MEMORIAL DAY ’ Memorial Day was not set ; >de exclusively for a bank holiday, nor even for a double-header at the base-ball park. It is a day ■which in its majestic significance ranks close to Easter itself. In the year ISfiK Major General John A. Logan, then Commander-in-chief of the Grand Army of the Republic, introduced a Memorial without form or substance, based upon sentiment alone and dedicated it to every soul that ever “suffered, sacrificed or served’’ in defense of home, our native land, the enforcement of law and order and the preservation of the unity of the United States of America. The conception of this order was rublime and appealed to the highest sense of the nation at I large, then stagger* hg under the appalling losses of th’e war of the Rebellion. Trm mystic chords of memory, stretching from the of battle fields and millions of patriotic grav '■ dhtriiwh d a’’, over our great nation, to every home and hearth within ts boundaries. compelled instant appr -v I al of the Memorial thus inaugurated. All home loving, law abiding and patriotic citizens.enthusiastically and universally endorsed it; many of the states legalized it, and at this time »t is nationally accepted and observed as the silent. Vbt eloquent M< - ■morial of the Grand Army of the liepublic, and o; every s al tiatj ever “sacrificed, suffered or served” in behalf of the unity of our native land and its institutions. If you who stayed at heme, or you, who went and returned could v ’ leep and ask cf them whv they gave their lives, what would be the. splendid chorus of these halo d dead. Go to God’s Acre yourself. Stand before the tomb of him who died at Saratoga, or at Gettysburg, or on the scarlet hills of Champagne and ifi alb faith and humility ask him to answer. No need to write his answer. It will be written in your heart. God grant you heed that 'n.-wer. and on this Memorial Dav guu.e your conduct as to make him glad that he died for America and you. FIND INDIAN DONES AT TIPPEU \ NOE LA KE On the shores of Lake Tippecanoe, a few miles east of Leesburg, a gang of workmen who have been cutting down a steep hill to make a fill along the lake at a point known as French landing. have unearthed a number of Indian skeletons which are now on exhibition in a store of Leesburg. The banks of Tipnecanoe Lake, and the surrounding country, -were once the happv hunting grounds of several tribes of Indians. A short distance west of the lake lies Oswego, a small town built up where an old Indian settlement formerly stood. Rohr and Bell, summer resort men. and proprietors of the Stonv Ridge hotel, who are developing a new addition of lots at French landing, believe thev will disinter other relies and •marks of Indian habitation before thev have finished the grade work. The bones found in the hilLside were well preserved. They had been buried, deep in a gravel bed. Since no relics or articles of earthenware were found in the graves, much speculation has arisen as to the burial rites of the Indians that inhabited this section. The Miami Indians of the Wabash valley were accustomed to bury the earthlv effects of a warrior with him, it is said. \ . ’ o “ BIRTHS A son was bom on Wednesday, May 21, to Mr. and Mrs. Will Har•vey, living on South Main Street.
