PROGRAM OF FESTIVITIES The second day’s festivities incidcni to the reunion here of the Grand Army of the Hazard Perry. The locality of Perry's de- cisive victory over Fngland’s fleet in Lake Erie is familiar ground to most Cincin- natians. Put-in-Bay teems with incidents of the famous conflict xwhich took place in that vicinity. Perry :became a national hero, and his tersei message to Gen. Harri- son at the end of the battle, “We have met the enemy, and they ere ours,” is a watch- word in our army and navy. Float 5 brings out the history of the Mex- ican war. The subject is the storming of Chapultepec, and represents the American soldiers scaling the steep wall of that strong fortress and military school, the West Point of Mexico. We have now come to the events of our own era, we may say, for among those who will march in the ranks of the Grand Army in September this conflict betwe2n the United States and Mexico from lips now growing old, lips that will all too soon be silenced forever, have for half a century recognized and prescribed the genuine Johann Hoff’s Malt Extract as the one true} tonic and blood maker which can always be relied upon. Dr. P..Gun- terman of Louisville, Ky., writes: “I have drank and prescribed Johann Hoff’s Malt Extract for forty years.” Dr. James C.

Justice Cox today denied an injunction and overruled a motion for the appoint- ment of a receiver in the case of Ormand H. Butler against Daniel H. Ferry, the broker. Butler claims to have a one-third interest in the brokerage concern as a silent pactner. In his bill he alleged that he feared fraud and desired to have the partnership dissolved and a receiver ap- peinted. He asked an injunction to restrain Ferry from checking out cerjain funds in benk. bus to the present day. The designs, which he has about completed, promise a beauti- ful and instructive display, and the im- mense floats already under construction fulfill the promise of the designs. Many of the thousands who view these moving pic- tures were actual participants in the thrill- ing events commemorated, and to such the spectacle will have an added interest. The first float represents the discovery of America, October 12, 1492. Columbus, sur- rounded by his comrades, has landed on the island of San Salvador and is taking pos- session of the new world in the name of his patrons, Ferdinand and Isabella of Spain. His figure appears against a growth of tropical plants. At his feet kneel the astonished natives, who regard these strange men as gods from another world. A little boat in the foreground is being beached. The second tableau represents the French and Indian war. The scene is Braddock's defeat, which occurred in July, 1775, near Fort Duquesne, in the vicinity of the pres- ent city of Pittsburg. George Washington leans over the wounded English officer, while hidden in the bushes lies the ambus- cade of the French and Indians, who in- flicted such deadly damage. The third float depicts a scene from the revolutionary war. It represents the winter quarters of the American troops at Valley Forge in 1777. A few soldiers hover about the camp fire, sentinels shiver in the freez- ing air behind the breastworks and Gen- eral Washington shows a map to General Lafayette, the two forming the principal group. Float No. 4 is the war of 1812, and rep- resents Perry’s victory on Lake Erie. It fs at the moment when he gives up the tired for the night, about 10 o'clock, Sep- tember 3, and witha lodded revolver vio- lently threatened the life of the colonel. The soldier was arnested; after trying to shoot the adjutant and causing much dis- order in camp. The court met for the trial of Kinney at 8 this morning. The regi- ment will leave for Lauderdale Springs on Thursday, possibly Wednesday.” It is taken for granted, by the War De- partment officials that the court had reach- ed no decision at the time General Breck- inridge’s dispatch was s€nt. 0+ The Concert fer the Soldiers. The plans for the concert to be given un- der the auspices of the ladies of Westmin- ster Church, in co-operation with the Pen- sion Office Ladies’ Relief Association, for ‘Wednesday evening, the 7th instant, at the Grand Opera House are matured, and give promise of a most successful affair. The program published in yesterday’s Star is an excellent one, including some of the best of our local talent, who have kindly volunteered their services. The Marine Band will give its assistance to the occas- ton, The cause—entertainment for the sol. diers passing through Washington—is one that assures a large attendance, and it is believed ‘that the cccasion will prove a financial success and a great help to the worthy cause for which it was projected.
