MEMORIAL DAY IN lola,

Year by year Memorial Day is be-
coming more generally observed all
over the country. And this is well.
The ever increasing enthusiasm with
which 1t Is celebrated is wholesome
sign that the spark of patriotism is
stin bright and warm, and that, If
need were, the old grand response
would be made to the call Of our
country. Especially is it right that
the young should be now and again
thrilled with the recital of the deeds
that contributed so much to the high
privileges they enjoy the bravery,
the loyalty, the devotion of their faith
ers. Appropriate, indeed, and touch
ing it is, that the surviving patriot
should strew with memorial flowers
the grave of his fellow comrade; but
he needs no such reminder, and no
such inspiration to love of country.
The bugie call, the march, the car.
mage Of battle are too fresh in his
mind. They have burned loyalty in
to his soul, aud it will only depart
with the spark of life. But the young
have never heard the thunder Of war.
To them all this Is vague. 1t is histO-
ry. We say, then, it Is well that they
should be brought face to face, as near
as may be, with the reality of war, the
the self sacrifice of patriotism, the du.

A HAPPY WEDDING.

A quiet wedding Tuesday night
somewhat surprised the friends of Mr..
Michael Fay and Miss Mary Toy, but
did not prevent them from wishing
the happy couple every joy and hap

should be and the good wishes that
follow Mr.. and Mrs. Fay are numerous
aud hearty. They have long been
favoritesin lola society, and are known
only to be liked The wedding took
place at the residence of Hon. H. w.
Talcott, brother-in-law of the bride,
the ceremony being gracefully per-
formed by His Honor. A very few of
the immediate friends of the contract
ing parties were present. Mr.. and
Mrs. Fay will of course make lola
their home, Mr.. Fay's business inter-
ests being permanently located here.
We extend sincere congratulations
and best wishes.

ONE of the most shocking and sick
catastrophes ON record occurred We'd
nesday on the new East River bridge,
New York. A jam of people coming
from each direction met in the narrow

panic. Scores tainted, large number
were injured and from fifteen to thirty
met a horrible death hv being tramp

ty OF citizenship. They should feel
with pride that when the survivors of
the great conflict have joined their
fallen comrades they will still do hon
or to their memory. with nothing less
of zeal, nothing less of devotion.
Wednesday witnessed the most sue
cessful and impressive memorial SER
vice ever held in lola. Every body
was surprised at the immense attend
ance, especially from the country. The
unusual attendance and interest were
doubtless due largely to the wide in
fluence of the Post of the Grand Army
under whose auspices the ceremonies
were conducted.
The gloominess of the morning was
dispelled at an early hour by genial
sun, and the afternoon proved fine. 1t
soon became apparent that but small
fraction of the people could be accomO-
dated in the Opera House, and it was
concluded to march to the cemetery
and proceed with the exercises there.
The procession formed in the follow
ing order: Band; Firing Squad COM
manded by Capt. T. S. Slower; Grand
Army of the Republic, commanded by
Capt. L. NJ. Sawyer lola Cadets;
Flower girls; Citizens. The long pro-
cession of girls beautifully dressed and
almost buried in flowers was extreme
ly beautiful, and their appearance was
greeted with numerous EXPLANATIONS
Of delight. The flag borne by the Fir
ing Squad attracted much attention,
and well deserves it. 1t is a large silk
flag literally shot to shreds and patch
es. 1t was presented to Capt. l.. NJ.
Sawyer's company by the ladies Of
Omaha. and by Capt. Sawyer present.
ed to the LIST Nebraska Regiment. 1t
went through sixteen battles of the
war, and was shattered by one cannon
ball and fifteen smaller shots. AT the
close of the war it was returned to
Capt. Sawyer. AS he expresses it, it
has seen more dead soldiers than any
Of us.
At the cemetery the exercises were
opened by the band "Rest for the
brave" This was followed by very
beautiful and appropriate song Deco
ration Day." sung by Miss May Morey,
Mrs. Othick, Messrs. Henderson and
Scott. Hon. J. H. Richards then de-
livered the grafton. 1t was short, in
excellent taste, an eloquent produc-
ton and well delivered. We have
been requested to publish it, and it
will appear in full next week.
After the grafton and the singing of
America, the procession marched to
! the soldiers graves, where the formal
exercises were conducted by the Post.
Statutes we're fired, and the girls di-
vided into squads handsomely and
profusely decorated the graves of the
fallen soldiers. The same general Or
der was observed in the march back to
the city, and the best decoration SER
vices lola ever had closed decently
and in order.
The G. A. r. wish to thank heartily
all who assisted them 80 materially,
particularly the ladies', the floral COM
mittee, the flower girls, the band, and
the choir.

