R. posts nn<i by various aux iliary: organizations of- the order. Tha reception will be held In Elk hall. A program of speeches and patriotic mu sic has been arranged.. Relative to pensions for all veteran*, Corporal Tanner said yesterday: i "Pensions for all soldiers who served ninety days In the Rebellion ragardless of their being Injured In the war or be coming disabled or infirm since the war are not possible at present. I have always been in favor of service pen sions, but I fear they are ungettabl-V _!•«• would, according to statistic*, cost the government $34,000,000 to give all, the surviving soldiers a service pen sion'of. $12 per month. I realize that at -present the finances of the United States are not such as would warrant this expenditure. Possibly when the financial conditions are a little better we shall take up this matter and force It* to ai conclusion. -President Roose velt has signified his willingness to aid the veterans In any reasonable manner ,he can. \ , ■ _■, No Recriminations Then ''Cordial to the last degree are the relations existing between the Confed erate - veterans . and the Grand Army members.- There never was the slight est i animosity existing between tho .fighters In the Civil War.

The soldiers were too > busy ..fighting during the war, and too busy making another start in life after ■the war to give time to Idle and use less .tongue wagging and recrimina tions.. .'.';■ . ;','To illustrate, let me tell of the royal ■ reception and elegant banquet given Ime In ; New; Orleans by members -of i the Confederate "Veterans' association. 'The, Confederates were about to open , their . annual reunion ' while I ' was In ; New :' Orleans. They Insisted a dozen 'times that I should stay over and ad dress the great general meeting of the soldiers ; of the south. I was given a most magnificent banquet by.

". , ; ■"..'•: No 'Joint Encampment '■h-"l do not look for the time to come i, when. the 1 Union. and Confederate vet- S erans will >. hold - a Joint encampment. '•There Is no, sentimental reason against .such an encampment. ' The^only reason 'lies < in the fact that the distance to be traveled j by -. the Confederate veterans to most of the Union encampments t would '• necessitate too great an ex | penditure of time and money. V : VThe southerners believe In holding an ■ encampment .' early .In • the spring and we, believe In a fall meeting. They have a mass convention and we have a I delegate convocation: It would be necessary | for all the governing laws of each body to be~ changed before a Joint encampment could be held. ; :,\"The ; treatment , of a Confederate soldier at a G. ■ A. R. encampment is little short of royal. ' The same may be said of a Union visitor to the Confed erate: gathering. Last September at : Denver ; there .were several Confed erates. ; One I remember Ip particular. He dressed In his faded gray uniform and (". visited -• all • the • headquarters. -Wherever he w£nt he was received with cheers. ■' He called on me In the Brown Palace hotel, and as. he walked through , the rotunda such a mighty shout went ■up that it was heard for blocks. After that it would seem that there Is little feeling but that of good will and broth erly, love existing in the hearts of the veterans of both sides." BURGLAR ENTERS TWO . HOMES ON INGRAHAM ST.

PHELPS AGAINST OLD-FASHIONED WAY 8«y« Reach Men With Directness. Cannot Hold a Woman's At. tentlon When It la Rivet. ' Ed on Rival* Hat "How a Preacher Chooses Ills Bub- Jects," was the topic chosen by Rev. Arthur 8. Fhelps at the Central Bap tist church last night. He said: "There Is a wonderful variety in preachtrs; there are loud preachers and soft preachers; profound preachers and simple preachers; preachers whose eloquence lifts you up to the skies, and preachers whose gentleness soothes you like a summer breeze; preachers who put you to sleep In the daytime, and preachers who keep you awake all night; preachers who make you re solve to reform your grammar, and preachers who make you determine to Improve your habits. Preachers are of all kinds, but every one of them is of frail human flesh and blood. - . . "The choice of a subject, and indeed the whole success In preaching, rests In the purpose. Archbishop Whatety told of a preacher who 'aimed at noth ing and hit It.' The preacher labors not for the salvation of the sermon, as Beecher said. Attempts (o produce a great sermon end In sensationalism, or worse. Stage lightning does no electro cution. Should Preach on Pew Topics "The minister's purpose is to achieve results. Let htm not be nfrald to rouse deep feeling. •Drummond says: 'Religion without emotion is religion without reflection.' Kmotlon is the father of motion. The minister will preach on the things that fill the minds of men. The evolutionary process la the method of the Almighty, and the great world movements are in his hands. "Let the burning questions of the pew kindle the pulpit. The questions of mar riage, divorce, business competition, strikes, changing views of religion, these are the things that are real to the people, and why should the pulpit be silent about them? "Use any tool that will do the work you have In hand. A golf player se lects his club according to the lie of the ball he wants to move from its posi tion toward the goal. "We hear warnings, every now and then, that preachers are entertaining the people Instead of saving their souls. But few preachers are in dan ger of being too entertaining.

