ON DECORATION DAY
1T WAS GIVEN PROPER oBsERv.
ANcE IN ATHENA.
Memorial Sermon Sunday Gettys-
burg Post G. A. R. Decorated
Comrades Graves.

AT the M. f. church Sunday morning
Rev. W. E. Armtield preached the me-
mortal sermon to the soldier dead of the
nation. A large congregation was pres
ent, including many old soldiers. Mr..
Armtield was eloquent in memorializing
the heroes who died on the altar Of free
dom for home and country. He made
lifting remarks to the memory Of old
soldiers who have departed from the
ranks OF the local post, and in general,
his sermon was appropriate to the oc-
casion.
Memorial Day was appropriately OBJ
served yesterday by Gettysburg Post,
GA. r., in Athena. Only few vet
erans could be mustered, but these,
with large number Of friends assem-
bled early and at 10 a. m. proceeded to
the cemetery, bearing flowers and flags
for the decoration of the graves Of com
rades and friends. At2 p. m. exercises
OF most interesting nature were held
at the M. E. church, which were de.
serving of the attention of much larger
audience than that which was present.
The program had been carefully pre-.
pared and was most interesting through
out. The exercises opened with trio.
by Mesdames Foss and Wright and Miss
Gholson, followed with prayer by Rev.
j. W. Jenkins. Rev Armheld read with
feeling Lincoln's address at Gettysburg,
after which Prof. George b. Marquis
delivered in words glowing with feelings
OF patriotism and with love and respect
for the old soldiers, the principal adj
dress of the day. A song by a ladies'
quartet, consisting Of Mrs. M. w. Smith,
Mrs. Henry Wright, Miss Maud Ghol-
son and Mrs. A, A. Foss, followed, the
parts being taken in the order named.
with Prof. Henry as accompanist. s..
Pennick gave short but eloquent trib-
ute to the Grand Army OF the Republic,
and another number was given by the
quartet. Rev. Jenkins made short
address, and this was followed by
vocal solo by Mr.. Pennlck which was
greatly appreciated by the audience.
The exercises were presided over by
j. II. Hiteman, who closed by asking
the entire audience to join in the sing
ing OF the National hymn, America"

Before Large Audience.

Reproduced Second Time In Athena
Before Large Audience.
The popullr play, "My Friend From
India" was reproduced for the second
time in Athena before an audience that
packed the opera house to the doors.
The production was in the hands of
the same cast that appeared before, and
was directed by Mr.. Harry Du Puy.
Every member Of the company, indi-
vidually and collectively, appeared to
the best advantage, and the character
protrayals was on par with profession
ais. M
1t is hoped that this is not to 5e the
last appearance Of the talented anna
teurs, and the Press offers the suggest
ion, in view of the fact that Athena
takes great interest in amateur theatric.
ais, that local dramatic association bo
formed with the object OF presenting
plays from time to time.

BEATHE HAS NOT BEEN EN-
PLOYED FOR MONTHS.
System of Road Making Is Now IN
der the Old System List
ofsupervisors.

In response to the issue raised by Mr..
Bean, republican candidate for county
Judge, through the Tribune for return
70 the old system of road making, the
PRESS will state that the old system is
now in force and has been for months.
Mr.. Beathe, of Weston, who for
time was county road superintendent
under provisions of the new law was not
reappointed to the position this year,
and has been operating his chop mill at
Weston, and has not been overseeing
county roads as the Tribune would have
the public believe.

in road making are touched by the fol-
lowing authentic list of district road
supervisors aud not county road
master. The list follows and is com.

CALIFORNIAN PICNIC
A SPLENDID AFFAIR
Features Of Program Were MANY and
Attendance Was Large---Two
Days of Entertainment

