OUR DEAD
Are Lovingly Remembered By
the People.'
DECORATION DAY OBSERED
Hundreds of School Children in
the Line of March—The
Program In Full.
Yesterday was an ideal day and the
memorial exercises were an entire suc
cess. It is but once a year that the
people set apart a day to honor her dead
soldiers with befitting ceremony, but
with each passing year that makes the
time of hope and grim despair in the
south a softer memory, the younger
generations devotion to their chivalrous
ancestors increases.
The procession did not commence the
march from opposite the Baptist church
until 4 o’clock. A splendid band headed
the procession. Members of the Knights
of Pythias band, and several of Cedar
town’s excellent musicians assisted in
the work. Next came the members of
the Floyd county confederate veterans
association. The Hill City Cadets in
full uniform,Capt. Phil G. Byrd. Rome
Light Guards in full uniform, Capt.
Will A. Patton. Carriages containing
the members of the Ladies Memorial
Association. Then came the public
school, with the teachers in charge of the
different grades. It was a beautiful
sight to see nearly 500 children in holi
day attire, and with beautiful bouquets
of flowers.
The ceremony on Myrtle Hill was
very imprssive and appropriate. The
opening hymn was sung under the direc
tion of Mr. C. E. Patton and Mrs. W.
H. McHenry presided at the organ. The
music was especially fine duringthe even
ing and was an attractive feature. It
was originally intended to have four ad
dresses, but Capt. R. G. Clark and Mr.
W. O. Connor declined,, and A. B. S.
Moseley and Mr. William, A. Wright
made addresses.
Capt. Moseley spoke for about twenty
minutes and his words glowed with
eloquence and feeling for the fallen
heroes. Among he things he said were
the following beautiful thoughts:
Though they have fallen and their nation
is dead and their flag furled, the pre
cepts for which they fought, bled and
died are founded in right, justice and
truth, and the memery of these precepts
and their brave defenders, thank God,
can never die.
He advocated in warm words the build
ing, in some central historical battle field
three monuments, the central one
commemoration of the Southland sol
diers, who died on the battle field, the
one on the riht to the memory of the
brave women, who suffered patiently
and uncomplainingly through the four
dark years of strife, and the one on the
left to the loyal slaves, who nobly sacri
fice their lives in defense of those they
loved.
The graves were tenderly covered over
with flowers, a salute was fired by the
military companies and decoration day
of 1894 was a memory.