DR.. BELEw'S LECTURES.

DR.. Bellows lectures and experiments
are arousing quite furore of interest,
and metaphysical heads are puzzl-
ing themselves to account for his
strange power. Some are believing,
some are incredulous, some reserving
their Judgment. But whether he can
communicate his ability to others, as
he claims, or not, he himself certainly
has remarkable magnetic and electric
al force. He has organized a large
class. You mustn't be surprised ifsOme
of your positive" friends come along
some fine day and cause you to forget
your name, or stand on your head, or
something equally interesting.

THE SABBATH SCHOOL CON-
VENTION.

The Allen County Sabbath School
Convention held at Maple Grove
church, Salem Township, last Monday
and Tuesday was fairly attended by
representatives from the county
schools, and quite numerously by the
people of the neighborhood and town.
ship. The meetings were thoroughly
profitable ard interesting. There was
no tagging, and the discussions We're
characterized by earnestness and ell
thusiasm. 1t was a stirring up that
will be felt in the schools of the county
for long time, and that is the main
profit ofsuch gatherings. We have
not space to refer to the exercises in
detail, but they were almost without
exception prepared with care and fol-
lowed by animated discussions. The
temperance question received earnest
attention and ringing resolutions were
adopted, which we will publish next
week. The visitors were royalty en-
tertained, magnificent picnic dinners
being served each day. Sharpened
appetites and elegantly prepared pro-
visions made most happy combina-
ton.
The next convention will be held at

A FEW FACTS.
lola, Kan, May 80, lsS

lola, Kan, May 5u, 1000.
Editor Register: In the Kansas
Prohibitionist of the 9th see an arti-
Gle entitled Liquor dealers in court, y
taken from the Chanute Chronicle.
Just what is intended by the article is
hard to determine. If it is to air some
personal hate for Judge Talcott, or to
satisfy the cravings of some old grudge,
it is debasing independent Journalism
to that level where it ought not to
affect the minds of fair and honest
men: if 1T is an effort to break the
Judges chances in the race for judge
ship this fall, it is something Mr.. Van
Bennett has very little to dc with and
very unjustifiabie step on the part OF
the Chronicle. if it is to give the peo-
Die the news, it strikes SO wide of the
mark as to truth that it is far from just
ifiable on that score. / am a .prohibi-
ZIONIST: worked for the amendment
to the constitution, voted for it and
secured all the votes L could for it, and
I believe in the enforceSIsnt of the law
in regard to it; but if we haze to st6Op
to lying and deceit to accomplish the
desired end We had better postpone it
awhile
AS to the facts: Simmons was call
ed up for trial at the time mentioned
i'm the Chronicle. Information filed
by the county attorney contained
twenty-five counts. Eleven of them
were prior to the 22nd of February, at
which time Simmons had been ar
raigned and had plead guilty to a num-
Der Of charges generally had been fined
and discharged. To these eleven
counts Defendant entered his plea in
bar. The plea substantially averred
that Defendant had once plead guilty
to the same offense and had been pun
ishedand discharged; and farther
averred that he hadbeen eXonerated and
granted immunity for any offense COM
mitted prior to that time, by the state.
To this plea the state demurred. The
demurrer of course admitted the facts
set forth in the plea. The court over
ruled the demurrer, and to the ruling
of the court, the irate apostle Of Demo-
cratic.prohibition what an anomaly
excerpts, and bewails the unhappy lot
of the people governed by such a judge.
Judge Talcott is not an angel and be-
lieve lays no great claim TO the Office of
a prophet, and therefore he may have
erred i'm his ruling on the demurrer,
but thousands Of attorneys and Judges,
far better known i'm judicial circles
than the sage Editor of the Prohi1i-
Zionist, have made much graver errors.
There is little parchment called the
constitution, and we advise that great
reformer to call around to some attorn-
ey's office and borrow it awhile,
which says that man shall not be
twice punished for the same offense,
and the demurrer admitted that fact:
according to all the authors on plead
ing, except the editor of the Prohibit |
Zionist, u general demurrer must be |
overruled If there il any thing good in
the pleading at all; Judge Talcott
thought there was something in the
plea, If admitted and oyerruled the de-
murrer. The state then took issue on i
the plea and called jury to pass upon
it. The jury heard all of the testimony
and they were as stupid as the judge
and said it was good plea. But here

