men can rally around him so many ear
nest friends.
FUNERAL OF GEN. Ed. F. ScHNEIDER.
Notwithstanding Che lowering weather,
the funeral of the late General Schneider
was very largely attended on Sunday BY
the people from this city. Not less than
one hundred Free Masons and members
of Hart Post G. A. R. went from here by
the special train of cars which was obtained
through the energy Of C. 81. Tinker, N.
NJ, OF Clinton Lodge, in this city, besides
those who went in carriages. We noticed
in the procession, IN addition to the socie-
ties we have named, the very Handsome
Company of Zouaves, drilled, as We are
informed, by Capt Broatch, late Of the u.
S. army. Their soldierly bearing gave
evidence that they had been instructed BY
some one 'schooled IN the art Of war"
The long line of carriages, and the hosts
of persons in attendance attested not only
the worth of Gen. Schneider, but the de-
gree Of esteem in which his memory is
held by his friends and neighbors. q
l. He had served as Colonel Of the 6th
Kansas volunteers in the war Of the re
bellion, and when his services ended on
the field, returned to his native county,
was elected to the House Of Representa-
tives, and then received the appointment
