. CAPITAL IN MOURNING.
CzAR ALExANDER III. BURIED IN
THE FORTRESS CATHEDR4L.
Imposing Religious Ceremonies In
the Presence of X and Princes.
The BODY Placed in the Crypt.

While the bells tolled n the minute
guns boomed their requiem, priests
chanted the sonorous Greek liturgy over
the body of Gar Alexander III. in the
FORTRESS Cathedral ST. Petersburg. On
a black covered dais, three steps above
the floor of the nave. the coffin was
placed. Candelabra blazing about it did
little to relieve the gloom in he great
church.
Over the catafalque was spread a
black canopy lined with ermine, sup
ported by four great pillars. The ma
genta velvet covering the steps of the
dais was strewn with golden eagles. and
cunningly wrought wreaths of silver
glittered about the catafalque.
The Cars body wore a simple uni
form. The waXy hands were crossed be-
low a sacred image of st. Alexander
Nevski. The new Car, Nicholas II, his
mother, his afianced. Princess AliX. OF
Hesse-D armstadt, members of the I'M
perial family and high officials of the
empire advanced in turn and reverently
kissed the image.
After the chanting had died away, the
casket was lowered into the crypt, and
the opening in the floor was closed by a
stone weighing 5000 pounds.
The whole city was in mourning. Al
intervals on the Nevskt Prospect forty
foot pillars bore sombre urns in which
incense burned.
Long ago the court doctors gave up
the attempt to hide the nature of the

warning that his pale, drawn face, pains
in the back. faint spells and drowslness.

listen to advice, and he is dead long be-

Bright's disease was a dreadful agent
of death long before it was known by
that name. 1t was believed to be in
durable, and with reason, until a great
remedy was put forth to compat II.

thing can cure them.
There is one skeptic less every time

this medicine can and does repair the
ravages of advanced kidney disease Is
made without any Ifs" and OUTS.
your kidneys are below par. Do not re-
ject her admonition. as the late Gar
did.
Consent to be sick and you will soon
be well if you use Warmers Safe Cure.
The warmest words of praise for this
remedy come from physicians whose
hostility to proprietary medicines in
general is notorious.
They know how Warmers Safe Cure
acts upon the urinary organs, so that
relief is immediate and cure certain.
They have felt its power in their own
persons.
A departure from perfect health with
out positive symptoms of organic dis
ease is often enormously attributed to
cold or overwork, when, in fact, the kid
neys are affected. Then is the time to
take Warmers Safe Cure, for although
it conquers the worst cases, of course II
makes much shorter work of the trouble
If no time is lost.
Bright's disease kills men in middle
for a ripe old age.

lege, was founded in 1888, and Columbia,
the sixth in point OF age, opened its doors
with a class Of eight in u vestry room of
Trinity church July II, 1854. Tho first
site of the college was not far west of the
present New York p~ostoffice, and the col
lege is now located on Madison avenue at
Forty-ninth street. This site, however,
has long been considered inadequate, and

POLICY PRINCES sOAPEGoATs,

Policy men again aroused Judge Hubs
peth's ire in the Court of General SEES
sions this morning when John Van Berg
and Andrew Curry, who had pleaded
not guilty to maintaining a policy shop
at No. 20 Montgomery street, said tina
they didn't have anything to do with
he business, but McGarran of New
York was h culprit and paid them as
clerks.
The Court thinks it is about time that
ton papers were taken out to bring him
here from New York. said Judge Huds-
peth, and then after a pause remarked:
"One-half Of the policy men arrested
in this city are sent by this man to
the shambles as sacrifices n he es-
capes."
Van Berg and Curry were committed
for trial

WATER NEEDED In TIE JAII,.

The letter forwarded by the Secretary
of the State Charities Aid Society to
Judge Hudspeth. complaining about the
condition of the County Jail, has at least
produced some good. The County Su-
perintendent will direct men today to
examine the building and d. what is
necessary to make 1t habitable.
One serious drawback to the efforts
of the officials to keep the jail in a sani-
tary condition is the lack of water. For
a long time the supply has been very
limited, and on the second floor it was
impossible to get n water whatever,
ing it upstairs in pals.
The Freeholders will consider what
shall be lone to make the Jail at least
hahitable.
