DAY proved to be an ideal one for the observance of Memorial Day in this city, the weather being delightfully cool and pleasant, and an unusually large number of our people visited the cemeteries to place their floral tokons of remembranc€ upon the graves of departed loved ones and friends, and to witness the beautiful and impressive dedicatory exercises held at the Grand Army plot. Never before was there more interest manifested by the people of this community for Decoration Day, nor has there ever been an occasion when there has been more reverence shown and more honor given the memory of the many who have been laid away in the silent cities of thedead. * Last evening there was a continuous.stream of people going and coming: from the local cemeteries, where they beautified the graves and family plots with the choicest roses, flowers, ferns and most handsome floral pieces procurable. At one time last evening it was estimated that there was at least five hundred people in Pine Grove cemetery, some at work decorating ‘and others viewing the great profusion of flora which virtually covered the whole area enclosed within the boundaries of the burial ground. A great many others visited the cemeteries at an early hour this morning and By 11 o’clock this morning the cemeteries presented one of the most lovely and beautiful scenes that mortal eyes ever viewed. floral contributions were some of the handsomest and most expensive flower pieces imported from the big conservatories contributed more floral tokens. in Sacramento and other cities. At 10:30 o’clock this morning the procession of civic and mititary organizations left town for Pine Grove cemetery. The procession was one of great merit and the school children and teachers of the city were well represented, there being more than 300 in line, and each of whom carried a With solemn dirge music the parade moved through town to the cemetery in the following order, a multitude of people following on foot: pretty boquet of flowers.

Mr. Sims’ address was considered one of the best he has ever delivered and was full of eloquent tribute to the heroic dead and abounded with inspiring and solacing thought for the remaining Veterans of the Civil War who are still fighting life’s battles. After the benediction had been pronounced, a firing squad from the ranks of Co.

Their fingers are nearly always loaded with rings, and about their bodies, which are often as round as the bowls of their tobacco pipes, hang chains as thiek as ropes, from which are suspended bunches of trinkets. The Portuguese dandy is very fond of anything that will attract public attention to his much esteemed person. Above his snowy vest he wears a cravat of gleaming colors, while in his buttonhole is stuck a full blown rose of inordinate size. I think I am pretty safe in saying that most of the Promenaders I haveseen strutting about in the chief thoroughfares on Sunday with a riding whip in their hands and handsome spurs on their heels have never set foot in the stirrup. The spur is to them a sign of nobility which they arrogate to themselves—a relic of the privileges of the old chivalry.—London Standard. The Friendship of Youth. Two boys brought up together sometimes remain fast friends for life, but not 0 commonly as one might suppose. “I thought you had a little friend with you today, Tommy,” said a lady to a child who was walking about alone and disconsolate. “I have a little friend, but I hate him!” was the reply.

An Odd Jewish Ceremeny, In the Jewish Encyclopsedia is an account of the queer ceremony of the taking off a brother-indaw’s shoe by the widow of a brother who has died childless, through which ceremony he is released from the obligation of mar rying her. The ceremony is described as follows: ia The yabam (brother-in-law) must have his right foot, on whieh the shoe is placed, washed very scrupulougy, and after he has strapped it on he must walk four cubits in the presence of the judges. Then the chief of the judges reads the following passage, which the yabamah (woman) repeats word for word: “My brother-in-law refufes to raise unto his brother a name in Israel; he wlif not marry me.” Then the yabam is required to repeat the sentence, “I do not wish to take her.” He then presses his right foot against the floor while sbe looses the straps with her right hand, takes off the shoe and throws it seme distance away. Then she places herself in front of the yabam, spits on the floor in front of him and repeats these words after the presiding judge: “So shall it be done unto that man who will not build up his brother’s house, and hig name shall be called in Israel ‘the house of him that hath his shoe loosed.’ ” Poison In Wallis. “As much as 46 per cent of organic matter has been found in plaster taken from the walls of a hospital ward in Paris.’” Statistics tell us that it is not uncommon to find air in public assembly rooms and even in dwelliggs con‘taining from ten to fifteen times the amount of carbonic acid found in pure air. Of this gas Tomlinson says: “It acts as a poison. If we attempt to inhale it by putting the face over the edge of a beer vat the nostrils and throat are irritated so strongly that the glottis closes and imapiration becomes impossibla” One need remain but half an hour in an unventilated room to have inhaled 600 times the foul and poisonous fiuia€; the blood will have carried it to every part of the body, and the entire system will have become saturated.—Hixchange.

