Decoration day was duly observed
in Lewistown, thanks tn the efforts
of a few patriotic citizens but fol
whose forts probably nothing
would have been done, for owing t.
the new officers Of the G. A. X. post
not having been regularly Installed
there was no organization to take
the initiative. Mrs. Garrett dis.
played her usual energetic spirit and
had fifty-ive young girls in line,
appropriately attired and each car
rying a wreath of green. A song by
the children was rendered at the
close Of the exercises. Remarks were
made by E. h. Cheadle and w. E.
Cort, the former combining himself
largely to the prevalence OF war
since the beginning of the world and
to some of the great principles
which have been made victorious by
a resort to arms, proving that while
war was terrible in it's enactment
the results were often greater, gran
der and more needful for q people
than could be accomplished by
peaceful methods. He also ad-
dressed some remarke to the children,
reciting briefly his recollection of the
great conflict. Mr.. COrt referred to
the sacrifice made by the last gener-
alton In battling for the cause of
liberty and laid special stress upon
the number of.cOmmon soldiers who
fell compared with the number of
officers, proving that while it was
the latter who planned the battles
and led the troops the men in the
ranks bore the brunt of the conflict.

selves notwithstanding but brief
notice had been given them and they

Two patriotic songs were rendered
by the audience led by Messrs.

Worden, who acted as chairman,
made a few appropriate remarks,
decrying the action of some towns
in arranging races and sports for
the celebration of a day, which is
especially set apart for hOnOring the
nations dead. The program closed
with the G. A. r. exercises, after
which a committee of the post wish

graves of the departed soldiers.
During the exercises, which were
held Saturday, although Monday
was the legal holiday. most of the
business houses were closed and
flags were flying at half mast.

Chicago Times Herald: 1t is claimed
by authorities on the art of war tina.
the greatest blow of the campaign be-
tween Greece and Turkey was struck
by Colonel Mahmoud Bev. who, with
one swift stroke OF his sword, COM
pletely severed a Greek officers head
from his body. These same authOri-
ties generously admit that this trick
may have been quite common in an
Gent times. when stalwart men swung
heavy battle axes, but they agree that
it is practically unknown in modern
warfare. They point triumphantly to
the fact that there is no record of any
such feat having been performed dur
ing the Franco-PrussIan war, though
cavalry charges and fierce hand-to-
hand conflicts were frequent; and the
Prussian has a reputation as a sabre
swinger. Therefore they are inclined
to be skeptical on the subject, and
speak of Mahmoud Bey's feat as a
marvellous example of strength and
dexteritv.
History is silent on the subject. There
is not a plethora of literature bearing
on its accomplishment. The original of
all such stories is, of course, The Ad-
ventures of Jack the Giant Killer.

The Philadelphia Record points cut

from the annexation treaty involves a

could not consistently take a position
against which we protested when it
was assumed by France. The privileges
which other nations have acquired by
treaties with Hawaii cannot be an

parties concerned. The point the Rec

that foreigners in Hawaii have ac-

the governments with which they have
