came when the curtain was drawn
from specially constructed standard
at the end of the pavilion and great
electric American flag was disclosed.
The flag was some eight feet long by
six feet wide and maze a most strik-
ing appearance when the lights were
turned off on the pavilion.
An arrangement had been made by
Ira Rickerson and his assistants
which alternately illuminated and
darkened the display. The flag itself
was made by electric globes painted
the appropriate colors, with back
ground of red, white and blue. More
than two hundred globes were used
in the making of the display and it
took several days to make it. The
decoration of the dance pavilion was
turned over to Mr. Rickerson by the
committee from the League and Club
and many appreciatives words were
heard commencing the result of Mr..
Rickerson's efforts. The pavilion it.
self was beautifully decorated and
this, combined with the electrical dis
play, was surely the very best that
Ray has ever had and probably the
best that will be seen here for a long
time. After the flag had been dis
played it was slowly raised some
twenty feet in the air while the band
played "The Star Spangled Banner"
Though the methods employed in the
operation of the display were very
crude and the time was limited, it is
remarkable that the effort proved so
successful.
Then refreshments were served,
after which the largest crowd that
ever attended dance in Ray indulged
in dancing until after midnight.

The first contingent for the big
draft army will leave Florence to-
morrow and will go, so far as is
known, to Fort Riley, Kansas. There
are forty-nine of the Ray boys that
will go in the first call. Of the first
contingent there are four to go. They
are Del Schiels, C. E. Macmillan, E.
W. Heller and D. c.. Hales. The Sec
ond contingent which leaves on the
18th of September will take forty per
cent of the men called and the balance
of the forty-nine who go from Ray
will leave some time in October
In choosing the men for the first
call, number of married men were
selected and some of whom are en-
titled to exemption. The result of
this will be that there will be others
who will be chosen from farther down
the list to make up for those that will
be exempted.
In choosing the first call 1548 men
were examined. 1t is estimated that
probably another hunGred will have
to be examined before the list is COM
plete. Then there will be few who
will fail to show up at the appointed
hour and whose places will have to
be filed by alternates. This has all
been arranged for and the men who
will act as alternates have been Sc
lected. The men for the first contin-
gent were chosen numerically in the
order of their drawing in the county
In other words, if your serial num-
Der was the two thousandth drawn at
Washington in the big draft drawing
you would not be in this call as it
was not necessary to go that far
down the list to get the required
quota.
Those who have been chosen for
the first three contingents from this
place and who will have to go into

unless exempted by the appeal board,

mourning for the man whose name it
had honored. Business in the town

sent Mrs. Decker by w. 8. Owens.
the mayor. in behalf OF the citizens.
His remains will be placed in a
vault until Decoration day when they
will be moved to their last resting
place on Mount Lookout.

Scott county. Iowa. Feb. &c, 1876. He
was Of Spanish. English and Irish an
cestry.
His father was killed in an en-
counter growing out OF a slave dis
pute. and at the age of ten, young
Cody found himself at the head OF a
family. He obtained his first employ
ment as courier between freight
wagon trains operating between the
Mississippi river and the Rocky
mountains. In turn he became wagon
master, trapper. hunter. pony express
rider and stagecoach driver. All the
positions gave him a wide experience
in the life which later was to make
him famous.
He served in the Union army in the
war between the states as confi-
dant and scout. In the desultory
fighting in the Southwest near the end
of the war he earned for himself the
name of master scout and guide.
These qualifications soon brought
him to the attention of ranking gen.
erals Of the Union army and secured
for him the appointment as chief of
scouts in the United States army dur
ing the numerous Indian campaigns
against the northern Sioux. His
career in this capacity identified him
with the great fighting epoch between
the Indians and the white men waged
by Gen. Sheridan.
With the advance OF civilization far
ther west. Col. Cody found his occu-
pations on the plains fast decreasing.
He then went on the stage, where he
remained for several years, playing in
dramas depicting Western life. Later.
in association with Nate Salisbury, he
organized his wild west show, with
which he toured the United States
and Europe for many years. In
Europe he was entertained by royalty
He entered politics on a small plane
and in 1872 was elected to the Ne
braska Legislature. In 1866 he was
married to Miss Louisa Frederici.

Washington, Jan. II. Admiral

A general breakdown accompanied
by arterio sclerosis incident to old
age, was the cause of death. The dis
ease had been gradually spreading it's
hold upon the powerful body for
year and half, but the admiral, proud
of his physical vigor had fought 1t off,
and even kept its existence a secret
from most of his intimate friends.
Last Wednesday he was at his office
apparently hale and hearty. The next
day he collapsed as he was preparing
to leave the house, and the beginning
of the end was at hand.

When news of the Admiral's death
was received at the White House,
President Wilson authorized the fol-
lowing statement:
''In expressing his grief at the dealn
of Admiral Dewey the President said
the whole nation will mourn the loss
of its most distinguished naval Off
Ger; a mau who has been as faithful,
as intelligent and as successful in the
performance OF his responsible duties
in time of peace as he was gallant and
successful In time of war 1t is just

great American naval battle against

achievement, from the days of the
Civil War down to the time when, as
the head of the General Board, he be-
