 This committee will meet at the Atheneum Hall at eight o'clock Tuesday morning and it ! is very desirable that flowers be promptly sent in In view of the backward season it ! will be necessary that all possessing flowers of any kind, even though few in number, | should contribute freely-surely small sac ! rifice compared with the lives laid down that our country might live.

 This makes the total amount contributed by citizens $217.75. About $1OO more are needed to carry out the Memorial day exer- cises in an appropriate manner, and this ! amount will no doubt be forthcoming. In
 addition to the money so generously donated, ] there will be need of large quantity of 1 flowers, and the lateness of the season pre-
 cludes the danger of an over abundance of
 such offerings. No doubt all will do their
 best to furnish what they may have, however
 small, for this interesting service. Railroad Hand Badly Hurt.
