MEMORIAL
EXERCISES.
The Day was Fitting1y Oh
served in Wadsworth.

Memorial Day was fittingly observed
by the citizens of Wadsworth. A
large crowd Of people assembled at the
school house at three o'clock Saturday
afternoon to participate in the beauti
full custom of honoring the dead.
A seat of honor was reserved for the
members of the G. A. r. They were
but seven in number.
The ranks of the "old boys" are
rapidly thinning. A few years more
and there will be no brother soldiers
left to perform the beautiful ceremony
Of flowers and tears. But the mean
ing of the scope of the day has Widened
and extended until no longer confined
to the heros of our wars, 1t means a
day devoted to memory and the ex
altation of the dead. The members of
the C. A. r. may not be with US long.
but the memory of their deeds cf
heroism, the suffering and privations
they endured to preserve the unity of
our country, will be called viyidly to
mind on each day Of decoration, when
we cover their graves with the flowers
they loved.
After a prayer by Rev. T. L. Bellam
and song by the school, Prof. G. A.
Leavitt delivered an address on the
origin and growth Of the idea of day
of decoration. His remarks were
extemporaneous and we'll chosen and
appropriate for the occasion.
"A Call to Arms" was then rend-
cred by the school after which Rev.
T. l.. Bellam made brief address.
The beautiful lesson conveyed in his
words made deep impression on his
hearers.
All present then joined in singing our
national hymn, America, after
which the march to the cemetery was
taken up.
AS the procession filed through the
gate each person was presented with
a bouquet Of flowers. The line OF
march was much longer than was ex-
pected. The members of the B. OF
L. F. marched to the cemetery In a
body, attred in the full regalia OF that
order. With them marched the mem
bers of the Ladies' Society.
AT the cemetery the flowers were
strewn on the graves and not one was
overlooked.
That the day was publicly observed
was due wholly to the efforts of Rev.
T. L. Bellam and Prof. G. A. Leavitt.
Their patriotism is to be commended.

couple of days In camp cleaning
necessary information for the changes

Just what these may be has not been
fully decided as yet; but the manage

something elaborate and of permanency
SO far as regards the handling and
treatment OF ores.
The fact that Ira Miller, president
and general manager Of this company.
is man of wide experience, being
heavily interested in large milling
plants for the treatment of low grade
ore in Nova Scotia. the same being
successfully operated, ought to be evil
dence of our good fortune in having
him with us in our labor of develop
ment Of the mines of this district.
Jim Kennedy Of Reno, was in camp
Sunday and after taking in several of
the mines concludee to become intel
ested in property here, and is now
associated with Ed Cline and Hugh
Hutchinson the trio being composed Of
Colorado men, who believe that there
is more in acts than words hence we
look for good results in upper Tiger
canyon where the practica! miner has
fully explored the now promising prop
erty held by them All we need If a
few more Of the ''creek" boys and
"Sumthin'll be doin.
r. J. Hamilton will erect black
smith shop in the canyon this week.

An Extraordinary Country.

Louis Sherry, tho caterer, tells an
amusing story Of a chef whom he
brought over from France. The
chef before his contract with Shor-
ry began lived in idlcncss for a
month in Brooklyn. During the
month he walked all over BROOKLYN,
and he dined all over it as we'll.
What impressed him was tho multi
tudc of churches that he saw and
the uniformity with which every
thing he ate was served with melt
cd butter dressing. At the months
end, when he reported for duty, Mr..
Sherry said to him:
"Well, Alphonsc, you have had y
month to look about you. What do
you think of America 2"
1t is an extraordinary country
Alphonse answered. "It has twcnts
religions and only one saucc."--