With weather conditions most favor,
able, the Caledonians of the Umatilla
County Caledonian Society had the best
picnic yet given in the annual series.
1t was easily to be seen that all antici-
pated this would be an event long to be
remembered, for every face wore smile
of satisfaction. The president, Dr. Bot
kin, was the recipient of many encom-
iums OF praise for his management of the
picnic, which together with the harmon
ious cooperation Of the various commit
tees and thegenerous support of the bus
mess men, is largely due the unbounded
success of this years festivities.
The exercises were opened with few
brief remarks by President Botkin, who
was followed by Mayor Taylor in his ad-
dress of welcome. M. Muir Pickin, of
Portland, delivered the annual address.
Mr.. Pickin is close friend of Hon. Geo.
Cameron, who..atHths last moment was
detained from coming, and is a man of
learning and ability. His address was
gwen without the least preparation, yet
his remarks were to the point and he
won the admiration of all. DR.. Cole of
Pendleton, delivered mastery address.
Touching on the characteristics of the
Scotch people as he did, he made all
who were Scots, feel proud of it. Rev.
Armteld delivered an address in his US
ual glowing manner, and was greeted
with much applause. Interspersed with
these addresses we're many fine features,
such as music by the band, songs by
Master Hales, Mrs. M. w. Smith, and
the dancing by the Portland Caledonians
who were in attendance.
On Friday evening the pleasing melo.
drama, "My Friend From India" was
given at the opera house by the anna
teur theatrical troupe of Athena young
people, to large and appreciative
audience.
The crowd on Saturday was much
larger than the previous day, being
augmented by people from Walla Walla
and Pendleton and surrounding country,
and is estimated to have been fully 5000.
A noteworthy feature is the fact that
with this vast crowd there was no dis
turbance. No occasion for appeal to
the marshal in maintaining order. Ger
tainly no more decorous throng has ever
gathered on the streets of Athena.
Another fact which is very gratifying
was the almost entire absence Of the
"grafter," !" there being but one notable
example of the "critter" on the grounds.
Saturdays program was replete with
very worthy numbers, notable among
which were addresses by Col. j. Fl.
Raley and Will M. Peterson, both of
whom were listened to with marked at
tention and both received we'll merited
applause. The graceful dancing Of the
Misses Forbes, Sharp, Pottage and
Zipsy, and Masters McCormac, King
and DeArcy, Of Portland, and Willis
Hales Of Walla Walla, won many
hearty recall, and it was then that the
advantage of having raised seats was
fully demonstrated.
The program Of the afternoon was en-
riched with many pleasing musical num-

bers, among those worthy of special
mention being "Annie Laurie" by Mrs.
NJ. w. Smith, and the beautiful bass
solo, Sailing" by Jos. N. Scott. Both
singers responded to rouslng encore.
The concert Saturday evening at the
pera house was brilliant success in
every respect, the program OF which
was the best of the three, and from the
opening piece until the singing of ''Auld
I Lang Syne," there was not moment
In which the audience was not enter
tanned. The program was opened with
a Scottish reel, after which d. @. Kirk
gave very pleasing address on the life,
character and execution of Mary,
Queen of Scots. Miss Forbes Span
ish dance was the occasion of uproarious
applause to which she very gracefully
responded. The music for this dance
was furnished by Prof. Henry, violin;
b. f. Scott, clarionet, and Fred Ruble
piano. The piano selections by Mrs. j.
D. Plamondon aud Miss Maude Ghol-
son were very pleasing and earned rous-
ing applause. Miss Garfield was in
splendid voice and her rendition of
"Annie Laurie" was one of the soul
stirring numbers, and gained for her
splendid recall to which she responded
with the sweet old ballad, "Comin'
Thro' the Rye" Mr.. los. N. Scott was
the next singer, and his Interpretation Of
the beautiful song, "When the Wind
Blows the Gale" brought such a we'll
earned encore that peace was restored
only when he again appeared on the
stage. Mrs. M. w. Smith charmed the
audience with her rich soprano and won
her way into the hearts of all by her
sweet singing of that sweetest of old
Scotch ballads, "Loch Lomond," which
elected hearty encore, to which she
responded with "In the Valley When
the Blue Birds Sing" "Blue Bells Of
Scotland" by the High School quartet,
was a very pretty number and scored
another success for these we'll known
young ladies. The applause which they
received was only stilled upon their re-
appearance, when they gave with equal
effect the pretty song, "Bedelia."
Mrs. frankie McIntyre's interpreta-
ton of "Bairnies Coodle Doun," was
the occasion for storms of applause and
proved her remarkable ability as an
She gave as an encore,
"Sandy's Romance with equal effect.
"Bonnie Sweet Bessie, (" sung as quar-
tet by Mesdames Smith and Foss and
Messrs. Botkin and Worthington, was
very pleasing number, which elected
we'll deserved recall. Master Willis
Hales sang several numbers with charm
ing effect, those deserving especial men
ton being "0ver the Ocean Blue" and
1.-The Holy City," Miss Mysie Sharp
gave the sword dance with that inimit-
able grace and manner which never fails
to make the spectators her admirers.
The Sailors Hornpipe, by Frank
Darcy and Willie Mccormick was such
as to give them a rousing recall, to
which they responded. Sergeant Moon
was at his best with the pipes and was
ever ready to respond when called upon.
