MARCH OF THE OLD
SOLDIERS.
Once more the veterans of the Civil
War have passed through our streets
In their memorial parade and, al
though it is .S) years since the w.ir
closed, there wore 32 of the old sol
diers strong enough to join in the
march from the City Hall to thfl
Knights of Pythias building on (irant
avenue
The survivors of that great army
were the young and the strong of
those days of long ago But the years
are overtaking them and not many
more Decoration Days will be ob
served until the last of the preserv
ers of the union shall be called Yet
a nation, thankful for their deeds of
heroism and sacrifice, will continue
to remember them and their graves
too will be decorated.
The "old boys" link us to the past
and are p living reminder of the
bloodiest struggle in the history of
nations They are a further remind
or that the deepest animosities can
bo wiped out bv time In many of
the parades to today, the Confeder
ates Join with the Union soldiers. Thi6
has been the practice In Ogden, the
Southern veterans being invited to
parficipatp in the ceremonies.
INVENTOR OF FLYING
MACHINE.
The country had quite n laugh
when Dr. S P. Langley of the Smith
sonlan Institution in 1897 attempted
to fly in o heavier-tban-air machine
which he had constructed and con
veyed to an island in the Potomac
river The newspaper men who wero
present did not spare the old man
the humility of describing in detail
his failure. But on Thursday last,
at Elmira, New York, Glenn Curtis, the
aviator, flew in "Langley's folly." and
demonstrated that, after all. Langle)
was the inventor of the flying ma
chine
A report of the event says:
The crude flying machine, which fell
into the Potomac river when Dr
Langley. f t b Inventor, attempted to fly
In it. was wheeled from Its hanger
early thl6 morning, the pilot immedi
ately climbed into the seat and was
away under much the same conditions
as would prevail In a flight of the
latest model aeroplane The High'
was short but successful.
The Langley machine but little re
sembles the trim and powerful flyers
of today, but, in Its crudp state, it
combines the basic principles of avia
tion, and after many years of neglect
the "old junk" comes into Its own.
giving Its aged inventor his deserved
place among the recognized pioneers
of aviation
Langley made the one fatal error of
trying to catapult the flyer Into th
air with the aid of ponderous springs,
but he only succeeded in wrecking
the machine. Had he tried the method
pursued today of running the machine
along the ground and allowing it 10
rise gradually In the air. there Is lit
tle doubt he would have made the
first flight In a heavier than air ma
chine. The antiquated machine was sent
to Hammondsport about two months
ago. Scarcely a change was made in
its parts The surface of the wings
which had suffered from long stor
age, were replaced Other minor parts
replaced were duplicates of the ori
ginal. The machine was driven on
Thursday by the old motor built by

EM-FOUR RECEIVE
DIPLOMAS FROM
HIGH SCHOOL
i , i -
Amid the plaudits of their many
relatives and friends, sixty of Og
den s charming daughters and twenty-four
of her stalwart Bons received
their certificates of graduation from
the hand6 of Superintendent J. M.
Mills, near the close of the most aus
picious event In which thus far in
their lives they had ever been par-
j ticipants
The event was the twenty-second
I annual commencement exercises of
the Ogden high school, held In the
Orpheum theater. The graduates,
I eighty-four in number, were seated
j semi-circle of chairs three rows; the
young ladles tastefully gowned in
white and the. young men In black
suits, with white necktleB. A number
of palms and large bouquets of peo
riies artistically arranged, together
with an immense O. H. S pennant,
formed a background and a number
of pennants won by the class, during
its four years at the school were
draped In prominent positions on the
wings of the stage setting and over
the front of the boxes. The whole
formed one of the most charming
pictures ever seen on the Orpheum
stage and when tho curtain was rais
ed for the opening number, the audi
ence broke into an ovation of applause.
The Ogden high school orchestra,
under the direction of Marilla Hun
ter, opened the exercises with an ap
propriate and well played selection
and the Invocation was offered by
Rev. H. D. Zimmerman, The third
number was the singing by the class
of the following "Class song" the
words and music of which were com
posed by Miss Mattle Guernsey for
the occasion :
Come and Join the farewell song of
school,
Homage to our Alma Mater pay,
Come and pledge with hearts and
voices too
Love for dear old O H. S today.
Raise the golden cup of memory.