Beardsley Gave Up Life's dtraggle This Morning. Mrs. Marie [sabella Beardsley passed from the cares and trials of this life at2 o’clock this morning. She had been seriously ill for about two weeks, but had been bothered fo: two or three years with severe headaches, She had sought medical aid in the larger cities, but found only slight relief. Her death was caused from hemorrhage of the brain, due to the breaking of a blood vessel in that organ. Mrs. Beardsley came to this city in the early fifties and has made her home among us ever since, enjoying the love and respect of the whole community. She wasa woman of kindly heart and_ever willing to lend a helping hand to those in distress, and will be sadly missed among her circle of acquaintances. She was aged 62 years anda native of New Orleans, Louisi ana. She leaves one daughter, Mrs. Estella Williford of San Francisco; and four sons, Al Keeser of Ohicago, Frank and Lee Beardeley of Nevada City, and Arthar Beardsley of Keswick.

Their fingers are nearly always loaded with rings, and about their bodies, which are often as round as the bowls of their tobacco pipes, hang chains as thiek as ropes, from which are suspended bunches of trinkets. The Portuguese dandy is very fond of anything that will attract public attention to his much esteemed person. Above his snowy vest he wears a cravat of gleaming colors, while in his buttonhole is stuck a full blown rose of inordinate size. I think I am pretty safe in saying that most of the Promenaders I haveseen strutting about in the chief thoroughfares on Sunday with a riding whip in their hands and handsome spurs on their heels have never set foot in the stirrup. The spur is to them a sign of nobility which they arrogate to themselves—a relic of the privileges of the old chivalry.—London Standard. The Friendship of Youth. Two boys brought up together sometimes remain fast friends for life, but not 0 commonly as one might suppose. “I thought you had a little friend with you today, Tommy,” said a lady to a child who was walking about alone and disconsolate. “I have a little friend, but I hate him!” was the reply. And the wo ntain a whole essayful of comment upon the value of friendship founded solely upon pro pinquity.—London Spectator. _ _———— “Money,” said Uncle Hben, “is what makes de mare go, but sometimes it wants a sensible driver to preven: somebody f’um gittin’ throwed hahd.” vman, sole agent, i —Baltimore American. An Odd Jewish Ceremeny, In the Jewish Encyclopsedia is an account of the queer ceremony of the taking off a brother-indaw’s shoe by the widow of a brother who has died childless, through which ceremony he is released from the obligation of mar rying her. The ceremony is described as follows: ia The yabam (brother-in-law) must have his right foot, on whieh the shoe is placed, washed very scrupulougy, and after he has strapped it on he must walk four cubits in the presence of the judges. Then the chief of the judges reads the following passage, which the yabamah (woman) repeats word for word: “My brother-in-law refufes to raise unto his brother a name in Israel; he wlif not marry me.” Then the yabam is required to repeat the sentence, “I do not wish to take her.” He then presses his right foot against the floor while sbe looses the straps with her right hand, takes off the shoe and throws it seme distance away. Then she places herself in front of the yabam, spits on the floor in front of him and repeats these words after the presiding judge: “So shall it be done unto that man who will not build up his brother’s house, and hig name shall be called in Israel ‘the house of him that hath his shoe loosed.’ ” Poison In Wallis. “As much as 46 per cent of organic matter has been found in plaster taken from the walls of a hospital ward in Paris.’” Statistics tell us that it is not uncommon to find air in public assembly rooms and even in dwelliggs con‘taining from ten to fifteen times the amount of carbonic acid found in pure air. Of this gas Tomlinson says: “It acts as a poison. If we attempt to inhale it by putting the face over the edge of a beer vat the nostrils and throat are irritated so strongly that the glottis closes and imapiration becomes impossibla” One need remain but half an hour in an unventilated room to have inhaled 600 times the foul and poisonous fiuia€; the blood will have carried it to every part of the body, and the entire system will have become saturated.—Hixchange.
