The weather was all that could be
| desired for the ceremonies attending
the decoration of the graves of union
soldiers yesterday. The sky was
cloudiess, the air cool and com Portable
Places OF business were closed, and
general interest manifested in the
object of the holiday. Promptly at
10 O'Clock j. w. Vim, Commander of
/. n. Nichols Post having in charge
the ceremonies of decoration, had his
forces in line on Walnut st. opposite
Post Headquarters. Company A
Cadets, proceeded by River Falls
Cornet Band, were in front, followed
by Comrades OF the Post in uniform,
members of l. .. o. F., Woman's Re-
lief Corps in carriages, Hover girls and
citizens. The line of March was up
Main st. and the County Line to
Greenwood Cemetery. The solemn
and beautiful ceremonies preparatory
to decorating the graves was conduct
ed by the Commander with the addi-
tion Of vocal music by select choir of
voices. The address by Rev. w. NJ.
Martin of Hudson was an eloquent
tribute to the nations defenders, and
was listened TO with evident apprecia-
tion by a large concourse of people.
The solemnity of the occasion was
realized by the almost universal de-
me nor of the vast throng.
That the memory of that glorious
band now lying silent under the
greensward is not fading from the
minds of men is evidenced by the in
creasing numbers that yearly interest
themselves in these ceremonies Of
Memorial Day.

When the Editorial Association of
Minnesota visited the state prison at
Saltwater recently and while looking
at the prisoners partaking of their
MONDAY meal lady in the crowd
remarked, Il suppose whiskey brought
these men here?" She was answered
in the negative by prison keeper
who had made study of the lives of
the inmates Tor years, informing her
that whiskey brought very few there.
The majority of them owe their
presence here. he said to their
parents, who kept them under no con-
troll at home, allowing them to have
their own way; hayward and insubor-
dinate in infancy and youth, they
grew up without respect for the rights
of others, with no idea of doing as
they would be done by. Graduating
from homes where there was no
restraint or discipline, drifting into
the criminal line was easy; the logical
results of their antec edents.
you look surprised but could you
as | have done, make a study of the
different classes, you would verify my
statement. | know that it is the
common notion that liquor is the
agent responsible for crime. L once
thought so myself, but | know better
now. AS the twig is inclined the tree
is bent; as the boy is trained, so is the
man. Were obedience taught the
child: instilled in tender, receptive
minds, it would become the principle
of life. Because it is not, we have
criminals. The effect of liquor you
may know, it is TO make more promi-
nent and pronounced for the time,
the chief characteristics of the person:
its influence does not by any means
make all who indulge criminals;
statistics show that more crimes are
committed in a state of sobriety than
under other conditions. As we search
for the primary cause we are always
brought around TO the starting point,
disobedience. the fruit of which is the
reckless, lawless mantle criminal.
The above sermon as it may be
called. is worth reading and worth
a thought. Read it over, and see if
there is not a good deal to it.-Thorp
Courier.

Marriage-Farnsworth- H dimes.

The COSY home of Mr.. and Mrs.
Frank Reed, on Prospect street, was
frightened last evening by very
pleasant wedding, their niece, Miss
Mamie NJ. Holmes, being married to
Mr.. Geo. w. Farnsworth, of River
Falls, Wisconsin.
1t was quiet wedding, there being
only the brides relatives and a few
intimate friends present. The rooms
were beautifully decorated with ferns
and roses. Rev. l.. ID. Boynton was
the officiating clergyman. A nice
wedding supper was enjoyed, and the
couple left on the cars for River Falls,
their future residence, by way of
Owatonna and st. Paul.
1t was a most delightful occasion,
arranged and carried out in excellent
taste, genuinely happy, and blessed
with the hearty good wishes of friends.
While at Peekskill. N. Y, Mr. j. A.
Scriven, a prominent manufacturer of
New York City, purchased bottle of
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. Such
good results were obtained from its use
that he sent back to the druggist from
whom he had obtained it for two more
bottles OF the same remedy. When you
have cough or cold give this preparation
trial and like Mr.. Scriven you will
want it when again in need of such a
medicine. 1t is a remedy of great worth
and merit. % and 30 cent bottles for

ON Friday evening, June 10th, the
River Fails Amateurs will present at
Opera Haui Charles Townsend's orig
inal war drama in four acts, entitled
The spy of Gettysburg" This is not
ike many sO-called war dramas writ
ten by one who has mo knowledge of
military matters. The Spy of Gettys-
burg is a genuine war drama. The ac-
tiOn is sharp and decisive. The au-
thor's thorough acquaintance with
military tactics and his careful study
of the mOmentOus struggle at Gettys-
burg have enabled him to draw a clear
and accurate picture, depicting life as
it was i'm the exciting days of '63.
Rev E. Bradford preached the Me-
mortal sermon at the Congregational
church on Sunday last. The discourse
was brief yet clear review of the his
tory of the war of 1861, showing the
progress of events which led to the fl
nal victory of the Union troops. The
speaker brought into vivid light each
detail and gave great interest to the
subject. The church was beautifully
decorated with flowers through the
kindly offices of the Relief Corps. 1t
need hardly be said the church was
filled To every corner by an attentive
and appreciatiye audience.
Mr. Shines practical bridge builder
Of experience ON railroad lines has a

structure that il TO span the stream
on Cedar street. The bridge is to be
two hundred feet long with seven
bents. Ii is hoped that this space
will give the rollicking Kinnickinnic
when it is full and ION a bender"
ample room TO find a way through
town without getting into the Jail or
taking everything along with it. The
bridge will be a massive structure
well built, firmly anchored and suf-
ticiently strong for any one to cross
with confidence and a big load. and
wide enough for him TO get over if his
load doesn't make him too top
heavy" NJ. Shines has been delayed
somewhat in his work on account of
failure to receive his timber on
schedule time. " but he hopes to have
the bridge ready for crossing by Satur-
day night.

At the appointed hour the exercises
commenced by a voluntary from the

Weeks followed by an anthem by q

been taken up Father ConnollJ was
introduced by Allen p Weld Esq. the
chairman of the committee, and was
greeted with warm welcome. The
address was intensely practical and
pointed. He handled the business Of
the saloon without gloves or fear. He
gave an earnest denial to the too
current idea among the ignorant that
the Catholic church admit dealers ~
liquors TO its church membership.
Many other points were made of
interest showing a true devotion TO
the cause of temperance. The people
will be glad TO hear Father Connolly
again at some future time when his
engagements will permit,
