OBSERVED THE DAY.

lief Corps appropriate
ly observed Decoration
day yesterday at the
court house. There was
music by the band, in
vocation by Rev. At
kinson, solos by Miss
Jennie Snyder and Mr.
Macy, an address by
Rev. Henderson and
the benediction
The
floral and flag decora
tions were beautiful,
and surrounded the
portraits of McKinley, Roosevelt, Lin
coin and Grant.
The theme of the address, which was
a masterpiece in its line, was the monu
ments we build to the men who fought
our battles. The progress of the world
as related to the wars of history, from
the Meads and Persians over Babylon,
the Romans over the Greeks and Huns,
on down to Waterloo, the revolution and
the civil and Spanish wars was reviewed.
The idea that great national and com
mercial expansion always fellows as a
result of war, was strengthened and illus
trated by the use of maps of both hemis
pheres, which were prepared to show the
growth, particularly of the United States,
which succeeded our important military
ephocs. The homes and schools of the
land, and the firmer union, the larger
national life and increased national pow
er are the result of the sacrifice of 800,-
000 men in war. The speaker had made
a thorough study from this standpoint,
and his address held the interest of the
large audience.
Visits to the cemetery for decoration
were principally in the morning, though
continuing throughout the day
