The Rebel Flag Mt Richmond.

The rebel battle flags, which were carried by
the enemies of the Union in their fight against
those who now form the Grand Army of the
Republic. were brought out and defantly un-
furled at Richmond at the unveillng Of the Leo
monument on Thursday. The spirit of 81
which restlessly smolders in the breasts of
those who were "subdued," broke out atresh
when the incendiary banners of the lost cause
were faunted, amid loud and fervent shouts
of acclamation, through the streets of
the former capital of the Confeder-
acy. An officer who fought against
the Union troops said, in a speech before an
organization of eX-rebels, that If Lee had
known what the horrors of reconstruction
would be he would not have surrendered at
Appomattox." Confederate flags we're put
ton. A weak protest was made against this
indignity, but the authorities refused to remove
them. The States, of Richmond. placed
banner over the front of its Office reading:
Robert E. Lee, Americas Greatest Man."
Lots of other things happened down there on
the occasion of the unveiling of the magnifi-
cent monument to the honored Lee. The re-
ports say that the well-known "yel' was
uttered with its old time ferceness. These
things are very interesting to the heroes who
sacrificed SO much in '6l-'65.
Iris pleasing to the veterans 10 learn that
general protest comes from many places
they are called. and that bill is now being
prepared for presentation to Congress which
will prohibit such displays. There were many
excellent things said upon the subject by prom
inent speakers in different parts of the country
in Memorial Day addresses words that would
do the old soldiers good to hear. but they can
not be reproduced here as there is not room.

THE sHEEP-EATING PARROT.
A Taste for Live Mutton That Was Acquired
by the New Zealand Kea.

by the New Zealand Kea.
A singular bird has recently been added
to the collection in the London Geological
Gardens-the much talked of carniverous
parrot, which confines its love of an
imal flesh almost exclusively to NUT
ton. According to the naturalists
that have examined this rara avis,
it possesses two qualities heretofore unknown
in birds of its species. The first is this flesh
eating propensity, an exception to the whole
parrot family, which is frugivorous, living
on fruits, seed, leaves, buds and the like;
and second, the fact that this carniverous
taste is not natural, but acquired.
This curious bird is the kea (Nestor nota-
bilis), Or mountain parrot, and comes from
New Zealand. In the time OF the Maori
rule in New Zealand the bird was as inno-
cent and harmless as any of the parrot spe-
cies, and it was not until the higher tracts
of the country were utilized as sheep runs
that the kea was tempted to desert its fruit
eating habits and join the destructive army
of the carnivora.
About 1868 it was noticed that the sheep
of the uplands were suffering from sores and
scabs in the region of the loIns, and that
almost invariably the sufferers were those
latest and healthiest. Many discussions
ensued as to what could be the cause Soon
after some of the shepherds saw the feathered
cannibal seated on the hips of a sheep help
ing himself to dish of live mutton. From
that day forward the bird was known as the
sheep-eating parrot-the feathered wonder
of the antipodes.

The u. vi, mt the Cathedral,

Encampment No. i. Union Veteran Legion.
600 strong, will attend the services at st. PauPs
Catholic Cathedral, corner Fifth avenue and
Grant street, this evening. The comrades will
assemble at headquarters, Sixth avenue, at 7
o'clock. and will move in body to the church,
arriving there at 7:30 Extensive preparations
have been made for the reception of the Le-
glon. The full Cathedral Band will be stationed
in the balcony over the main entrance, and
play appropriate music as the veterans enter
and during the service. The Fathers of the
College of the Holy Ghost will occupy the sane
tuary and will sing a solemn requiem, while
the choir. largely increased, will furnish the
music. The church will be decorated with
American flags, and as the legion moves
through the center of the church with its
guidons and colors. they will file to the right
and left and occupy the seats nearest TO the
pulpit, 1t is estimated that many hundreds of
old soldiers not members of the Legion, and
citizens and their families who have never seen
the inside of the Cathedral, will be there and as
it has the largest seating capacity of any church
IN the United States. seating nearly 1000 peo-
pie, there will be room for all. The recent i'm
provements have made it one of the handsomest
churches in the country.

Politics Rigidly Excluded.

Concerning the violation of an article Of the
rules and regulations by two of the Pennsylva-
mia posts Department Commander Denniston
has issued the following order:
THE attention of the Department Command
er has been called to action taken by two posts
of this department. one located in Lancaster
county and another located in Crawford couns
ty, which is in fragrant and inexcusable viola
tion of article XI, chapter g. rules and regula-
tions, which reads as follows:
O oficer or comrade of the Grand Army OF the
Republic shall in any manner use this. organiza-
uon for partisan purposes, and no discussion o., OF
meetings, nor shall any nomination for political
ofice be made.
"The Grand Army of the Republic is not a
political organization in any sense or the woro,
and one of its proudest boasts is that partisan
politics are entirely eliminated by the funda-
mental law of its existence. 1t must not be used
to defend from accusation or to extol the virtues
and qualifications of any candidate or any
political party. Its members are citizens, main-
tanning a citizenship intensified and made more
than ordinarily earnest by the sacrifices they
have made for the good of our common dountry
the way of political preferment, 1t can be done
as an ex-solder cliiZen, hut not as member OF
the Grand Army of the Republic. Posts must
not indulge in resolutions Of Endorsement OF
candidates, whether such candidate be
comrade or not. The posts referred to which
have recently transgressed the rules and regu-
lations. have been instructed from these head
quarters that their action must be resc1nded, so
far as it is possible to do So and all other posts
are again warned against such transgression in
the future. Any further violation OF the rules
and regulations in this respect will imperil the
charter of the post or posts SO offending:
Partisan politics must be kept out OF the Grand
Army of the Republic"

Chill Hn zznrd'a Elouuence.

