are Working in This Section.
The postofiee department has sent
a special warning to the merchants of
Kenosha urging them to keep a close
watch for the passing Of stolen money
orders. These orders were stolen from
one Of the sub stations Of the post
Office at San Francisco and most Of
them have been shipped east for use
in the district about Chicago. There
are hundred of the orders missing
running from $4,000 to 324o0. Money
has been obtained on them at hotels
and other business houses in various
parts Of the country and the govern
ment officials have reason to believe
that these men are now working the
cities about Chicago. A. L. Warren
and James P. Gibbs are the names
that have been given by the men who
have cashed the stolen orders. Thv
merchants are urged to notify the po-
lice should any one seek to cash or

SENDS FIRST ORDER
Original Proclamation to be
Read Before Grand Army
Posts This Year.
ISSUED BY GENERAL LOGAN

The first general order issued to
members Of the Grand Army Of the
Republic for the Observance Of Mem
ORAL day have been received BY
officer Of Fred s. Lowell Post, G. a. r.
and will be read at a meeting Of the
post. The order was issued by Gea
John A. Logan when he was eomma1-
der-in-chief OF the Grand Army Of the
Republic aud each year veterans OF
the civil war who are members Of the
Grand Army of the Republic have
observed Memorial day.
The order was issued May ), 1868
land the first time that Memorial day
was observed by the veterans Of the
civil war was on May 30, 1868. and
for forty-four years the veterans Of
the civil war have gathered together
to pay a tribute to their departed
comrades.
The general order issued by Gener-
Al Logan, follows:
1.-The thirtieth Of May 1868, is de-
lsignated for the purpose of strewing
with flowers or otherwise decorating
the graves Of comrades who died il
defense of the country during the late
rebellion and whose bodies now lie in
almost every city, village and hamlet
church yard in the land. In this OBJ
servance no form Of ceremony is pre-
scribed, but posts and comrades will
in their own way arrange ach fitting
services and testimonials of respect as
circumstances may permit
I'VE are organized, comrades, as
Jour regulations tell Us, for the pur-
poses among other things Of preserv-
ling and Strengthening those kind and
fraternal feeling which have bound
together the soldiers, sailors and ma
rines who united to suppress the late
rebellion What can aid more to as
sure this result than by cherishing
tenderly the memory of our heroic
dead, who made their breasts a bar
ricade- between our country and its
foes2 Their soldier lives were the
reveille of freedom to race in chains
and their deaths a tattoo Of rebellious
tyranny in arms. We should guard
their graves with sacred vigilance; all
that the consecrated wealth and taste
Of the nation can add to their adorn-
ment and security is but fitting tri-
butte to the memory of her slain de-
Tenders. SLet no wanton foot tread
rudely on such hallowed grounds. Let
pleasant paths invite the coming and
going Of reverent visitors and fond
mourners. Let no vandalism Of avarice
or neglect, no ravages of time, testi-
|fy to the present or to the coming
generations that have forgotten as a
people the cost of free and undi-
vided republic.
If other eyes grow dull and other
hands slack, and other hearts cold in
the solemn trust, ours shall keep. it
well as long as the light and warmth
of life remains to us.
Let US, then, at the time appoint
ed, gather around their sacred remains
and garland the passionless mounds
