THE DAY AT MANAWA The Fats and Leans Cover Themselves With Glory—The Motor to Cross the C., B. & Q.—Notes of the Day. Tributes to Fallen Braves. Decoration day was most appropriately ob- served by the citizens of Council Bluffs, During the day the weather was all that could be desired, warm yet not sultry. The clouds had about them a suspicion of rain which, however refused to descend. The decoration of buildings was very general. Many business houses were notable for their liberality of decoration and beauty of design, Notabie among these were the Manhattan, Moore & Kiplinger's, Council Bluffs Carpet company, Harkness Bros., G. A. R. hall, H. Palmer, J. D. Rockwell, J. C. De Hav Henry kiseman & Co. The cars of the street railway flow the American colors and were otherwise tastily embellished with color, Gardens, hot houses, private residences and the woods were all shorn of their fleral beauty to render more beautiful the emblems dedicated to our immortal dead, The hospi- tality of the city was taxed to its utmost to accommodate the throng of strangers who came from t rrounding with us in obs were present from Missouri Val ola and other towns. At 1o'clock business was generally sus- pended throughout the city and the populac numbering muny thousands, assembled along the line of march, crowded the balconie windows and_every sightly place, At 1 the line was formed on the west side of Ba, less park in_the following order: Dalby full band, Dodge Hight guards, drum with Abe Lincoln post, N G.

J. Steadman. Tuvocation, by Chaplain W. H. W. Rees. Music, by the Glee club, ‘Praise of the Soldier.” by Boieldieu. The Hon. John Y. Stone, Esq., delivered the address of the day. Space forbidsa complete report. The following excerpts will serve to give the reader an idea of its brilliancy of thought and purity of dfetion: Duty is the common soldier’s inspiration to action. It has been argued that pride alone makes man appear brave, But pride itself 18 but one of the elements which duty siezcs and bends to its purpose. Pride in a soldier is an adjunct of duty. It is a part of his per- sonality. It is the self or, it may be, the selfish principle which stands guard against criticism and blame. Pride may hold a man in line. Duty alone will send him to the front. The mwan who can conquer his rising and combatting fears, and perform deeds notwithstanding them, is the brave man. 1t is related of a French general that at a great crisis in the midst of great responsibilities at the beginning of a battle he was observed to turn pule, A thoughtless young officer said to him, “*General, you look s2: . Had you not better leave the field?” The veteran gazed thoughtfully at the officer for a mo ment and answered, “Young man, if you were half as badly scared as I am you would leave the field.”” A man truly great will in a vast emergency have vast fears. But he will instantly subdue them and this makes him heroic. Men who accept positions of and power attain hol in proportion as the; te themselves to their work. A great railway manager, yet young in years, felt his great powers fast ebbing out. From the time he enlisted as a wrivate soldier to help fight the battles of the nion on up thtough promotion after prowmo- tion till the close of the war, and then on through the intricate and arduous duties of his life-work, he had been a slave to duty’s exacting and inflexible demand. He served cause that he did not strengthen. He «d no interest that did not prosper. Loyal to his country, loyal to every cause he served, loyal to cvery friendship and friend, yal to every principle and noblo sontiment, homas J.

The glee club responded to this closing sen- timent with O. B. Ormsby's memovial hymn, #Rest Comrades, Rest.” Colonel R Hub- bard was then introduced and delivered an address ‘‘to the unknown dead,” which in description and imugery wes fine and won many compliments : Rev. G. W. Crofts delivered the following poem, which is given in its entirety : Once more we meet 1o celebrate The bright eternal fame Of those who died to save the state And glorify her name.