There is as much ; LATEST HINTS OF FASHION I ON ATTIRE FOR SPRING ; 't "Al! the world" is in spring attire and the general use of light colorings is very noticeable. Light grays in mixed weavlngs are as predominant in i* women'* as in men's attire, but a touch of c«ntrast is usually Introduced in the trimmings of the suit, and the hat carries out the effect. Sevres blue and the various rose shades and leaf greens are the popular contrasts. Very narrow stripes in brown, blue or black combined with white are especially smart and will be very much used in linen cheviotfi later.

Neck Ruffs and Fichus All the fashionable shops make a great dis play of neck fixings. Ruffs and fichus of chiffon and maline are bought eagerly by mo dish women who know the value of these ac cessories in dressing up a plain gown or freshen ing; one that has seen some service.

PANORAMA NOW A RINK One* Gettysburg Battle Picture Was Depleted In the Structure on Main Street Los Angeles will have another skat- Ing rink Saturday night, when the opening of the Panorama will occur. The Panorama is located on Main street, between Third and Fourth, directly opposite the Belasco theater. It Is the only rink in the downtown dis trict. j Old residents of the city will recall the early days of the Panorama build- Ing, when the huge canvas depleting the battle of Gettysburg was displayed. Later It was used for a variety of pur poses, and two weeks ago the Immense structlon was turned over to a battal ion of carpenters and plumbers. The rink Is practically In readiness now for use, but the managers of the venture are taking no chances with a partially prepared floor, and during the rtst of the week a large sand papering machine driven by electrlcty will go over the vast skating area, which In said to be the largest In the city. The Panorama is splendidly venti lated, the roof .being fifty-five feet above the skating floor and Is artis tically decorated with a canopy of red, white and blue bunting. One of the features of the Panorama rink over which the management is putting forth enthustlastic arguments Is what is claimed to be the only scientifically correct circular floor west of Chicago, by means of which the skaters are al ways gliding with the grain of the maple flooring and doing away with all rough corners. Music for the Panorama will be fur nished by Frankenstein's orchestra and band. The sessions at the Panorama will Include morning, afternoon and evening skating and the rink will be open afternoon and evening on Sun days, s |n To brand a beer "Pure," but actual f|§ mJ purity- means to double the cost of the V-L P brewing.

ECHO WATERS Mrs. Alegrla Tells. Her Husband of , Hearing Strange Noises, and Immediately Afterward , She Disappears Echo park lake will probably be dragged today In a search for the body of Mrs. Marie Alegrla, who wandered away from her home, 413 Lake Shore avenue, a week ago. A peculiar circumstance connected with her disappearance was reported to the police last night. Shortly before she left her home, she >vhs singing with her husband 1 in the parlor. "Oh, Will," she suddenly exclaimed, "I hear such strange noises! It is like two voiqes in my ear. I wonder what is the matter with me. What are those voices that are calling me?" Her husband soothed her and petted her and finally told his wife to put the little boy to bed. He went lnto> another part of the house and when he entered the bed room his wife was gone. Some Intui tion, he said last night to the detec tives, made him fear that she had dis appeared, forever. Arouses the Neighbors He called her several times and at once roused all the neighbors. No trace of her* could be found and the disappearance was reported to the police. The husband reported to the police tha t he had positive proof that his wife never went far from the house. He said that he believed almost with out question that her body lies In the little lake and today the place will be dragged. Alegrla Is employed by the Sunset Telephone company and his wife be longed to the wealthy Guvar family of Santa Barbara. ; , Mrs. Ouvar arrived In Lot Angelet last night to aid in the search for Marie and she said most emphatically that she was sure the child wife was dead. . ' She Acted Queerly Neighbors stated last evening to the detectives working on the mysterious disappearance that they thought the woman slightly out of her mind for several weeks, and recalled that she acted queerly at times. ' Her husband is positive that the unfortunate woman drowned herself and sayi .he will spare' no expense until he li satisfied that the body of his wife does not Me in the lake, a stone's throw from the house.
