A Well:Contested Game Won
by the Small Margin of
One Ron
Headed .by the Chemawa band the
Bankers and Grocers, composing the
eraek teams that wielded the willow
on the Willamette field last evening,
marched from the Y. M. C. A. rooms
at 6:15, and proceeded to the ball dia
mond. A crowd followed the march,
listening to the music, but when the
gates were reached about naif failed to
go in.
The game inside was a? hummer from
start to finish, and so well did each
player show up that it waa impossible
to select any one and say he did bet
ter than the rest. The final score waa
11 to 10 in 'favor of the bankers.
Everyone was glad the band? was
there. Joe Teaibo has certainly done
wonders this spring in bringing his
musician into shape, and they will al
ways be welcome in Salem. They did
much last night to enliven the game.
The gate receipts were $26.25.

inspiring than can be expressed by the
most eloquent tongue of the .greatest
orator. ,
The city is today paying a magnifi
cent tribute in its offering of bloom
and fragrance to the veterans of the
stormv days of the '60s. .With each
recurring year the ranks of the white
haired and wrinkled veterans becomes
thinner, and larger numbers are joining
the ranks of that "greater army"
which is marching in the realms of
peace. The bine, coats, the brass but
tons, the scarred faces, the mangled
limb?, the halting walk of the old vet
erans bring to our minds the heroic
deeds which were done by these men
and their'comrades in that great strug
gle that ended more than 41 years ago.
Their presence in the ranks, following
the old battle nags, brings a recollec
tion of the fearful days when the na
tion faced the greatest issue that has
ever confronted it.
The local G. A. E. post, faithful to
its traditions, will assemble and
march to' City View cemetery, where
the appropriate ritualistic service will
be rendered.
The cemetery has taken on almost a
festive air, and, were it rot for the
memories that surge over one as he
treads the paths of the silent city, he
would imagine himself in some fairy
garden. Early yesterday ladles and
children began wending their wav to
the streets of the dead, bearing with
them wreathes and garlands, bunches
and baskets of the fairest flowers; to
lay upon the last reposing places of
their dead. All day long the proces
sion continued, and this morning in
creased in volume. Br 9 o'elcck the
numbers had become so great that the
street ear company was obliged to put
on an extra car between Willamette
Hotel and the cemetery to accommo
date thecn. As the volume of traffic in
creased, other cars were added, until by
noon the entire extra equipment of the
company and every man that could be
spared were used to transport people to
South Salem. Past The Journal office
this morning a stream of carriages
flowed toward the cemetery, each one
loaded with "beautiful floral offerings.
An inspection of the gardens of the
city about 11 o'clock this morning
showed that the entire city had been
denuded of bloom to furnish appropri
ate symbols of love for those lying in
the city on the hill. MoEumenta and
gravestones and the well-kept graves
were covered with flowers, and; even in
the presence of reverent sorrow, sub
dued gaity showed that the aesthetic
beauty of thef scene was appreciated.
Probably threquarters of the people
of Salem will visit the cemetery before
the day la over.
At the G. A. B. ball this morning"ev.
erybody waa busy. The ladies of the
Belief Corps were on hand early to
receive donations of provisions antf
lowers, aad they were tot disappointed
in the generous response to their ap
peal. The flowers were arranged to dec
orate tho hall for the G. A.B. lunch
eon will be held after the return from
the cemetery, and were placed la
bunches, that each veteraa in the ranks
tfgbt drop a posy on the grave of a
departed comrade.
Salem Will Celebrate the Na"
tions Birthday in
Grand Style
The fub-eoramittees on Fourth of
Jnlv met last night at the city hall. A
general discussion was held, and much
enthniiam was apparent in favor of a
grand celebration on our nation's day.
Chief Savage, of the fire department,
was called upon and said he wished the
proposal to put the department in the
parade might be referred to the coun
cil. ilijcr ioomis reported proffers
from a number of bands, and that Dr.
Eppley was preparing for a number of
soags. solos and choruses and they felt
snre of a good lot of musical selections,
mittee has allowed $o00 to provide
music for the celebration.
H. D. Patton reported that the com
mittee on "bizarre pa'raders" or plug-
proposed floats. 2Sr. Page offered to
contribute quite substantially in labor
and decorations, and said he would ap
point his assistants on decorations in
a few days. He aked to know as soon
as possible what money would have to
be spent in decorations. Mr. Patton I
iivjvsci a piun ui uecorawon waicn
would have permanency for its object.
This idea was heartily concurred in,
and the feeling seemed to be in favor
of the purchase of permanent flags,
electric streamers, etc.
The matter of concessions wag dis
cussed, and was left for the next meet
ing of the general committee.
The committee on selection of a god
dess of liberty reported that it has
formed a plan for the selection by a
voting contest, and will begin by ask
ing for the publication in easy of the
dally newspaper of a free coupon of
five votes for the purpose of nominat
ing the candidates for goddess. After
this votes will be sold at five cents

BEATTY. At the family home in En
glewood, Tuesday evening. May 29,
1&CM3, of complication of diseases,
Hamilton Beatty, aged 7S years.
Deceased came to Salem in 1590,
and hast made his home here ever since
that time. He was a native of Penn
sylvania, but had lived in Minnesota
during the pioneer days of that state.
He followed the occupation of farming
until he came to Salem, whea he re
tired and lived upon the income of a
goodly estate.
Deceased leaves a wife, Mrs. Sarah
Beatty, a eoa, H. A. Beatty, of Santa
Barbara, CaL, and a daughter, Miss
Mattie F. Beatty. of Salem. The funer
al will be held at the home Thursday
afternoon at 2:30 o'clock, under the

state by government officials will be
at Pendleton. The government machin
ery is to arrive from Pullman, Wash
ington, during the week, and it is
probable that the work will begin next
Thursday. The rock for the construc
tion of the road will be taken from
the county quarry. Since the govern
ment will have a portable crusher, it is
probable 'that two crushers will he
used. It has. not yet been decided
what width the road should have. By
some it is believed that a 16-foot road
way the entire distance whould be
preferable; on the other hand others
favor a 16-foot-roadway in front of the
fair grounds only, and the remainder
to be 12 feet. The first thing to be
done will be the establishing of a
grade, which, in this particular stretch
will be a comparatively easy matter.
A layer of crusked rock, two and a
half inches indcpth will then be put
on and thoroughly rolled with a steam
roller. On top of this layer will be
placed another layer of crushed rock,
somewhat finer, two inches in depth.
When the roller baa been applied,
"screeniaga'1 will then be put: oa,
moistened or sprinkled with water and
rolled effectively. This is, in a gener
al way, the method used in the build
ing of macadamized roads, but the
process varies according to the "con
dition at the soil, and the grade and
quality of the- crushed rock.
