Yesterday In Honor of the Nation’s Dead. An Hoquent Oration. HE Memorial services held at this city yesterday at Pine Grove under the auspices of Chattanooga Post, G. A. R., Ladies of the G. A. R., and the Women’s Relief Corps, assisted by Co, C, N.G. G, were conceded to be the finest that have ever been. held in this city, amd were witnessed by a very large number of our people and by many ‘from surrounding points. . Shortly after ro o'clock the various organizations which participated formed in line on Broad Street, and promptly at 10:30 the procession moved down the Street on its solemn march to Pine‘Grove cemetery, leaded by the Nevada City Band. Following came the membérs of Co. C, and Co, I, N. G. C. commanded by Major 'P. F. Simonds, both companies turning out in large numbers. Chattanooga Post,jG. AR., came next, and the gray-haired Veterans of the Civil War turned out almostto a man. The school children came next, and although there were quite a few represented the turn-out was not as large as usual. The little ones were carefully piloted by W. J. Rogers, principal of the Public Schools, and each carried a pretty boquet. Then follawed the Native Sons of the Golden West who were also represented in large numbers, each carrying a boquet. Next came the two noble sister organizations of the Grand Army of the Respublic—the Ladies of the G. A. R. and the Women’s Relief Corps—riding in a large ’bus; then carriages containing the orator, chaplain, singers, etc. Citizens in carriages followed. The procession was quite lengthy and was ably marshaled by Major Geo. A. Nihell. 3 At the cemetery the procession disbanded, when the decorating of the many graves of the deceased Grand Army Veterans, members of Cé. C,-and N.S. G. W. was begun. The grave of every comrade and brother was remembered, and at the conclusion of this touching and impressive cere— mony a profusion of beautiful flowers adorned and covered _._ their last resting places. had been beautified by choice flowers and floral pieces, hundreds of people having visited the silent city of the dead early in the morning and the evening previous for that purpose. It is said there never was such a beautiful array of flowers and floral offerings seen in the cemetery, and many lingered here for hours viewing the beautiful scene. When the decorating of the graves had been concluded, a parting salute of three volleys was fired in honor of. the departed soldiers, “taps” were sounded, and the military and other organizations went to the grove Opposite, and amid the delightful and refreshing shade of the pines, listened with rapt attention to the grand program of literary exercises which had been provided. ; The speaker’s stand had been appropriately decorated with the national colors, including flags, and-seats were provided on the platform where the members of the G. ‘A. R. societies, Women’s Relief Corps and singers were given seats. The following program was rendered: 1. Music by the Band. 2. Prayer, Rev. Josiah Sims. 3. Chorus, “Again We Wreathe;” Choir. 4. Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address, Robert Searls. 5. Original Poem, E. M. Tyler. 6. Chorus, “Crossing the Bar.” 7. Oration, Rev. F. E, Dell. 8. Chorus, “Loyal and True.” 9. Benediction, Rev. J. Sims. The musical selections by a quartette under the direction of Prof. J. R. Davis were sweetly rendered and inspiring, and better vocal music was never heard in the mountains of the Sierra Nevadas: The choir was composed of Misses Bertha Webber and Alta Freeman and Messrs. John Werry and J R, Davis,.Mrs. Frank Guenther presided as organist. The original poem by E. M. Tyler was well composed and rendered in animpressive manner. It was greatly appreciated. The delivery of Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address by Robert Searls was magnificent. Every word of this famous address was spoken in a clear, distinct) and elocutionary manner and besides, the young man seem to be full of the patriotic fire and zeal that was one of the characteristics of “Honest Old Abe.” The greatest treat of all, however, was the oration by Rev. F. E. Dell of the First Congregational church of Grass Valley, and those who did not hear it, missed one of the grandest addresses ever delivered to an audience in Nevada county. The gentleman possesses a magnificent delivery and an eloquent flow of oratory. The many war reminis— cences and incidents quoted were full of interest and vividly perseyed, and aroused the fire of true patriotism jn the earts of all his hearers. At the conclusion of the program many went to the stand and personally complimentel Mr. Dell on his masterly effort, Shortly after the benediction had been pronounced the “f marched back to town where it disded.

J. Ott building on Main street occupied by Mr. Ott as an assay office and which has been undergoing extensive repaire, has been completed. The structure has been considerably heightened, which adds materially to its looks. * The new addition is built of brick, topped off with a cornice, and attractive features, It is made of the best galvanized iron, which material Mr; Ott had shipped direct from the tron firms of St. Louis, Missouri. This cornice is the first and only one of its kind in town and is, therefore, something ‘new here. A good, substantial porch is also among the improvements. The building, taken in ‘its entirety, is pow classed as one of the most modern and metropolitan of its kind in this part of the country, and its architectual designment shows its owner: to be a man of rare good taste and judgment. — 3 Serious Charge.

The memorial services which were held at the First Congregational church last evening were.of a very interesting natare, and~bighly fitting as a fond token of reverenee for those who are now numbered with the honored dead.
Delegations . were present from the local Grand Army Post, the Ladies’ branch of that organization ani the Women’s Relief Corps, The pulpit was nicely adorned for the-solemn occasion, with the Stars and Stripes resting in gentle folds upon it. Rev. J Sims, offered an invocation after an appropriate hymn was beautifully rendered by the choir. . Responsive Scriptaral reading followed, and the pastor then touchingly referred.-to the heroes who laid down their lives for the perpetuity of our Union. The reverend gentlemen interspersed his discourse with several little: anecdates incident to. the Civil War, and stated that for nigh on twenty-seven years he has jofned in memorial.services for those ~who died for the Nation’s honor. “His remarks throughou: were attentively listened _to, and the old veterans fa attendance greatly appreciated the pastors grapbic and élequent description of scenes that are dear to their hearts, Starts Tomorrow.
