The San Francisco Chronicle pub
fishes the following account of the fun
era1 of a spiritualist named Henry
Chase:
Henry was the last surviving son of
Mrs. Chase, a spiritualist medium of
this city, and well known among the
sect. After a severe illness of several
weeks. the young man expired of con
sumption, and his last request was that
his mother should conduct the funeral
according to their ritual. aud his wishes
were respected. The coffin was COM
posed of common redwood lumber.
covered with velvet, and the inside
trimmed with white silk No orna-
ments was discernible about the box.
The body was dressed similarly, in
white robes and white necktie. White
flowers wire strewn around the coffin.
The room in which the body lay await
ing burial was beautiful Around the
walls were white roses, on the table at
the head of the coffin was a large vase
containing a small rosebush. At the
base of the vase was Il half-blown rose,
which had been plucked from the bush
ana had fallen to the ground. II was
emblomatic Of the young life, SO full of
promise and beauty, nipped in the bud
and falling to decay at the root.
The services were conducted by The
mother, who was dressed in white al
paca, without trimmings or ornaments.
The ceremonies deeply impressed the
spectators, ana were opened by Mrs
Beach singing the we'll known poem
written by Mrs. G. Clark, the medium.

then addressed the assemblage at some
length, eXtolling the virtues OF her son,
and adding that it was his express de.
sire, both before and after death, that
he should be buried i'll that manner.
Mrs. Beach then sang poem entitled
beautiful Hills which she alleges
had been given to her by some departed
friend. The coffin was then placed in a
heafse and borne to the cemetery. At
the grave the services consisted of
prayer by Mrs. Beach Mrs. Chase

had had several interviews with him.
While she was preparing the c6rpse for
burial, he appeared and said that che
did not think he would make such an
ugly looking corpse" adding other
Jocular remarks. She continued, that

The Growing Crops.

The crop prospects tor this season
are encouraging, notwithstanding the
length and backwardness of seed-time
An exchange publishes the following
report:
"A careful study of the wheat re-
ports rom Virginia, Maryland, North
and South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama,
Kentucky, Tennessee, Ohio, Indiana
and Illinois shows that the yield of
this important staple promises to be
quite equal to the average, while the
same is true of Missouri, Minnesota
and Wisconsin, not including Califor-
MIA, in which it promises to be extraor-
dinarily large. In Delaware and West
Virginia the outlook is uupromising,
and neither Texas nor Arkansas APP
pears to make much of show. In
Kansas the crop is coming out much
better than was anticipated. In nearly
all the wheat-growing states consider
ably larger area has been sown than
ever before, and, upon the whole, a
careful review of the situation shows
that, although there may be entire
failures in some states and but thin
crops in others, yet, taking the coun-
try in general, the present Indications
of an average crop are quite favor
able.
