The annual anniversary of the
founding of the Fraternal Order of
Eagles will be celebrated in fitting
style on Tuesday next by the local
Aerie. This nnnual dance has always
been looked forward to with a great
deal of enjoyment by the people or
the town, who have always ventured
out generously in all sorts of weather
to lend their presence at the Eagle
ball. One of the good times of the
year is assured to all who attend, and
the Eagles, being the oldest fraternal
order in Cordova and the first to show
their faith in the town by purchasing
real estate for the purpose of building
a home here, should be given the
moral support of the people, by a big
turnout at their dance. The hall has
been most artistically decorated and
presents a very attractive appearance.
The national colors predominate and
are festooned in such a way as to
make a very pretty background for
the merry throng of dancers that will
attend this social affair.
The committee of arrangements
consists of E. F. Medley, Robert C.ott
schalk and (leorge Dooley, who have
left nothing undone for the pleasure
and comfort of their guests. To Mr.
Gottschalk is due the credit for the
taste displayed in the transformation
of the hall to a veritable beauty spot.

ARRANGING FOR
INAUGURAL
(Special to Dally Times.)
WASHINGTON, Feb 3. — A patri
otic and picturesque feature of the
ceremonies attending the second In
auguration of President Wilson and
Vice-President Marshall, March 4, will
he supplied by the rapidly thinning
ranks of the Grand Army of the Re
public. At former inaugurals these I
venerable veterans have marched In
the escorting division which accom
panied the president and vice-presi
dent from the White House to the
capitol, where the oath of office Is ad
ministered with ceremony preceding
the general parade.
Rocently, when the increasing
feebleness of the grim and gray old
boys in blue was called to the atten
tion of Inaugural Chairman Robert
N. Harper, he conferred with Colonel
John McKlroy and other representa
tive men of the G. A. R„ with the re
sult that the length of march of the
veterans Is to be greatly shortened in
what may he their last inaugural pro
cession. This will add an atmosphere
of pathos to the slowly moving pic
ture they will present while passing
the president's reviewing stand in
front of the White House, and the im
pulse will come to the beholders to
bare their heads before the passing
battle flags in their tatters of glory,
and that talisman of duty and service,
the little bronze button.
The veteran escorting division is
the outgrowth of an incident of the
first inauguration of President Ulysses
S. Grant, March 4, 1869, when a group
of his former fighting men who had
followed his fortunes from the wilder
ness to Appomattox, Insisted in march
ing behind the carriage of their chief
tain to the east capitol portico, where
he took the oath of office.
At the first Inauguration of Presi
dent Wilson his Immediate guard of
honor to the capitol was the crack and
noted Essex troop of Newark, N. J
He has not announced his selection
for this honorable service at the com
ing Inaugural.
