The Tribune of June 2, 1869, con-
tanned the following account of the dec
Grating of soldiers graves
''The ceremony of strewing with
flowers the graves of soldiers buried in
the cemeteries of this city, was per-
formed on Sunday, the 30th. as pre-
arranged. At precisely 81 O'Clock, the
city hall bell tolled nine times, once for
each soldier buried here, and the hall
was promptly filled with citizens bear
ing beautiful wreaths and boquets of
flowers. Major Clowney then announced
the order of procession - directing Gen
Cobb and DR.. Vivian to take the adj
vance soldiers to form first and citi-
zens to follow.
Without further ceremony, a pro-
cession of several hundred was formed
and moved off, proceeding to the Cath
Ole cemetery. The grave Of John
Lartch of Co. E. 18th Reg, was found
to be the only one in this yard, which
YVES generously strewn with flowers by
each one in the procession, all remain
ing uncovered during the ceremony.
Thence the procession proceeded to the
city cemetery, where the same cere-
mony was performed over eight graves
those of Capt. C. H. Cox, Lieut.. Geo.
Cobb. Sergt. T. W. Prisk, Paul Prisk,
Dennis Cowan, Sheldon Carter, Henry
Rule, and one other whose name we
failed to get. Not less thar 1000 peo-
pie were in the cemetery !3'ring the
ceremonies. We hope that ayler steps
will be taken for the observance of this
anniversary at its next occurrence.

1t is treat for any lover of fine milk
cows to look at the Gernsey herd of our

sertion.

means of improving the appearance of

A drop of so degrees in the tempera-
ture from 80 to 40 within "a hours,
and vigorous snow storm on May 18th,
were unpleasant experiences.

HIGH COST OF LIVING HURTS.

People everywhere are complaining
about the high cost of living. And why
shouldn't they complain ? The cost of
living is not only high but it seems to be
going higher. Meantime, great quanti-
ties of foodstuifs are being shipped out
of the United States to Europe.
More people in this country are con-
cerned about our own economic affairs
than they are about the League of
Nations. They are concerned about
economic conditions, about the high
cost of living. about the railroads,
about the increases in telephone rates,
about wages, about employment and. in
short. about those things that come
right home TO everybody.

The visits of the chiefs. of tribes
in the Sudan to buckingham Palace
drew a large crowd to the gates TO
see these very stately and imposing
personages in their flowing white
dress. They came from the Sudan,
where not many years ago Kitchener
was leading a British army to con-
graduate the king on the victory of
the allies, The head of the mis-
sion Is Sir Said Ali E Morghant,
whose loyal address to the king was
interpreted from the Arabic by Sir
Reginald Wingate.
One point in the speech was that,
whereas former wars only decided the
fate of belligerent nations, this war
had involved the future of all weak
nations, among which was the Sudan.
He spoke also of the loyalty Of the
Sudanese during the war in spite Of
the intrtgUss of the enemy.
Then a beautiful gold sword was
presented to the king by Said Add Ell
Rahfnan FL Mahdi, who is n son of the
Mahdi who fame was once SO great
with oriental expressions of fealty
and submission.
The king replied, at sorne length,
asking the chiefs 10 convey TO tho
tribes In the Sudan. his appreciation
of their loyalty and wishes for the
welfare of the country The chiefs
received decorations, and on leaving
the palace drove To the York House.
