an orderly line In a purely extempor-
lied fashion The band of the working
mems union followed directly behind
the police escort and played the dead
March in Saul" Then came the Gaelic
athletic association with their purlers
reversed, resembling a military body
at reversed arms" As the march
progressed the crowds grew denser. yet
they kept clear of the line of the pro-
cessien along the whole route to Castle
hill, where the serried ranks of people
occupied every inch of space. The city
hall was reached at $50 o'clock.
A violent rainstorm streamed down
as the coffin was borne into the hall
toward the catafalque. 1t kept raining
in torrents for hour after hour, yet the
numbers of the vast throng that were
struggling toward the city were not re-
duced in the slightest
The ceremony of lying in state was
to have been closed at noon, but the
Gro wd was 50 numerous that the clos
ing of the doors were postponed till
after o'clock, and even then hundreds
were obliged to go away disappointed.

bier, drawn by six coal black horses,
surrounded by the parliamentary col
leagues of Mr. Parnell. AS the coffin

horse followed the bier. Then

was John O'Ce0nor, leading by the
arm the blind member, Mcdonald.
Then came carriages containing Mrs.
Dickinson, the sister of Mr.. Parneil,
Mr.. Parnell's brother and sister. and
other near friends The lord mayor in

behind the family carriages. Then fol-
lowed the representatives of the cor
porations of the principal Irish towns,
various trade societies, Foresters, home
rulers, private carriages and citizens
on foot
just as the procession started the rain
happily ceased. the sun broke through
the clouds and shone brilliantly. The
scene was most impressive. All the
windows aud housetOps along the line
of march were packed with people. 1t
had been planned to take a somewhat
circuitous route to the cemetery in or

in the city. but as it was found that it

in point of numbers anything of the
kind ever witnessed in Dublin.
Throughout the route admirable or

Glasnevin
Here the coffin was removed and
placed upon a platform especially con-
structed for the purpose in order to
enable those in the procession to pass
around it and have a full view of the
bier. At o'clock the fast falling dusk
found the procession still filing past.
There seemed no likelihood that the
stream of marchers would end till far
into the night So orders were given
to remove the coffin to the side of the
grave.
The noise Of women, the cries of chill
dren and the cries of men struggling
amid the crush made inaudibls.

service had been celebrated at ST.
