AND NOW"
WITH COMRADES
Of GRAND ARMY

Then and nowZbut mostly then. AL
though we are now living in times Of
peace, and the solidity of our country
is assured, yet il seems as though we
look back to the days of yore and wish
we could live them over. We have so
little In front of us and so much to
look back upon that we naturally live
in the past"
These and similar sentiments were
voiced by at least a dozen grizzled
G. A. r. men as they waited for the
line of march to form at Military Park
early this morning. That the moment
filed them with u~nspeakable happiness,
that the idea of being firm enough to
march fifty years after their enlistment
was q pleasure that they could not
describe is certain.
1T is our work. they said. We
fought to preserve the Union. We
fought to free my black brother, now
standing beside me, n we are proud
of it. We are proud of the fact that
we were of some use to civilization,
proud that we helped make this the
greatest nation on earth.
But to think that We are going so
fast, to think that next year there Will
be fewer of us. and to look about now
for old comrades and then remember
that they have passed away casts a
cloud over our happiness that seems
10 mar the pleasure of the day"
True enough. there were fewer old
soldiers in the parade than ever be-
fore. fewer on loot and many more in
carriages. Time, that relentless toiler,
has been active during the past year.
He has taken many comrades away
made many infirm. He has insisted
that some stay at their homes today,
and that some be allowed to join the
celebration only on condition that they
ride.

A rock pile. as suggested by Councilman
Berka, can be made a paying proposition
from the start Not only will it increase
the efficiency OF the policing Of the city.
but It will provide a revenue for the city
This Endorsement OF the rock pile was
given by City Engineer craig Wednesday
morning Mr.. Craig and Councilman Berka
who is fatherng the scheme, were in
structed TO formulate plans for the limo
walton.
The cost will be a minor consideration, DO
declared Mr.. Craig "The city has plenty
OF rock for the hoboes to work on An that
we need is a location. There are three
tracts OF land near the asphalt plant, at
Eleventh and Nicholas streets, which can
be rented for a. nominal sum. This de-
partment will furnish the rock and haul
il away after 1t is crushed
I'VE can use It in our paving. When
Tenth street is repaved, the city will have
enough rock to run the place for a con-
siderable length of time.
The expense Of installing the rock pile
will be small. We shall have to buy a
few hammers and erect a fence around
the grounds. This expenditure can be au-
thorized by resolution and the city will
get the money back In a short time"
Councilman Hummel and Sheldon have
declared themselves opposed to a rock
pile. Both state that It is not needed and
declare they will oppose any movements

Smoke curled from three cob pipes in "a
smoking compartment OF a train. The
pipes protruded from the lips Of Jack and
Fred Mason and Alfred Cantrell, who were
leaving their homes In Texas county, Mis-
souri,, for the place where their rainbow
ended In wyoming.
An affable man entered the car when
the smoke was thickest. lie told Of a goat
ranch in Wyoming; told that he was going
to stop off at Omaha and purchase five
carloads Of goats from the stock yards;
that he was going to ship the goats to his
ranchs that he needed men to help him.
The members Of the trio named their own
salaries and verbally contracted for the
jobs. The stranger had a check for 81 200
he could not cash lie needed ready money
The three squeezed their pockets and gave
him SS5-all they had. lie was to have
met them later when the goats would be
herded into the five cars and sent to wyo-
ming. But he didn't.
