Maine Memorial Services.

On Wednesday evening the court room was crowded with she audience which assembled to do honor to the memry of the sailors who perished in the Maine disaster year ago. At the hour for opening the services the guests of honor for the evening, six of fiagstaf's quota to the Rough Rider regiment, clad in uniform and escorted oy the G. A. R. and members of Co. I, entered the hall and were greeted with hearty round of applause.
 Capt. c. w. Glowner, the chairman or the meeting, stated its object in a few well chosen sentences, and closed with an earnest word of praise for the lst Volunteer Cavalry in general and the Arizona companies in particular. The Star Spangled Banner was then sung by a chorus made up from the choirs of the churches, prayer was onered by Rev. George Logic Of the Presbyterian church and at its close a memorial hymn sung by the chorus. Rev. F. billy of the Catholic church was then introduced, an gave an elo- quent address in which he eulogized the gallant tars who went down at their posts on board the Maine, and paid glowing tribute to the courage and pa- triotism of the soldiers and sailors who won success for American arms. His words to the members of the Rough Riders were especially appropriate and called forth round after round of ap- plause from the audience. After a selection by the orchestra, Rev. J. M. Baxter of the NJ. E. church was pre- sented as the closing speaker, and gave rousing talk, brimful of patriotism and "expansion." America was then sung by the audience led by the chorus and orchestra, and with cheers for the Rough Riders, and handshaking all around. the meeting dispersed.
