For practical purposes clouds are di.

cirrus and nimbus. Meteorologists,
however, recognize many differences Of
form in each class. Abercromble gives
these ten principal varieties, with their

Extraordinary Phenomenon,

An extraordinary phenomenon popu-
larly called kamaitachi is reported from
Ntakomagori, Yamanashi Ken, in Japan,
says the Nichi Nichi Shimbun. Scien-
lists assign its cause to vacuum due to
atmospheric changes, while the villagers
think it to be the work of devils. The
circumstances giving rise to the above
theories are as follows: A man suddenly
falls down while walking in the open
air or in house when slit in the flesh
from one inch to one inch and half in
length and about an inch in depth is
found, the place principally attacked
being the legs. AT the time not much
pain is felt, but half an hour afterward
the pain increases as the blood begins
to flow. The wounds are said to be very
difficult to cure.

veterans of the Grand Army, many of
whom had fought under Garfield at
Chickamauga after his title of Colonel
had given way to that of General. Not

| field Post from the old home at Mentor,
and these too, as they carried a ,ife-like
| picture Of their patron saint between
the battle flags came in for a large share
of enthusiasm. No posts from outside
States figured in this division, but in
that of the Union Veterans Union,
which was next in line, there were good
sized contingents from Pittsburgh and
McKeesport. The Sons of Veterans
brought up the rear of the first division
proper.
Governor Campbell and staff, mounted
on magnificent specimens of horsefiesh
appeared in the second division, which
was devoted to the National Guard.
The places Of honor at their head had
been assigned to the Sheridan Sabres,
of Pittsburgh; the Washington Infan-
try, of the same city; the Jackson Rifles,
of Jackson, Mich, and the Third Regi-
ment of the West Virginia National
Guard.
There was break between the second
and third divisions, but when the First
Cleveland Troop, with detachment of
sailors and marines from the United
States steamer Michigan, came into
view the cheering was renewed with a
will. This was the special escort to the
President and distinguished guests.
President Harrison, with Vice Pres ident
Morton, occupied the first carriage,
drawn by four horses, while in the fol-
lowing vehicles were eX-President
Hayes, Secretaries Rusk and Miller,
Postmaster General Wanamaker, Gen.
eral j. ID. Cox, the orator of the day,
Generals Schofield and Sherman, Secre-
tary Window, Ex-Governor Fairchild Id,
of Wisconsin,; ex-Attorney General
Wayne McVeagh, Representatives Nc
kinney and Townsend, Ex-Governor
Foster architect George II. Kelly and
large number of other distinguished
guests. The. scenes which marked the
progress of this division were repeti-
tion of those accorded the veterans at
it's head. Cheers ran from block to
block like volleys of musketry, while
handkerchiefs and flags were waved by
the hundreds. The President respond
cd to the ovation by re peatedly raising
his hat and bowling until his neck
was stiff and his right arm tired.
The fourth division was composed of
five sections of knights Templar under
the command of Captain General M. j.
Houck, and as they marched along with
martial tread, their white plumes wav-
ing proudly in the air and their swords
shining and jewels sparkling in the
sunlight they presented an inspiring
spectacle. Immediately behind them

The grafton occupied in it's delivery
one hour and ten minutes. Towards the
end dark clouds loomed up in the east,
and there were several sharp peals of
thunder. The audience, becoming
weary. called time on the speaker and
also inuulged in several rounds of ironi
cal applause, but he kept on to the end
of his manuscript. After the "Hallelu-
jah Chorus" had been rendered the Pres

warm welcome. In remarkably vigor-
Gus manner, and with numerous gestic-
ulations he spoke as follows:

to the depots, and from that hour on a
continuous stream of humanity poured
up the main streets, while the steady
tramp and inspiring music of the
Grand Army veterans, knights Tenn
plar, Knights of Pythias and the State
militia, awoke the late sleepers and
gave inspiration to the preliminaries.
BY nine o'clock pedestrianism on Su-
perior street and Euclid avenue was
next door to an impossibility. Business
in the city was entirely suspended and
it seemed as though two-thirds of the
quarter of q million inhabitants of the
city had turned out en- masse to frater-
nize with the fifty thousand or more WIS.,
itors from outside points who, accord
ing to the best estimates, had arrived
within the past twenty-four hours. Still,
however, the inpour from the depots
continued, and the hotels, restaurants
and eating booths were besieged by
hungry mortals who cared not how they
took bite and drink so long as they
go it. Meanwhile the various divisions
of the parade had begun to form on the
streets running north and south of Eu-
cid avenue and west from Erie. The
crowds good d-naturedly gave way for the
various companies and their ranks were
filled in with commendable celebrity.

pointing to noon, Chief Marshal General
James Barnett gave the word for the
head of the column to move cast from

Some were in Grand Army uniform and
some in civilian attire. AT their head
they carried two torn, tattered and
faded battle flags, one of which had
been shot through and through until
scarcely an entire piece the size of

As his voice died away the hymn, "It

Henry Perkins, then announced that in
pursuance of the duty assumed by the
Grand Commandery they had assembled
to dedicate the memorial with knightly
honors Turning to the Sir Knight sta
toned in the east he asked: "Is it well

The sunbeams from the eastern sky
Flash from these blocks exalted high,
And on their polished fronts proclaim
Our worthy brothers widespread fame.

well in the west?"
The Sir knight replied:
The chastened sun adown the west,

No sad defect. no flaw to shame

well in the south?
The Sir knight answered.:
Glowing beneath the fervid noon,
This granite dares the southern sun;
Yet tells that wall of fervid fame
Our worthy brothers honest fame.

The Sir Knight replied:

CLEVELAND, May 31.-In the presence
of a vast multitude and with all the
pomp, ceremony and selemnity befitting
the occasion, the memorial erected by
the contributions of grateful country
in honor of James Abram Garfield
canal boat boy, school teacher, soldier,
statesman and President--was formally
dedicated yesterday. OF the tens of
thousands that were gathered upon the
green sward of Lakeview Cemetery
there were many that had journeyed
from far distant points to pay their last
tribute of respect to the memory of the
second of Americas Presidents to meet
his death by the bullet Of the assassin.
Two-thirds of the States and Territories
were represented in that throng. Upon
the platform the nation itself, in the
person of it's Chief Magistrate and three
of his constitutional advisers, lent rec
oguition and countenance to the event,
while over all and as pathetic side to
ths picture, the widow and children of
him whom all had met to honor looked
down upon the scene with mingled feel
ipgs of pride and sadness.
Cleveland looked much as did the
Quaker City at the dawn of the MEM
orable celebration of July 4, the centen-
Sial year. The already abundant dec
,rations of Thursday had been largely
added to during the evening and night,
until flags innumerable and acres of
bunting fioated in the breeze. Those
who had predicted fair weather upon
the report of the signal service that q
storm was inevitable were not disap-
pointed When the sun rose the sky
was cloudless and there was every
promise of dry, hot day. Even at this
early hour there were crowds of people
upon the streets. Many of them, in
fact, had sat up all night on the benches
in the public square and on doorsteps in
order that they might secure vantage
spots from which to view the procession
of the day. At five o'clock special
trains from all parts of the State began
to pour their loads of living freight in
