Preparations having been made to serve dinner at the rink at 1:30, they assembled, to; partake of the good things prepared by the mem bers of the W.R. of this city, and the comrades were united In pro nounclng jit the boat they have ever enjoyed. The eucceaa of this reunion has been largely due to the efforts of Dr. A. H.

Shaffer and his able as sistants. -1 After dinner the association ad-ourned to the opera house where the exercises were postponed on account of the noon train on the Wabash being an hour and a half late. When the train arrived It brought a large number to add to those already assembled. Dr. A.

a. THUR8DAY AFTERNOON. A few minutes after 3 o'clock Dr. A. II.

Bhaffer, president, called the association to order and1 announced selection by the Standard band after which he apologized for the absence of the quartet engaged to assist with the music and in its place announced a song by Miss Efiie Heslsn, who stepped forward and sang Auld Bang Syne. The Invocation by Rev. G. H. Rill touched the soldiers end aroused memories of heroic deeds.

The Faded Coat of Blue was an other touching song by Miss Effie Hessin. I I i -I Hon. H. B. Bayler was Introduced to welcome the 75th.

He referred to the many notable achievements of that regiment and assured them Testing the INDIANA, THURSDAT, OCTOBER that the men who fought with that brave commander, Gen. Sherman and! the men who stood by that noble martyr, Abiaham-Lincoln would always be welcomed at Huntington. In the name of the good people of our city he thrice bade them welcome. Colonel Robinson who was to re ply had missed the train and could not come until evening, so Com rade Uearcreiey was called upon and responded in a hearty manner for their cordial welcome and as sured our citizens that their efforts at entertaining were appreciated closing with a caution to the com rades to so live and act as to show the citizens of Huntington that their kindness was appreciated. Then some one of the old veter an arose and said that he belonged to the 75th and since the welcome had reference only to' that regl ment he was In favor of Including the 101 at also.

He was a-eured that they would get there, and was happy. Charles W. Watklns was called upon to welcome the 101st, which be did with great cordiality, reminding the people of the fact that it was nor. the generals who won the victories bat the private eol diers by their loyalty. He made this touching reference to the banner with an acorn for its emblem: i I saw It In ths eamp, I saw It la ths flight.

I saw it In the vletory. It waa at Ohlcamanga, and whenever or wherever it came up on the neld comrades would shout: Thank God. the 14th corps is coming 1 He pronounced a glowing eulogy upon Gen. Thomas andlclosed by saying, "Comrades yoa never will meet at a place in Indiana where you are not wel come." Capt Williams was Introduced as the Fighting Captain of the 101st In referring to the comrade who wanted the 101st included In the welcome be said that the men of the. 75th would not want to go to Heaven unless the 101st were there.

In the course of his talk he made the grand statement concerning patriotism: The time will come when bur beloved flag will wave from every private home and every school house in our land. I Miss Hessin sang- the 8tar Spangled Banner and invited all to join in the chorus, which they did. It was a pleasure to see the faces of old comrades light up as they sang with a will. Many letters of regret were then read and the association adjourned for supper at the a large crowd was entertained. Dr.

fhaffer and Col. C. E. Briant went to the 5:40 train to meet Col. Milton 8.

The result of Prof.

Collier's examination and test, reveals the fact, that, with but one exception, every brand tested contained either Ammonia or Alum, and a number both. Not one woman in ten thousand would use an Ammonia or Alum Baking Powder if she knew it Such Powders nof only undermine the health, but ammonia imparts a sallow of blotched complexion. Note. Ir.

His tribute to Gen James R. Slack was beautiful and touching. In his address he said TL la Si nntaA fane that fn ann- port of our government we do not rely upon the bayonet of a standing army but upon the love of loyal hearts." At the close of his speech three children of Mrs.

Henry Glelch sang a beautiful English song and when they were encored sang German melody. Their ages and their sweet little voices were quite a surprise to the soldiers. At this time Col. N. Walker was compelled to leave.

Mrs O. E. Briant took her husband's place on the program' and recited a beauti ful patriotic poem, Dr. Bhaffer read a letter from comrade John Blusser, in which he stated his regrets at not being able to attend and sent a large bouquet in his stead. Comrade Hiatt, the truthful man, responded to a loud call and relat ed some amusing anecdotes of his experience.

i Col. M. S. Robinson made a long. earnest speech containing many touching tributes to the dead and living heroes.

She was followed by a duet by Misses Mamie and Lizzie Black, "Erin Rhine." i on the Comrade B. M. Cobb was given three and three-quarter minutes for a speech.

The quartette then sang "Marching through Georgia," and the benediction was pronounced by Rev. O. B. Reed. FRIDAY MORNING.
