The pretzel faced German is one of
the comedians OF the game. He was
with the Los Angeles club in 1901 and
then he was picked up by the White
Sox. The Angels are sadly in need OF
little life. Old Cap Dillon infused
very little ginger into his club last
season, In fact the old fellow was

they once fought. 1t stands for their

it's strength.

lilies of those dead and such objects as
they should deem important to their

prises soldiers and sailors OF the war,
honorably discharged or continuing,
and state militia on active duty sub

poses are fraternity. the commemor-
alton of events and the assistance of

been active in establishing homes and
memorials and in educating and sup
porting the orphans of soldiers.

It looked like red pimples. In few

sleep was purely and simply out OF

the first marked instance of large
movement to honor the dead who had
fallen in battle may be said to have
been sounded at Gettysburg, when, on
November 10, 1868, the national GENE
terry there, on the field where thou
sands had fallen on both sides, was
formally dedicated
That occasion was one OF those SIM
pie events which few of those present
looked upon as anything more than
mere formality, but which have in them
the seeds of great popular movement.
There, too, was delivered that address
by President Lincoln which, for its con-
else summing up of an entire epic,
which the times of strife were still pro-
viding with incidents, remains un-
equaled in it's quiet majesty, it's simple
language, in the whole range of Eng
lish literature
The shouts of joy at the surrender
OF Lee had scracely been lost on the
winds until the news of the assassina-
ton of Lincoln spread dismay through
out the nation, south as well as north.
The funeral services over the martyred
president, and the professions and the
lyings-in-state in the cities through
which the funeral train was taken,
aroused in new sense the idea of
tribute to the fallen. In a certain
sense the death of Lincoln at that
time may have FASTENED the sentiment
which finally took shape in Decoration
day. There Immediately were projects
for monuments to the great enamel
pator, and the general tendency was
towards the debt owed to the fallen
soldier and his best friend.

ceremonies will show that it merely
is an adaptation of a custom that is
so old that it's origin is lost IN the
misty mast The custom as we now
have If as is very readily understood
and. recognized, is new; It ala not eA-
ist before the Civil war period. Anu
vet after all. this modern holiday Is
but the general acceptance OF an ola
idea.
How long ago it has been customary
to strew flowers over the graves OF the
dead may not be asserted with any
degree of certainty. From the earnest
times Of civilization it has been Gus
tomary to pay tribute to the dead,
whether fallen in battle or died In
peace. There is something about the
custom that is inseparable from the
practices of civilization.
Our decoration day, or Memorial
day, as it is customary now TO call 1t,
was only the result of the spontaneous
desire to pay tribute to the thousands
of brave men who fell in the great
Civil war. There was something ex-
traordinary which called forth this
spirit-a something that the present
generation may find difficult to thor
oughly comprehend and appreciate at
its true value.
A four-years' war had kept the ma
ton, both north and south, in a state
of commotion and excitement. The
whole country, both north and south,
had contributed its young men, its
youths, and even many of its men of
maturer years to the terrible struggle.
1t is not difficult to understand just
what that means. Here was de-
termined war that had sent to their
graves brave men from every part of
the country That meant that in every
large town and in many village there
were men who went to the front who
never returned; many who did return.
only to soon be borne to their graves
at home.

NATIONS TRIBUTE
Decoration Day in the United
States Sprang From Spon-
taneous Desire to Do
Honor to the Heroes
Who Had Fallen


The country was affected by the
sight. so many men were caught in
the enormous bloody strife, in this
Moloch's nav, that nearly all who re-
manned could point to the grave of one
that had fallen, who was either rela-
tive or dear friend.
The cost of that struggle to keep
the Union has, indeed, been put in dol
lars, but the real cost, the lives lost
on both sides, places the sacrifice in
another light, and cannot be estimated,
for the sufferers were not only the
fallen onesj but those who remained at
home and suffered. too
The south, naturally, was most Sc
verely shaken, and suffered the great
est loss, for the scene of the carnage
and of the greater part of the destruc-
ton of both lives and property lay
south of Mason and Dixon's line.
Therefore it seems to have been poetic
justice that there, in the south,
the first steps should be taken to an
nually pay tribute to her fallen sons,
who, it must be remembered, also were
brave men, and where there were, too,
homes rendered desclate by the loss of
sons, fathers, husbands and brothers.
Within a year or two the Union
troops had gained possession of the
gulf sections of the south, and it may
be said that it was in this section that
the southern women first turned their
attention to decking the graves of their
soldiers The idea may be said to
have been spontaneous, and like many
another custom, may be said to have
been instituted by public opinion in
several places at the same time. Ger
tainly it would be work of much diff
fculty to decide just where the custom
really originated in the south
Spring visits the south full month
before it's first harbingers appear in
the north, and as a consequence it be-
came customary to strew flowers over
the graves of the fallen soldiers in
April, when flowers were fresh and in
bloom. For the first few years, and
until after the war, the custom was
only custom. and had not been or
ganized into an institution. 1t had
nothing like authority back of it; but
it was persisted in with that tender
feeling for the departed that by sheer
public opinion it became one of the
strongest kind of laws. that born of
custom
1t requires the authority of the rep
/ resentatives of. the people to enact a
law making a certain day legal holi-
day, but it does not require anything
more than custom to get the people to
turn out and pay public homage; and
they did turn out, carrying their arms
filed with flowers to lay on the little
mounds in the graveyards and little
cemeteries.
But while this was going on in the
south there was in the north, which
was quite natural, a similar feeling.
1t, too, grew spontaneously 1t did not
require much to arouse the enthusiasm
of the people to duty of this kind, and
