"It is a fact" said an undertaken re-
Gently, that the business of the under
taker is being revolutionized and there
is o less and less demand for elabora-
ton and expense in funerals: This
turn began less than two years ago.
The desire and practice is generally
growing for private funerals. One Of
the causes of all this, / imagine, was
the abuse of privilege by people who
forced themselves upon the mourning
and rode in the carriages andotherwise
forced themselves upon the funeral
circle. Why, there were people who
made it a business to go to all the fu-
nerals they possibly could, even upon
the most casual acquaintance, or no
acquaintance at all. It was a,sort of
mania-among women, Of course. Then
there were actually many thefts COM
mitted by proving sympathizers. So
it has all led to a revolution, and in
stead of many carriages for friends and
flowers in profusion you seldom see
any than just enough.carriages
for the Immediate family, and flowers,
we'll, there are flowers used in great
quantity, for there is that which
can be expressed in flowers which can
not be in words even if opportunity
afforded. Still the floral offerings are
growing simpler in design, and often

democratic Negroes Adopt Resolutions.
The negro democratic state committee Of
Tennessee has adopted resolutions setting
forth that the republican leaders of the
north are misrepresenting the two races of
the south by lncendiary speeches wholly
uncalled for; that the committee states to
the colored people of the country that the
thing that will do the colored people of the
south and north more good Than anything
else is 9 division of the negro vote; that
educated negroes are doing better in the
south than in the north, and that the best
thing the southern negro can do is to cease
his war policy upon his white %neighbors.
