ease is always worse at nights increased BY

scratch and tear the parts, frequently causing
a free flow of blood, and after restless night
will awaken unrefreshed and mentally de-
pressed dreading the coming night again. As

Memorial Day General Order.


Department Commander Denniston's Memo
rial Day general order was issued last week. It
follows:
"CoMRADEs-Once again the indices on the
dial plate Of time admonish us Of the approach
Of our sacred Memorial Day. So paramount is
every thought and action Of our organization
connected with the privilege, the solemn pleas
ure, and the duty of honoring and perpetuating
the memory Of our departed comrades in arms
that it seems almost q work of supererogation
to call this fact to the attention Of any member
of the Grand Army of the Republic. But, 1t is
sweet and profitable that we should commune
and strengthen one another, in our desire to so
guide our actions on this particular occasion Of
the year, as to again renew our high resolves of
love and loyalty to the memory of those who
have preceded us to the last muster and by our
spect and commendation of all our fellow-citi-
zens throughout the nation. Spring welcomes
''our day" with her fairest garb and her most
beautiful offerings. Let us reverently and af-
fectionately garland each patriots couch in our
department with the choicest of these, and
with fervent, manly love send benson of rev.
erence to the unknown graves of our patriot
brothers, which dot the plains and hills1des of
our sunny Southland.
"May 3D. 1890, will be observed by the posts of
this Department as Memorial Day; and it is
hoped that every comrade will consider it his
bounden duty to set aside this ono day of the
year, to the solemn performance of the re-
Quirements of our Association. Discourage
levity and merrymaking by every means in your
power; and by your example during the whole
day attest to the young, the giddy and the
thoughtless that this day is set apart by the
American people as enc OF holiness and respect
to the memory of our soldier dead.
POSTS will follow the usual custom Of divid-
ing the work in localities where this is made
necessary; but care should be taken that not
one grave be left unmarked. Many new mounds
will be found in almost every cemetery, and
they, too, should have your tender attention.
"Other kindred and patriotic associations,
Ladies of the g. A. R., the Military Order
of bthe Loyal Legion of the United States. the
Union Veteran Legion, and the Sons of
Veterans should be formally invited to par
tlcipate, under the direction and as the guests
of the Grand Army of the Republic"

It well known that General John A. Logan
was the author of Memorial Day. During his
life no person attempted to take from him the
honor-or any part of it-of conceiving and es-
tablishing the beautiful custom of strewing
flowers over the graves of soldiers. Recently
certain parties claimed a share OF the great
honor. Of the matter the widow OF the Illus
trious Logan writes:
''Since his death not few persons have
claimed the authorship of many of General
Logan's most brilliant acts and thoughts VINO,
if they were the real authors, were singuiariy
silent during his lifetime. l have refralned
from taking any notice of these psuedo-claim-
ants. My attention, however, having been
called to a communication of Mr.. Jun1us ST.
mons wherein he gives the credit to Mrs Kim
ball of having suggested the decoration of the
soldiers graves to General Logan, and gives
letter dated July of General Logan's to Mrs.
Kimball as evidence of the fact. The letter In
question is merely an ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF q
congratulatory one of Mrs. Kimball to General
Logan after the observance of the ceremonies
In Arlington. May go 1868 in obedience to Gen
sense intimates that he got the idea from Mrs.
Kfmban. The facts about the matter are these:
Colonel Charley Wilson, formerly editor OF
the Chicago Journal. and party of ladies from
Boston and Chicago came to Washington
February, 1858 and invited General Logan and
myself to go to Richmond and visit the historic
ground around that city. General Logan could
not go, as duties required his presence in Con-
of all we had seen; among others. OF the crude
decoration of Confederate graves. Whereupon
he said that the custom OF honortng the dead
by chaplets Of laurel and flowers was always
observed by the ancients, and especially by the
Greeks, adding, and intend to inaugurate the
custom OF decorating the graves vi the loyal
dead through the Grand Army of the Republic,
and will see if cannot get bill through
Congress making the day on which it is done
legal holiday We all agreed that would be
grand thing to do, and he at once took steps to
carry out his own ideas. General Chapman was
enthusiastic about it when the General men,
toned it to him, and SO it was done solely
through the promptings of his own great heart
iii his evsr-present desire to pay tribute to
loyalty, living or dead.
'.Mr. Simons occasionally addressed public
documents for General Logan, but was never
his private secretary. 1t must impress any
person as very strange that Mr..
Simons and Mrs. Kimball did not make this
claim long ago, as it is now almost % years
since the first order for Memorial Day was is
sued by General Logan, then Commander of
The Grand Army of the Republic.
