THE VETERANS.

Slowly, with lessened numbers,
 More garlands they bear each year To the graves of the sleeping soldiers, That are wet with many a tear Each time they meet together More solemn the duty grows, As marching behind the "Old Flag" The veteran army goes. But not as they marched in their valor, When they met and vanquished the foe, But with garlands of love and honor To the graves of their comrades they go And the hearts of all the nation Go with that valiant band With the fathers and husbands and brothers, Who fought for our blessed land. They fought in their youth and manhood, They counted not their lives, And kissed, before going to battle, The pictures of sweethearts and wives. Of all that mighty army,
 or our loved ones who marched away, Is only handful of veterans
 Who deck their graves to-day. Though they answer not to the roll-call, And we hear not the sound of their feet, We know they are with their comrades As they march along the street. In the " Heavenly Ranks" they are watching Ger the land they held so dear, And see the Old Flag 3 waving That all nations on earth revere. Then tenderly gather the flowers That grow on our own free land, And send to the dear old veterans To deck the sleeping band.

Some One Who Can Adjust the Strike
 Differences in Waterbury.
 Forepaugh & Sells Bros circus at tracted large crowds at the afternoon and evening performances yesterday and got out of town this morning in good shape for Hartford. The man. agers settled T couple of claims for damages presented, against them ill this city, one from Albert Dunn of Waterbury and the other from Mrs Barbara Cam of New York. Consid- ering the number of fpeople that were on the streets there was little dissipa- ton and no disturbances worth men, tioning. The members of the police department notably Detective Cahey, were on the lookout, for anything that might turn up, and no doubt this had something to do in the way of main- taining order and deterring any long fingered fellows that might have come into town withNthe circus from plying their game to good advantage. But Waterbury Is a peaceable town, any way, and i'll consequence hilarious people that float in on festive days catch on to the character and endeay- or to emulate the conduct of those they find here ahead of them. If we
 
 the men back at their old jobs, every thing would be all right. Some dis interested parties should step i'll and see what can be done in the way of adjusting the difference between the manufacturers and the toolmakers and machinists. Who knows but both sides would be willing to yield little in case such a proposition should be made by some man or body of men outside the strikers and their employ CTS in whom both parties and the pub- lie have implicit faith? Nothing can be lost by trying it.
 Have you ever noticed two men glaring at each other, both ready to reach for the others throat, and yet neither too anxious to strike the first blow, but apparently wishing that some onlooker would come up and set tie the matter before the thing reach ed q crisis?
 In certain sense, the attitude of the bosses and their men occupy a similar position towards each other, and it might be a kindly act for the peacemaker to come around. ask the contending clements to lay down their arms and talk the subject over. This | is q good day to consider such solu-. ton of the question, too. It is Deco ration day, and everybody is in q re- flectiye, peaceful mood, thinking of our great country and the men who l made it what it is. so that any one who thinks he can bring about bet l ter understanding between the men who are out and their employers. should feel in duty bound to do it. and whether he succeeds or not. all will give him due credit for his good in- 1 tentions.

Colonel Burpee was speaker at the Memorial day exercises in Watertown to-day.
 The weather was threatening during the greater part of the forenoon but at noon it frightened up and the rest Of the day was pleasant overhead.
 The drum corps rendered excellent music to-day and prompted lovers of good music who had come into town to remark that Waterbury is full of fine musicians.
 The Sons of Veterans and Spanish American war veteraAs made an ex- cellent showing to-day and performed valuable service to Wadhams post in decorating the graves.
 Old Glory was in evidence inss all parts of the town to-day, in the fac tories, the stores, private residences, public buildings and many donned in- signias of the National emblem on their coat collars.
 The old veterans are thinning out and in the natural order of things a few years more will leave the number so few that one can count them on his finger ends. Still many of them are wonderfully well preserved and if the occasion demanded the effort they could handle the rifle to as good advan- tage to-day as they did from '61 to '65.
 The Waterbury Military band pass ed up Bank street this afternoon play ing .sAdeste Fidelis," with a member of the band meantime smoking q cigar. The cigar looked very much out of place and the musician can thank his stars that he WIS not in charge of some of the old-time band leaders. He would know better than |. smoke while on parade if he was. What would the veterans, the Sons of Veterans and the Spanish-American war heroes do were it not for the good offices of the Women's Relief corps? They made everybody happy at head quarters. The coffee and other things which they set before the sterner sex showed unmistakable evidence of skiIful handling and to the credit of all who partook of the feast be it said that they showed they know a good thing when they see it and partook of the delicacies in a manner that delight ed the walters.
 While the Mattatuck drum corps was playing on East Main street this Just Oi1 a young man drove along behind a spirited horse, and as the team was passing by the musicians q young fel- low bumped against the animal and was thrown to the ground, narrowly escaping coming ungnr the horses hoofs. The animal bounded away, but the driver soon got him under control and returned to see what damage had been done, but no one appeared to pre- sent charge against him. The fellow was not injured, but he had close call
 The cemeteries never looked prettier than they did this informing. The steady rain of the past week helped vegetation so that the trees and flow CTS were as yerdant as they usually are much later in dry seasons. In ad- dition to the decorating done by the G. 4. R. many looked after the graves of their own families and in conse- quence the cemeteries are practically strewn with springs choicest gifts l and present q cheerful appearance. 1t is hoped that no one will be so base as to desecrate the graves by removing the tokens that have been reyerently placed upon them by loving hands.

ously they sprang to their feet, more than a thousand strong, and the old southern battle cry made the lofty arch es ring again Side by side with them stood the northern hosts and cheered with them Again and again the men of the south broke forth as the gay measures awoke their enthusiasm.
