Omaha's citizenry of nil Masses rested
from their dally labors yesterday and to
gether met and paid united tribute to the
men whoso self-sacrificing valor welded the
United States of America Into Indissoluble
national unity.
Ixng before 2 o'clock , the hour announced
for the memorial exercises , the street car
lines loading toward Hanscom park were
crowded with the thousands of people bound
to the sylvan shades of that enchanting re
treat.
The larco band stand In the center of the
park had been neatly , but modestly decor
ated and around It clustered the people.
School children from the public and the pa
rochl.il schools v/cro there In swarms. The
Park school and St. Peter's parochial school
pupils were the most conspicuous In the im
mense throng. Allot the Grand Army posts
and Woman's Kcllef corps wore represented
in the assemblage. Mr. C. U Thomas acted
as ofllccr of the day.
At a few minutes before 2 o'clock a car
riage bearing Ulaliop ScannellUr. S. Wright
JJutlcr , Dr. Stone and Mr. C , I * Thomas
entered the parkaccompanied by the Omahii
Guards , who marched all the way from the
city to the park as an escort for the distin
guished speakers of the day. As the Guards
appeared there was a general movement of
the people toward the b.ind stand , from
which It was understood the speaking waste
to take place.
The Guards were drawn up In line im
mediately in front of the band stand and
acted as a guard between the school children
and the adults , who were obliged to give the
llttlu folks the space nearest the speakers.
Dr. Uutler and Ulshou Scannell were es
corted to seats on the platform , and while
the Second Infantry band was preparing
to furnish some music they sat
pleasantly chatting and looking across the
interesting sea of human faces before them.
It was an enchanting picture upon which
thoygared. Through the waving , rustling
leafage of the park the sunlight , soitcncd by
a curtain of cumulus clouds , fell upon an as
semblage of fully 10,000 people , Many were
reclining on the vernal carpotlnc of mother
earth , while others occupied scats or gath
ered In groups about tno sheltering trees ;
all were anxiously waiting to hear again
that old but ever now story of heroism anil
sacrifice , written In blood and baptised in
tears , but sacred to the hearts of millions of
people belonging to the gran Jest civilization
and the greatest country the world has over
iccn.
iccn.Tho program was oprnod by n selection
from the Second Infantry band , called
"Hecollections of War. " Immediately after
the music lit. Uev. Bishop Scannoll offered
prayer.
I'rnyor for Unity ami Concord.