Drain its sparkling waters to the
depths
Where, mixed with crystal grains of
1 happines '
Wc taste, at parting bitter sweet
regreL
Here's to Ogden High school,
May she live to build
A future greaL upon a past
With high achievement filled
And may her students' loyal pride
Ne'er grow dim or slack.
But burn forever with staunch love
Tor the Orange and the Black!
So. hail to our happy school days
Youth's strong gallant buoy.
In years to come we'll ne'er forget
Their meauro in our joy.
Come and Join thp farewell song of
school.
Homage to our Alma Mater pay.
Come and pledge with hearts and
voices too
Love for dear old O. H. S. alway.
Now we join the world's tumultuous
swell,
To paths of fame and glory hi
Again, dear guardian of our youthful
dreams.
To thee, denr Ogden High,
Good yc, goodbye.
At its conclusion, the number was
roundly applauded
The salutatory by Sidney Winter
followed and without question or an
undue desire to flatter, it must he
said that In delivery was one of the
best that has been given at a com
mencement in recent years Mr Win
ter had his subject well in hand and
spoke his thoughts in a strong, clear
tone of voice, with excellent enuncia
tion and in a convincing manner At
the conclusion of his talk, he received
a well deserved nnd enthusiastic
round of applause
A double quartette composed of the
Misses Oertel Rich, Katherlne Falck
Ruth Douglass and Gertrude Weather
by and Messrs Leland Tribe Harmon
Barton. Byron hittemorc and
Claude Farr gave a rendition of the
song, "My Heart at Thy Dear Voice.'
from "Samson nnd Delilah,' by Saint
Saens.
The next number was the declama
tion "Gentlemen! The King' ' by
Robert Barr, given by Miss Lillian
Plygare To dwell upon the merit of
Miss Flygare's rendition of the num
ber, would be but to repeat the many
compliments she has received in sim
ilar work during her term at the
high school. She received hearty ap
plause at Its close.
Another of the pleasing number?
was the playing Schubert s "Marche
Militalre." by a trio composed of the
Misses Mary Parmley, violin; Helen
Hunter, cello, and Mattie Guernsey,
piano The number was rendered In
excellent manner and was well re
ceived
Miss Ruth Johnson, the valedicto
rian of the class, had chosen for the
theme ol her address, "Music and Its
Appreciation ' In the composition
she brought out the happiness exist
ent in the life of an individual or a
people in whose hearts dwelt a love
for the divine art, In a manner that
showed hpr to possess not only a
rarely artistic temperament, but much
literary ability. While the first part
of her talk could not he heard all
over the auditorium, but her expres
sion of thought soon brought the
audience into close attention, so that
most of the address was heard by all
and her efforts received marked rec
ognition in hearty applause at the
conclusion.
Following the valedictory came the
event long anticipated by the grad
uatlng class, the presentation of the
diplomas. Preparatory to this feature.
Principal Henry Peterson, on behalf
of the faculty, formally Introduced
the class to the board of education,
which was seated In two of the low
er boxes, and the audience. His talk
was brief but to the point In part,
he said that the class was the larg-j
est one In the history of the school
and each member had sixteen or,
more units to his or her credit He
also said that the members were both
morallv and intellectually worthy and
they were known at the school as;
"The class that did things '
Preceding the performance of his!
official duty Superintendent Mills
stated that It was pleasure to him to
be able to act in such a capacity for
so large a class, that he was proud
of the graduates, that he knew they
felt pnjud of their having been found
worthy of graduation and that their
parents also felt proud of their ac
i complisbrnnt.
The diplomas, which were each
' neatly tied with a long bow of orange
and black silk ribbon, were present
j ed and each member of the class re
' ceived a goodly round of applause in
accepting the reward of the four
years' study
The closing number was the sing
ing of the "Ogden high school song," j
by the graduating class and the audi- j
ence.
The following composed the grad
uating class;

j REFUGEES IN 'FRISCO TELL THRILLING I
I STORIES OF ESCAPE FROM MEXICANS
Walter Neal and his children.
Thrilling refugee stories vr.?re brought to San Francisco a few davs
ago by forty passengers who arrived from Mexican ports on the Pacific
Mail steamer Newport. Among the refugees was Walter Neal, mine man
ager, who told of a battle for hours with Mexican rebels at the El Favor
mine in the state of Jalisco. Two of the mining partv, an Englishman and
an American, were killed before the federals came and drove the rebels
away.
