funeral escort was furnished by the military regiments of the city. Many distinguished citizens joined the cortege, and the scene, as the long line of dead and mou nsrs wended it's way to Greenwood cemetery, was most i'm. pressive. The weather was extremely cold, but it did not keep thoIisands from taking part in the sad and solemn cefemonies. The officers of Greenwood cemetery devoted four lots in a pronin ent part Of the cemetery for last rest ing c5 for these dead, and in this lot tren ~51rteen feet wide and seven feet deep was dug, leaving center plot thirty feet in diameter for 8 monument which the city of Brooklyn will erect. The digging of the grave was fnished just as the procession reached the grounds, and the cofins were lifted out and deposited in the trench, two deep all around it. Impressive services followed, and as these closed, cut short by the cold, the crowd dis persed, and the grave diggers finished their work. Out of respect for the sad occasion, the business houses of the city were generally closed during the time the services took place.

FIFTEEN MONTHS for s4,
His Picture.

The painter Vernet related that some body once employed him to paint a landscape with a cave and St. Jerome in it. But when he delivered the picture, the purchaser, who understood nothing of prospective, said "The landscape and the cave are we'll made, but St. Jerome is not in the cave"
 "I understand you, returned Vernet 'I will alter it.
 He took the painting and made the shade darker, so that the saint seemed to cit further back. When the gentle man next saw the painting, it again ap peared to him that the saint was not in the cave. Vernet then painted out the figure and returned the picture to the gentleman, who seemed perfectly satis fled. Whenever he showed the picture to strangers, he said /: "Here you have a picture by Vernet, with St. Jerome ir his cave."
 "But we do not see the saint," ob iected the visitors.
 "Excuse me, gentlemen" returned the pcssessor; che is there, for l have seen him standing at the entrance. and afterward further back, andam therefore quite sure that he is in ths cave."

Some Shame Left.

An old man was charged with stealing horse at Ballston, N. r., and was sen tenced to two and one-half years in the Slate prison. The judge, touched with compassion, addressed few kind words to him, suggesting that portion of the sentence could be remitted if his friends and family: would come forward and testify to his previous good character. There was gleam of hope in the old mans face, but it soon faded away. He shook his head, and in trembling voice replied that he would rather suffer the entire penalty than to allow his friends to know how deep was the disgrace that had fallen upon him.

And here, in the center, buried deep, Under this blackened, smoking heap, Are human bodies-none may know How many there, are lSing low Bodies crisp, begrimed and charred, With limbs distorted, faces marred, Burned in the playhouse, evil-starred. Not one of those who came to see
 The actors mimic grief Portray, Could guess how stern tragedy
 Would end the sorrow -burdened play. And who shall toll their terrible fate?
 The hungry flames, like hungry fend, Kissed, and roared, and greedily ate
 The flesh from the bones of those who
 screened, F4'om the etiding smoke and horrible heat
 Their blinded eyes. with arms upraised- Then died in their agony. Who shall repeat The torture of those who, stricken and
 dazed,
 Fell, crushed and mangled under the feet
 Of the surging, struggling, maddered mass, Fighting it's way through the narrow pass i? An, what a fearful struggle was that Which the fierce, hot love of life begat A struggle for self, battle for breath, In the facs If torturous, fiery death. What shrieks of anguish rent the air; What moans and groans of grim despair; What desperation and despair Was pictured in that awful glare Aud here are the bodies, blaokened and charred, Friends and fathers, wives and mothers, | Husbands, children, eisto rs, brothers, l Limbs distorted, faces marred, Burned in the playhouse, evil-starred. 1 Tears for the dead whoee bodies lent l Fuel for deaths grim sacrament.

THE SITE OF THE EXPLORATIONS,
 Mycen@, the scene of this terrible tragedy, was an ancient town in Argolis,
 about six miles to the northeast of Ar l gos, and is situated or a little hill at the head of narrow valley. During the reign of AgamemDon it was considered the chief city in the PelopoDnesus, but after the Dorian invasion it ceased to be a place of much importance. It con- tinued, however, to be an independent 1 town unti! the year 468 B. c when it was attacked by the Argivea, who, hay ing reduc, d the inhabitants by famine,

 lions at either side, is there up to the
