Triplett, the former having served
in the Union and the latter in the
Confederate army, exhibited a flag
that had been carried by the former
at the 29th Indiana infantry through
two years of fighting with the
army of the Cumberland. The old
ensign was much tattered by many
storms of shot and shell and the old
veterans who exhibited it also
showed evidence of rugged exper
iences. They stood there clasping
each other's hands and testifying
their devotion to the flag that makes
us free.
Then came the oration of W. Iv.
Guerin, jr., which was listened to
attentively from start to finish and

There was a brilliant display of
of fireworks in the -veiling, the
i main illumination being on the vn
icaut block on the east side of Wall
street between Ohio and Minnesota,
i At the Ii. M. store, at the dance
pavilion, nt the Anne residence
' and a few other places there were
interesting fireworks displayed.
The barbecue was served in the
evening. Though the roasting
was not n perfect success in all re
spects many found it very satis
factory. Quite a company came up from
Haystack country, among them be

it is uxected to have the mail route
changed to this hue and then there
will be regular night and dnytngtM,
The PniU?y Post, skiug of the
movement for a direct mail route
between Demi and Shauiko, figures
it out this way;
"lly this route n Portland Mon
day morning (sqier will reach lieud
o o'clock Ttteiulay morning. The
distance from Demi to Silver Lake
1-185 mile, and the J'ortlaud mail
should reach the latter place about
midnight Tuesday night. This
would give us n days drive through
Summer latkc and deliver the Port
land mail here Wednesday after
noon, o to lit hours ahead of the
present schedule.
"Silver Lake in time is bound to
get its mail from licnd rather than
from UrincvUlciut.. a measure of
economy. What wc should have is
a through route from Shauiko to
Madeline several times a week.
This in time will be established."

Madras, Oregon, July 3- Every
one down here is in favor of the
pro)oscd chaugu in mail and stage
and I am sure that if enough pres
sure is brotigh to IxMtr, with the co
ojienitiou of everyone along the
line, wc can get the route.
I have heard some talk about the
department not being in favor of
sending two mails out over the
same route, that is from Shauiko as
far as Heisler's station, but that
can easily Iks obviated by the estab
lishment of an office at Heisler's.
In fact I have asked the keeper nt
Heisler and he is wilting to apply
for ntt office, and that will Rive us
n direct shoot from I leisters to
