A FIERY FUNERAL.
TheOsOphfsfs Have Songs, Music and
Addresses at a Cremation.

CHICAGO, Jan. 30-Theosophists met
Yesterday in Graceland cemetery and
watched the cremation of the remains of
Miss Meri Topelius. Instead of the
scene being sad one, the general feel
ing which permeaied the assem- oIage
was one of calm rejoicing. partaken of
by the near and dearest friends of
the girl who had died. Instead
of tears there were songs, music, flowers,
an address of cheerful strains and no.
iiceable absence OF the usual emblems OF
death.
Theosophists do not look on death as
others do, hence the remarkably cheerful
scenes which marked the consumption
by fire of the remains of Miss Topelius.
This makes the second Theosophical
funeral which has taken place in Chi
cago. Miss Topelius, who was native
of Finland. had been teacher of man.

MARQUETTE.

A highly interesting sketch of Mar

the Marquette statue in Statuary Hall in
Washington, placed there by the state

Rev. Myron Reed of Denver recently
said:
Contrast Marquette with the Ply

over the sea. Miles Standish had little
to lose by coming west. Many of the
settlers of jamestown left England on

COMMANDING RESPECT.

The Church News Of Washington says:

from British aggression and Cuba from
Spanish cruelty, but it is also we'll to de-
mand that American citizens when tried
in foreign lands shall have justice; and
when convicted and imprisoned, that
thew must be treated as human beings.
There is no iingoism in the declaration
that American citizens are the world over
to be treated with respect" d..
One of the weakest spots in our ma
tional arnlor and the blacklist stain on
our national character is that we are
often careless of the unjust treatment re-
ceiyed by Americans when abroad. Eng

glish subject, will receive as much atten-
ton as if British colohy had been in
vaded It is this shameful indifference
on our part which causes European coun-
tries, especially England, to trample upon
the rights of American citizens, knowing
that it may do It with IMMUNITY.

not do to have all the work to be per-