Colonel Chill w. Hazard, Past Department
Commander, delivered the Memorial Day ad-
dress at Monongahela City, For more than an
hour he held an audience Of 500 spellbound
with his burning eloquence. Eyes we're suf-
fused with tears frequently. Whisperings of
approval could everywhere be heard when he
deprecated the spirit that had recently dragged
forth the foul and decaying flag of treason
and 1aunted it in the face of forgiving peo-
ple." The speaker concluded in a dramatic
way by offering tribute of flowers to those
who had given their lives for the country they
loved SO well; another tribute for those who
had suffered the dangers, the trials and the
hardships of war; another for the 5000, 900
widows and orphans scattered across the con-
tinent, and another for the mother who gave
her son living sacrifice upon the altar of
liberty. Then pausing with handful of; flow
ers he asked: Are the people of this land Tor
giving enough, is the patriotism of this coun-
try brave enough, is the heart of this nation
great enough To cast tribute of flowers upon
the grave of treason2 No; not to-day. If
they were right We were wrong"

A Little Tot 8 Years Old Gets an Everett
Upright Grand Piano on Club Certificate 90.

Little Hazel Shipman, SO wilkins ave-
nue., Allegheny is the fortunate member of
the Everett Piano Club this week. She re-
ceives a fine Upright Grand Piano, with
the privilege of 81 weekly payments. The
Everett Club, or cooperative plan, is a
common sense business proposition and
offers advantages in prices and terms of
payment which cannot be obtained in anv
other way. The club contracts for $50
pianos, thus getting the lowest wholesale
price, $50 members each paying 81 per
week make up the price Of the piano, so
that while members have the privilege OF
the easy payments. they get the piano at
the lowest Wholesale cash price. One
piano is delivered each week on the 81 pay
ments. The rules provide for immediate
delivery of pianos to members, either for
cash, or on payments as low as s25 cash and
$40 monthly. In any case, members get
their pianos S75 less than they can be sold
by retail dealers. The pianos are as near
perfection as it is possible to make them.
Beautiful designs, in all woods, rich mu-
steal tone and light responsive actions.
Each instrument is warranted for seven
years. Piano purchasers should call and
see them or send Tor circular to the man
ager. ALEX. Ross,

which went through the drawbridge at Oak
land estuary yesterday afternoon, causing
the loss of 13 persons, was hauled up on the

the bodies have been recovered. The engine

Much might be said Of the observance of
Memorial Day n ere and elsewhere, but the de-
tails have been gwen quite fully by the daily
press. The day was beautiful throughout no
rain falling to interfere with the services The
revivifying rain was held until evening when it
poured down and the newly strewn and planted
''stars of earth" gained new life and beauty. A
Memorial Day in this vicinity was probably
never more quietly or successfully observed.
The absence of the general parade gave the
day in the old city an air of quietness. In all
the cemeteries the solemn rites of the day were
celebrated in finished manner WHICH showed
careful and conscientious preparation The
work was well distributed and no grave
suffered from lack of attention. Cemeteries
which had heretofore have had only details
sent to them were attended to by full posts and
the work consequently better done. Though
the thoughtless made gala day Of the solemn
holiday the soldiers and hundreds OF thousands
of others, to whom 'patriotism" is not mere
term, reverently paid tribute to the honored
soldier dead. and will continue to do so as long
as the heroic deeds and sacrifices of the boys
of 81 are remembered, which will be forever.

A Cbnrre of De,ertiop Removed.

Many comrades of the Eleventh Reserves will
be glad to know that the charge of desertion
THAT has existed since 1858 against Lawrence
Ruch Tor Ruff, Company D. Eleventh Re-
serves. has been removed by order of the Secre-
tary of War. Through the efforts of his attor-
ney, J. H. Stevenson, and his mother, an old
lady of Butler, Pa. during long fight, the SER
ious charge is removed. Comrade Ruch was an
inmate of the West Penn Hospital about April.
1868, and through the persuasions of some OF
his old Butler county friends he went home
only to STAY few days; but his sickness took a
serious turn, and resulted in death about June
81 1858. II was this absence from the hospital
that caused him to be marked a deserter.

CLEVELAND FINDS FOR THE CITY.
His Decision In the Famous Langdon Case
VIII Probably End IL.

dls Decision In the Famous LanRdon Case
Will Probably End Ii.
NEW YORK, May 31.-Grover Cleveland,
the referee appointed by the Supreme Court
last December to determine the questions of
value in the eight cases of Langdon against
the Mayor, has announced his decision,
in which he finds in favor of the city.
The plaintiffs sued to recover compensa-
tion for the destruction of their wharf
rights, which had been extinguished when
the city built the new bulkheads and piers
On the North river in pursuance of the act
OF 1871, and claimed that such compensation
should be at the rate of at least 81, 900 per
running foot. Mr.. Cleveland has decided
that the value of the plaintiffs rights is only
S100 per running loot, which will result in
judgment against the city aggregating in
all the cases probably less than $50, 900.
This sum the city has always been willing
to pay.
Corporation Council Clark said that in
his opinion Mr.. Cleveland's decision would
not only finally dispose of the Langdon
cases, which it seems have now been pend
ing before the courts for upward of 13
years. but would enable him to secure a
final determination OF several other itiga-
tions affecting she city's water front.
