Tire Great Funeral of Cardinal NfcClosky.

New York Special Five thousand people
we're gathered within the walls OF the cathe-
aral. While the throng was waiting the
Papal Zouaves in gold lace and
bright uniforms marched down the
ccnter aisle and took up q position
about the catafalque. A moment later the
doors OF the sacristy were flung open, and
long procession OF white robes and acolytcs
tiled down the steps to the seats directly in
front OF the high altar. There was a mo-
ment OF huslled expectancy as Fa ther Tam
mel waved his hands, and then the stiffness
vas broken by priests us they chanted the
office OF the dead. The zoe voices OF the
priests and boys, n,ellowed hy the distance,
sounded sweetly to the ear OF the waiting
congregation. The boys chanted one line 81
the psalm and the priests the second. Then
came the singing Of Psalm 81. It. was not,
however. until the priests came to the mis-.
ererc that the full richness and beauty OF
the we'll trained voices Of the chancel choir
we're brought out. In all probabiltynoth-
ing like the singing OF these priests and boys
has ever been heard in the city. First came
the singing of the Latin lines by the boy
tenors, to which responded the harmonizcd
voices OF the priests. The notes OF the chant
flowed upward among the great arches OF
the cathedral, and being reflected by the
pillars, were thrown backward and forw ard
until they died away in the distance
Some more psalms were then sung by the
thoirs in unison, after which came the
chanting OF the Benedictines. The great
organ pealed forth the
SOLEMN. STATELY VOLUNTARY
preceding the mass, and now two acolytes
bearing lighted candles in their hands, fol-
lowed by another procession Of priests, came
slowly out from the sacristy and bowed
before the high altar Then came the bish-
ops i'll their somber-hued garments, and
finally the moDsiegnors and archbishops.
When all was ready the choir chanted the
requiem mass. The choir numbered over
one hundred voices. Archbishop Corrigan
was the celebrant OF the pontifical mass
The sermon was preached by Arch bishop
Gibbons OF Baltimore after the mass. The
text OF the sermon was Eccs. As At the
conclusion OF the sermon, preparations
were made for the concluding rites by the
bestowal OF the Episcopal absoution.
After the words of absolution had been ut
tered, the coffin was removed from the
catafalque by the attendants and gently
carried to it's last resting place in the
crypt under the high altar, where it was
placed beside the body OF Archbishop
Hughes.
On the casket was q latin inscription,
translated thus: "John with the title of
Holy Mary Supra Minerva, priest OF the
Holy Roman church, Cardinal McCloskey,
archbishop OF New York. Lived seventy
Ave years. Died on the 10th day OF Octo.

Virginians Going west.

For good many years emigraDts
have been crowding by the Thousands
into Virginia from the Northern States,
and they have added much to the wealth
and importance of that State. Blu!
while steady stream Of emigration is
settling in towards Virginia, the people
of that State are gradually getting tired
of the old homestead and are turning
their faces westward. 1t is thought
that by the middle of April, fifteen hun
dred people will have left one section Of
the State alone.
The question naturally arises why do
these people who are Southerners
by birth and education, citizens Of a
proud old commonwealth, intermingied
with the FIRST families of the State,
not seek homes in the fresher soils to
the South of them, where they would
be among friends and perhaps kindred
But instead Of this they move beyond
the Mississippi, into a comparatively
uncongenial region. These people really
shrink themselves from the picture they
have made in the sunny South. Here
is an opportunii V for the Immigration
Bureaus OF the different Southern States
to do missionary work. 1t will not be
half so hard to induce Virginian TO go
to Georgia as to Western State or even
to Pennsylvania Why have they not
turned this hegira OF emigration South
ward instead of Westward ? Why in.
deed do they not go there of their own
accord ?

1T Is to be regretted that the pros
pect for converting the insane depart
ment of the New Castle County aims
house into a State insane asylum is not
encouraging. The institution of a state
insane asylum would be an act OF broad
philanthropy and the farther removed
from partisan influences the better. It
is a burning shame that Delaware has
to be beholden to other States for the
care of her insane subjects, while she
is 50 well able to take better care of
them than any other State could do
The Legislature could leave no better
capstone to its winters work than to
round out with instituting and pro-
viding a comfortable home for the in
sane, where the treatment they shall
receive will make them better instead
of worse.

sighting with all the desperation of a

20 which he has been appointed, but il
hooks more and more as il he would
have to 60. He has become more of an

When Governor Carroll was declared
elected nine years ago there were few
who believed he was elected by the
people. No truthful impartial body
who knows anything about Maryland
politics, doubts that Governor Carroll
was counted in by changing the votes
in large number Of the ballot boxes
in the city OF Baltimore, and in this
handy manipulation Of ballots, Higgins
Is said to have been a leader of leaders.
Some time ago, before Higgins was ap-
pointed to the important position which
he now holds, we met a gentleman, a
Democrat from Baltimore, at Dover,
who, referring to Maryland politics,
said that the Republicans at that cleo
ton clearly elected their candidate
Governor, but they were cheated out
of it by the ballot box suffers and ma
nipulators Of Baltimore, chief of whom
was Higgins, who was charged with
having destroyed the Republican bal
lots and with having substituted
others.
Again: Higgins is charged with hav-
ing in 1879, gone to the GAINESVILLE dis.

Boss" German, aud with having I'M

dozer, and with having pistol and

Besides, Higgins is boldly charged
with keeping gambling dive in Baiti.
more. OF his connection with the de-
struction It the Republican balos in
1875, there seems TO be no doubt. He
even admitted to Mr.. Baldwin, Presi-
dent OF the National Mech anics' bank.
that he assisted in destroying the Re-
publican ballots and in subs ituting
Democratic ballots for them He fur
ther admitted that il was all wrong, but
he thought it was for the good of the
Democratic party. This evidence is
corroborated by that of another pre-
cious rascal, who confessed to Mr.. r. T.
Venable, that in 1915, he with others,
amongst whom was Eugene Higgins,
went into the Record Office and remain.
