Gus Soldiers Get Great
Greeting.

With bands playing alternately the
patriotic airs of Great Britain and
the United States, the visiting sol
diers disambarked and were received
by the Boston Ancient, who turned
out for the occasion in full force. A
parade was formed and the visitors
were escorted to Faneiul hall, the ar
mory of the Ancient and Honorabes.
Here the first engagement is to be
fought this evening at an informal re-
ception and smoker. 1t will be merely
a preliminary skrmish, however, as
compared to the heavy engagements
to takep lace later in accordance with
the long program of the entertainment.
After several days spent in Boston the
visitors will take trip to New York,
West Point, Washington and Mount
Vernon. Later they will proceed to
Niagara falls, returning to Boston by

charter from Henry VIII. in 1887, and
for more 100 years was known as the
Fraternity or Guild of st. George. the

borne being conferred on it in 1885.
The Boston corps is an offshoot ct
the London organization, having been
founded in 1888 by Robert keene, a

came over in 1896. The Honorable
Artillery company is the only force
that can be called out by the sover-

Victoria the corps enjoys the distinc-
ton, in consideration of its antiquity,
of taking precedence in line of parade

The company numbers about 700 men,
divided into horse artillery, field bat
terry and infantry, and performs reg

BOSTON, Mass, Oct. 2.-In striking
contrast to the scene witnessed IN
Boston somewhat more than 100 years
ago, when the British evacuated the
city and the citizens f1outed them as
they went, was the right royal well

Honorable Artillery company of Lon
don, the oldest military organization
in the world and the pride of all Brit
ishers. The Ancient, under the COM

Boston as guests of the Ancient and
Honorable Artillery company of this
city. The trip is in return for the fra
ternal visit paid by the Boston organ

THREE MONTHS WAR
ON RATES is ENDED

1'he first official announcement that
the rate war between the lines run
ming between st. Paul and Chicago
and Omaha and Chicago was at an
end was received by the o. r. & N.
this morning in a letter to officials
of the line in this city.
For over three months this war
has been in effect. Lines which ira
versed the short route between these
points. owing to the stress of COM
petition and because they went the
shorter route. broke their agreement
with the systems which traversed the
long route and would reach the Windy
City in much better time. The agree
ment between these lines was that
they were to so regulate their run
ming schedule that they would arrive

in Chicago about the same time as
those traversing the long way around.
When the speed was first increased
the slow lines Immediately reduced
their fares and ever since that time
the war has gone merrily on. 1t is
now settled and the rate, which has
for long time stood at IS between
st. Paul or Omaha and Chicago, is
now back to the normal figure of
$11.50 from both points. This now
makes the rate from Spokane to the
metropolis on the lake $54 first class

the rate of $50 first class and $45

Eight-HOur Law.

 ing scale of wages was adopted to take effect under the eight-hour law in Yavapai county: Stopers, per day, g; trammers. $2.50: muckers, s; machine men, S3.5O: sinkers, $3.5G: timbermen, $3.50: drifting, @3.25: raising, $3.25: cross-cutting, $3.25; pumpmen, $3.50. The scale is below that in force under the present system. but it was thought it would be satisfactory to the miners. A telegram was received by the Yavapai union miners from the w.

A Box of Gid Coins Unearthed.

X box of coins supposed to have been buried by the Tories during the revo- lutionary period was recently unearthed hy laborcrs working on one of the eastern railroad, but as the coins were about two centuries old they would probably have 10 more value today than many Of the remedies compound ed for stomach, liver and bowel disOrd- CTS. It is therefore necessary, if you want to recover your health, to be careful in the selection of a medicine that will restore the appetite, purify the blood, and cure headache, indiges- tion, dyspepsia. constipation or liver and kidney troubles. You will make no mistake if you try Hostetter's Stomach Bitlers because it will posi- lively cure these diseases. Hundreds of people have voluntarily testified to this fact during the past fifty years.

A Queer Gem.

Among the many strange things found in the Philippines are bamboo opals. vegetable gems which are Occa- sionally found in the stem of the bam- boo. Not one piece of bamboo in a thousand contains one of these gems, for there, as elsewhere, the bamboo is usually empty. Accident, however, sometimes brings to light a small. flint like su bstance in the stem of the bam- boo which has just the appearance of the real opal. These growths are called by the natives tabacur, and some of them reproduce the characteristics Of the opal so perfectly that even ex- perts may we'll be puzzled to detect them from the real gem.

EARLY FRUITS.

In a literal sense, figs may be raised here for the millions of people in the United States. Figs shipped to San Francisco in April and May brought over S1.00 per pound. The grower can safely count on realizing ten cents a pound for all the early figs he can put on the market. Two hundred and fifty to five hundred dollars per acre would not be fabulous estimate, after the trees are four years old.

MEMORIAL DAY
The Nations Dead Sleep Beneath a
 Wilderness of Flowers.

Of all occasions upon which the American people lay aside business cares and unite in the common observ- ance of a national holiday none carries with it a deeper significance than Memorial Day. As the ranks of the surviving brave defenders grow thin ner year by year, the gratitude of united peOple-east, west, north and south-grows stronger as they realize more clearly their duty and obligation to the living as well as to the departed heroes.
 Each recurring Memorial day brings added proof of the effacement Of the cruel war memories, and in their stead has come mingling of 'the blue and the gray" who pay loving tribute to their departed comrades who fought on either side And on the night of the revered Memorial Day the soldier dead sleep beneath wilderness Of flowers The beautiful custom of placing flowers on the graves of the dead, though unaccompanied by ritual or ceremony, embodies deeper senti- ment than the most eloquent words could convey.

 Under command of Major r. g. Ingalls,. The procession moved up Main street to Third, thence to Madison avenue, and on to the Protestant cemetery. The ceremonies here were simple, and be- ing so, were the more impressive and beautiful. Several eX-Confederate sol diers were in the procession and also participated in the strewing of flowers on the graves. Though q few graves were unmarked, and formed the earth ly sepulchre of unknown dead, none was overlooked, and each received it's tribute of choicest blossoms.
 Following this loving tribute a three volley salute was fired by O. H in honor of the soldier dead.
 The procession then moved up Or ange avenue to the new cemetery On the hill, where flowers were placed on the graves. after which the military salute was repeated by Go.

Miss Dobson will doubtless be more careful in the future when she takes a drink in the dark.
