DENIED A CATHOLIC BURIAL
A Murdered Couples Bodies Barred Out of
Church and Cemetery

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATcH.l
NEW YORK, July 16.-William Brennan and
his wife Elizabeth, who were killed on Tues
day morning in Jersey City by Policeman
John Ryerson, were buried this after
noon. The two bodies were put in
one grave. Their relatives intended to
haye funeral services in st. Joseph's
Church and bury them in the Catholic
cemetery, but Monsignor Seton, the PASTOR
refused to allow any services in the church.
Permission to bury the bodies i'll the Cath
olic cemetery was also refused. This was be-
cause the ill-fated couple hadneglected their
religious duties; had not lived up to the rules
of the church, and therefore could not be
buried in consecrated ground.
1t was held that they had virtually ex-
communicated themselves and were not
entitled to any of the rights of the church.
The funeral was attended by a number of
relatives and neighbors, who complained
very bitterly because they were forced to
have the bodies buried i'll Protestant
cemetery.

A CLEVER BIT OF DECEPTION.

How Pretty Girl Kept Her Complexion
While on a River Excursion.
There was a very pretty girl among the in
vited guests on the Gusky Orphan excursion,
Wednesday. Her main. beauty, however,
was in her lovely complexion. Every one
who saw her remarked the peculiar fresh
ness of her skin, and, in mild way, did some
ravirig. There wasn't trace of powder or
rouge; it appeared perfectly natural, and
was so declared by would-be connoisseurs of
fine arts.
But to tell the truth it was a very clever
little bit of deception just the same. The
young lady made frequent visits to the
dressing room, and each time made vigorous
applications of her handkerchief to the
deiicately-ti cheeks, after which, with
an air of occurrences perfectly fascinating,
she would take her seat on the deck, draw
her shoulder cape more closely, and pose for
the admiration she invariably received

les of State guard, left this city for Brice-
vile, which was reacued at noon, and the
convicts were transferred to the stockade

miners. A company from Chattanooga was
thrown on guard News was spread that
Governor Buchanan would speak to
the miners, and in short time
about a thousand people assembled.
The Governor was introduced by Eugene
Merrill. an ex-convict, and the most in
fiuential man among the miners. Governor
Buchanan said that he had no speech to
make, but would say to them that he did not
make laws, but executed them, and $50
help him God" the law must be obeyed on
this occasion.

THEY DON'T RELY ON DYNAMITE.
Russians Do Not Use Uncle Sans Method
for Making Rain Fall.

1Or uhAlnS MILL
The scarcity OF rain this year has revived
among the superstitious Slavs some quaint
heathenish beliefs and practices. An inter-
esting ceremony is practised among the
Bulgarian colonies in Bessarabia. 1t is
called ''Paparooda," which signifies ''the
thirsty Demon The maidens of the vii
1age choose pretty orphan girl, strip her
naked and clothe her in a garment of leaves.
She is then denominated "Paparooda," and
becomes the leader. They follow her
through the village. She stops at every
house door and orders them to sing. She
herself does not sing, but turns around in
circle, with the left arm raised and the right
hand outstretched. ',-
The singing is continued in a sad, slow
tone until the master of the house comes
and puts a handful of -four in Paparooda's
hand. As soon as this is done she orders
her followers to stop singing at once, and
leads them to the next house. But the in
mates of the house which the procession
leaves must pour water upon the Paparooda
and her followers; the more water they can
pour out the sooner will rain come.
