The celebration of the anniversary of the
Battle of Pilot Knob last Thursday, was car.
ried out according to programme, and was
participated in by hundreds of the G. A. R.
and citizens. Delegates from Belgrade and
Pennington posts arrived early, notwith-
standing their preliminary jaunt of about
twenty miles. The procession formed at the
hoh3 ohus uOodOo ny tuC 4lOAtOH SOAHCI
Band, marched to Pilot Knob, through the
town, and then back TO the depot, to await
the arrival of the excursion train from st.
Louis. That arrived in due time, with about
300 excursionists. Line was again formed,
and all marched to the old fort, where adj
dresses were made by Major David Murphy,
Mr.. W. M. Kinsey and Mr.. M. L. Ratchford.
Major Murphy's address would have been
well enough If he had ignored politics; but
his waving the "bloody shirt" was no more
pleasant to some of his hearers than were
the political remarks of Mr.. Ratchford to
others. There Is more excuse for the latter
gentleman. perhaps, since many claim it was
whiskey and not the man that was talking.
Mr.. Kinsey's remarks were appropriate to
the occasion, and were attentiyely listened
to. Ex-Gov. Fletcher also talked a few min
utes, and his words were appropriate to the
occasion. We wish we could say the same
of all. Taking it all through the celebration
was not the success hoped for; and we doubt
If, within the present generation, there will
be another equal 10 the first-held six years
