TO THE MEMORY OF THE DKAI ) Olil SolillerH I'uy Reverent llomngru t < 'I'lii-lr Demi Conn-mien. The decoration of the graves of the veterans who sleep In the various cemeterle ; around Omaha , was accomplished by the com mlttecs of the various Grand Army of the Republic organizations and the Women' ! Relief corps yesterday morning. Every year since a day was set aside Ir which to pay tribute to the memory of the nation's dead the surviving veterans have participated In this sad , but patriotic duty and as year by year their ranks are-thinncc to multiply the graves onr the grassy hill sides , the ceremony brings to them a dcepeJ meaning. Each Memorial day they find ad < dltlonal graves to adorn , and they strew flowers In turn over the sepulchcrs ot those who helped to gather and nrrange the blossoms the year bgfore. The thought thai In a few more years the last surviving veteran will have joined the shadowy army that death has claimed , invcrat the occasion with a solemnity of which no one but the soldier appreciates the full significance. The decc/ration of the graves yesterdaj was largely In charge ot the various Women's Relief corps ot the city. The city was divided Into three districts , each at which was In charge ) of cue corps. The corps attached ) to Crook post ot the Grand Army of ths Re public covered the territory north of Cumins street. That between Cumlng and Leaven- worth streets was In charge of Grant corps and that south of Lcavenworth of dieter corps. The committee of each corps gathered the flowers in Ha district and took them tc the cemeteries yesterday. The flowers were secured Friday and arranged readj to be distributed , leaving nothing to be done yesterday except to lay them on the grave ? In spite ot the backward season which seemed to Indicate a limited supply ot flowers the floral contributions were unusually lavish. The bulk of them were * collected by the pupllj and teachers of the various public schools , but a number of Individuals nlrt made liberal contributions. The women wore fairly overwhelmed with flowers and foliage of every conclevable description , from ths choicest of hot house rests and ferns to the more , modest blosomo which came from private gardens. Many of the flowers had been tended for months solely for the occasion , and when they were all brought to. gather they were , sufficient to fairly covei every troldler's grave. WITH FLAGS AND FLOWERS. The carriages containing the women one the flowers started from the headquarter : of the various posts early In the morning They were accompanied by details ot veter ana and the task of adorning the graves \vai Boon completed. The national salute wei fired at Forest Lawn by a detail of veterans under Secretary Ellison , and tbo handsome flag which the Grand Army of the lib public maintains at the cemetery Honied a half mast in deference to the memory ot tin dead. Nature had provided a marvolouBlj perfect morning tur the ceremony. The fresh morning breeze kept the flowers origin r.nd fragrant and the grass that carpetcr the well kept slopes presented the deopcBl and freshest tint of green. The veterani stood with bared heads \\hllo the echo u : the guns sounded more and moro faint ! } against the bluffs , and then the task o ! adorning the green mounds with flags ant ( lowers was tenderly completed , Aside from the patriotic organizations , there were hundreds of Individuals who came to honor the memory of veterans whom they had known and loved. There were a few widows left who fitlll stood over the ashes of the husbands whom they had never seen elnce Lincoln's call to arms more than a generation ago , and there were many otlure whoso dead slept far aw'ay. but who re membered that all were comrades and came to leave their offering on the graves of men who had worn the same blue uniform. In the city the only observance of the day was In the flags that waved from business houses and flag staffs. The general holiday will occur Monday , when the exercises will be held at Hanscom park and all the public olllces will be closed , It was noticed yesterday that mcst ol the flags which appeared cjown town were floated at full mast. While they were un doubtedly brought out In observance ) of Memorial day , U la suggested that the significance Is lost unices all flags are left at half mast. The veterana request that all flags shall be lowered to half mast Monday. of AU-Siir-Ili-ii.

Some ot ( he property ownern on Ccnte street have started a petition , protcstlni against the proposed paving of the street ti the city limits to connect with the count ; road.
