Educational trains attracted 23,446 people, the total number of trains being 6ix. Purdue's county fair exhibit was seen by 362.000 people last year. The Purdue exhibit car or. the New York Central lines was visited by 59.753 people. In addition to this the extension department operated the seed laboratory in conjunction with the United States government, carried on numerous horticultural demonstrations in different sections of the state and conducted an extensive campaign of newspaper publicity. In the animal husbandry department there was throughout the year a continuance of important live stock feeding experiments ' including cattle, swine and sheep. A carload of livestock was furnished to the extension department for judging work at district short courses. Judging contests were conducted for boys and an exhibit was prepared for county fairs. The department assisted various live stock associations in their annual meetings. The greatest need Is for barns and laboratories. In the poultry division much valuable work has been done, this including experiment which Of HICKS' CAPUT. IN A LITTLE WATER Removes the cause, whether from eoia, gnpp, or nervousness.

In the extermination of weeds a new material was used In killing the wild garlic. The weed pest is one of the most serious that the farmer encounters and this department is hard at work seeking a remedy. Experiments are in progress which will in all probability result in valuable information being obtained

Regarding mushroom culture in Indiana. In the dairy department which is shortly to have a splendid new home of its own due to the munificence of the late W. C. Smith, the work during the year has been unusually extensive. Dairy field work has been carried on with vigor throughout the state and tests or breeders of dairy stock have been of much value to dairy husbandry. Dairy meetings have been held anw visits made to creameries. The dairy show at tbe state fair was an attractive and interesting one. Tests of milk and cream have been one branch of the department's work. The new dairy extension movement is well under way, the sum of 113.000 having been raised tor the education of the dairy farmer under the direction of the dairy and extension department? of Purdue university.
