who is a retired brigadier general OF

To the People of Minneapolis:
While the decorations committee
has rome what its funds would
permit in the way of giving well
coming appearance to public build
ings and the downtown district,
there Is still great opportunity
for more general display Of the
national colors and appropriate
decorations. Some business houses
as yet show no sign that the man
agement is glad TO greet the vet
erans of the G.. A. R. Many resi-
dences do not even display the ma
tional flag. This is 9, time when
the whole city should be in gala
dress thruout its confines. Our
guests may not be critical, but they
are at least appreciat1ve. The flag
should be everywhere, and for the
organization which I represent I
urgently request every loyal citi-
zen Of Minneapolis to see to it that
the national colors in some form ap-
pear on his residence and place Of
business not later than Monday
morning. "A. B. Ohamberlin,

r ELECTRIC LIGHTS EFFECTIVE
Big Stores Do Themselves Proud IN
Novel Effects.

The throngs Of visitors that will be
on the streets Of Minneapolis every
evening of encampment week will lind
much to admire in the night illumlna-
tions that have been planned in honor
of the Grand Army. Thousands of eloc-
trio lights of every variety flash forth
a welcome to the visitors in every part
of the downtown district. Everything
is bright as day and for effective dis
plays several of the surprises prepared
by Minneapolis merchants will eclipse
anything seen elsewhere.
Much of the illumination was on last
night. At Sixth street and Nicollet ave
nue. a crowd stood for hours watching
the display Of the Glass Block. Every
window and every line Of the building
is outlined with colored electric lights
that beam and blaze. On the main cor
ner of the building are the enormous
set pieces. At the top is a huge Ameri-
can flag in colored electric lights. This
piece is most effective. The blazing
floating on gentle breeze. Below the
flag is huge G. A. R. illumination in
red, white and blue. At the bottom is
another beautiful set design in lights
of the G. A. R. badge. From the corner
tower project the muzzles of four can
non. From time to time a salute is
fred and the smoke from the muzzles
Of the cannons gently floats away over
the bright blazing building.
The Powers store has an effective dis
play in set pieces, one over the Nlcollet
avenue entrance and another on Fifth
street. The designs appeal especially
( to veterans and are martial in charac-
ter. The Nicollet avenue design is a
battlefield surmounted by an enormous
ade Of red, white and blue. On Fifth
street is a mammoth canteen inscribed
with the motto eve drank from the
same canteen.' Below is humorous
design of General Bean armed with a
spoon making a charge on the bean
The New England, Plymouth, syndi-
cate and Minneapolis Drygoods block
is surrounded with wall of
lights. The plan for individual illu-
mination has been carried into effect
around this block and the entire square
Is brilliantly lighted. The banners of
the twenty-nine army corps Of the
Grand Army float from the lights of
the New England company.
Other illuminations and decorations
are ready all over the city. The build
ing of the Minneapolis General Electric
company on Fifth street will be out
lined with electric lights with a set de-
lights in the outside offices of the An
drus building will burn every evening
until midnight, throwing their light
thru the open windows. In the lower
end Of town, particularly on Washing

Third avenue s, there has been ,consid
! erable decorating. Three "Welcome'
] signs to be illuminated at night have
/ been hung. One is in Bridge square
and the others at Third avenue n anc

Much was done today in placing dec

States Volunteers, OF Boston. regarding
the case Of John j. Bowes. the former

has been denied a landing at Boston.
where he arrived from Ireland on the
10th instant.
The papers were sent TO the Depart
ment OF Commerce and Labor late yester-
day afternoon and Secretary Metcalf at
once replied that the man has not been
denied a landing. hut that action on his
case simply. had been deferred pending
the outcome OF the efforts being made to
place Bowes i'm a national soldiers home
General Martin Mcmahon, president OF
the board OF managers OF National Homes
for Disabled Volunteer Soldiers now has
the case in hand. and Bowes, in the near
time. has been made comfortable at the
immigrant station at Boston. President
Roosevelt wired in reply to the telegram
the substance OF Secretary Metcalfs re-
port. No doubt Is felt here that Bowes
will be cared for in some national home.
