FUNERAL OF MRS. CLAYTON.

OF Which She Was "a Member.

The funeral of Mrs. Ida l.. Clayton
took place from Emmanuel Baptist church
Sunday at p. NJ. The church was
crowded with sorrowing friends, who es-
teemed Mrs. Clayton for her good works
and Christian character. The services
were conducted by the pastor. Rev. ]. r.
Harrison, and sweet and pathetic solos
were sung by Captain Cunningham and
Miss Dobbins.
Mrs. Clayton died on Saturday after a
long Illness. She was the wife of Mr..
William f. Clayton and is survived by
her husband and five children She was

years ago. II was a sad coincidence that
her funeral should have occurred on the
day on which Rev. Mr.. Harrison had
asked especially that all those who were
members of the church at its organiza-
ton should be present. At the close of
the service Sunday morning. these origi-

THE PASSION PLAY.
An Immense Audience Witnesses It's
Presentation mt the Auditorium.

The pictorial presentation OF the Pas
sion Play at the Auditorium last night
was witnessed by probably the largest
crowd that has been drawn to the build
ing this season.
II seems improper TO say the audience
was pleased when speaking or the sem
sations that must have been every ones
as he witnessed the lifelike presentation
of the story of the Christ. The peasants
of Ober- Ammergau and Horitz IN pre-
senting this drama of the earthly exist
ence of the Saviour of mankind have con-
ceived the Christly character TO be that
which philosophers and sages would not
ascribe to Him, but which comes to all
who witness the presentation as given
last night. 1t is such wonderful blend
ing of man and God as does not come TO
the mind of average humanity.
From beginning TO end the representa-
ton of the play was solemn, impressive,
and moving. The lecture preceding the
presentation, describing the motives OF
the simple minded peasants in thus de-
lineating the sufferings of the Christ the
pictures OF scenes in their daily lives,
their labors their amusements, and their
poverty, prepared the audience for the
scenes which followed. and throughout the
production one Illnu TtNtTl-
ed to the hard. joyless existence Of these
people, and one could but wonder whether
their lives had not given them a clearer
and more nearly correct idea of the Sa-
viour. 1t is remarkable that men and
women who have no professional training
should be able to represent scenes in a
manner that thrills cold-blooded men.
though they witness their production
through the medium of the cineomato-
graph.
The pictures were explained in an elo-
quent maner by Professor James Sicily,
and Miss Blanche Yewell. of Washington,
and Professor DuShane Coward sang APP
propriate solos at various points in the
story.
The Passion Play will be presented every
night this week. 1t seems probable. from
the size of the crowd last night that the
prediction Of Rev. DR.. Wharton that
everybody in Richmond will see II will
be fulfilled. The proceeds of the enter
tainments DR.. Wharton devotes TO his or
phanages. chief among which is his Who
soever Home. at Luray. He made a
short address to the audience last night
and will do so at each performance.
