MEMORIAL DAY. A tUaulirnl Day For Baaatlful Bar t lea- Haw It Waa llliitrnd. It would teem that even the elemen t( j lined in commemorating Memorial Day, and after yelling her lac and dropping a few lean npou the gray of our dead heroei, Ihe heavent wer lit up acd th tun in all it glory went befor aa a pilar of lire escorting the proceuion to the cemetery. In the morning tb cemetery wit crowded with tboso who remembered Ihe loved and lost by ttrewing their gravet with beau'iful flowert, and at they left the city of the dead it bloomed a garden of tweetett blotaomt. At 1 :30 o'click the Commercial Club band playeJ a number of aelectiont at the proceivion formed on the corner ol Second and Washington, at lollowt, with Capt. Bartell at officer of the day : Led by the band, the militia followed' then the G. A. K. and Son of Veterans ; the W. K. C. aud bringing np the rear were a large number of citixent In car riaget. Keaching the G. A. R. cemetery a male quartet tang a very pretty and ap propriate selection which tb occation cauted to be th tweeter and more tol einn. Hen. Vice Commander Aiken then read-the ritualistic tervice, which it beautiful and impressive, and at ill close the G. A. II, aud Sunt of Veterans deposited Sowers at the foot of the mon ument in memory ol Ihe fallen heroei of their various regiment. It ia always a very solemn service when the gray haired veteran!, w hose rankt are rapidly thinning, perform thil eervice io honor of their lout comrades. A thrill pasted through every breatt ai Private Bentz, a volunteer ol the late war, limped to the monument and dropped the token of love in memory ol thote to dear to many hearts, who have fallen t.s mem ber! of the Second Oregon Volunteer!, and coming nearer to our own heart tonei, Capt.

M jet every num ber in tb rankt ol Company D. ha en listed tioce oar brave boyi marched forth to real battle, and while thought ol our absent heroei filled the breatt, at the same time a feeling ol eatitfaction and trust at to our future prevadad all as they beheld the noble facet of those who are preparing to march forth to the firtt call that may be given. They ar a brave lot and made a splendid show ing. . Keturning to the city, the G. A. R., and militia marched to Fraternity hall, where the W. R. C. terved a line lunch to the old and young boys in blue, who, never missing the hard tack, thor ough' eujoyed Ihe spread. At 7:30 o'clock the G. A. R. and W. K. C. met at their hall and etcorted by the militia, nr arched to tb Methoiiet church, w here, after two beautiful selec tions by a quartet composed of Meisr. Landert, Norihup, Doaue and Lundell, a tcripture lesion by Rev. Rushing and prayer by Key. Wood, Rev. Poling de livered an address which want eloquent and able an effort at a Dallet audience baa listened to for tome time. He opened bi remark! by laying that hii lory ii on continued argument in lavor of the doctrine ol the equality ot man kind, and war, although a harsh teacher ol thil important doctrine, mutt be heeded ; we canuot tarn away. Review ing lb biatory of the wart from early day to th pretent war, the epeaker proved that all bad for their Incentive thil on end. Th Almighty desire that each nation mak the moat of itaelf by an uoselfltb policy, aud America' motto should be "America for tte world." HumauitarlanUin ihould be oar watch word. In. closing he laid American hearti ask not why we keep Memorial day, but do to with hearti full ol love and are glad of an opportunity to do to. "We feel tonight that the great heart of tb nation beat in gratitude to the Grand Army ol th Republic. At you near th muttering out time may your last hour be lull ol hope. And may God bless our boyi now on the field ol battle and restore them to ui toon." All joined in tinging America at the close ol the add rets, and Memorial day ended with its ttraint ringing in the eari ol the congregation. Oda VIw of Ihe Sltnntlon Thk Ciikomci.k tins never to tar been guilty ol taking a pessimistic view ol matter in general, but, variety being the "spice ol Ue," we may be excused il ! we deviate lor once at least, and look at I the river question on the dark tide, thus j giving ourselves tufiicient reason for be- j ing thankful that the weather still re-1 maim cool and hoping that it may to, continue. While quite a number ol experienced! river men predict that there will be no unusual high water this year, there ia a probability, or we may say possibility, ol th river reaching the 't4 mark. We have, io far, had no summer weather. The moon changea lor warmer weather next Thursday. On Tuesday the river at The Dalle will be 31 leet.

Should the weather continue cool, ol court there will not be much danger of the river reaching the above figure; bat in the meantime let n cease "kick In i" at the weather, the weather prophet, etc., when we realise that thil i perbapi our only salvation from a flood. LIVELY FIRE DRILL. Five Streams Plaj oo M'aaco Warehonaa -Treasure . That Dallet people are Interested in their fir department (and tbey have every reason to be) waa proven Thursday evening by the number who witnessed the test dri'.l at the warehouse. One might have thought Dewey had reached the city lore enough, (and it certainly was dewey for a time) judging from tbe procession which followed the depart ment np Second street. "The "procesh" was headed by onr new band, which furnished marching music for the following companies: Mt. Hood, Jackson, Kst End, Colom bia, South Side aud Hook and Ladder. While each company pitde a good show ing, we must mention the new S.nth Side No. 3. which turned out in lull tc", only three members being absent, one being ill and two in Portland. If aptiearance stands for anything tl.e east hill it tafe in cate of fire. Marching at once to the Wt'C) ware house, the "boy" went to work in earnest, inspired by the strains of ti e band, and soon five streams ol wat.r were playing on tho building at lively as if the w hole thing wat iu a blaze. The drill was for the pnrpose ot testing the pressure ilnce the new plugs and li tre preseure has been pot In. The engine was stationed at Skibbee' corner, and with 2500 leet ol hose in use and five streams two hose attached atthe corner ol Third and Taylor, two at Second and Taylor, and one at Second and Monroe it was determined that eighty-four pcandi pressur could be obtained. This il a to 12 quote you prices on LAWNS. days that we hare been warning you & MAYS. in Plain Figures. large per cent over what we could depend on before the new tyttem wa pat in, end Est Ender teel a great deal aaler than formerly. The test being made, they proceeded to the engine, where occurred a teet ia which the steamer wa tried against the pressure obtained Irom tbe plug. Thi time Engineer Brown wat outdone and the ping came out ahead. The East End hat always seemed to be the place to be dreaded on account o' fire, as has a'.to that distr'ct oa Second street between Court and Union. Wa anderttand that in case of a fire in the latter section eight stream at least, and probably eleven, could be turned on at once, so that that section it not to be dreaded as a fire trap so much as it ha alway been. The board of delegates are much en couraged over the outlook for a new alarm system, chemxal engine, etc., and we expect to hear encouraging new from them toon. Let us assist them in every manner possible, for their efforts are only for our benefit, their service being given gratis. We owe much to our fire department ; let us keep this ever in mind.
