Rain Interfered

Rain Interfered .

MISSOULA, May 30. - [ Special. ] -Disagreeable weather to-day somewhat interfered with the memorial services. The programme as announced was not carried out in full. Sunshine and rain, in fitful alternation, followed each other throughout the day, and it was early decided to abandon the parade. In the forenoon flowers were strewn on the graves of soldiers. In the afternoon the exercises consisted of speaking and music at the court house square. Short speeches were made by Gen. Sloane and W. H. H. Dickinson followed by Major Camp. Mrs. Francis Moore delivered a beautiful address on behalf of the Woman's Relief Corps. Music was furnished by the Twenty-fifth infantry band.
