The speakers' rostrum, on the north side of the monument, was handsomely decorated with shields, coats and afms and large brass eagles. All the hotels, club houses and other buildings facing the circle were decorated with flags and bunt ing. Rev. D. R. Lucas, past chaplin-in-cbief of the G. A. R., opened the exercises with an impressive invoca tion. Then came an address by the presiding officer, Major General Lew Wallace, Major G. V. Menzies, on be haK of the board of control, present ed the monument to the state for whom it was formally accepted by Governor Winfield T. Durbin.
