Quite Satisfactory!

A connection has been made with
the railway water tank by which,
with few lengths of hose, the water
can be conveyed from it to the tub
upon either of the fire engines to be
used in case of fire. Last Thursday
engine No. l was taken out and the
connection tested. When five lengths
of hose were used between the tank
and the engine the supply Of water
hardly equaled the capacity of the
engine, but when two lengths We're
taken out and three lengths used, the
flow of water was quite satisfactory.
In case of fire adjacent to it, this tank
will prove val liable addition to- the
water supply Of the village. .

A Fall

Last Wednesday evening about three
fourths Of the shelves upon the north
side Of J. e. Danielson's store with
the goods upon them, fell into the
middle of the room. There were dry
goods, clothin 9, trunks etc. in endless
variety tqmbled into one promiscu-

shelves had been placed in position
and the goods arranged upon them as
before. But little damage was done
but the collapse caused q great deal Of

Decoration Day

The practice Of setting apart one
day each spring for the decoration OF
graves of fallen soldiers originated III
the south. So much that Is fittingly
appropriate and beautiful was found
in the exercises ofthe day, that the
custom was Immediately adopted by
the people of the North and now
Decoration Day is generally observed.
The laws recognize it and make OF IL
one of the legal holidays of the land.
AS time wears on, Decoration ex-
ercises become more general in charac-
ter. At first only soldiers graves
were decorated, but now it is custom
airy for people to ornament the graves
of all their friends with flowers
whether they were soldiers or not.
The many fallen heroes deserve to be
kept in grateful remembrance ana we
hope to see Decoration Day generally
observed in Morris as it will be else
where. In this connection the follow
ing excerpts from VIII Cartoons no.
ted poem will be read with interest:
COVER THEM OVER.
"Cover them over with beautiful flowers;
Deck them with garlands, those broth ers OF
ours;
Lying so silent, by night and by day,
Sleeping the years Of their manhood away:
Years they had marked for the joys OF the
brave:
Years they must waste in the sloth OF the
grave.
All the bright laurels they fought to make
bloom, ~.
Fell to the earth when they went to- the
tomb. qsIk :,
Give them the need they have won in the
past;
Give them the honors their merits forecast;
Give them the chaplets they won In the
strife.
Give them the laurels they lost with their
life.
Cover them over-yes cover them over
Parent, and husband, and brother, and
lover:
Crown In your heart these dead heroes OF ours,
And cover them over with beautiful flowers
Cover the thousands who sleep far away
Sleep where their friends can not find them
to-day;
They who in mountain and hillside and
dell.
Rest where they wearied, and lie where they
fell,
Softly the grass blade creeps round their
repose;
Sweetly above them the wild f1ow'ret blows;
Zephyrs Of freedom fly gently o'erhead
Whispering names for the patriot dead.
So in our minds we will name them once
more,
So in our hearts we will cover them DER;
Roses and lilies and violets blue
Bloom in our souls for the brave and the
true.
Cover them over-yes, cover them over.
Parent, and husband, and brother, and lover;
Think of those far away heroes of ours,
And cover them over with beautiful flowers.
When the long years have crept slowly
\ away,
zen to the dawn of earth's funeral day:
When, at the Archangers trumpet and tread,
Rise uut1 The faces and forms Of the dead:
When the great word i ID in its Judgment awaits;
When the blue sky shall si@ng open It's gates
And our long columns march illently
through,
Past the Great Captain, for final review;
Then for the blood that has flown for the
right,
Crowns shall be given, untsrnished and
bright;
Then the glad ear Of each war-martyred son
Proudly shall hear the good Judgment, "Well
DONE"
Blessings for garlands shall cover them over
Parent, and husband, and brother, and lover:
God will reward those dead heroes of ours,
And cover them over with beautiful flowers

