THE FORGOTTEN GRAVE.

Out from the city's great roar
You wandered through the open door.
Paused at little pail and spade
Across tiny hllock laid;
Then noted on your dexter side
Some moneyed magnates 'rove or pride, -
And so, beyond a hawthorn tree.
Showering its rain of rosy bloom
Alike on low and lofty tomb
You came upon it suddenly.
How strange! The very grasses growth
Around it seemed forlorn and loath;
The very ivy seemed to turn
Askance that wreathed The neighbor urn.
sunk was the slab, the head declined
And left the rails wreck behind.
No name. You traced 49," a.
Part of "atfltction" and of heaven"
And then--oh, irony, austere!-
You read in letters sharp and clear.
Though lost to sight, to memory dear"

AFTERNOON CELEBRATION,
How Honors We're Paid to Individual
Soldiers During the Day


The real reception of the volunteers
came in the afternoon following the
luncheon. 1T was scene that will
live in Anaconda's history.
Blue coated, brown-leggined soldiers
We're all about the streets and around
each one was an eager group listen
ing to stories of the war Here and
there would be seen a bronZed and
bearded volunteer holding a glad-faced
boy by his hand. while a woman with
a look of supreme content would be
walking by his side And the smooth
faced young solders-they We're in
their glory, but they did not last long
on the streets. Each had five or six
girls about him so long as he was Wis
able, then he disappeared and the girls
all disappeared with him.
A pavement of burned red paper on
Main street marks the progress of the
celebration of the afternoon. Enthusi-

Bombs and giant crackers were num-

drop upon it heavy iron weight A
crashing explosion would result.

from Montana until your return your
every move has been watched with
deepest interest, so far as telegraphic
and mail news told us of your doings;
and while you were on the firing line in
Luzon, with battle imminent, and par
tlcularly while you were in front of Ca
loocan, the Office of the Standard was
besieged, sometimes far into the night,
by anxious fathers and brothers and
other friends asking for the latest news
about the LIST Montana. And as the
news came, always praising the gallant
dash and bravery of the Montana boys,
you may imagine the thrills of joy and
pride your, friends experienced and
showed, quickly tempered by a dread
and fear lest your gallantry might have
cost the lives of some near and dear
friends.
ITO those of you who have returned
to home and friends. the citizens of An

Gus welcome, and have accorded to each

Informally greet your friends, and,
knowing this, 1 shall only detain you

"In extending to you the freedom of
the city, the mayor, Mr. Madden, and
all the citizens want it distinctly un-
derstood that the police force has been
disbanded, the city ordinances have
been suspended and the town belongs to
you--and we trust each of you may be
able to say with the poet:
I'm with you once again, my friends,
No more my footsteps roam:
My journey ends where it began,
Amid the scenes of home.
No other cline has skies so blue.
Or streams so wide and clear:
And where are hearts so warm and true
AS those that meet me here"
This concluded the formal ceremonies
The briefness of the speeches was ac-
ceptable to all and their warmth thor
oughly appreciated. After some cheer
ing Captain Dillon managed to get the
volunteers formed in the dense crowd,
after a fashion, and marched them
away to the luncheon at Turner hail.

SHOPPING IN JAPAN,
Great Deliberation Marks All -Busines
% Transactions.


Toxic Correspondence of the Baltimore
Sun.
Japanese are very fond of strolling
through their bazars. You enter at one
door and leave by another Goods for
sale are displayed on each side of aisles
that wind through the length of the shop.
Passing up and down these aisles they
lead you to the second, and often third,
story of the building. then back again
through different aisles. causing you to
travel the length of the establishment
way a few feet distant, but even then
you must travel this maze several times
its length to escape.
Usually shopping is very restful in
Japan. You sit around on the floor. and
in some shops they bring you cups of tea
to sip and "hibachf' from which you
light your pipe.
Time is of no consequence to the ORR
entails, nor are they eager to sell. Their
ideas of trade are very peculiar. You are
compelled to ask them whether you can
see articles after their stating that they
have them in the store. Ten pieces of an
article sometimes cost twelve times the
cost of one. They will not sell a hundred
at less rate, but insist on your paying
extra because of the large quantity de-
sired. They frankly tell you their price
to Japanese customers, and then that for
eigners have to pay about so or 100 per
cent. more, and laugh.
In the largest dry goods store in Toxic
so clerks are seen kneeling upon the floor
of the large building, but no merchandise
Is visible. 1t Is kept in fireproof 90 struc-
lures in the rear and carried to and fro
for customers inspection by numerous
boys. 1t is very interesting to watch
proceedings in such a store.
Nearly all Japanese stores are conduct
ed in the same manner, though some
shops have on display samples of articles
sold. If a foreign lady Is shopping crowd
of Japanese usually blockade the store.
anxious to see the strange sight. Prepara-
tory to the new treaties going into effect
the government issued an order for the
natives to abandon this obstructive habit.
The Japanese are great imitators. AL
most every staple article has its imitation
here and it's label counterfeited. A Phila-
delphia shoe backing has half a dozen
limitations. One maker inserts his name.
leaving North Front street, Philadelphia,
remaining, and the label unchanged. ex-
cept superior quality is superior quar-
ity." Another inserts his name and Jan
anese town, but leaves "133 and 146 North
Front street." and SO on.
The Japanese make heroic efforts at
English. While butchering 1t horribly,
they do remarkably well, considering ev-
erything. On the few English signs of
leading firms on Tokio's chief street are
seen: DRUGGIST" for druggist foreign
cords, ''caned goods. wholesale and de-
tail, The shop of the articles of
hnery.' The carriage and all of har-
ness, and "A harness maker" manu-
faktealary,' "apothekaly," etc.

The boys then spent As minutes cat
ing the good things that had been pro-
yided for them-oyster soup, several
different kinds of meat, ice cream,
cake, tea and coffee. The menu was
very good one, for at the conclusion Of
the lunch the unanimous verdict Of the
boys was that the meal was the best
that they had partaken- of since they
had left home.
During the lunch Captain Kelly of
Anaconda was introduced to the
guests. Addressing the officers and
members of Companies K and M, ne
said:
Gentlemen, I have been asked by
the ladies of the refreshment commit
tee to extend to you their heartiest
greetings on the occasion of your re-
turn home. They told me to tell you
that they were proud of the men who
figured so prominently in the battles
Caloocan and San Fernando. They
are proud of the boys who stood on the
firing line and who knew not the
meaning of the word fear. The ladies
welcome you home and that you may
live long and prosper among them is
their sincere wish. Thank you for
your attention"
The ladies We're then heartily cheer
ed. after which came cheers for the Of