' ‘A Voice fiom the Cradle.’’—The Burden
Which Women Bear Alone.
The W. C. T. U. Convention will
convene in our city soon with more than
a hundred women as delegates. They
come for the purpose of a concert prayer,
and an organized system of work against
the growing evils of Intemperance.
That it is increasing, we have only to
point to the Keeley Institutes, asylums
for inebriates, and other institions
planted to rescue its victims from the
fell destroyer. There is a proverb: “An
ounce of.s preventive is worth a pound
of cure.”
The purity and happiness of the home
stand trembling in urgent appeal, there
fore the necessity for work, woman’s
combined however, crystalized intu the
W. C. T. U. Convention.
But now comes the Babies remon
strance, “Mamma please don’t leave
me’ ’ comes from tiny sweet lips as the
little soft white arms are entwined about
the mother’s neck. Somebody that’s
kind and true and tender must stay
with baby and children. The little one
can’t tell if an indifferent nurse snould
leave it to take care of itself, or frighten
it into an agony of terror while she en
tertains her beau in the kitchen. There
is nobody like mother to listen to every
cry and soothe every pain. Babies must
have loving hearts and tender hands to
watch for their interests, if they thrive,
so God ordained home and mother. The
W. C. T. U. young mothers are al
ways excused, provided they send in a
contribution to pay for an active worker
in their place.
At the National W. C. T. U. in
Wasville some years ago, a strong com
mittee woman brought an infant into all
the sessions. It was very much petted
and fondled till I think it must have
gone home with sore bones. But that
was no place for a baby. The quiet
home, with all its conveniences; the
shady lawn and home faces around, is
the true place for women and babies.
About a year ago an earnest mother
left home and spent an entire morning
in one of the W. C. T. U. sessions.
Upon her return, passing into the gate,
she saw her three bright-eyed little boys
out with a parcel of dirty street gamin,
throwing stones at the passers by whom
they thought it would do to attack. She
heaved a deep sighand thought “OI
wish the men might, could, would, or
should attend to this matter and let the
women stay at home.” Somebody must
thwart this evil, all will admit. Sup
pose a family circle were gathered
around the home altar and a rattlesnake
should unfold its coils across the thresh
hold, and make for the cradle, who
■would expect the mother to gather a
stick or axe and with feeble, uncertain
aim, mutilate the monster? It would be
the father, if he had any manliness in
him, who would make quick, sure work
of destroying the enemy. Poor women,
they have had to learn to cook and nurse
and do the work of two or three servants
in Ante Belluni times, and now 7 surely
they’ll not fight the Liquor traffic with
out help and sympathy. They make no
complaint of the new work, and it must
be remembered that its just as hard for
them to go into a hot kitchen, handle
heavy pots and kettles as it is for men to
go to the field and plow.
Its no use to assault the barkeeper
with ugly words. They are generally
men who don't take much interest in
the immortal soul for themselves or any
other. They follow 7 their business to
make money. Its the patronage by
church members, and men high in office,
where the harm comes in. If a majority
of these good people sustain the bar
tender’ by ballot and social glass, of
course he’ll follow his business without
any gnawings of conscience. They usu
ally give generously, when called upon
for charities. Its the patronage they
get that strikes the death blow 7 to the
peace of home and the immortal soul.
We once knew a groggery start up in a
small country store. A widowed
mother was in great and sorrowful
anxiey lest her boy, when his crops
were gathered, should lounge around
and take social glass with his neighbor
111 it grew to drunkenness. But than! s
be unto God and glory to his name, (for
it was by the influence of Christian men)
nobody would buy the liquor and the
groggery had .to close for w 7 ant of patron
age. This is one of the truest ways, in
which the men can help the women—
cut off the patronage to the saloon.
If the chucrh of the living God would
unite its influence against intemperance
—the shadows and thick darkness of the
e > 7 il would disappear as bef< re tie noon
day sun. It W’ould be like the Saviour’s
“Peace, be still” to the midnight storm
and raging billow 7 .
Now brethren and sisters, help these]
Godly women who are coming among us
with pure and holy purpose. They al
ways leave a community inspired to
higher resolves. If they are not doing
the work in a right way, you just take
hold and show them a better way»
Don’t stand off and criticise. They do
not pretend to do anything in their own
strength, but in the strength of Him
who said, Not by might, nor by pow 7 er,
but by my Spirit saith the Lord of
osts.” . MATRON.
WHO WILL IT BE?
Several Names Mentioned to Fill the Place
of Councilman McDonald.
Since the unexpected resignation of
Councilman M. G. McDonald of the sec
ond ward, there has been much specula
tion in the city as to who would be the
candidates to fill the unexpired term.
Capt. Thompson Hiles has been urged
by his numerous friends to enters the race
but has not yet consented to do so.
Capt. M. A. Nevin was seen by the
Tribune, but declined positively to be a
candidate, but suggested James Douglas
as a good man for the place.
Messrs. Blount Hamilton and D. W.
Curry have both been suggested in this
connection, but as neither of the gentle
men could be seen last night, it is not
known what their ideas are concerning
the matter.
Several others have been mentioned
and as the election occurs the 26th of
this month it is probable that some of the
parties named will enter the race.

” Castoria is the best remedy for children of

far distant, when mothers will consider the real
interest of their children, and use Castoria in
stead of the various quack nostrums which are
destroying their loved ones, by forcing opium,
morphine, soothing syrup and other hurtful
agents down their throats, thereby sending
them to premature graves.”