The school children sang "No Flap Like
the lied , White and Blue , " which was re
ceived with prolonged and enthusiastic
kpplauso.
Orntlon of the Day.
The officer of the day then introduced Hov.
B. Wright Butler , who delivered one of the
most stirring and appropriate memorial day
orations over heard In Omaha or anywhere
else. From the very outset Dr. Butler
caught the car and the undivided attention
of the people. Ho not only hold their atten
tion , but he carried them with him. It is
Impossible to do the oration justice In a
necessarily limited report , but some of the
more prominent thoughts presented were
these :
"This Is the day upon which wo turn our
faces to the past. It is a day sacred to
memory. Everything Is greater than It
teems. While wo look about us hero and see
a fuw men wearing the uniform of a soldier ,
wo do not realize that they touch shoulders
with more than two millions of their broth
ers some of them , it Is true , gene to the
spirit world , but they live In memory. Wo
do not realize us wo look at these members
Df the Grand Army of the Ilopublio that
there are -10X1,000 of that noble army still in
the land of the living. Things are greater
Ihan they scorn.
"Wo look up and say that the light of dav
tomes from the sun. Wo do not realize that
ill of those burning stars that
fret the heavens with their twink
ling light are suns. and that
they too are shedding their light upon this
rnrtli of ours. Wo read of Xerxes weeping
because w hen ho looked upon nn army of
100,000 men he happened to think that within
Bfty years they must all bo laid away In the
( round. How much more Impressive the
thought that out of the '
'J.fiOO.OOOof noble men
tvho took part in the war of the rebellion
only 400,000 are alive today , and that Is but
Ihlrty-two years ago ,
"And now wo have comn at this beautiful
lenson of the year , when the vernal month
f May Is about ID marry with the leafy
month of Juno , and offer up our gratitude ;
now that this great nation
stops for just ,11
moment , as It were , wo pour out the love of
rratcful hearts us our dead heroes poured
ut their life blood for us.
( Irent Hitttlci Itecnllcil.
But there are other reasons for , selecting
lliis season as the tune of our devotions tone
the treasures of sucred
memory. Thirty-one
years ago today , at this very hour , the
dreadful battle of Seven I'ines was raging ,
mm before those death-dealing thunders
ceased more than 7,000 men lay dead upon
the Held. The following day came the battle
of Fair Oaks , accompanied by another fear-
lul slaughter of bravo men.
"At this season of the year wo also recall
the fearful campaign of the Wilderness.
Between the 5th of May and the llth of Juno
of that eventful year moro than three times
aa ninny able bodied men as could bo found
In this great city today gave up their lives
on the llelU of battle for the preservation of
this country. We should not only remember
the Quantity of lives that were lost , but
their quality as well. The nages of history
glisten with the records of Spartan deeds of
heroism. But what was the noble fight at
Marathon compared with the strug
gle of our own brave wearers
of the bluet One-half of the
soldiers who died at Marathon were slaves ,
but our heroic dead were Ireo men. They
bad kissed the lips of their own wives and
pretty bnboi as they hastened titvay to giro
up their lives for their country's flntr. In
the ranks were skilled mechanics , educated
men of every profession nnd business men
of wealth and honorable position In life.
And while wo are calling upon memory for
her sacred treasures let us not forget the
mothers who parted with son * and husbands ,
the sisters who bid goodby to brothers and
fathers that they might hurry away to the
flcld of carnage.1
Hero the speaker read the following
touching verses from the pen of T. Buchanan
Head :
Womnn In tlio Vfnr.
The maid who hinds her warrior's sash
With smllo that well her pain dissemble * ,
The while hcneath her drooping lash
Ono starry teardrop han s nnd trembles ,
Though hen von nlonn records the tear ,
And few shall over know her story ,
Her heart has shed a drop nsdenr
As o'er bedewed the flcld of glory.
Tlio wife who binds her husband's sword ,
Whllo children round her worn nnd wonder ,
Andhrn\oly spi-ans the cheerful word
Although her hearthn torn nsundet
Doomed nightly In her dreams to hear
Tlio holts of den 111 around him rattle
Iiasshcd ns sacred hlood ns o'er
AVas poured upon the Held ot battle.
The mother who conceals her Brief ,
Wnllo to her breast her son she presses ,
Then breathes it few bravo words nnd hilcf ,
Kl ° sliig the patriot brow she blesses
With no olio hut her secret ( loJ
To know the pain that uclqlis upon her ,
Sheds holy hlood ns o'er the sod
Itucolvcd on Holds of honor.
Ilcnllng Inllitenco of Time.
Dr. Butlrr then turned to the .years of
healing recuperation slnco the war nnd In nn
eloquent and captivating manner ncscribcd
the \vny in which the terrible wound ? of the
rebellion had been healed. Ho said It was
n plorloua thing to realise that the thousands
who were enemies thirty-two years ngo
were now friends. Nature hnd been bind
ing up the scars upon the face of nature dur
ing the war nnd it was right that both north
and south should permit the healing balm
of passing years to smooth out the troubles
of the past and strew the path of future
years with harmony and pc.icc. Ho spoke
ot the very largo number of prominent war
riors who have passed away during the past
few years.
"They are gene to that other world , " ho
said , "where there will bo no blue nor gray ,
but whcro wo arc told that all the faithful
will bo clothed In white , the emblem , of
purltv. It Is n sad thing to die , my friends ,
n sad thing to Icavo this bright , beautiful
world , but our heroes nro rapidly passing.
The war is past and our brave soldiers of the
rebellion are passing. H Is the duty of the
present generation to open their hearts and
pour out their gratitude , not only upon the
graves of the dead , but upon the pathway ot
the living warriors. As they willingly wont
forth to face death for us , let us as willingly
show that wo appreciate their noble effort. "
In conclusion he hoped that the peace and
the blessings of Almisrhty God would rest
upon the people before "him and the entire
nation.
The oration was received with the great
est of satisfaction , and many were heard to
remark that It was the llnest Memorial day
oration they had ever heard.
After the oration came a pleasing program
of music by the band and the schoolchildren ,
followed by the ritual service of the Grand
Army of the Hcpublic , conducted by Dr. H.
M. Stone. Some of the pcopio received a
slight sprinkling before they iinally left the
park , as a brisk 1 ittio shower came up about
4 o'clock , but as a \ \ hole it was one of the
most enjoyable memorial occasions over hnd
in Omaha.

