DECORATION DAY.
Decoration Day was appioprit.to-
ly observed in thin city. Thu pro
cession fni mod at ton o'clock on
Broadway , and was ono of the
largest aoun in the oity on a sim
ilar occasion. In thy order of thv
procession the band of martial
mtieio Jed , followed by the pupils
of the primary schools , aooompan
ied by their teaohcra. Next in or
dur was the speaker , lion. W. 11.
Akors and wife , aoooinnaniod by
lion. James Wlutohoad , in a carri
age , who were followed by the
members of the G.A R. post , re-
luruod soldiars ol Iho Spanish-Am-
erioan war , the Relief Corps , the
hose and hook and ladder oompan
ies and oitir.uns in carriages. The
ritual Borvjoea at the cemetery were
impressively observed by the otlioora
of Washburn Post. There were
but few graves but what were kindly -
ly romomburod with boquota and
wreaths of ilowortt by loving hands ,
and the day of visitation of the
last routing place of the remains of
their departed loved ones will not
soon bo forgotten. A dinner was
spread in the old Wiido store
building by the Company M. Ro.
liof Commitleo , of which Miss Nan
nie Roborlaon and Mrs. C. U. Rich
ardson were Iho loading ipirits , for
all Iho members of tlio G.A R and
their wives. The feast was greatly
appreciated by the old veterans ,
and at the conclusion of the repast
they voted ihoir thanks to all who
had parlicipatod in ita preparation.
The program in the afternoon at
the north side opera house was ono
of the bosl ever rendered in Iho oily
on Decoration Day. The exorcises
were opened wilh ritual services , in
which the members of the G. A. R
participated. The Harmony Or
chestra had the music in charge ,
and rendered excellent service. In
addition to the music by the orches
tra , there was a Bong by a mixed
quartet , Mosdrs. Oaborna and Shinu ,
MesdamcH Hubbaid and Taylor , and
solos by Mrs. W. D. Black well and
Mrs. A. 11. Stuokoy. The address
of lion. W. R. AkorB , was ably
dolivred , and abounded in most
excellent and patriotic Hont intent
from beginning to end. It wafl a
rare treat to all who hoard it. Dr.
C. L. Mullins , of Co. M. , responded
in behalf of the Holdiers of tlio
SpaniBh-Amorican war , in an able
and patriolut Hpcoch that mot with
the hearty approval of the largo
audience. A special feature of the
occasion was the reading of a poem ,
"Tho Soldier's Reverie , " by its
author , Mrs. A. II. Stuokoy. She
had written the poem several years
a o , when it was published in Iho
Omaha Boo. Mrs. Stuokoy is ono
of our moHt highly cultured ladies ,
and no truer nor more patriolic
heart boats in the breast of any.
She is not only an author of meril ,
but Binge equally as well as she
writes Mrs. W. D. Grant read the
speech of Abraham Lincoln at Got-
tysburur , in an able ana highly ac
ceptable manner. The closing
prayer and benediction was read by
Rev. J. W. Megan. All in all , it
was ono of the most salisfaclonly
arranged wo have over had , and the
attendance of the citizens was the
most general. The city ollioorH , for
the first time in h'lHlory , were all
numbered among those in attend
auco.

At a spuiial meeting of the school
board Monday an informal ballot
was taken to determine what toa-
uhers of the previous yeai should
be retained. Those agreed upon
are Prof. Adamsou , Misses Abbolt ,
Bealo , Alexander and Downoy.
They are o'ich able and etlioient
teachers , and are popular with both
patrons and pupils , and the good
judgment of the board in retaining
tin-in is commendable. ootno of
those not retained are hold in equal
ly an high OHtoem by some , but
wore not among the fortunate. Wo
understand thai Mm. Hunter and
MIHS Drake declined to be candi
dates for another yoar. The schools
in the past yi ar have made good
progress , and with but ono excep
tion there was no friction between
the board and teachers The ac
tion of the board leaves six places
yet to fill , and the public oan rest
assured that the board will exorcise
its host judgment in seeing that
none but good teachers are em
ployed.
