KAISER AND HIS WIFE.
Pay a Tribute Of Respect to the
Memory of the Iron
Chancellor.
FUNERAL SERVICE AT THE sCHLoss

Attended by Not More Than Forty Per-
sons, Among the Number the Emperor
and Empress Castle Surrounded by
Thousands of People from Far and
Near-Condolence Received from Dom
Paul - Empress Frederick Sends a
Wreath. but Nothing Has Been Heard
from Victoria OF England.
Friedrichsruhe, Aug 3.-The grounds
about Prince Bismarck's castle were
thronged with people early yesterday,
there by the prospect of seeing Emperor
William pay a tribute of respect to the
dead. They wandered about the woods,
congregated in the beer gardens, and
sent hundreds of memorial post cards
with portraits of the deceased prince
and pictures of the castle Many of the
people were in mourning, and hundreds
came on bicycles. Under the trees sixty
men Of the Thirty first infantry from
Altoona, and the sergeants Of Prince Bis
marck's regiment from Madgeburg, had
arragned their messes The sergeants
in their white uniforms with yellow fac
ings and FURNISHED helmets furnished a
guard which was on duty on the terrace
facing the garden behind the castle.
Arrival of the Imperial Party.
Vendors Of cards, photographs and
meals swarmed about the outskirts Of
the crowds. and walters from the neigh
boring beer gardens, bearing trays of
empty or filled glasses, circulated on all
sides, and did big business among the
thirsty. There were only few
gen d'armes peresnt. but they were per-
fectly able to maintain order. When the
imperial train arrived here the crowds
were so anxious to see the emperor that
they swarmed over the fences and upon
the platform. The troops, however,
were able to keep a SPACE clear around
the emPeror's saloon carriage. The
presentations at the railroad crossing
where the Bismarcks received the en-
peror and empress consumed ten min
utes, the emperor shaking hands with
Count Won Rantzau, the late princes
son-in-law, and other relatives of the
Diseased
Ceremonies Were Very Private.
There was no cheering, but an uproar
was caused by the excited conversation
carried on among the crowds present.
What took place in the death chamber
is not known. though an official state
nent on the subject may be forthcom-
ing. But there is no doubt the religious
service was most impressive. Pastor
Westphal of BIunstorf, conducted it
according 10 the rites Of the reformed
church. The text, in compliance with
Prince Bismsrck's desire, was from the
First Epistle of Paul the Apostle TO the
Corinthians. chapter XIV, verses SO to 81.
The mourncrs present including the i'm
rerial party, numbered from thirty t.
forty persons. Immediately after tho
service the emperor and empress and
party Started for Berlin. The former
Empress Frederick sent large laurel
wreath with palms. lilies and white
roses intertwincd and tied with black

THE BEES AND THE TREES.
A Territory Mystery That Is Puzziing at
Least One Man.

From the Galveston News.
Away back in the sos there was a
Shawnee indian village on the South
Canadian river about IS miles west Of
South McAlester, but the old village
has long since disappeared. On the
spot where the young Shawnee buck
suns his kiowala to his dusky maiden
and courted his best girl by the light
of the full moon, only an occasional
rock hearth and a few graves are left
to indicate the former hunting ground
of the red man.
Near the old village site now lives
a white man. Just on the border of
this mans farm is a spot which seems
to have been the thickest settled part
of the Shawnee village. and here is a
grove OF black oak trees. In this grove
are two very large post oak trees. one
in the south n one in the north end
of the grove. In the grove can be
heard most n day the buzzins of a
swarm of bees so plainly that the
noise has fooled many old bee hunters.
but all their search has never revealed
a single bee.
Now comes the most peculiar part
of this most peculiar tale. The large
post oak tree standing at the north
end of the grove is the curiosity of the
bunch for not long ago a young man
hearing the bees went to the spot n
proceeded TO look carefully up each
tree in the grove until he came to the
north oak. He was within two feet CT
his tree looking up when he heard a
noise just like a carpenter at work
mailing on boards and the noise seemed
to come from the tree. He went around
II several times trying to locate the
hammering. but II still seemed to come
from the tree, the hammering contin-
ued until he happened TO touch the
tree with his hand. when IL suddenly
stopped. The mar then went away
amazed. A day or so after this man
had occasion TO again pass that way.
He slipped up to the tree and listened
for the hammering, and sure enough 1t
was as plain as ever. He touched the
tree with the end of his finger, and as
before the noise stopped at once. This
man and several others have tried
touching the tree several times with
the same results.
They say that the humming OF bees
and curious hammering can be heard
any day, but no one has been able 10
explain the mysteries OF this enchanted
grove.

Mushroom Neck.

From the Springfield Republican.
Mushroom neck is what they are
calling the latest disease attributed to
mushrooms. When a person Is seen
walking the streets with his face pain
fully turned TO the right or the left.
his eyes glued to the ground and NOV
ing in fitful glances from one stump
to the next, and with a general look
of expectancy on his face. as though
supreme happiness were distant about
eight feet and had consistently re-
manned so. ii may be inferred that he
is a victim OF "mycologitis." His
friends pass him and he sees them not:
IL he keeps out from under the bicy-
cles n trolley cars ii Is by some such
miracle as preserves somnambuiists.
For all the time he Is wondering
whether the little brown specks in the
grass are the %veritable marismius or
cades, in which case he Is in for a
toothsome dainty for dinner. or only
its hateful. poisonous counterpart. the
false champion.
