Since the uncovering of the coffin at

thousand persons must have viewed

tinuous stream of people has been
flowing through the rotunda to view
the remains. 1t is estimated that full
ly twenty thousand people have thus
viewed the body since il was placed in
state six hours ago. This endless pro-
cession of people extends from beyond
the open space to the east front, ard

the glory of God and the good of man.
We thank Thee for the record of life
that is closed; for its heroic devotion
to principle. We thank Thee, o Lord,
that he was Thy servant; that he
preached Thee by a noble life and eX-
ample, and that we can say Of him
now: BLESSED are the dead who die in
the Lord; their works do follow them"
Now, Lord, 60 with this sOrrowing

bring us all at last to the morning that
has no shadows; the house that has no
tears; the land that has no death; for

On the Train.


A representative of the Times was
upon the funeral train from Long
Branch to Washington. The following
is his report of the journey: The
presidential funeral train drew out
slowly from the Francklyn cottage,
and, reaching Elberon station, came to
a halt. Here President Arthur was in
waiting, and the cabinet left their car
to meet him. He entered the third
car Of the funeral train set apart for
the use of the cabinet, accompanied by
General Grant and Secretary Blaine,
after whom closely followed Secre-
taries Window, Lincoln, and the re-
mainder of the cabinet. Then came
Col. Fred Grant and Mr.. Reed, Presi-
dent Arthur's private secretary. The
train at five minutes past 10 started
slowly on its way. 1t was under the
supervision Of Mr.. S. N. Provost, su.

Appearance of the Body,
woEFULLY WASTED.

WOEf ULL1 w ASIED.
The president was laid out in the
suit Of clothes which he wore on in
auguration day, his left hand laid across
his breast after the manner he had in
life. This was done to make his re-
semblance as near to life as possible.
The body is so greatly shrunken
that artificial means had to be resorted
to to give the clothes an appearance of
fitting. In addition to the natural
shrinking from his illness the opera
tion connected with the autopsy has
left the body in an even more emaciat-
ed state.
A plaster cast was taken OF his face
yesterday, as well as Of his right hand.
In taking the cast off his hand it was
somewhat discolored, so that this hand
will not be seen. The effect of the oil
used upon his face prior to taking the
cast dislgured the cast somewhat, and
slightly altered the color Of the face,
that the appearance is very much
less natural even than it was Just after
death. The president had a massive
head, and the large bones show very
prominently. His cheeks are fallen in.
The beard has been so arranged about
the parotid gland us to conceal that
scar, and such arrangements have been
made about the pillow us to still fur
ther conceal the swelling. The under
taker says that, in his opinion, it will

leaves here. The effects of the fluids

Vaccination

1t may rot be amiss at lhist time, threatened
as we are with d visit from the dread scourge,
smallpox, to look for a moment, at the means
preventive.
Dr.. Flint in his treatise Oh the principles
aud practices of medicine, says:
"Naccinia aud cow-pOx are the names of
: disease Of the COW, which communicated to
nlan, destroys, in a great majority OF cases,
for q certain period, the susceptibility to
smallpox, and, in the cases IN which it does
not oilel complete protection against the lat
ter disease, renders it as a rule, mild aud de-
void OF danger. Cow-pox is transferred to
man and from one person to another by the
Introduction Of a virus, and never, at a
distance, by infection. The operation for is
communication is called odcceadti0a. For
the employment Of vaccination as a means of
preventing smallpox, the world is ind,b ted
to the immortal JenneE. The discovery was
promulgated by Jennerin 1898, after a series
of observations aud experiments whic h had
occupied his attention for twenty years

STOCKS.

TIE decline which has been noticed in the
quotations Of The Alice stock in the New
York market for soiIe time past has been re-
markable, aud has originated a fear in our
midst that the reputation of this, which we
claim to be the richest mining camp on the
continent, might suffer abroad on account of
such depreciation. The latest quotations Of
the Alice are, December LIST, $3.50 asked, no
bidders, and there is on the streets to-day 8
report which gains credence from former low
quotat on, that a large block Of Alice stock
stock sold Yesterday in New York at $3.50.
Considerable speculation is INDUCED in con-
cerliing the cause Of his decline-whe,her
the principal holders are unloading the stock
or making a. deal, or whether the market for
mining stocks has been fistlened by the COL
lapse OF tie Robinson Consolidated and O her
Leadville properties. Alice s ock a. SO. 80 is
d good buy, and mining men here would
gladly invest in it al that price. he entire
stock at that figure would represent an actual
cash valua Of $l,40o, 900 for two good min
aud Improvements costing ever half a mil
lion dollars. If any lesson is TO be deduced
from this condition Of things it is, that The
New York Stock Exchaago is a poor place 10
work Butte mines. The Lexington mine
was recently sid for S 100000 and a certain
percentage of the stock to be issued thereon.
Shares Of stock il this mine are quoted on the
Paris market at So, which would place the
ratable value of the mine at IS 200, 900. In
the event that the buyers of this should
never realize on their investment, it is quite
possible that the accomplished Partisan
would want no more of stock in Butte mines.
There is in the matter more than appears
on the SUI face. The interests of every man
in the community are, 10 q greater extent
than is commonly appreciated, involved in
these matter. The owner of real estate
does not like to be con fronted with any sus-
picion that his property is liable to shrink IN
value oue-ha}t. The holder Of undeveloped
mining property does not like to contemplate
a state Of things that will forbid the sale of
his property or shut him cut from getting

upon soTne stock board and worked by out-

And so would he probably retort upon the
Inter Mountain were he now living. Al
though Horace might make the charge with
some force of plausibility, the business man
ager and both of the editors OF the Inter
Mountain being of English birth, 1t would
not be seriously entertained that the Inter
Mountain is an organ of Her Majesty, al
though these sentences from the article re-
ferrrd to might seem to bear that construc-
ton: "iL is very evident that a class who
buy their implements, tlleir clothing, their
