DID THEIR DUTY.
Soldiers With Bayonets Kept Crowds
From Memorial Hall.

Soldiers With Bayonets Kept Crowds
From Memorial Hall.
Two old soldiers, standing with
crossed bayonet, did their duty at
Memorial hall this morning In the face
of an angry mob. One stood silent,
the other answered with asperity all
gibes and indignant inquiries aimed in
his direction. Before the salute, the
raising of the flag and the formal dedi-
cation of the building to the state, no
one was admitted within doors.
The throng on the steps Of the south
entrance considered the ruling unrea-
sonable. One veteran demanded to sec
the officer of the day. Several wom-
en- declared they belonged on the plat
form. An officer threatened to report
the doorkeeper unless he was allowed
to pass.
I'm doing my duty, that's all I'm
doing" reiterated the guard. He had
never had a more disagreeable time on
picket duty; he tightened the cartridge
belt about his waist and opposed all
who attempted to enter.
His not to reason why-he didn't know
told to keep them out Several men swore
roundly and one or two women aimed
indignant satire at the doorkeeper's head
under his old felt hat. But none was ad-
mitted.
The minute the salute was fired the
doorkeepers dropped their bayonets and
hurried out of sight. They had been the
most unpopular men Of the day but they
had done their duty.

The Spell Of Christmas.

Once more, We are under the spell
of Christmas. We cannot be sour or
irritable or pessimistic, do our utmost.
We have been subjected to shower
bath Of gladness; kind thoughts are
circulating with fullness and vigor
through all the avenues Of the mind;
we are elated, even jubilant, ready
for laughter and tears, sympathetic
with the children in their glee, tender
toward the poor and forlorn, strange
ly accessible to life's best memories,
reverent toward religious faith, and
almost willing to go to church. All
this may seem to our pagan mind as
foolish as a revival Of religion, some
thing inconsistent with proper eco
nomic austerity, a senseless revel OF
humanity at the expense Of the
moods, habits, and rules Of solid busi-
ness. Nevertheless, here we are,
pounded into submission and sympa-
thy, overcome for few hours or days
