In order to make Roadway against the
common enemy, Disease, It is necessary
TO oppose him with persistence. 1t very
frequently happens that q remedy per-
fectly adequate TO the necessities Of the
case, if persisted in, is condemned aud
thrown aside because few doses OF it
do not cure malEdv. How unreason-
able and unjust would such Judge
ment be regarding Hostetter,s stomach

the pavement, was formed from the east crest
of the bluff at the end OF the park as far as
the eye could reach down the drive First IL
was single line, soon IL doubled, then it
trebled, until the shoals Of new arrivals that
came tramping across the meadows In the
rear vending their way through the dusty
streets and taking short cuts over fences and
across private yards, swelled IL TO an army.
All footsteps tended to the same point-the
tomb on the hilltop
1t was marvellous to see the people come
Men and women were hurrying on foot drag
ging crying children along by the hand as
though they had not minute to lose, although
the body OF the great man whose coffin they
were all out on purpose to see had not yet left
the City Hall In cabs, in carts, in buses,
in numbering trucks, in horse cars, or any
thing that would run on wheels, the multi
tude kept coming, the number of persons that
rode being invariably determined by the
capacity of the vehicle and not by tho physi-
cal endurance of the horses. As the
line stretched further and further
down the edge OF the drive
were stretched out in front Of them, few
feet apart. 1t was a remarkable sight, even
for a New Yorker, to see a straight line Of
blue coats and brass buttons nearly three
miles long stemming back as effectually as a
stone breakwater sets a limit TO the tide the
turbulent, pushing crowd of human beings
behind them. Woe to the man or woman
that tried to cross the sidewalk At the
street corners the thoroughfare was kept open,
but no vehicles were allowed to roll into the
park drive, nor could the wagons come to a
standstill at the street line.
By 10 o'clock, when the first gun from the
war ships on the river announced to the crowd
that the great pageant was on its march,
even people in the rear could not find places
to stand between 122d and 127th streets, so
they began to broaden out the line down to-
ward the city almost out Of sight of the
tomb. At any time however, till the fu.
neral procession entered tho park good places
were not hard to find along the lower end of
the drive The minute guns on the war ships
had been marking the steady progress of the
procession for two hours before the men
working on the tomb dropped their
tools and left everything in readiness for re-
ceiving the body. So many little details, not
considered in the hurry and hustle of prelim-
| mary preparation, remained to be attended to
that the workmen never ceased their labors
through the night, and continued right on
till noon, with the exception of a brief rest
for hurried breakfast The little Runic
cross that surmounts the entrance to the
vault instead of being left an olive-green
color, the same as the iron gate, was finished
off in maroon and gilt The large letter "G'
on the gate was gilded also. The carpenters
were the last men to quit work, after putting
down a platform 1875 feet long directly front
ing the tomb and about fif6y feet from It,
amply provided with seats for distinguished
guests at the ceremonies.

endless line until o'clock, when Captain
Beatty, OF the park police, ordered his men
to close the passageway made by their lines,
and TO remove the crowd from the vicinity OK
the tomb. There were then remaining not
less than 1000 persons within sound
of a pistol shot, fully half of whom. had
not had chance to pass in front OF the
tomb, and nearly all of those who had NOT
passed wanted TO do SO, The police acted
with Dispatch and within fifteen minutes
they had cleared space for one hundred iees
from the entrance to the tomb in front, and
also the chained enclosure on the slope above
and behind. After this the gathering
dwindled fast, although enough yet remained
to make large crowd, probably 1000 per-
sons
hour or longer under tree just back OF the
tomb. One of them kept his
hand on an iron machine about the size
of haycutter and resembling haycutter
in its scoop and wheel Another stood
at barrel filed with soft coal. Several
boxes lay near. Ths men were all from the
Franklin Iron works. of Troy, where the steel
case was made. Their apparatus like hay
cutter was a portable blast furnace, the
wheel propelling the fan beneath the scoop
in which the coal was to burn. The boxes
contained the fifty wrought iron rivets that
were to be put in the steel case and that were
to fasten it to its stone foundation, with the
tools for that work. When the crowd was
cleared away the men carried their apparatus
within the tomb The blast furnace was set up
and started between the steel case and the door.
All of the men worked inside the tomb. The
riveting began at about 6:45. 1t was a small
place for so many men, and work proceeded
slowly. By 9o'clock, however, the work was
over and the workmen emerged. The tomb
was then closed and left to the care of Cap
tain ]. A. Fessenden, with Battery H, Fifth
Artillery, who have pitched camp under the
trees in sight Of the tomb, expecting to re-
main there at least thirty days. Captain
Beatty also detailed a squad Of men TO the
neghborhood for the night.
The crowd that watched the beginning of
the work of the men with the rivets grew
rapidly less after sunset aud had dwinded to
100 or so when the tomb was closed. Many
of the late arrivals were well dressed ladies.
