 All gathered around the coffin in ab- nolute silence, which was unbroken even by the exchange of friendly greetings until after the transference of the body to the railway carriage.
 The short distance was soon made. the train arriving at the Dublin station at 7:s0. A vast but silent crowd with uncovered heads awaited the train as 1t rolled into the station. Timothy Harrington, the member of Parliament for Dublin Harbor. and Dr. Hackett, who attended Mir. Parnell when his eyes were injured at Kilkenny, as we'll as other notabilities here. joined the swelling funeral procession.
 Conspicuous in front of tho dense, masses of people were members of the Gaelic Athletic association with the
 lurlers used in their sports all draped with black crape caught up with green ribbon.
 Representatives of the different branches of the league wore black badges, upon which were printed the dying words of the statesman: .sGive my love to my colleagues and the Irish nation"
 Upon being removed from the train the case was taken from the coffin, which was then lifted into hearse, . panelof glass exposing the coffin to view. Wreaths and floral tributes literally covered the top of the hearse and were pile around the coffin case These. after they had been put aeide, were eagerly seized upon by the crowd, broken into small pieces ana kept as mementoes of the sad occasion.
 A violent rainstorm streamed down as the coffin was borne into the hall toward the catafalque. 1t kept rain ing in pitiless torrents hour after hour, yet the numbers of the vast throng that were struggling to course their way toward ahe citr hall were not re- duced in the slightest, nor was their eagerness darhpened. It was an as semblage of remarkable serenity. A revcrential quiet pervaded the entire mass, which was unbroken by partisan cries or even the remotcst symptoms or tendency to disorder.
 At precisely 10 o'clock the gates were opened and inst antly the people poured into the hall. The body lay ip state in the council cham Der, a largo circular room now heavily draped y1 black. relieved by scroll, of whi;e satin and looped festoons, bearing In Oiafh iCbtCBS thC idSt "OIQo VI S0O | dead chief The coffin. which rested upon a raised dais in the middle of the l was buried in the massAs of | wreaths. floral crosses.
