lin the usual form. The morning wa:
Idevoted to the decorating of the graves
iof those who have answered the last
TROLL call by their surviving comrades
who were ably assisted by members of
the Relief Corps.
| BY noon people imbued with respect
for those who sacrificed their lives that
the Union might endure gathered from
Ineighboring communities and joined
with those of this city of like patriotic
spirit for participating in the exercises
lin the park. AS consequence there
was good attendance.
= A procession made up of veterans,
Relief Corps members, school children
and citizens was formed in front of the

Y IA Address, Rev. John Hardcastie.
Is America. Band and audience.
l6 Benediction, Rev. G. w. Emery.
The principal feature was the address
by Rev. i. Hardcastle. 1t was char
acteristic of the man full of vim and
unvarnished expressions right from the
Sjssulder yet decidedly appropriate for
Ne occasion The whole was clothed
With love for and loyalty to our coun-
Try, the greatest and grandest country
OF the world, with praise and homage
COR the brave soldiers, and with firm
belief that the hand of Providence had
something to do with the shaping Of af-
fairs that brought about such glorious
results. 1t was among the most en-
joyable and satisfactory addresses of
the many good ones that have been
given in Mineral Point on like occa-
sions.
The music was good. The quartet
consisted of Messrs. Bray, Williams,
Martin and Huxtable. Miss Deal and
public school pupils did well in chorus
singing, and Master Everett Wiesen,
the gifted youth, captured all hearers
with his vocal solo. The recitation en-
titled, 1.-THE Union Soldier" by Miss
Florence Ross, proved that that young
lady possesses a rare gift and that she
is not letting it go to waste.
Members of George II. Legate Post
request The Tribune to thank every
body "all along the line" for the cheer
ful and patriotic spirit in which they
help materially to make observance of
the day recognized success.

Daniels today. there were twenty-three
submarines completed-three in reserve
| and two out of commission-only eight
cen being In active service, and to these
| officers assigned. of whom thirteen were
ensigns.
These ensigns had been less than
three years out of the academy. The
| submarine flotilla was consequently

officers assigned to 1t for duty. Short
ly after assuming command of the
flotilla Admiral Grant felt that both
officers and men should be specially
trained before assuming submarine
duty. and such O school was establish
ed on board the Columbia, his flag
ship.
But to prepare officers in advance
for the large number of submarines
nearing completion. as well as for
those that will be authorized in the
current naval bill, It became apparent
that larger facilities would be re-
quired, and the department has. there

that this school be established at the

Oregon Farmers Believe
That Cats Can Aid Clover

BEAVERTON. Ore, June 6.-Given a
number Of farmers with good land and
burning desire to grow red clover:
Show that cats-Tom and otherwise
are quite essential for a full realiza-
ton of bumper crops. Local farmers
figure II out thus:
Large numbers of bumblebees are
necessary for successful pollenation.
The common or garden variety of field
mouse Is ravenously fond of honey and
wrecks many happy bees nest In the
course OF a season.
Cats have an inordinate appetite for
field mice.
Hence the more cats the more clover.
