tion Quito III Governor Heard
Praises Valor of the Soldiers of the
South.
Now Orleans , May 20. The thir
teenth annual reunion of the United
Confederate Veterans was opened In
the great auditorium at thu fair
grounds. There were thousands of
veteran soldiers , humlrods of beautiful
women and above and around ou every
hand a prot'uslon of fluttering Hags
and waving streamers. There was
martial music without end and onthu-
Dlasm unbounded. Over the beauty
and success of the day there was but
a single shadow , and that promises to
disappear BOOH. This was the IlluoBa
of General Gordon , the commandcr-ln-
chief of the organization. Ho was not
well when ho left his hotel for the
auditorium and has not been In his
usual health for several days. Noth
ing but his grim lighting spirit carried
him through the day without somothlni ;
akin to a collapse. His condition is in
no manner serious , but it is possible
that ho may not be able to preside at
all the sessions at the auditorium be
tween now and Friday noon.
When * the hour for opening the
convention arrived the platform was
crowded with fair women and men
whoso names are household wordn
throughout the south. General Gor
don's entrance into the hall was an
ovation. Cheer after cheer rang
through the building as ho came rapid
ly down the aisle , loaning on the arm
of Adjutant General Mlcklo. Ho was
surrounded instantly by a group of
friends as he reached the rostrum
and for a tlmp was unable to reach his
chair. No sooner was ho seated than
a fair young woman , Miss Tarloton of
Waco , approached and , bonding down ,
kissed the general. Ho sprang quickly
to his feet to acknowledge the honor
with repeated bows.
General J. B , Lcvort , commander of
the Louisiana division of the Confed
erate Veterans , called the assembly to
order and introduced the chaplain ,
Rev. J. W , William Jones , who deliv
ered an eloquent Invocation. Then
came speeches of welcome to the vet
erans. After a few opening words of
welcome , Governor Heard said :
"Veterans , the outcome of the strug
gle that you carried on for four long
years against the most powerful forces
and armaments that the world has yet
seen In no manner or sense can ob
scure the glory and fame that you won
for Dixie's land. It Is not extravagant
to say that the 000,000 Confederates
confronted a coalition of America ,
Europe and Africa. "
At the conclusion of his address ,
General Gordon led to the front of the
platform Mrs. Stonewall Jackson , and
said : "It was my fortune , and I will
never cease to thank God that It was
my fortune , to follow , to know well ,
and to love Stonewall Jackson. Ho
is not hero , but the best half of him
is hero In the person of his wife.
Comrades , I present to you Mrs. Stone
wall Jackson. "
In the wild cheers that swept the
hall , the fair faced lady from Virginia
was made to know once more how
southern love remembers.
John H. Reagan , the solo surviving
member of the Davis cabinet , then
Bpoko from one portion of the rostrum.
After the speech the mobbing of Gen
eral Gordon was resumed with re
doubled energy. Ono old soldier , in
toxicated by his enthusiasm , and a
few Incidentals , sank on his knees be
fore the general and would have
hugged him had not the bystanders In
terfered.
