THE oBsEQUIEs.

The funeral was from Grace Episcopal
Church, Sunday afternoon at O'Clock,
Rev. DR.. r. J. McBryde, Rector. Rev.
Drs. T. L. Preston, D. D., of the Presby.
terian, and ]. R. Taylor, of the Baptist,
and Rev. A. M. Cackley, of the Methodist
Church, were within the chancel, and the
services simply those of the church. The
casket was black metallic, which was
covered profusely with flowers woven in
forms of exquisite beauty. The large

colored persons present,

funeral shoald be as simple as possible,

: TEE CARNEGIE BANQUET.

He went on to speak of the recent Carne-
gle banquet in Washington. Reading some
of the newspaper headlines, such as Like
old Luculius' gorgeous d nDer that out
rivaled an ancient Roman FEAST" "a menu
which almost the whole world furnishei,"
that banquet brought to his mind That
other historical feast which Beshazzar, the
king, gave to Thousand of his lords, and
when the King saw the fingers of mans
hand write on the wall, lover against the
candlestick,' the ''mene, meme, tekel,

A Row In .Jnckson Alley.

George Wilson and his sister Lou are resi-
dents of Jackson alley, but this morning their
temporary home was in tho Police Court They
were charged with disturbing tine quiet of the
alley in which they reside. Frank Jordan. an
absent member of the household. was accused
of having struck Georges sister Lou and
George claimed that he tried to protect her.
The proof against him was that he threw n
Ratchet at Frank. This he denied. Sister Lou
was called and she said: He certainly did
throw dc Ratchet" Lawyer Hewlett told the
court that George was not bright in his upper
story; that he was frightened by a snake.
NO" interrupted Georges mother, The was
frightened by dog before he was born and he
amt right"
George told his version Of the affair and al
tho end OF every sentence he said. "Jes' like
dat" and Judge Miller fined him So lies de
same" Sister Lou was discharged.

MIGHT HAVE BEEN WORSE.
President Curtis on Republican Admin.
istratiOn of the Civil Service Law.

George William Curtis Of tine National Civil
Service Reform League delivered his annual
address at the preliminary meeting of the
league last night in Boston. Mr.. Curtis in his
address said: 1T is undeniable that in passing
a tariff bill the republican party has kept its
promise. 1t is equally undcniable that in the
general partisan pillage of the civil service
the republican party has broken its promise.
This is not to say that nothing has been done
nor that the reform Law has been either grossly
violated or generally disregarded. 1t is only
saying tina. the party cannot honestly claim the
confidence of civil service reformers. The law
indeed might have been repealed, as republic
can Representatives in Congress and republican
journals have desired. But it is still law. The
commission might have been paralyzed. but it
remains efficient and alert. MIR. Roosevelt
whose fidelity and zeal cannot DO Questioned
assures Us that % per cent of employees who
were appointed IN the classified service under
the late democratic administration still hold
their places and that the law has been fairly
enforced. Congress, also, after some republi-
can opposition. has granted the commission
five additional clerks with salaries amounting
to sc. GOO"
