ODD FELLOWS CEMETERY
After the Imposing Parade a Great
Throng of People Decorate
the Graves.

About the monument "erected by a
grateful people, in the soldiers plat on the
heights of the Odd Fellows Cemetery
great throng OF people had gathered by
noon yesterday. All the paths leading up
the hill and especially the wide carriage
road by which the procession was to pass
was lined with people as indeed was every
byway that led to the remote graves where
perchance soldier lay.
The monument near the top of the hill
was trained with evergreen and flag
f1oated at halfmast beside it. a platform
had been built and wrapped with flags,
facing down the hill, from which the
ceremony was to be directed. The sun
shone brightly and the wind was perhaps
little more demonstrative than might
have been desired. The soldiers burial
plat had been rope6 off and only those
having to do with the ceremonies of the
day were permitted within the inclosure.
A strain of music is carried by the wind
up to the heights, and the throng of peo-
pie there turn their eyes toward the gates,
a quarter of a.mile away and below. The
procession is entering the grounds, as may
be seen by the massing of people in that
direction and the occasional flash of SUM-
light from soldiers sword or the silver
instruments of the band.
The slow cadence of Chopin's funeral
march marks the measured progress of the
head of the line up the hill, the somber
roll of the drum and the deep sob of the
horns drawing nearer and nearer, the
mounted marshals leading the way and re-
straining the impatience of their horses,
the crowd parting for them as they come.
The deep intonations of the minute-guns
of Light Battery D are speaking from the
hill opposite. UP past the Odd Fellows
big mausoleum, and then round the new
cemetery. and then forward again until
they approach the last ascent and the
marshals ride on past the monument out
side the inclosure. The veteran infantry
men, with reversed guns, file between the
guards and form about the graves, and the
moaning OF the music ceases, although the
minute-guns which have been timing with
their thunder the long approach still
punctuate the ceremony till ITS close.
Now is to take place that for which the
day was set apart and preliminary to
which the pageant of citizens and soldiers
had been marching through the streets of

Let them remember that this flag Of

from Queenstown Heights to the far South,

hordes coming to destroy their, country
there is an earthen mound which has been

not perish from the memory of men. So

w IN haps nowhere better than in Cal
( Y Nifornia, the Garden State of the
Union, can the full significance
of the occasion be so ideally carried out.
Nowhere else can out-of-door arrangements
for the ceremonies be so confidently made:
nowhere grow more profusely the flowers
which have been beautifully selected as
tributes TO the heroic dead
And yesterday was an ideal Memorial
day for San Francisco. Under the blue
and silver OF the sky's triumphal arch in
the golden sheen of the suns brightest
rays, the whole City did honor to the mem
ory of those who had died to make its be-
ing possibility. Business was generally
suspended, and while many sought COM
mon means f relaxation and enjoyment,
there was a vast number that did not for
get the sacred duties of the day.
From an early hour the cars passing
toward the City cemeteries were crowded
with people laden with flowers. AS the
hour for the parade drew near. the side
walks lining the route of march were
thronged. Later the various burial places
where exercises were held could hardly ac-
commodate the multitudes in pious pill
grimage.
The military organizations never turned
out in better force nor trimmer shape.
The flowers were plentiful and their ar
rangement by fair hands worthy of the
occasion. Many significant word was
spoken in the addresses of the day, and
general acceptance of the occasion was
recognized. The far-seeing participants in
the days houoring sowed patriotism broad
cast, and many child held shoulder high
to allow him TO see parade or orator, or
taught to lay flower on a nameless grave,
caught some of the precious seed.
The formal exercises were held at the
National Cemetery in the Presidio reser-
vatio n and at the Odd Fellows Cemetery.

A Joke Enda In Murder.

A curiously complicated murder trial has just ended in southern France. A box of candy was put into the postoffice at Tarbes and opened by dishonest official, who ate some of it and gave some to two other clerks. They were all stricken down with atrocious pains, and the clerk who opened the box died, undoubtedly of poison.
 The box was directed to local poll tician and was traced finally to school master in a neighboring town, man of unblemished character and gentle manners, who had been persecuted by the politician. He was identified by the girl who sold the candy and the drug gist who sold him the poison and sent to hard labor for seven years. He assert ed that he never intended to poison hls enemy, but merely to administer strong purge as joke. New York Sun.
