The Leota Howard Dramatic Co. will open in Tonawama on Wednesday, June 5 instead of Monday. Ticket sale now on at the opera house. Owing to the recent rains the Leota Howard Co. cannot reach Burns in time to open their week engagement until Wednesday, June 5. The roads have been put in bad condition, hence the delay. The opening bill will be "The Power of Truth" a comedy drama in four acts, the scene being laid in Utah and deals with Mormon ism. This is a very popular play and has met universal praise wherever it has been put on by this company. The excellent re ports from other places respect ing this company assures the play goers of this city a week of pleasant entertainment and they will find the house well filled for each performance throughout their engagement here. A. S. Swain and son Albert are up from the ranch. The Boy Scouts made a very fine showing in the parade last Thursday and aro a credit to Burns in every respect These young men are the pride of their homes and the drilling they re ceive is such as will develop a robust and healthy constitution, and make them manly in every respect. Let the good work go on. On Wednesday Judge Davis moved his family and household , goods into his own house located on Main Street. The house has been entirely redecorated and fitted up with electric lights and cito water, and tho beautiful grass lawn, which surrounds it, makes a homo which anyone j would be proud of, and proves that Vale can have as attractive looking residences as any city in the country.

Bend Bui- THE MEMORIAL DAY EXERCISES. (Continued from pngo 1) Hansen. Firing Squad. Tonnwninu Band. Members of tho G. A. H. Spanish War Vetoranfl. Bums Firemen Boy Scouts. Flower Girls. Citizens. Carriages. As the parade was started tin dor th command of Commnndor Welker, thoTonawama Band filled tho nir with martial music, whilo passing down main street and as tho line of march got undor way it presented a picturesquo effect and impressed many with the appropriate manner in which the loyal citizens of Burns demon strated their reverence for tho defenders of tho flag, both living and dead. Burns has never be foru been so enthused with the spirit of devotion to this sacred cause, and tho spectacular sight of nil combined, mndo everyone feel that tho cause for which so many fell, and the country in which we dwell, is still dear to our hearts, and cherished by young and old alike. Tho scene was beautiful and impressive in extreme, and as each year passes, let us hope it will bo bigger and better as it should. When the cemetery wa3 reach ed, tho drums were muflleU and the parade slowed down to the step of customary regulation, and passed into the grounds, where tho graves were surround ed by citizens and little girls, who proccded to distinguish the graves of tho fallen heroes and beloved ones. Tho ceremonies hero wero opened by Cnpt A. W. Gowan, followed by a prayer by Com mander Welker. Next Capt. A. W. Gowan, delivered n very impressive tribute to the dead and his remarks wero both in spiring and instructive of tho the sacred occasion and loyalty to our country. Commander Welker next delivered n patriotic reading to the war veterans and those present, nnd was in turn followed by Rev. Dr. Babbidgo who lead in prayer for the fallen dead and the preservation of peace and our country's union. The firing squad then snluted the dead with tho customary three volleys, which was followed by the Nationnl Hymn played by the Tonawama Band and closed with "Taps" for tho dead by Comrade Struck, the veteran trumpeter. The day in nil, was fittingly observed nnd most be moro so than has been the custom. It is both right and loyal for nil to observe this occasion in the most sacred manner, and let us hopo that the example thus set before us will be kept in mind nnd in years to come held in observance with tho day especially set aside for commemorating the dead, that we as a Nation might live and enjoy the blessings of freedom and peace in the land of prosper ity and happiness.

Mr, Dixon was born in Illinois December 25, 1838 and crossed the plains to Oregon with nn ox team in 1852, later going to Cali fornia where ho worked nt min ing for a time. After the Indian war, In which he participated, Mr. Dixon again settled in this sbatoncar tho mouth of Rogue River.