licious eatables by giving the repast

Last week the TRIBUNE contained

Last week the TRIBUNE contained
a paragraph expressive of sympathy
for DR.. Heenan in his political disap-
pointments. How sorely he needs
this sympathy a letter since received
plainly shows. BY the combined
use of his memory and imagination
he seems to be able to think US in
need of sympathy too. This illusion
we have no need or disposition to dis
pei. We would not deprive misery
of company, even though the COM
partnership be of an imaginary kind.
The readiness with which he admits
the many obligations Of the Demo-
cracy of the county to the TRIBUNE
is truly pathetic and makes us feel
very, very thankful. In perusing the
letter, we hope our readers will note
the mastery composition and profun-
dity of thought displayed-the Doctor
himself intimates that it Is brilliant
and we thus request close attention so
that these good qualities may not be
overlooked. Following is the letter:
My Dear Randall:-Many thanks
for your generous sympathy in yes
terday's issue of your very desirable
paper, the TRIBUNE. cannot recall a
circumstance since 1 had the honor of
having you run against me for audi
tor (you will pardon me for admitting
that you did run, for it is really the
| first time have ever made this adj
misslon) that has given me as much
pleasure as this little evidence Of your
friendship. 1t Is all the more to be
appreciated when one considers the
fact that you hoped to be my success
sor in the auditors office provided
such pre-eminent ability both natural
and acquitted, as you admit possess,
should be recognized by the admins
tration at Washington. Besides, the
| democracy of his county are under
many obligations to the TRIBUNE.
and cheerfullytestify to the fact
that it is my honsst conviction that
| the TRIBUNE has aided In electing
| more democrats to Office than dozen
Democratic papers could have done.
I will, therefore, always feel that it is
incumbent upon me to dc what little
| I can towards repaying this obliga-
ton, hence 1 send you this bit of
straw sunshine to enliyen thu leaden
dullness of your pages. Hoping that
some day your qualifications fol- the
auditors office may be discovered. I
am, with the highest regard, :.

Montevideo Leader: To see the
number of cattle that are annually
taken from here, one would conclude
that the country is already abundantly
stocked, but such is far from the case.
This region is able to turn out five ten
head where it turns out one, to and
not native stockers, but sleek, fat
grade steers and COWS, and there is
where the profits are coming in some
day. There isn't one quarter the pro-
fit in two-year olds at $40, to SIS. that
there is a yearling at the same price.
There has been great amount of
Sticking up done about town this
Spring. Yards have been graded,
fences built, trees and shrubery plan
ted, houses painted and many other
things too numerous to mention. BY
such work the general appearance OF
our thrifty young city has been great
ly improved. There are few, how.
ever, who do not seem to imbibe free
ly of the spirit ofimprovement, whose
places are still in slovenly, inditfer'
ent condition. These should notice
the good work of their neighbOrs and
initiate their example.
Some time ago the county auditor
objected to furnishing copy Of the
county commissioners proceedings to
the official paper, the TRIBUNE, and
claimed to think this work not a part
of his duty. The matter was referred
to county attorney Brown who gave
formal, written opinion, which was
filed in the auditors, office and which
gtated that it is the duty of the audi
tor to furnish copy Of the county com
mtssioners proceedings 10 the officia
paper Of the county. This did moi
satisfy the auditor and the matter
was referred to the Attorney Genera
of the state who confirmed the opinion
of the county attorney and also called
attention to decision given by At
torney General Cole few years ago
deciding the same question in thu
same way. This will probably settl

HOW THE BABY GROWS.
The children.s opln,!

The Children's Opinion
Nobody secs .hs baby grow,
Baby, dear. with the laughing eyes,
Who came to our house "a year AFRO,
Looking ever so wrlnklod and wise;
But every day OF the happT year
He has taken upon him some beauty new,
And rs for growing, why, this is clear.
He never had anything else to do.
Grandmsmma saws: when he's asleep,
Then it is that tho baby grows
Close TO the crib we often creep
To watch. but we don't think grandmi
knows.
Never fringe of the golden hair,
Clustering soft around his brow.
Lengtheus the least while we are there,
And yetit S growing-thc wonder, howl
Teacher talks of chemical things
Which into socrT' M lie combine,
And mother, listening, softly ngs:
20 God be good to this boy of minei"
And into the sunny summer days
Or into the wintry evenings cold
She weaves the notes of her joyful praise
While closely about him her fond arms fold
Nobody secs the baby grow,
But over his rosy little face
The prettiest ripples OF laughter flow,
The dancing dimples merrily chase;
The tiny feet are learning to walk
The rounded limbs are growing strong,
The lisping tongue is learning to talk.
As cheerily pass the days along.
Nobody can explain It all.
But one thing TO our thought is clear:
God, who secs IL u sparrow fall.
Sent our beautiful baby hero.
And mother cares for him, day and night
Ills easy enough when she loves him So
And God. whenever she puts out the light,
Just looks in and makes him grow.
