Most Enthusidstic Obgervancs ot the Day Bver Witnessed. THE DETAILS OF THE DOINGS. A Gasoline Blaze—Ths Firemen to Be Carried Free on On¢ Road, Anyway—General and Personal The Tributes For Hero s, Memorial day in Council Bluffs opened in calm and cloudless splendor, with a crispy freshness to the air that lent additional charm to the day and vigor to the thousanas who participated in the exercises. With ench recurring season there is apparent a stronger and ever increasing determination to observe the new national holiday with more elaborate ceremonies, As the memories of the dead grow fainter the wreaths and floral tributes that are annuaily laid upon their graves grow larger, cheering the hearts of the old soldiers still living with the assurance, given with ever increasing em- phasis, that their country will never forget them, giving the tender assurance that is born of something holier than gratitude, that unselfish love and appreciation of their sacri- fices will lead stranger hands to wreathe the mound and the monument, each year with summer's sweetest offerings, and teach euch rising generation true patriotism by garland- ing with flowers the graves of those who fell in defense of their country. The prettiest sight 1n all the fine cere- mouies yesterday, the most appreciative and suggestive tribute that will cheer the with- ering hearts of the old soldiers who are tak- ing the last faltering steps of life's battle march before the final halt is ordered by the Great Commander, was the tribute of the children. God bless them! How their little hearts throbbed and how their faces shone when they marched out a thousand strong and met a committee of the grizzled old ve erans in the conter of Bayliss purk and pr sented their offering, a beautiful floral can- non! They marched from the Bloomer building, seven grades of them, each room under the command of its teacher and ali gaily uniformed, and reached the center of the park at 9 o'clock. The procession of childen formed 1n the school building and marched to the park, headed by the floral cannon, drawn by its special custodians. They wheeled it up to_the point where the reception committee of the G. A. R., Colonel Hubbard, of the Nonpareil, E.J. bbott, John Lindt, I. A. Cooper and F'. A. Sackett, Were waiting to receive them. When the circle was completed and the beautiful em- blem of peace conquering war was in the center and in the presence of the committee, Miss Bella Snyder, a bright little girl, dressed in & proper costume, stepped for- ward, and 1n a brief original address pre- sented the cannon. ‘The little girl performed her part well and visibly affected the old vets present with her tender allusions. Colonel R. C. Hubbard responded in be- half of the Grand Army with a written ad- dress, and one of the best he has ever made. He recognized the security of the republic and the security of the places of the.old vets in the grateful hearts of their countrymen when the little children of a third generation come forward with such a beautiful and suggestive tribute. At the conclusion of his speech Miss Mamie Field, a bright hittle ten-year-old girl, dressed as the Goddess of Liberty, rose up from the center of acirclo of little eiris representing the thirteen original states and recited a Grand Army poem. Her patriotic compatriots were Mida Kirkland, Frankie Bowman, Nellie McClurg, Nellie Hardin, Hattie Walker, Hattie Cocheran, Minnie Sher- radden, Effie Otis, Efie Aylesworth, Nellie Jucobs, Jessie Gilbert, Belle Snyder and Elsie Schoentgen. The pupils were those of the rooms presided over by Miss Mechin, Miss Hattenhauer,'Miss Meyers, Miss Han sen, Miss Bell, Miss Tinloy and Mrs. Ware. The cannon was a beautiful piece of work, made entirely by the children. It was a mounted gun, about four feet long, with all the frame work hidden by flowers. When the exercises were concluded the children marched back to the Bloomer building, fol- lowed by a drum corps and & company of cadets from the Washington avenue school. The exercises in the afternoon drew out the largest attendance that has perhaps ever been seen in Council Bluffs oo any Decora- tion day. Nature poured out her most gen- erous sunshine and her balmiest air, and the 40,000 people of the city abandoned their usual business and turned out en masse to observe the day. The streets were so densely packed with people and vehicles and the procession grew to such proportions, that nearly an hour's delay occurred before it began to move. The programme outlined in yesterday’s Bee was carried out and the procession followed the line of march indi- cated. There were no halts or breaks, but it required nearly an hourfor it to pass a given point. Long before the procession had completed its march, the throng of carriages and people on foot had commenced to move towards the cemetery. The crowd was by far the largest that ever assembled in that beautiful spot. ‘Che throng at the narrow entrance was 8o dense that hundreds were dissuaded from attempting to enter, but enough passcd the gates in the two hours, during which the stream of hu- manity poured through to fill the grounds, Almost every person carried a gavland of fowers, while carriage after carriage and express wagons bearing floral emblems passed in. The disposition o make Decora- tion day more than it was originally intended was manifest, for not only the graves that bore the little flags to distinguish them as the resting places of the dead heroes were deco- rated, but every mound, no matter who the sleeper was, was strewn with the fragrant blossoms. The desire secemed to be spon- taneous and universal to make this a geueral memorial day on which all the dead should be remembered. While the usual exercises were going on every grave in the cemetery was decorated. The speakers’ stand was erected in the natural amphitheater always used. When the throng around it bad become so dense and extended so far that those on the out- skirts were far beyond any speaker’'s voice,the exercises were oponed by the president of the day, E. L. Shugart, introducing a male quartette, composed of Messrs. McDonal Westcott, Allen and Ogden, whose selectio was followed by prayer by Dr. Phelps, of the Presbyterian church, and this by a spir- ited rendition of **Murching Through Geor- in? by & band of achool girls who took part {‘u the morning exercises. At the conclusion of the song the speaker of the day, Hon, J. 8. Lathrop, of Sfaux City, was intreduced. He road from manuscript a chaste and elo- quent-eulogy on the nation’s honored dead who are sleeping in Fairview cemetery. His address occupied an hour and aquarter in delivery, but it was so beautiful and so eloquently expressed that it held the atten- tion of the people throughout. It was a model meworial performance, reviewing the struggles and sacrifices the soldiers made, and pleading that the sacrifices should not be in vain, One sentiment that was warmly applauded was the declaration that the war Wwas over and the bluo aud the gray were no longer enemies, but would meet to-dsy on wmany former Jbatule fields, memorialize the dead with flowers and fraternize as common patriots of oue common land; that the sol- diers had won peace, and were How pro- claiming it and rebuking the politiciaus who would seek to keep alive hatreds that they had long since buried. Dalvey’s band rendered taps and a dirge, and then Mrs, G. W, Kimball was intro- duced and gave a very beautiful recitation. ‘This was followed by prayer by the Rev. Mr. Mackay, and then the last formal steps were taken to decorate the soldiers' graves by the Grand Army men, The wreaths, gariands and bouquets were showered on the gruves without stint until each looked to be a mound of flowers. The customary services were held @t the graves of the unknown, conducted by the Rev. G. W, Crofts, of the Congregational church, This was followed by a duslcll-ury Kdruyur by the Rev. D. C. Franklin, of the cthodist chiurch. After the decorations had been placed on the graves, the parties re- turned to the platform and listened to the singing of Will Carletoy’s undyiug tribute, “Cover them over with beautiful tiowers.” Dr, Cooley, of the First Baptist church, then pronounced the benedivtion and the crowd dispersed, 1t was the most remarkable memorial day Council Bluffs has ever observed, on account of the unusual atteadance and the universal THE OMAHA desireto decorate al) the graves of the dea well a5 the prominent part taken by the children. The streets along the line of march were rrohlsvl\' decorated, and the blocks o the husiness part of the city were long lines of bunting and flags, arranged in festoons and pleasing designs. The business men vied with each other I decorating their respec tive places, conspicnos among them _being Eiseman & Co., and Fotheringham, White- law & Co.

