St. Mary's Congregational church was
crowded to the doors yesterday morning by
n congregation composed largely of old
soldiers. Grizzled Grand Army veterans and
fjons of Veterans wcro conspicuously num
erous.
Ilcr. S. Wright Duller delivered an excel
lent sermon of particular interest to Grand
Army men , in which ho reviewed many
prominent features of the late war and
stated that the success of the union soldiers
not only saved the nation , but laid the
foundation of Christian unity in this country.
Ho also rejoiced in the fact that this
country was governed by a national ad
ministration nnd that state sovereignty had
received Its death blow. Ho thought that
had state's rights been successful and na
tional control been obliterated , the country
would have been a hotbed of discontent ,
quarrels and rivalry , weakened In power ,
nnd the development of resources made prac
tically Impossible.
The eloquent dlvino complimented the
bravery of the Grand Army men during
these trylmr days. It , was with great dim-
culty that the old warriors could restrain
their applause in the church during Ilov.
Mr. Butler's remarks.

gram of tlio service , which bore the Grand
Army symbols printed in colors.

Rev. Tlndnll Frenches to Veto rani ti 1
Vrget Thorn to tlio Higher Victory.
At the Seward Street Methodist Episcopa 1
church last night the pastor , Kcv. D. K 1i
Tindall , preached a Decoration day sermon
to the members of George Crook post No
2C2 of the Grand Army of the Kenublie.
Between sixty ana seventy of the veteran
occupied the front pews reserved for them
nnd listened Intently to the sormon. I
honor of the occasion the church was decoi
ntcd with American flags , nnd the pulpl
draped with the national colors. I'll
Grand Army banner of the post occupied a
conspicuous placoatlho loft of the lector ,
The Kov. Mr. Tindall began by skotchlnr
the history of the Grand Army , "tho granil
cst nrmy that the sun had over shone on ,
nnd then ho spoke of Its organizer and th
noble principles of the men who having
fought sldo by sldo and having won each
It other's love nnd confidence in the dark days
I during tho'CO's had banded themselves together -
. , gothor to stand by each other during sick-
ft ness and trouble.
If "Now that the war Is over , " said the
preacher , "there will bo no inoro fighting of
man against man , and wo can now turn our
whole attention to fighting the devil. The
old methods of savage warfare are rapidly
Dossing away and I am glad to see it. Hat-
tics used to mean victory or death , but It Is
not so now in Christian countries.
All the north wanted when It
tent Its thousands of armed men
toward the land where slavery was in exist
ence was to subdue the south and bring It
back into lino. The siege of VIcksburg very
forcibly Illustrates my idea. Thorn the
union soldiers fought for weeks , and when
the rebel flag wan at last hauled down the
wearers of the blue not only opened their
liavcntncks and fed the starving confcder-
[ $ ales , but they opened their pockotboolis and
cave the enemy all the aid in their power.
These actions showed that there was no
( . & . malice on the part of the north ; it only
wanted to whip its fractious brother of the
south back Into lino. When God chastises
us ho only wants to got us back into the
right path that will finally lead to heaven.
H should bo the same with parents when
they punish their children , They should
not punish for revenge such persons are
not fit to have children but chastise , as
God docs , to got the youngsters Into the line
I1 of obedience.
la "Jesus Christ won a victory over the devil
in the wlldrrncss. Paul had it out with his
Satanlo majesty on the way to Damascus
I , < nnd ho won a glorious victory , Daniel , Jo
lt f ncpli and Abraham won. So did Martin
Author and John Wesley. So can wo all
win the great victory over the devil , If wo
only have faith In the Lord Jesus Christ and
put our trust In Him ,
"When the war broke out many pf the
eohllors enlisted for thrco years. Today wo
enlist ( n the service of Christ for life , and I
am glad to see that wo have BO few desert
ers. Speaking of deserters reminds tno of
war times , when so many who did not have
the patriotism to stay at the front left the
lines and run away. 1 was only a boy then ,
but I can remember how the deserters used
to hide and always be In fear of the ofllcers
of ( bo law. No wan hai a * bard a time as
the fellow who la trying to get away from
the devil.
"Along toward the close of the war there
were no straeglers. The boys in blue all
wanted to bo In It nt the finish. Now wo
can't afford to desert the standard of Christ ,
because wo shall nil want to bo right there
when the trumpet is Bounded on the last day
and reap the reward duo us for working for
Jesus Christ. And there Is a reward
for all of the Grand Army of the Republic.
The very consciousness of having done n
duty welt Is n reward for the veterans , and
besides Ihl.s the government gives pensions ,
not enough , of course , but still a .slight
reward for noble services. All honor is duo
those who fight tht battles of the Lord , and
they will reap their reward in the end the
same ns did those who fought so nbbly to de
fend the honor of our flag.
"During the war Ihcro were too many men
for nil to become distinguished , but the old
soldier who fought under the colors will
surely receive his crown of glory nnd honor
on Judgment day.
"What n great rejoicing there will bo on
thnt day , when all our battles are oven , nnd
wo can lie down to rest. It will far surpass
the shouts which went up when Leo laid
down his sword.
"It makes mo feel snd when I think ol how
the members of this grand old army are
thinningout. . Veterans are dying nt the
rate of thirty n week or l.MH ) n year. an.d it
won't bo long until they all Ho molding in
mother dust.
"Services on Decoration day are always
touching. These old gray-headed men strew
ing Mowers on the graves of these who
nnirelied sldo by side In these troublous days ,
but how snd it must bo for the wife or
mother who can only mourn for a loved ono
who lies In nn unknown grave. Hundreds
of graves In the national cemeteries are
marked 'unknown. ' but God will watch over
thnt dust until Judgment. "
"Faith , " said Mr. Tlndell In conclusion ,
"enables us to light the good fight and will
finally bring us Into the presence of God
where wo can sing that glorious old song 'I
can rend my title clear to mansions in the
skies.1"

