Memorial Day Appropriately
Observed n Julssburs.

In spite Of the inclement weather
Memorial day was observed in Jules
burg in fitting manner. Ia the
forenoon the school children gathered
At the school house and the veterans
at the court house TO prepare for the
parade. The parade, headed by the
band, marched through the streets,
and At the rsilr.sd tracks they were
taken in carriages to the cemetery,
where exercises we're held and the
soldiers graves strewn with flowers.
In the afternoon large crowd gath.
cred At the opera house where the
principal address was delivered by
Judge Hastings of Grant, Nebraska.
The address was we'll received and
was frequently punctured with ap-
plsuse. The speaker extolled the
principles for which the Union SOL
diers fought-the principles OF free
labor and free men.
Free labor" said the speaker, is
founded on the principle that labor is
honorable, while slavery is founded on
the principle that labor is dishonor-
able and mean. These two principles
are SO incompatible and irreconsil-
able that war was the inevitable re-
suit. l hold no grudge against the
confederate soldier for fighting for
what he honestly believed were his
rights. can forgive the south for all
except AndersOnville. The veterans
who are spared to US offered just as
much as those who fell. 1t is to their
efforts that we have country, na-
tiOn and flag"
Excellent music was furnish he'd by
the band, the male quartet and the
choir. The five minute talks by the
veterans present was a pleasant fea-
ture of the program. Several of the
veterans, in their talks protested
in vigorous language against the mon
ument recently erected in honor OF jeff
Davis. The following program was
carried out:

The Telephone Girl.

The telephone girl sits still in her
chair, and listens to voices from
everywhere; she hears all the gossip,
she hears all the news, she knows who
is happy and who has the blues: she
knows all our sorrows. she knows all
our joys, she knows every girl who is
chasing the boys: she knows of our
troubles, she knows of our strife, she
knows every man who talks mean to
his wife; she knows every time we are
out with the boys: she hears the ex-
cuses each fellow employees: she knows
every man who has a dark past, she
knows every man who is inclined to
be fast: in fact there's a secret meath
each saucy curl of that quiet. demure
looking telephone girl. If the tele-
phone girl would tell half she knows
it would turn all our friends into Bit
wind that would soon be a gale, en-
gulf us in trouble and land US in Jail;
she could let go story (which gain
ing in forceI would cause our wives
to sue for divorce; she could get all
the churches mixed up in fight, and
turn all our days into sorrowing
nights; in fact she could keep the
whole town in stew if she'd tell the
tenth part Of the things that she knew.
Oh, brother, and sister, doesn't it

think what you owe to the telephone

which will make it an offense
punishable by heavy fine for ad-

sing to both the public and legit-