Dcpurccil Com ruilrs.
On the graves of 1 II departed comrades in
Omaha's silent cities surviving veterans
placed floral tributes emblematic of a
bond of unity that death could not sever ,
and a brotherly affection that roaches be
yond the confines of mortal life. During the
j car that had elapsed slnco were last ob
served the sad duties of Memorial day eight
now mounds marking the last resting places
of old soldiers had been reared.
These are those who left the ranks of the

The day's program opened with the na
tional salute , ilrcd on ttio velvet sward of
Forest I awn under direction of Sergeant
Allison at 10 o'clock. I-ong , however , before
the reverberations called back echoes from
the answering bluffs the veterans vtcro
astir , and in nil the cemeteries detachments
were ready with a wealth of fragrant llowors
to begin their work of love.
Thfso details represented Phil Sheridan
post , George A , Ouster post and relief corpsU ,
B. Grant post and relief corps , Gcorgo Crook
post and relief corps , and George Crook
camp of Sons of Veterans. The rounds were
slowly and carefully made , and on each
grave , where had been previously placed by
the marking commit too the stars and stripes ,
wus tenderly deposited a handsome bouiiuot
of Iloweis. Not one was ovei looked , and over
many were dioppcd silent tears , called up
by personal recollections of these who had
gene before , while none were left hastily , so
road is that Grand Army brotherhood , baaed
on mutual trials , dangers nnd sufferings
through long , dark and weary days.
Other graves them were , whcro life's af
fection was manifested , for friends of departed -
parted loved ones availed themselves
of this occasion to strew upon the
graves of never-to-be-forgotten dear
ones delicate tributes to tnolr memory ,
and perhaps never before were the cities of
the dead so generally or so lavishly adorned
with love's offerings. Noticeable Indeed
was the lot on which no fresh tribute ap
peared.
On I'ronpert Hill.
All morning long the roads loading to
Prospect Hill cemetery were lined with pe
destrians and carriages. By noontime this
beautiful burying ground was well nigh
crowded with people laden with flowers.
In this old cemetery Ho the remains of many
pioneers , whoso surviving relatives take
unusual dclleht In seeing that their graves
are kept over green. Many of the floral
decorations were profuse. Some of the
graves were literally covered with
the choicest flowers , while the well kept
lawns tcsttllcJ to the watchful aud loving
care bestowed upon them ,
A committee of the Grand Army was early
upon the ground. The graves of departed
soldiers were bedecked with mlnlaturo
flags , bouquets , and In many instances with
potted plants and cut flowers , None was
overlooked , and all shared in the kindly ofil-
ces of surviving comrades , It was remarked
on all hands that Prospect Illll never presented
sentod a bettor appearance.
Busy pcopio have no time , and sensible
people have no inclination to use pills that
make them sick a day for every dose they
take. They have learned that the use of
Do Witt's Little Karly Risers docs not in
terfere with their he.-xlth by causing n ausca
p.iinorgriplac ; . Those llttlo pills are per ,
feet in actfon and rcsulte , regulating the
stomach and bowels so tint headaches , diz
ziness and lassitude are prevented. They
cleanse the blood , clear the complexion and
onu up the system. Lots of health. In thcsa
littlcfcllows.

The rapid approach of circus day
gives an added interest to the many rc-
markablo now features announced for
Ringing Brothers' World's Greatest
Shows ; and as these famous ; circus man
agers have hitherto never failed to keep
their promises , the public may confi
dently count upon witnessing an extra
ordinary exhibition of ethnologic , zoo-
logic and nrcnic features. The troupe
of Royal Japanese acrobats embraces
twelve remarkable- performers from the
Mikado's own company. The leaders are
'
Tiokichi , Assimota , S'ankichi , Tan and
a wonderfully clever Japanese woman
named Okeo. Their performance is
marvelous beyond description. A troupe
of genuine desert Arabs , who give
a remarkable exhibition of agil
ity and strength , is also a strik
ing ethnologic feature. A grand ballot
militant by a hundred superbly capari
soned horses is a novelty entirely now to
the circus. A school of twenty Mexican
horses go through a performance almost
human in the trained intelligence ox-
hibitod. The Brothers Vcrnon give a
wonderful performance on the Hying
trapeze ; Charles W. Fish and the famous
Keno Sisters exhibit thoj best features
of modern equestrianism ; the four Wal
ton Brothers glvo an unequalcd series of
acrobatic feats and scores of other high-
salaried performers add to the excel
lence of the program. The exhibition
day is next Monday , Juno 0.

Diet and occupation : if they
were both right there would be
very little indigestion ; almost
none. It is hard to change
the first ; that's a self-sacrifice.
Many times impossible to
change the second. Here's
where Johann Hofl's Malt Ex
tract is of value. It aids di
gestion , is pleasant and harm
less , The saliva , the gastric
juice and other fluids are the
natural aids of digestion. Jo
hann Hoffs helps them in
their work. It renders the
largest food element starch
soluble. That makes the work
of the natural juices easier
that is , making digestion easier.
