rial day in effect for a purpose kindred to
that perpetuated by the Memorial day institution.
He journeyed to the scene of the decisive battle
of the war for the Union in order to dedicate the
first national cemetery, pioneer of scores of SINH
lar shrines How closely linked the institu-
tons of Memorial day and the countrywide
Gordon of national cemeteries is not generally
appreciated Without the one We would not have
had the other and indeed it from the national
cemetery idea that there was evolved it's COM
panion thought-Decoration day
It was in 1863 that President Lincoln formally
opened the first national cemetery and the fol-
lowing year-on this occasion the May 80 date
that has ever since been observed-he informally
opened the second of the national cemeteries,
that at Arlington the Potomac which has
since attained to first rank among all the national
buryng grounds in point of size and in number
of graves 1t is at Arlington, it may be men,
toned incidentally, that the president of the
United States usually delivers his Memorial day
address, but there have been numerous excep-
tons to the custom, along the lines of President
Taft's chosen plan for his first presidential recog-
milton of Memorial day.
There was nothing prearranged about that
first observance of Memorial day in our second
Oldest national cemetery. President Lincoln on
that eventful May 3d. 1864 merely following
his usual custom of devoting the late afternoon
to drive from hospital to hospital in and near
the capital in order to carry words of cheer to
the sick and wounded soldiers. He was accom-
panied by Gen. Montgomery c. Meigs who was
at that time quartermaster general of the army.
1t was late in the afternoon when they reached
the old Robert E. Lee mansion at Arlington, the
last of the improvised hospitals which they had
planned to visit that day Upon their arrival at
Arlington the presidential party found prepare
tions in progress for the burial in a distant and
already overcrowded cemetery Of twelve Union
and Confederate soldiers who had answered their
last roll call at the hospital
The matter of institutng second great ma
tional cemetery then and there hurriedly
given consideration and General Meigs with the
sanction of the president, issued the order that
the dead awaiting burial should be inferred in
Arlington He designated a spot near the his
/ toric mansion for these first graves and just at
shutdown simple services were held as the bodies
| were lowered into the graves. Since that first
| informal memorial day the population of Amer

more than 5000 and average of 800, almost
all of whom are veterans of the Civil war. are

to night tents, to field tents, shaped and about
the size of ordinary tablecoth. When Chatta-
nooga, Tenn, was besieged by the Confederates
the Union army lined beyond rifle range The
height of enemy precuded the possibility of
doing much damage TO them, either by artillery
small arms, but by artillery the enemy bonn
barded the entire federal lines. Now, the tents
were open at both ends so it happened one day
that a 20-pound shell thrown by the enemy
and, entering the tent of comrade, exploded,
blowing the tent tree-top high, earth and all. Two
boys in blue were hard by, one the owner of the
tent and the other said
''There you BANKED fool; you what you
get by leaving the tent door OPEN"

Capt. S. F. Horran tells pretty story of an
incident during the battle of Perryville, KY, on
October 8, 1862. Captain Horrall thus relates it;
"The Forty-second regiment, by overpowering
numbers, was compelled to surrender the ground
that had been fought over, back and forth, three
times being held alternately by the Federals and
Confederates. thus mixing side by side the wound
ed and dead of each army AS men were
retiring, Corporal Allen Gentry, Of Company H.
was passing wounded Confederate, who asked
for water. Though at danger or risk of capture,
Corporal Gentry divided his own scanty supply
with his enemy of half an hour before They
were no longer enemies. One of my COM
rades lay dying near a Confederate The COM
rade's thirst slaked, the canteen passed into the
hands of young Confederate who also lay dy-
ing-the CLASSY look of death in his eyes. He
drank the water, the last drop, then-as did the
federal soldier-laid his head to rest in the long
sleep. They drank from the same canteen.
Another story told by Captain Horrall brings
out a bit of everwecome humor in army life. He
says:
at is we'll known that the comprising the
Army of the Cumberland, as others, were reduced

congress to devote a considerable sum to the
erection at Arlington of great memorial amph1-
theater-replacing the present artistic but rather
unpretentous amphitheater and rostrum-and
when this is done the ediice, seating 5000
persons, will provide setting for the annual
Memorial day services that will give new signif
canoe to the commemorative exercises.
Andrew G. Curtin, the war governor Of Penn
sylvana, has often been given credit for origina-
ting the idea of the national cemeteries, out of
which in turn came the proposal for annual
memorial day. However, the claim in behalf of
the executive Of the Keystone state is disputed
and much evidence has been presented from time
to time in support of the contention that the
honor in reality belongs to Thomas Brougham
Baker, who at the time of his death few
years ago clerk in the quartermaster's office at
Chicago.

A Quick Cat.

Some years ago the proprietor Of a
hotel in southern New Hampshire told
the following story: He said that
when he was boy he had occasion
to go into the garnet of his house one
morning and that the family cat fol-
lowed him up the stairs. One of the
windows was open, and when they en-
tered the garnet frightened mouse
jumped out of the window, and the
cat, jumping after it, caught it in mid
air and, whirling round, jumped back
again into the same window.

the pioneer Baker, the originator OF the cemetery
idea was one of the men chosen to lay out the
initial cemetery. Not only that but Baker con-
Quoted the first funeral in this first national Gene
terry and was in personal charge OF all the cemete-
rial and mortuary records of the army up to 1869
From this modest beginning the national cemetery
idea spread until there are now 50 national GENE
ferries with total burias of more than 35OOOO sol
ders of which number 10000 are unknown
Gen John A Logan is usually given credit for
having suggested the observance of Memorial day
in it's present form. Nowhere is there more I'M
pressive celebration of each recurring memorial
day than in the national cemeteries-ocated in
80 states and territories and in Old Mex1co-even
though some of them be situated in localities
remote from large towns cities and none too
accessible. Particularly notable and interesting
are the ceremonies where the national cemeteries
are located in the vicinity of state or national sol
diers' homes, making it possible for the old vet
to themselves pay tribute to the comrades
who have preceded them to the last camp ground.

For the critics,

Creston Clark, whose untimely
death at Asheville robbed America of
a serious and capable actor, was
somewhat impatient of criticism. To
Philadelphia critic he once said:
You chaps are unwilling to accept
a man for what he is. You want to
change him to your own taste. But
each of you has different taste. To
whose inclination, then, is he to
bend?
mo, no! Take the artist for what
he is. That is the right critical atti-

Decoration day observances in our
great national cemeteries. Not that
it is anything unusual for the chief
executive to spend this May day or
memories in one Of another OF the
silent camp grounds of the nations
fallen soldiery. On the contrary, the
custom observed by practically ev-
ery president since the Civil war has
made it almost an unwritten law
that the highest official OF the nation
shall at this spring festival of re-
membrance accept some one OF the
numerous invitations which are al
ways extended to him to unveil
some martial monument or act as
the principal speaker at memorial
services.
The exceptional interest in the
new presidents debut as the nations
foremost Memorial day orator arose
from the fact that it CHANGED to be
made on the greatest battlefield OF
the greatest of wars and in the same
environment where Abraham Lin
coin delivered his most celebrated
address-that appeal for 'the gov
eminent Of the people, by the people,

of the army, they saw member or

being buried by the roadside. Baker
suggested that there should be in
every large city Of the country
cemetery owned and controlled by
the government for the burial of the
soldiers. and that the national gov

interments. Baker thought so well

that he brought it to the attention
of Simon Cameron, then the secre-
tary of war Cameron rejected the
plan, but Baker persisted in his eff
fort to enlist the interest of the
government and when Stanton sue

suggestion and six acres of land in
