SENATOR STEWARDS ADVICE.
WASHINGTON, March 25. Senator
Stewart, Of Nevada, has sent Mr.. Coxsy
the following message:
"UNITED STATES SENATE, March "a
DEAR SIR: The preservation Of life,
liberty and the pursuit OF happiness was
entrusted to the people under the con.
stitution Of the United States. A free
ballot was the means by which the
sovereign people could retain the rights
acquired by the patriots who gained the
independence and established the govern
msnt Of the United States. There was
a time when the ballot placed the con-
troll of the government in Washington'V,
Jefsrson'S, JscksOn's and Lincoln'S
hands. Such use of the ballot sent
terror and dismsy to tyrants, dsspOts
and plundsring oligsrchies throughout
the world.
"The enemies of justice and human
rights predicted that the success Of the
ballot was temporary; that man was not
capable Of seIf-government. The de-
1truction Of ancient republics and the
repeated failures Of the people to govern
was cited In proof Of their
contention that dsspotism, oppression |
md slavery were the fate Of the human
race. There have BEEN no Washingtons,

But for those other creatures the sun

renee and utter condemnation. The
unworthy poor went out upon the street
and told Of their collapsed stomschs,
told OF little children crying for some Of

their hogs, told Of their human needs in

Several times this winter these un-
worthy poor have violated the rules Of
the associated charities and obtained

disbursiDg agency. They are repeateFs,
these shameless fellows are, to take two
loaVes of bread instead Of one. Society

belong to the human race. There 10 but
one consolation therefor; the last vestige

Funeral Oddities.

Among the ancient Germans the
body of a chief was burned, his
most valuable arms and his war
horse being added to the funeral
pile, in the belief that in the other
world he would follow the same
emplOyments as in this.
With every mummy was de-
posted papyrus containing an
itinerary Of the other world, pray
esr suitable for the use of the de-
ceased in his new mode of existence,
and magical formulae designed to
prevent the corruption Of the body.
Before the middle of the present
century several of the churchyards
in the poorer districts of London
had been raised from 2 to feet by
the number OF interments, and
become a source Of constant dan
ger to the health Of the neighbour
hood.
A dead Roman was kept seven
days; every day the body was
washed and oiled, and at certain
seasons the friends and relatives
collected in the death chamber and
shouted together in order to
arouse the man if he were only
sleeping or in a trace.
The early Romans always buried
their dead. Sulla was the first OF
the aristocracy whose body was
burned. Under the empire burn
ing became customary, and contin-
ued until the establishment Of
Christianity as a State religion in
the fourth century.
At Roman funeral a person
resembling the deceased appeard
in the procession and mimicked
speech and actions. At the funeral
of Vespasian, who was known to
be exceedingly penurious. this
person asked of the spectators how
much was spent on the rites. Being
told. he cried out: "Give. me the
money and you may throw my
body into the river"
The first antiquarian to take an
interest in the Roman catacombs
was Father Bosio, who spent more
than thirty years in exploring
their recesses, making excavations,
clearing galleries and preparing
sketches of the objects he found
He died in 1929, while finishing his
work on the subject, and the vol
ume appeard two years later.
The bodies of Greeks, when not
burned, were placed in earthen-
ware coffins and buried in tombs
along the highways. An occasional
exception was made in favor OF
distinguished men, who were some
times buried in the forums Of the
towns. 1t was in the forum that
DIR. Schliemann discovered the
bodies of Agamemnon and his COM
panions.
Funeral feasts were formerly
universal in England. When the
fourth Earl of Berkeley died un-
expectedly, June s, 1868, there was
nothing ready for the feast, and
the interment was postponed until
a hundred geese could be fattened
The process required over three
weeks, and by the accounts Of the
estate it appeared that the steward
used 200 bushels of beans in get
ting the geese ready for slaughter