with the paddles that they could
propel their canoes at rate which
would require a smart steamer to
exceed or equal. The natives were
not numerous along the river. They
were found in large numbers near
the coast, but not one was seen by
Mr.. M'Farlane and his companions
during the last go miles of their
voyage. The author of "The Cruise
of H. M. S. Challenger" described
the natives met at Humboldt Bay,
which is OH the north coast of the
island, as having dark brown skin,
and as being short in stature but
otherwise we'll formed. Their hair is
woolly, and usually stained with
red powder. Their foreheads are
good, eyebrows slightly contracted
noses broad and flat, and nostrils
wide and generally adorned with
pair of bears tusks. The ornaments
worn by them are very numerous,
and they are fond of decorating
themselves with flowers and strong
scented plants. In what might be

made up the Fly River in 1873 by
the Rev. S. M'Farlane, some in
teresting information is given re-
speeding the native tribes. At
one side of village the party
observed long row of turtle shells,
numbering between 40 and so, lead
ing to kind of arbour formed of
bamboos and branches of trees,
around which were figures represent
ing men in the act of spearing turtle.
Inside the arbour was placed the
skull of man who had been famous
for spearing turtle, and to this skull
presents of food were taken, and the
natives being inveterate smokers,
occasionally blew puff of tobacco
smoke over the skull, under the I'M
preston that it was quite capable of
enjoying it. This turtle arbour was
kind of temple built as an offering
to the spirit Of the skull, who was
supposed to assist the natives in
getting plenty of turtle. At
village which was met with before
the river was entered the people
were found to be very friendly
men, women, and children moving
about without fear; but behind the
village the people were prepared
for war ut moments notice, as
bundles of bows and arrows stood
ready for use. In the chiefs house
which was about $50 feet long, with
out any partition, families appeared
to occupy portions of the interior
around fireplaces along each side of
the room. At one end of the house
that which the chief reserved for
himself-there was bundle of
lower jawbones and a string of
human skulls. He possessed also
small bundle of sticks, worn and
greasy, carefully tied up, indicating
the number of men he himself had
killed. Walking a couple of miles
inland from the river the party came
upon a 14-acres plantation, well
fenced with bamboo. The soil was of
a deep rich alluvial description, and
the surrounding country such as was
evidently under water during the
rainy season. The bamboo fences
wore a protection against wild pigs,
which were very plentiful. The
natives of the Fly River were
described as very numerous and
great warriors.
At the mouth of the river there
were two large villages, some of the
houses being 800 or 400 feet long.
The people appeared to be intelligent,
and manifested great interest and
delight in all they saw and ir"what
they received. But some of the tribes
in the river displayed their warlike
habits, and their desire to oppose
any encroachment by white men on
the territory of the natives, by
endavouring to attack Mr.. M
Farlane's party. War-canoes, each
