aud up the hillside on which the
cemetery lay. In the spacious grave
yard were twenty.seven open graves.
The idea of burying all the victims
in one common tomb had been aban-
doned and each was placed in sep
arate grave. AS the procession en-
tered the cemetery gate it divided
and each coffin, attended by priest
and followed by its monrners. was
borne to its own particular grave.
The cemetery was densely crowded,
three or four thousand people being
within its limits. A dirge was rem
dered by the band and then simulta-
neonsly at each grave the solemn
service of the Catholic Church at the
burial of the dead was began. At
that moment the cemetery presented
a sight perhaps never before seen
in this country twenty seven open
graves and at each grave a priest,
his voice lifted in the service for the
dead and surrounded by the bowed
forms of weeping relatives. The
awful nature of the disaster that had
dealt such a wholesale death found
its most impressive evidence in this
strange and solemn spectacle. AS
the services closed and the earth
began to fall on the collins, the grief
and anguish OF some of the relatives
present burst through all restraint.
Mrs. John M. Coleman, who saw
at once her beloved husband and
two young sons vanishing forever,
fell to the ground in strong convul-
sions, and was carried home in an
unconscious condition. Thos. Jack
sou, boy of 8 years, brother of Jas.
Jackson, one of the victims, burst
into passionate fit of weeping as
the coffin OF his 12-year old brother
was lowered into the grave, and
cried out: oh, Jimmy Jimmy !!
will you never come back ~ James
Ruddy's mother, "A white haired wo-
man, saw the coffin which held the
mangled form of her stalwart son
lowered into the grave, and when all
was over and the grave-diggers were
piling back the earth she knelt be-
side the closing grave, with clasped
hands and bowed head, and wept in
a grief that could find no expression
in words. Nor would she stir till
the last clod was placed OH the grave
of her dead. Bernard Mcehan and
his 20.year.old daughter Polly, the
one whose leg was cut off to extri
cate her from the wreck, were buried
side by side, aud round the two
graves stood two little children,
whose mother, Frustrated with grief,
lay helpless in her desolate home.
Such scenes were witnessed at al
most every grave. There was not Il
dry eye in the many groups gather,
cred around the last home of the
dead.

HOW HER BRITISH MAJESTY MANAGED TO BURN
$500 WORTH.
From the Liverpool Mercury.
The queen has taken great care that all her
daughters shall have fine pearl necklaces for their
Shapely neckS. She has looked after them in that
respect from their very babyhood. One of her
first purchases after the birth OF each has been
two or three pearls (of which jewel the queen Is
ry fonG), and every year until their marriage she
has added pearl or two to her stock until the
necklace she required was ready. In this quiet
economical way she has been enabled to make I'D
rope or pearls for each OF the Processes and those
who have seen the necklaces at court will bear me
out In saying that the queens daughters are far
as pearls go, well supplied with jewelry. Thereby
hangs tale, for which the correspondent can
vOuch.
Some years ago her majesty bought from a WELL
known London pearl merchant three very beauti-
ful pearls, the united cost OF which was not far
from $500. Four hundred and eighty pounds is
the exact sum mentioned. They pleased royalty
greatly, and were paid for without demur A lit
Tile while after the purchase had been made the
merchant was surprised to receive a letter from
lady al court saying: "The queen wants very
much to know whether pearls viii burn" The
reply to this somewhat startling scientific inquiry
was an assurance that II her majesty wished to
oxygenlZe pearls for her amusement she would
ind that they would burn in an ordinary fire.
This re1oinder produced the secret The queen
had placed the pearls on her writing desk In a
piece OF the tissue paper which jewelers. use.
AS she was writing one morning she used the
tissue paper to wipe her pen and threw 1t into the
1re. The pearls, all unObServed went with 1t.
The ashes OF the crate were searched for them in
vain. They had been destroyed utterly as to
leave no trace. The queen with her own hand had
cast three splendid jewels, worth more than the
the blaze. Pearls have not since been kept on the
royal wr1t1ng-taDle.

The Made IN.

IT ISN'T LIKELY THAT SHE WILL FALL ASLEEP AGAIN
IN A STREET CAR.
From the Pittsburg Dispatch.
In one corner OF a crowded street-car crossing
the 6th-street bridge on Saturday evening sat a
young lady OF more than ordinary good looks Her
fellow passengers had plenty OF opportunities to
gaze at her without embarrassing her. for before
the car was over the bridge she had dropped sound
asleep The conductor evidently knew her. for he
made no attempt to wake her when he came to
her. after collecting the rest OF the fares She did
indeed look very pretty; her head resting slightly
against the windOw-frame, her lips Just parted
and her face composed peacefully. There was a
half smile on her face too, as II her dreams were
pleasant. She had probably been standing behind
adry-goods counter all day long.
The men, and the women, too, were careful not
as they passed out one by one from the car. BY
the time the car had crossed the Allegheny Parks
only the sleeper and gentleman, who was read
ing paper were left In the car just then the
gentleman: 81 shall have to wake her: she gets on
here"
The conductor laid his hand on the Sleeping
girls shoulder and gave her the least possible bit
OF a shake, while with the other hand he rang the
bell for the driver to stop the car. The girl arose
eyes also, she was evidently still in dreamland
Her lips moved and she said, almost in a whisper:
"There, it's 10 O'Clock: didn't you hear the clock
strike? Let me go, say-pleaSe let me 60 Char
lie?" and then she suddenly stopped, put her
hands to her face, and without q word more ran
out OF the car-wide awake and blushing like any
thing.
II you must go to sleep in street-car be sure to
order your dreams discreetly. The conductor who
told me this story: however, says he would not
dreamer again, IL she will not cut on the seance
Just at the point where It becomes interesting