In each show window ap- peared a stand of arms, supporting a_beauti- ful bonquet. Handsome festoons of bunting formed an appropriate background. In the main entrance, in front of a background of bunting and crape, was a tent with the flap drawn aside, showing the form of a sleeping soldier inside, wrapped in his army blanket, S0 natural was the sceno that thousands of passers by stopped to gaze upon it, to ascer- tain whether or not the incumbent form was really alive. At both places the designs were admirably conceived and tastefully ex- ecuted. e lun Money loaned at L. B.

A horse driven by Tim O'Hearn became frightened at the music, and the parties in the buggy jumped out and two men seized the frightened ani- mal by the head. It turned around and started down the streot, dragging them with it. Finally rearing, it struck one of the men with its hoof, knocking him nearly ucross the street. Mr. O'Hearn still clung to the bridle, and seized 8 post to help hold the animal, but was torn loose. A tree was grasped with no better result, and a blow from the horse’s hoof finally threw him from his hold. 'The animal then rushed against a lamp post, head first, breaking it off close to the ground. He then continued mad flight, down the street, kicking at every jump, The buggey was completely demolished, and the frightened brute finally was stoppved on the Muin street bridge by Fireman Fifer. The damage was confined to the buggy and harnes Aithough the streets were filled Wwith carriages, no coilisions resulted. e If you are building, investigate Bo- dine Roofing at 115 Pearl street.

The blaze was found to be in the storehouse of James & Gaines, coal oil and gasoline dealers. The fire was started by two little girls, who were playing with matches in the building. Eight barrels of coal oil and gasoline were stored there, und they were soon in a blaze. The heat 'was intense, and the flames from the burning fluid leaped into the air fully one bundred fest. The ground was covered with the inflammable liquid, and the firemen did not dare to turn on water for fear of spreading it, so turned their attention to protecting the surrounding property. The fire continued to blaze until the fuel was ex- hausted. No buildings except the shed in which the gasoline was contained were in- jured. The loss wiil not exceced £75.
