MEMORIAL SERVICES
IN MEMORY OF LELAND STAN.
FORD, JR.
A Tribute to the Late Son of Gov.
ernor Stanford-Address by
Rev. DIR. Newman.

The memorial services for Leland STAN
ford, Jr., were held in Grace Church, at
San Francisco, yesterday at II A. NJ The
house was filled to the utmost long before
the time appointed, and great numbers who
came were unable to gain admission. The
floral decorations for the occasion were ex-
quisitely elegant, and while one NAV not
speak Of flower dressing as imposing,
vet the architecture of the center
piece justifies it. 1t stood in the center
of the chancel some fifteen in hight, was
about eight feet in width and of like depth
1t consisted of four floral posts supporting
two floral arches, connected by ridge and
two side pieces Hanging over these
from the ridge and trailing down
the sides was a wealth OF smilax
lightly woven into bands The compost
ton of the decorations was japonicas, cloth
of gold roses, st. Joseph lilies and immor-
telles, with smilaX and maiden-hair ferns
woven between as relief. The apex of the
frontal arch was surmounted by an exquis-
itely arranged floral crown, and that in
turn by dove wrought in flowers of
driven white. Depending from the frontal
arch were three arched bands, bearing in
FLOWERS OF WHITE,
On ground of green, the words Z" In Me-
moriam, Leland Stanford, Jr.," and be-
meath these swung the emblems of faith
and hope. AT the entrance to this beautiful
structure lay a pillow of camelbas, white
roses, maiden-hair fern, and other
choice flowers and foliage the edge
studded with richly-tinted camelias
Upon this in viOlets were the words, AT
Rest About midway of the floral bower
described stood massive cross, some six
feet in hight. The body, or ground, was
of evergreens the outline clearly defined
with smilax; the filling mass of choice
white flowers, relieved by slender
scarlet and crimson leaves and
flowers that fairly burned in the
midst of buds and full-blossomed

WE WANT TO KNOW.

We should be happy in the personal &C
quaintance Of the Jolly covey who makes
up the Associated Press dispatches from
Washington We should like to stand face
to face with this mythical personality, or
watch the play of his handsome features as
he writes some of the interesting little items
with such obscure meaning-such far
fetched significance a. often emanates from
his pen. We should like to watch the play
of his noble features in order that we might
determine whether witicism or an imbe-
cility is intended. Here is one of July sd :
Commissioner of Indian Affairs Price re-
turned TO this city Washington to-day
from Pittsburg. Speaking of the Conven-
said he did not know what the Prohibi-
tionists were going to do" Whether the
Commissioner of indian Affairs mistook
the Convention assembled at Pittsburg for
a wild tribe of Apachcs, and thought it his
duty 10 investigate them officially or
whether the administration sent Mr.. Pric
as an expert in negotiations with Sayages
on behalf Of the Republican party, or
whether in the Judgment of the Associated
Press agent at Washington it is essential
that Mr. Prices ignorance of what the Pro
hibitonists were going to do should be
tclegraphed to ffty-six millions of people,
or what other considt ration moved the said
agent TO burden the wires with this news,
we now declare in the most unmisiakable
terms, and without fear of the personal or
other responsibility involved, that We do
not care whoop-in-Hades whether Com
missioner Price returned to Washington or
staid in Pittsburg. and above everything
else land we say this with lofty deiiance),
we do not care whether Mr.. Price does or
does not know what the Prohibitionists arc
going TO do. We do not know who Mr.
Price may be, where he may hail from,
what his anteccdents may be. In short
we never heard of Commissioner of Indian
Price, or a high Price, or a reasonable
Price bat when a man returns from Pitts
burg to Washington, and is asked concern
ing political convention, he is bound by
every consideration of ethics. morals, good
breeding and political sagacity, to know
something. And when in utter disregard
of ali the proprieties of the situation he
boldly admits that he does not know what
the Prohibitionists are going to do, the
crime he commits is in furnishing the
agent of the Associated Press at Washing
ton with villianous opportunity to be a
tirst-class ass, and telegraph this absence of
knowledge throughout the length and
breadth of the land.

ARCTIC RESEARCH.

While the country is at this time very
generally declaring against any further
Arctic expeditions as improbable, and I'M
necessary sacrifices of valuable lives, it may
be taken rs certain that new Polar cxpedi-
tons will be demanded. The spirit of dis
covery has not, in five hundred years
abated any of Its restlesSness. 1t will be
more than FESTIVE when Lieutenant Greedy
shall publish the details of his observations
at Lady Franklin Bay. We will be told
that Greedy has demonstrated that men
| from the temperate zone can live without
serious illness or menace from cx-
posure for two successive winters in the
highest ATTITUDES attained, so long as they
are supplied with shelter, sufficient good
food and fuel. The problem then to be
solved is to locate stations of supplies at so
many points and on a settled base of move
ment, and along such lines radiating there
from as may be determined, that there
will be no danger of the explorers
being cut off from food and fuel
1t will be shown that by erecting stations
very different and more substantial thar
any heretofore attempted, We can stock a
line of posts on both sides of the waterway
from Disco island to Robson sound. II
will then be urged that an expedition sent
out from the farthermost post can erect
new stations and keep up communication
with the base. 1t will be pressed upon the
attention that Greely'S discovery points to
the reasonable probability of open water
beyond the fartheSt point reached, and
that such promise of discovery has been re-
opened by Greely's expedition of observa-
ton, as TO justify the fitting out of new
| bands of explorers. The chief difficulty
will be to command the necessary capital,
and the necessity for vastly greater invest
ment than ever before made for arctic re-
search, will probably for a long time bride
| the ardent spirits that are anxious, even
now, to start northward We are not moved
| from our original position that further OK
petitions are not justiiable. The world
can afford for decade or much more of
time to come, to remain in ignorance of
the truth concerning the polar sea. so
far as governmental aid to discovery is con-
cerned. If private capital shall fit out ex-
petitions there can be none to object but
it is not easy to show that any considera-
tons exist to justify the Government of the
United States very soon re-engaging in the
effort to fathom the regions of eternal ice