DEADTVOOP , S. D. , May 28. [ Special Tele

United States marshal for South Dakota
and ono of the leading republican politicians
of the state , was found at 8 o'clock yesterday
morning suffering from all the sym.itoms
usually attendant on morphlnq poisoning.
Physicians were summoned , and shortly
afterward he relapsed into a comatose state ,
from which all efforts failed to arouse him.
Ho died at 7:45 : without regaining conscious
ness.
The causo.of his death is a mystery , that
in all probability will bo bin led with him.
Friday night ho complained ot feeling badly
and bought some nntlpyrincof which hn took
twenty grains. Ho Was In the habit of tak
ing this drug , ana the amount ho took could
not have hurt him. Of the seven doctors in
attendance all were of the opinion that the
symptoms pointed unmistakably to morphine -
phino poisoning. Ho was an appointee of
President Harrison's , and extremely popular
throughout the state. His homo is at Vcr-
mllllou , S. D. , where his wife and thrco
children reside , and the body will bo taken
there for burial.

CiiAMncui.u.v , S. D. , May 23. [ Special
to THE BEE. ] Senator Kyle writes
parties hero that ho has asked the
commissioner of the general land office and
the secretary of the interior for a personal
hearing on the Chamberlain Indian school
matter before the question was finally dis
posed of. Nearly a year ago congress
passed a bill appropriating $ ' 5,000 for the
building of an Indian school in this city , and
It scctns that the construction of the school
i ? optional with the Interior department of-
flclals. A Washington telegram to north
western papers recently contained the In
formation that Chamberlain was liable to
lose the Indian school , as the Interior de
partment ofllcials wore opposed to its
construction , claiming that it was
not necessary. Senator Kyle has
carefully investigated the matter , and Is con
vinced that the school is really a necessity ,
and accordingly will do all in his power for
it. It has been learned that at the two In
dian agencies adjacent to this city there arc
fully 200 Indian children who do not attend
school through lack of facilities. At Crow
Creek agency there is a government Indian
school , but it alr\uly has thirty-live more
Indian pupils than can bo taken euro of.
Grace mission , on the Crow Creek reserva
tion , is also crowded to'ts utmost capacity ,
and still there are fully 200 Indian children ,
who cannot attend school because there is no
room for them.
These Indians greatly prefer schools near
the reservations rather than the schools in
the far cast , as it gives the children an op
portunity to visit their homes and parents
occasionally , and gives the more progressive
parents a chance to visit the schools and
witness the advancement of thuir children.
An Indian school at Rapid City was provided
for in the same bill , and. the Black Hills
people will bo interested in the proposed
action of Senator Kyle ,

Preparations Making for Tliclr Coming En

N , S. D. , May 28. [ Special to
THE BEE.J The citizens hero are making
grand preparations for the annual encamp
ment of the Grand Army of the Ilopiiblic ,
Sons of Veterans and Women's Holiof corps ,
Department of South Dakota , which will beheld
held in this city June 0 , 7 and 8. The rail
roads have granted a reduced rate for the
occasion , and it is expected that the attend
ance will bo larger than during any previous
encampment. It is olllcially announced that
Commander-in-chief WoUsert will bo pres ]
ont , and for this reason the coming encamp
ment will bo an unusually interesting ono.
The tents for the old veterans will be
pitched on a fine plateau just north of the
city , good walks connecting the camp with
the city and with the opera housewhere the
meetings for the transaction of business will
bo held.
An effort is being made to induce the
Sioux Indians at the two adjacent agencies
to come to the city during the encampment ,
and it Is certain that a largonumber of them
will bo present. Upon their arrival they
will be instructed to camp in the vicinity of
the veterans' tents , and the old soldiers and
their families will thus bo enabled to visit
and inspect an Indian village and see the-In-
dian mode of living.
Opposite the city if an Island park con
taining hunaieds of acres of line timber , and
the visitors during the encampment will no
doubt enjoy rambles in the shade of the
mammoth trees. The timber will bo es
pecially enjoyed by the people from the
prairie towns. The island is connected with
the city by a pontoon bridge , making it easy
of access. No efforts will bo spared to make
the visit of the old veterans pleasant.
