At the eernetery the throng gathered around the resting place of two well-known soldier whoHleep In that "city of the dead." They were" those of Alfred Farley, captain of Company West Virginia cavalry, and Lieut. George of Company I), 110th Pennsylvania Infantry.

Here the nana! 0. A. H. services were performed and the ceremony of decorating these two grates, Miss Teresa llerllhy re-olted beautiful Little Josle Shannon also recited a patriotic poem appropriate to the occasion. James Tullock wot Introduced and delivered ona of the finest impromptu orations erer heard In this place on an occasion of this kind, ttwas received With word of praise by both the blue and tbsgrny who were met there to commemorate their dead, The speaker was only a plain farmer of Scottish birth, but by adoption a trueltn American citizen as though such by birth.

While yet youth he was so thoroughly Imbued With a lore of freedom that he left bl native heath and taJna to America to fight for the old flag and principles It represented, and served faithfully through the war of th Ile-belllcn, Though he make no proton, tlons to scholarly attainments, he Is on of nattflrjr own td jia this occasion, with a subject which It ever nearest his heart, he proved himself tft peer of any who had preceded him on the decoration days of the past, The service at the cemetery closed With th decoration of all soldiers' (raves, regardless of the color of the uniform they wore during the four yean of deadly strife wherein the life of our great republic was Imperilled, lint the bitterness of that terrible struggle for a nation's existence has already faded away, and to-day the men ho fought valiantly fur the life of the republic and those who fought with equal valor for what they deemed their rights, meet In peace and harmony to my their tribute to the dead, The dead sleep side by side In peace, and the living Imitate their example. Year by year the acrimony which too often characterised the conduct of men In battle, Is gradually dying out, and It Is but a question of A few more years When It will entirely disappear. "1 tun So MfiMlf," Ths Ole Olson company exhibited- bets last Monday night to crowded house. Not another person could have been puked In without crowding out some other Individual. ihls company bad been highly recomended, and the people who paid their money that night bad a right to expect something In return.

Wherever this troupe has exhibited In the Hills only one journal ha had the "coutags of Its convic tions" to give the company an honest measurement. The Iliipld City Jour denounced the whole thing ns a fiike, with the single exception of the character Ole Olson, which the Journal "loiight was a good Imitation of the kwedisb greenhorn. If so, It must have been much better performed at llupid than it was In gpearfish. The citizens of Spearflsh are refined and intelligent, capable of discerning between a renly meritorious performance and one largely characterized by vulgarity. The appreciation of the performances of Monday night may be estimated by (lis reception the company met It appearance on the following night.

The doors opened at the usual hour, and at o'clock not more than twenty-fir tickets had been sold. The manager declared the thing "olf," and the company went back to the hotel. It is not probable that the Ole Olson troupe will in any hurry to visit Spearfisb again. 0 CapM's Capon, Chicago papers say that Mies Jean Cowgill, formerly of Spearflsli, was recently married to W.
