About 400 people attended Co. KS
excursion to Clay Center last Tuesday.
The train of seven coaches left the de-
pot about eight O'Clock. Arrived at
Clay Center, the eXcursiOnistS were met
at the depot by a reception committee
of %, detail from the Golden Belt
Guards, the Dispatch and Juvenile
bands. In behalf of Clay Center, Brig
Gen'l Flenniken welcomed Abilene in a
very happy speech, and G. S. Crawford,
Esq, responded pleasantly. Royal
treatment was accorded the Abilene
people from the start; carriages were
placed at their disposal free of charge;
the city council voted them the freedom
of the city, and the utmost attention
was paid to their comfort and pleasure.
| About o'clock c. c. Biting, in few
neat and appropriate remarks, thanked
the Clay Center people for their royal
treatment, and with three hearty cheers
| for Clay Center our people left for the
depot, the train leaving about o'clock,
and arriving at Abilene little after
o'clock. The eXcursiOnistS are very EN-
enthusiastic in their praises of ClayCent-
er people. Long may they live to enjoy
the sweet delights which surely spring
from noble, kindly natures. Asa tinan'
cial investment, however, we are sorry
to state that the excursion was not &
pronounced success.

An interesting and graceful proceed
ing was the presentation of beautiful
flag by Mrs. Hattie Mcclellan to Co. X,

company, drawn up in two lines before
the hotel de Mcclellan, were welcomed
in behalf of the patriotic donor by Hon.
J. r. Burton, whose words were well
chosen and eloquent. e. W. Hurd,
ESD, in very neat effort, presented the
flag to the company. Color Ser
geant c. c. Biting, ir., received
the colors and returned the thanks
of the company in graceful and feeling
words. After the singing of the ''Star
Spangled Banner by Mrs. Charlie
Crane and Ii. Shadinger, the deep tones
of the company swelling the chorus, the
soldier boys gave three cheers with a
will to Mrs. Mcclellan, the generous
donor of the flag, and then, with cleft
face and march, " they were off down
the road, the flag floating proudly III
the breeze as if conscious of the fact
that it was in the keeping of strong
arms and brave hearts.
