Of thing, he was sharp enough TO
keep out of the way Of the law and
his followers became victims. All
meetings and professions similar
to those held by Cohen were riot
GUS and dastardly; the property
and lives of the people were endan-
gered and should death result from
any of these proceedings, each fol-
lower of Cohen would be answera-
Gle for homicide. 1t should be
stopped. The workingmen could
gain nothing. He concluded by
saying that the accused was one
of Cohen's victims who had
become worked into feeling of
riot because of his teachings and
was somewhat excusable. He
would only fine him $40 or In de-
fault thirty daysin Jail. The fine
was paid by Cohen. Cohen called
on the Superintendent of Police
this morning to inquire If he could
hold meeting tonight at the
City Hall. The Superintendent in
formed him that he had no author
ity to give him permission, as the
City Hall was under the charge of
the United States Marshal. While
Cohen was talking with the Super
intendent an order came from the
District Com missioners directing
tho Superintendent not to allow
any more disorderly demonstra-
tions anywhere. Orders were
promptly issued and the police are
dispelling crowds wherever found.

MOURNING CUSTOMS.

The ancients had queer ideas about
mourning for the dead.
The Egyptian women ran through the
streets crying, with their bosoms exposed
and their hair disordered
The Lycians regarded mourning as I'M
manly, and they compelled men who went
into mourning to put on female garments.
In Greece, when popular General died,
the whole army cut off their hair and the
names of their horses.
At the present day, the Arabian women
stain their hands and feet with indigo,
which they suffer to remain eight days
They also carefully abstain from milk du-
ring this time, on the ground that its white
color does not accord with the gloom of
their minds.
In China the mourning color is white.
Mourning for parent or husband is re-
quircd there by law, under penalty of
sixty blows and a years Punishment. When
the Emperor dies, all his subjects let their
hair grow for hundred days.
In the Fcjce Islands, on the tenth day of
mourning the women scourge all the men
except the highest chiefs. Another fash
ionabc custom there requires the friends
and relatives of the deceased to assemble
on the fourth day after the funeral and pic
turc to themselves the amount Of corruption
the corpse has sustained by that time.
In the Sandwich Islands persons DESTROYS
Of going into mourning paint the lower
part of their faces black, and knock out
their front teeth. No doubt this causes II
very sincere kind Of mourning for tho pres.
ont time u.
