DenYer Decoration Day Program.

Gentle spring with its glad associa-
tions of foliage and flowers, again as
sembles us to place tokens of love and
affections upon the graves of our COM
rades. who have given their lives in
order that our government might live,
or, who. after enduring the dangers
and hardships of military or naval
service, were permitted to live and
enjoy the blessings of a united country,
but, prematurely succumbed to the
lnfirmaties brought on by exposure in
the lineof duty, and are now in that
eternal Camp from which there is no
return.
We, the Survivors of the great strug-
gle for the prepetuation Of the Govern
ment represented by the starry ban
ner, the emblem of liberty, equal
rights, law and order are rapidly near
ing the period when we too must join
the great army above. The days are
counted when the last comrade will
deposit his final wreath, in commemera-
ton of this sacred duty, which is ac-
hered to in all parts of our glorious
land.
While We are permitted to celebrate
this solemn festival of the dead and to
demonstrate to this generation and to
generations to come, our devotion to
our departed comrades, we should not
allow this day to be marred by worldly
festivities, but give emphatic express
sion of our disapproval, if such acts
of sacrilege be attempted.
The assembly will gather in the park
where the opening exercises will be
rendered, beginning at 10 O'Clock a. m.

MIDNIGHT KITE PHOTOGRAPHY.
Suspended Camera Used as q Spy
on Hostile Forces.
.Netg York Euen5ng Sun.

Some very notable advances have been
made in the science OF kite flying during
the past year. The great utility of the
kite for military purposes has been con-
clusively proved. Iii the line Of signaling
especially the kite has shown its adapta-
bility even more than the captive balloon
The recent feat at Ba yonne, n. j., Of car
ryng telephone wire through the air
on kite string and dropping it to the
earth / 900 feet away from where the
kite was anchored, so that signals could
be transmitted back and forth, is an
other distinct advance in the science. It's
practical utility is great and could man
have been in the rear of Gen. Grant at
Vicksburg, for instance. with such device,
he would have been able Co exchange mes
sages with the Confederates pent up in
the city. 1t could be accomplished at any
siege N fact, and ia the night time when
it's presence would not be known to the
enemy.
However, the advances OF the past year
have been in q measure conclusive, and the
next development will be in the line of
midnight air photography. BY this is mea Mt
thetaking of pictures in cameras suspended
from the kite string at night. Large city
districts have been accurately photo
graphed by means of kites during the day
time. but 40 rnidair kite photographs have
been taken at night. Experiments are
making in this direction and very sat
isfactory and us efnl results will ulti-
mately be reached. With a highly sensi
tive plate manipulated in mitIalr objects on
the earth below may, perhaps, be photo
grapRed which could not be distinguished
fy the human eye. II this condition act
ually exists midnight kite photography
Will have wide military application. For
tifications and hostile camps could be
accurately pictured aud the condition of
an enemy become known TO a general w hose
foe need not know he was in the ne ghbor-
hood. The idea would be useful also in
tine of peace in photographing large as
sembiages, celebrations, nlultitudes OF
people or exhibitions.

also has been made special feature. and
some magnificent effects have been OBJ
tained by a lavishness almost unprece-
dented.
The Hanlons never do things by halves,
and their productions inthe memory OF the
present generation have been OF such
quality, and have had the appearance of
such lavish expenditure that patronage has
been practically assured in advance The
matinees will be on Wednesday and Sat

performance that appeal To the children as
well as the grown people, the opportunity

Mr.. Chevalier never is content TO hold up
the mirror TO bestiality, and the side of
the costcr that he portrays is wholly agree
able. He might picture to us drunken
brute, a wife-beater or a bully, rather
than the comInendable types he does ex-
hibit to us. 1t is this optimism which
helps him in his appeal for generous popu-
lar Endorsement. Mr.. Cheyaiier knows Ills
London like a book, but he did not go
down into the dregs OF humanity to find
the most miserable relict Of the coster-
monger to duplicate upon the stage. 1t
is sheer nonsense to suppose that all OF
our stage fu.persOnations are based upon
most careful Imitation of the real
Photographic fidelity is not always de-
sirable or possible, but there is none TO
question the accuracy of Mp. CheTalier's
coster counterfeit. 1t is his lima Sination
that imparts the best touch To his stage
people. The dialect he uses is the regular
cockney dialect.
