once charms the eye and gratifies the
taste. The coloring and finishing of
the woodwork and walls are strik-

rather than a day of remembrance.
This is more the effect of thoughtless-
ness than otherwise, and Grand

of reform in this direction. The men,
bers have yearly set an example that
does credit to them, and now let them
admonish the people, and take steps
to see that the general good time"
clause is stricken from the public pro-
gramne for the day, so that every
thing may be done decently and in
order.

The Funeral of Archbishop R0urge
 At Montreal.

N
 At Montreal.
 MONTREAL, June 12.-It is estimated that at least ten thousand people were in the Church of Notre Dame this morning. The ceremony was most impressive. The dead Archbishop lay in magnificent coffin, hia head resting on a pillow of satin, slightly raised, so that his features were exposed to the gaze of the faithful thousands. His mitre, stole and cross lay at his feet. The whole was elevated on a magnificent cat afalaue surrounded by hundreds of lighted tapers.
 Throughout the night members of the Alteration Nocturne remained with the body reciting prayers for the dead.
 Punctual1y at 9 o'clock the services were begun The officiating clergymen were Bishop Williams of Boston, Bishop Wad- hams of Ogdensburg, Bishop Fabre of Montreal, and Bishop Duhamel of Ottawa. Archbishop Tache, of Winnipeg, preached the sermon. After the service at Notre Dame the funeral procession formed and proceeded to the Church of Notre Dame de Pite, where the remains of Monsignor Lartique, the first Bishop of Montreal, had lain These were exhumed yesterday and have ever since been exposed to the adora- tion of thousands. The procession, headed by two hearses containing the bodies of the Archbishop and Bishop, then wended it's way to St. Peters cathedral, where another imposing ceremony took place, after which the remains of the two bishops were laid to through which the procession passed were heavily draped in black and gold, the pom tifcal colors. The city is crowded with visis tors