Marriages take place at all kinds of
places-frOm caprice, love of notoriety and
sometimes from untoward circumstances
Recently a couple were united in railroad
car the stage coach has furnished the
place where the bridal vows have been
spoken; people have been married on
horseback, in towers and balloons. The
writer once participated in a wedding on
the piazza of summer cottage on one of
the Thousand Islands, the moonlight
glinting the majestic river that flowed be-
meath, and browning the fair bride with
such splendor as the kings daughters
might envy. Niagara has witnessed the
marriage vows, and behind the bridal veil
of Minnehaha Falls many couple have
been made one.
A Brooklyn minister several years ago
married couple from his chamber win
dow, telling them to come round in the
morning and sign the necessary papers.
The making out of the preliminary papers,
if the clergyman is a man Oftact, is usually
done after the ceremony, for not seldom is
there a marked hesitancy on the part OF
the contracting parties in answering the
fatal question of age. Many times have
the ewes of the bridegroom opened wide as
the tally of years counted some half adozen
more in the presence of the clergyman than
| in the prenuphal condolences OF private
| conversation and though the records are at
tested as true, to the best of the signers
knowledge and belief, yet there have been
occasions in the experience of every min
lister when he had been very certain that by
some strange magic at least half n dozen
years have dropped out of the recollection
of the antique but happy bride.
Strange accidents sometimes happen in
the preparation of the certificate. The
writer once spoiled the bridal tour of a
young bride by accidentally copying the
fathers instead of the sons name from the
Health Board return lying before him.
The bride was in great alarm, and at once
on her return she visited the minister in
great distress, saying, You have married
me to the wrong man." 1t was with no
little difficulty that she was persuaded that
a new certificate would make the old gen.
tleman her father-in-law instead of her
husband.-[ Brooklyn Eagle.

In the course of the excavations at San
an-Tanis) there have been disclosed
several portions of red granite colossal
statue of Rameses H., which, when whole
must have been the largest statue known
1t appears to have been standing figure OF
the usual type, crowned with the crown OF
Upper Egypt, and supported up the back
by plaster. Judging from the dimen-
sions of various parts such as the ear and
the instep, and comparing the proportionate
size of the cartouches (which are three feet
wide) with those engraved upon other
statues. this colossus must have been 9S
feet high from the foot to the crown. To
gether with its pedestal, which we can
scarcely doubt was in one piece with it, it
would altogether be about 115 feet high.
The great toe measures Is inches across.
That it was monolith is almost certain,
from the fact that all the largest statues are
without any joint nor does this seem in
credible, since there are obelisks nearly as
long. But this may claim to be the tallest
and heaviest statue that we know of, as the
figure alone would weigh 700 tons, to which
the accessories would probably add Us much
again. A total weight of 200 tons is most
likely under, rather than over, the actual
sum. The statue has been cut up into
building blocks by Sheshank Ill, and used
in the construction of the great pylon I;
hence. only small pieces of few tons each
are now to lie seen.-[W. Flinders Petne' $

know WHY man so little known should be
placed at the helm of State. If Mr.. Gleve-
land is a man eminently fitted to be Pres
ident, why has so little been discovered
about him? He gave voice to one states
manlike utterance, it is true-the veto of
the Elevated Railroad fare bill-but it is
altogether probable that he would fail to be
as wise in the handling of great national
propositions. In the veto referred to he
followed the line of reason, and expressed
views to which we understand the Supreme
Court of the United States to have already
given IDS sanction. Certainly he stated
the law under the Constitution guar
anteeing the integrity of contracts. But
outside of this one wise act, what has Mr.
Cleveland done to entitle him to the suf-
frages of the voters of the whole nation, or
the repose of their confidence? This is the
question the people are now asking and as
vet no man has had the assurance to
attempt to answer it. If he was right-as
he was-in the fare veto, he was wrong in
saying that the State should not protect
laboring men from exactions as to the
hours of labor The laboring class should
be protected by the State when it appeals,
for number of reasons all of which are
obvious. But the main one is that the
State has supreme interest in the welfare
of its working men and women, and in the
conservation of their mental, moral and
physical well being. 1t has not only the
right, but it is its duty to say to the en-
ployer on street railroad lines, you shall
give, not only your employees reasonable
rest for their benefit, but because the people
are entitled to reasonable service, and this
overworked men cannot give upon lines OF
public travel But the great objection to
Mr.. Cleveland is that he has been Demo-
crat at times when, if he is the man he
should be, his sense of right would have
revolted As a single instance Grover
Cleveland voted with the wing of his party
in 1864 that declared the war to save the
Union was failure. And this ought to be
enough to condemn any man now aspiring
to be the President of the Union that the
war did save
