ments have also been made for feeding
twenty thousand persons on the Campfire
grounds At different points throughout
the grounds numerous tanks having
capacity of 200 gallons each were placed,
filled with ice-water, lemonade, and other
refreshing fluids. These are provided with
spiggots and the veterans had the privilege of
indulging ad Hbituns. The Campfire grounds

Brilliant Display of ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS by
Gen. Merrill and Others-The Blue

At nightthe camp grounds were brilliant
ly lighted with thousands of Chinese Ian
terms. The thrOng was immense, all the
avenues of approach to the Post being
blocked with vehicles. Commencing about
s o'clock, there was q superb display of fire
works, continuing until nearly ten, many Of
the devices being decidedly novel, one bear
ing the letters G.. A. r." exciting great ad-
miration. Some delay in the arrival of the
delegates neeessitated a postponement of th
formal ceremonies OF welcome until later
hour than had been arranged, and it was
not until ten O'clockthat the representative
members of the Order assembled in the
mansion. where refreshments were provided.
Ex-Mayor Latrobe presided, and delivered
the opening address of welcome.
Mn. James Hodges, leading merchant,
was then introduced, and as the representa-

extended a cordial greeting and sincere well

aroused among the people. 1t was an ap-

when the gallant survivors of both armies
adorned with flowers the graves of the brave
men who sleep their last sleep. We dedicate

Gen. George S. Merrill, COmmander-in-

President, with uncovered head reviewed
the procession. General Agnus, of the

as they filed by, and the President acknovI-
edged their marching salutes with wave

was driven to the residence of Mayor White
for dinner, at which the other members of

individual guests they were, were present.

THE TRUE AND BASE JOURNAL.

The New York Herald, commenting
upon Mr.. Watterson's article upon the
Chicago press, says: "The tendency to
improve is seen every day in the press,
and we are coming nearer and nearer to
Mr.. Watterson's ideal. Already in most
of our large cities there is respectable
heightened press, accepted by the pub
lie as representing the profession, and
largely free from the Ishmselism to
which Mr.. Watterson refers. In some
cities there has grown UP fungus para
site press, living on defamation and
blackmail The existence of this evil
only brings into contrast the better
features of the true newspaper. So
long as paper is cheap and the press is
free there will be blackmal and SANDER.

They faddled him up in warlike shine;
The knight stood in the door,
And he took such pull at the red Aarwine
As never man took before.
He led tho horse up the steps high and wide,
And spurred him over the wall

And not bone in him whole;
