preparing. Depleted bass and tenor

decision necessary with regard to the
music festival.

NEW YORK SUN REVIEW.


New York. April 28.-The New York
Evening Sun financial review today
said:
There was neither initiative nor ami
nation in today's short session OF the
stock market.
Reviews of general business condi-
tions as reflected in the leading trade
journals were somewhat conflicting.
Whereas Dun's states that business is
In lessened volume and that more con-
servatsm is in evidence except with
respect to government requirements,
Bradstreet's holds there is unwonted
activity save for some Irregularities
and that trade measures fully up to
that of a year ago.
Prices ebbed and flowed with only
moderate net changes. The steel and
copper shares moved narrowly on both
sides of the previous closing level, ex-
cept Utah, which was strong through
out. In the shipping group Atlantic,
Gulf & West Indies moved forward on
the, favorable February report. The
railroad list eased off through sheer
neglect.

MEMORIAL DAY
Decoration Of the Soldiers Graves IN
the MaysviIle Cemetery VIII BE
Made-Asslstance Wanted in
Locating Them.

Decoration Day" which is annually
observed in this city by the surviving
old soldiers and their families by deco
rating the graves Of the comrades who
have passed to the Great Beyond,
will this year be no exception and
plans are being made for the day.
There are at present about 165 SOL
diers Of the Union sleeping in the
Maysville Cemetery. Practically all of
the graves have been marked or To-
Gated but there are many that are
not known to those interested. When
the G. A. r. Post of this city was in ex-
istence the members of the organi-
cation kept a list of those buried
there but doubtless some escaped
their watchful eyes. Since the dis
banding of the post last fall on ac-
count of the list of members grad
ually growing smaller no record has
been kept at all
The Forest Avenue NJ. f. Church
Sunday School on last Sunday volun-
teered to perform the duty of placing
flag OH each grave of a soldier in
the cemetery but they will need a
great deal Of help in the work. This
is duty we owe the dead heroes and
one that should not be overlooked.
The annual memorial service this
year has not been planned for to any
extent but it is thought most likely
that it will be held as usual in
Beechwood Park the Sunday preced-
ing Memorial Day.
All persons interested in the mat
ter of helping decorate the graves will
kindly see Mr.. George NJ. Harding,
Superintendent of the Forest Avenue
NJ. 'E. Sunday School.
