Memorial Day was well observed in I onp City. Tuesday, and all w ent off smoothly as per program given in the local papers. The services were held at the opera house, the building being packed to its utmost capacity. The stage was finely decorated with Hags, flowers and bunting, and presented most pleasing appearance. The music was an especial feature, being given b\ the choirs of both churches and a number of othtr people, giving a strong chorus. The address bv Hon. Robt. I’. Starr w as one of the finest efforts of the kind we have listen d to in years, showing careful preparation, deep thought and couched in beautiful word painting our friend Starr is so capable of giving. Mr. Starr is a well-read student of history and it was a pleasure to listen to his well-timed remai'ks on Tuesday, so appropriate to the revered occasion. Had we the space at command, we would with pleasure re produce at least a synopsis of his best thoughts that graced the day. but that is denied. Suffice it to say they w ill be treasured up in memory's sacred chamber of the hetrt. At the close of the speaker's address, he, in behalf ol the ladies of Shiloh Circle, presented each old veteran with an elegant bouquet of flowers presented by the Indies of the Circle, in commemoration of the day. Following the closing hvmn, adjournment was taken to the cemetery, where the old soldiers took charge of the ceremonies and performed the last rites over the graves of their departed comrades, and ttie memorable day in the Nation's history w\-s aj l ropriatlv closed. ——— ’ -- 1 he daps blew’the last of Russia’s | tleet out of the water, last Sunday.
