Show Monument Is Dedicated By B. H. Roberts Over Grave of Henry James. Doings in Logan Cemetery. At the cemetery Wednesday many people laid (lowers upon the graves of loved ones gone before, and late In the evening most of tho plots bore lloral oilcrlnRS An occasional Hag marked the resting place of one of the nation's heroes and it Is pleasing to note that not one of these were neglected. Though the day was rpurky, tho roads bad, and the cemetery grounds very rauddy,the service over tho grave of Henry James was carried out. The Fifth ward choir sung, and IS. II. Roberts delivered an address, Capt. I St) or, and the cadets fioni the Agii-cultural Agii-cultural College, with their artillery, tired tho customary salulcs.and decorated decor-ated the soldier's graves Until late people were coming and going to tho cemetery, and it may be said that there was a general obseiv-ancc obseiv-ancc of the day. A drive about the cemetery brings a regret that the city can not afford to employ men to keep tho cemetery In the best condition. While the streets arc laid olt very nicely and many of tho Braves receive attention, many mote are neglected by tho friends and relatives rela-tives who neither pay for attention nor give It themselves. As a result, the ccmeteiy .appears to great disadvantage. |
