AT GETTYSBURG.
Memorial Day Observed With the
Usual Ceremonies.

GETTYSBURG Pa.), May Bone
mortal Day was observed at the Ma
tiopal Cemetery here with the usual
elaborate ceremonies, and the graves of
fallen heroes were decorated by school
children and veteran soldiers of the
civil war.
In the parade Pennsylvania volun-
teers who served during the war with
Spain marched as an escort to the G. A.
r. Between the columns of young and
the old veterans rode Major General D.
M. Sickles and Congressman Zeigler of
this district. A number of civic or
CARNATIONS also took part. The band
from the Carlisle Indian School fur
nished the music.
The weather was delightful and the
ceremonies were attended by an unusu-
ally large crowd.
The principal speaker was the Hon.
D. D. Woodmansee of Cincinnati. He
referred to the Spanish war, and said
the question of law and order and the
exclusion of those elements of society
not up to our standard of manhood and
womanhood was more important than
whether the Philippines shall be ours.
Touching upon the evidences of re-
united country, he said: 1--WE are re-
united country, ready to do battle to-
gether for our country's flag"

IN THE PHILIPPINES.
Impressive Services at the Graves
of Fallen Soldiers

MANILA, May 80, 7:3O p. m.-Mem-
orial Day was celebrated at Battery
Knoll, where Scott's guns were planted
against the Filipino trenches in the
first days fighting at Manila Nearly
3OO soldiers lie buried there on a bleak
mound, surrounded by rice fields rough
boards marking the graves, which are
ranged in five unbroken rows Beyond
these are Spanish bIockhouses and bam-
boo hedges, which We're mown by shells
from the American guns.
The few soldiers who could be spared
from the trenches came to Battery
Knoll dusty and bronzed, bearing flow
ers with which to strew their comrades
graves. A silk flag was placed above
each mound.
The day was as mild as New Eng
land spring day, when, just before sun
set few hundred Americans gathered
in circle around Battery Knoll in blue
and brown uniforms Among the SOL
diers We're groups of American ladies'
and brown-faced natives peering curl
oUSly at the unwonted spectacle from
points near by. The guns of the mon
ftor Monadnock, bombarding Paranuua
doomed significant reminder Of the
nearness OF war. Just as the Sixth Ar
ti!lery Band began a dirge, the thun-
der of the Monadnocks guns ceased.
While taps sounded from the bugle.
Colonel Charles DENLY, of the United
States Philippine Commission, presided
at the exercises. He spoke briefly of
the peculiar solennity of the day to
Manila. The Chaplain of the British
cruiser Powerful made an invocation
Chaplain Pierce of the Twenty-thir
Infantry and Chaplain Cressey of the
Minnesota Volunteers, delivered ora
tons, and the soldiers sang appropriate
hymns.
After the taps had been sounded the
soldiers took the flags from the grounds
to send to relatives of the dead.
Similar ceremonies We're held over the
dead in Pace Cemetery this afternoon.
Colonel DENLY was the orator on this
occasion. The graves We're decorated
with vast quantity of magnificent
flowers. High mass for the dead of the
Roman Catholic communion was cele-
DRAFTED at the Pace Cemetery in the
morning. OratiOns We're delivered by
Fathers McKinnon and Chaplain Stew
enson of the Idaho Regiment, Metho-
dist and Peter Mcqueen, a Congrega-
tional clergyman of Boston.
Most of the business places in Manila
were closed in observance of the day.
The American and many foreign flags
We're displayed at half-mast. The
graves of soldiers and sailors buried at
Cavite and Iloilo were also decorated
to-day.

A cable dispatch from Paris was
printed in the United States on Sunday
last in which it was stated that Pade
rewski was secretly married last De-
cember. Confirmation of the statement
was given in the fact that Madame
Gorski when in Geneva recently, regis
tered at the Casino as Elena Paderew-
ski The dispatch added that Pade-
rewski, who has been a widower for
several years was attracted to Madame
Gorski by reason of her Kindness to-
ward his invalid son. The story went
on to say that Madame Gorski and
Paderewski were living quietly in Paris
together awaiting the Pope's dispersal
ton before having an ecclesiastical
marriage This dispensation, however,
was said to be unnecessary, as the
lady's marriage to Gorsd was Illegal,
having been without the consent of
parents as the Polish laws require.

serted that it was the work of Major
Esterhazy
The court adjourned at o'clock with
