BURIAL or POPS Plus TX.
The Body Walled Up In a Temporary
Tomb Until It rs Put In the Crypt.

Tomb Until 1t Is Put In the Crypt.
Few saw tho scene which followed
when the good pope's body had lain
four days in state and was then placed
in its coffin at night, 10 be hoisted high
and swung noiselessly into the tempo
rary tomb above the small door onthe
east side-that is, to the left Of the
Chapel of the Choir. 1t was for a long
time the custom that each pope should
lie there until his successor died, when
his body was removed to the monument
prepared for it in the meantime, and
the pope just dead was laid il the same
place.
The church was almost dark, and
only in the Chapel Of tho Choir and that
of the Holy Sacrament, which are op-
posite each other, a number Of big WAX
candles shed a yellow light. In the
niche over the door a mason was still at
work, with a tallow dip, clearly visible
from below. The triple collins stood be-
fore the altar in the Chapel Of the Choir.
Opposite, where the body still lay, the
Noble guards and the Swiss guards, in
their breastplates, kept watch with
drawn swords and halberds.
The Noble guards carried the bier On
their shoulders in solemn procession,
with chanting choir, robed bishops and
tramping soldiers, round by the Confess
sion aud across the church and lifted
the body into the coffin. The pope had
been very much beloved by all who were
near him, aud more than one gray
haired prelate shed tears Of genuine
grief that night.
In the coffin, in accordance with an
ancient custom, O Bug was placed con-
tanning a3 medals, II of gold, Il Of
silver and one of bronze for each Of the
81 years during which Pope Plus had
reigned, and 8 history Of the pontif-
cate, written on parchment, was alGo
deposited ut the feet Of tie body.
When the leaden coffin was soldered,
six seals were placed upon it, five by
cardinals and Il by the archivist Of the
Chapter Of st. Peters. During the
whole ceremony the prothonotary apes
tolic. the chancellor Of the apostolic
chamber and the notary OF the Chapter
OF st. Peters were busy, pen in hand,
writing down the detailed protocol OF
the proceedings.
The last absolution was pronounced,
and the coffin in its outer case Of elm
was slowly moved cut and raised in
sings and gently swung into the nicho.

FREAK FACTORIES.

New Attractions.

New Attractions.
"Eow do you manage to find new
freaks and euricsities?" was the ques.
ton asked CT the manager Of a travelling
show that had pitched it's tent in a
London suburb.
Don't have to find them" was the
laconic response. "Thcy find us. The
freak business IS as regularly established
as any other ard has its wholesale and
retail firms, travelling statesmen, brokers,
price lists, factories'-
"F~actories?" qumied the reporter,
aghast.
"Why, certainly. factories, of course.
The freak business liz divided into about
three varieties-foreign, domestic and
fake.
"1n the first class the collectors travel
all over the world in search of rarities,
but the very best freaks come from In
dia and the Malay peninsula. IN these
countries there are people who breed
freaks. Th<y buy young children and
animals and deform them while their
bones are soft by all manners Of means.
Then they are constantly en- the outlook
for genuine natural freaks, and in those
lands the birth Of a freak occurs very
frequently. The headquarters Of this
business is at Singapore.
Then there ere Gsy number Of men
who devote themselves to the discover
ing and placing Of freaks of all kinds
and varieties. and there is scarcely a
day goes By that we do net receive
packages of photographs and illustrated
circulars from some freak merchan. or
other.
"Of course there are the faxed freak
men-a perfect host in themselves. If
the proprietor OF some little show needs
IA additional attraction and does not
have the money to hire something good
for, like everything else, fTeal,' have
their mice-he cen get something for
littlo money that will serve his purpose.
Tho real, genuine live freaks always
command high prices and travel all
over tho world in order 70 exhibit them
selves. Most of them have regular routes
mapped out by their advance agents,
just like theatrical companies, and lis
they only appear ct a place at long in
tervals they never set stale, snd some
times make bigger hits On their second
