THE CITY CEMETERY.

Local pride, if nothing else, should
prompt our citizens to make a move
towards putting the old city ceme-
terry in proper condition. But the
higher purpose Of respecting the
memories of those who lie buried
there ought to control our actions in
the matter. The bones of many of
Mineral Points pioneers are in the
old cemetery. Surviving relatives, we
believe, would gladly contribute
funds for setting up the monuments
and stones that have been broken
down. 1t is to be hoped that the
city authorities will lead in this
work. Our beautiful Graceland is a
credit to our city, and to those who
have given time and thought to keep
ing it beautiful. Let it no longer be
said that the old cemetery, is a ne
elected spot.

ices in ST. Mary's church and a pro-
cession of the blessed sacrament on
the grounds in which about six hun
dred and fifty people took part. All
the societies of the church were rep
resented, carrying their banners and
a beautiful American flag. Many lit
tie girls in white strewed flowers be-
fore the blessed sacramnt, which was
reverently carried by Father Weyer
accompanied by many acolytes and
st. Mary's choir. An altar had been
erected on the grounds and benedic-
ton was given there, after which tn
procession proceeded to the church
where the edifying services were con-
cluded with solemn benediction Of
the blessed sacrament and singing Of
the TIE Deum.
