whose surrender OF life in holy
cause we this day commemorate.
How, exactly, the observance Of the
day arose is Svolyed in considerable
obscurity. but no doubt more than one
incident contributed to the celebra-
ton
One tradition has it that on the
breaking out Of the civil war a soldier
OF the German army came TO America
TO join the Northern army. with whose
cause he sympathized. and served
through the war. coming out unscath-
ed. At the close of the fratricidal
Idaho Springs siftings., 1904-05-28

strife. in visiting with other survivors
the graves of departed comrades in
arms. he remarked that il was Gus
tom in Germany to scatter flowers on
the graves of soldiers once a year.
The remark approved itself to sur
viving brothers in arms, friends and
relatives of the heroic dead. and flow
ers were strewn on the graves as to-
kens of loves tenderness and friend
ships esteem. We can readily under
stand that this was one of the Incl
dents in which Decoration Day origi-
mated.
But, indeed, in all ages and all eoun-
tries, flowers on the graves OF loved
ones have been the tributes OF affec-
ton OF the mourners by the narrow
tomb. But what made Memorial Day
SO characteristic as tribute TO the
dead was that certain day was set
apart for its observance, like the holy
days of the church. Indeed, this is
the way Saints days originated. The
anniversary OF martyrdom or death
was observed with certain rites and
ceremonies, and SO transmitted TO pos
terity. And 1t is in no way deroga-
tory to the crown of Christian mar
tyrdom to say our heroic dead were
a goodly company OF martyrs for coun-
try. liberty, altar, hearth. and home OF
this land of the free, where no slave
can live henceforward forever,
But not until 1868 was the day OF
commemoration definitely fixed. II ap-
pears that the idea originated with
Adjutant General N. P. Chipman. who
conferred with National Commander
John A. Logan, of the Grand Army OF
the Republic. then in its infancy,
the G. A. X. was organized AT
Springfield, ILL.,. by DIR. b. F. stephen
son early in 1860. suggesting that an
organization should be formed for the
purpose of spreading flowers upon the
graves Of the union soldiers in all the
states, or some particular day through
out the year. The object appealed 10

ance grew into national Importance
and took root in the great heart of
the people. II was felt that the word
Decoration" was of a too light and
festive a nature, and that an express

solemnity Of the occasion and the ma

Accordingly the word Memorial" was
selected as more fittingly expressive

the saviors Of the union the heart of

men who represent 80 per cent OF the
railroads having Chicago terminals, was
organized Nov. p and took over the
so 000. 600 company which has built 10

The deal is declared to mean the imme-
diate diversion OF traffic and freight from

of all newspapers for out-of town circula-
tion to the early trains through the tun-
nels; the transferring Of mail between the
main postoffice and the railroad stations,
and between railroads; for the letter boxes
