OBSERVANCE or
DECORATION DAY.

Today the nation commentaries
the 100000 men who died in the
Union armies, and all the survivors of
those armies who have died in the
so succeeding years.
As is usual, many Alexandrians
and people from the surrounding
country will gather in the National
Cemetery towards the close Of the
day to witness the interesting and
impressive exercises.
Memorial Day, the occasion on
which the south honors the memory
of it's dead, was celebrated last Mon
day. These annual observances, oc-
CURING as they do within one week
of each other, bring many persons
together, and as time has about OBJ
liberated the issues which brought on
the war between the states, the des-
cendants of the wearers of the grey
and the blue vie in making both days
Interesting.
The national celebration has from
its institution half a century ago
been known as Decoration Day. The
en- Confederates, in order to distin-
guish the two, have always termed
the day they celebrate Memorial
Day. Of late years, however, they into
have both borne the same name
Day time having al
most blended the two into one.

FL PASO, June 12-News has been received at the Villa headquarters in this city to the effect that Villa has prepared q note of reply to the recent message of the President in which the Constitutionalist leader asserts his willingness to invite new union of all the Mexican factions for the purpose of bringing about some basis of agree ment wherein all can work together for the general good of the Republic and to insure the triumph of the re volutonary principles and especially argararian principles which Villa iu- sists must be the basis of all future action. Another point suggested is that the new movement has as one or it's first objects the instruction of tho poorer classes.
