NEW YORK, July 26.-Walston, the
beautiful home at Dobbs Ferry, where
Robert G. Ingersoll died, was quiet
place to-day. The body of the dead ag-
nostic lay on his flower covered bier.
Only the widow and daughters sat
near; all the others kept away. Three
hundred letters were received to-day
from all over the country. Most of
them were from intimate friends
Among those who sent letters were j..
H. Manley, OF Maine; Mrs. Elizabeth
Cady Stanton, who wrote a beautiful
letter of hope and sympathy; Octave
Thanet and Owen Miller, president of
the American Federation of Musicians.
This is what Mr. Miller wrote from St.
Louis to Mrs. Ingersoll:
''On behalf of $4,000 professional mu-
sicians, comprising the American Fed
Grafton of Musicians, permit me TO ex-
tend you our heartfelt and most sincere
sympathy in the irreparable loss of
the model husband, father and friend.
In him the musicians of not only this
country, but of all countries, have lost
one whose noble nature graSped the
true beauties Of our sublime art and
ions expression in words of glowing
eloquence that will live as long as
language exists"
The incarceration will be strictly pri-
vate. The time has not even been set,
in order that the public may not know.
The funeral party will wait during the
hours while the body is being consum-
ed TO take the ashes back with them.

The taking OF testimony in the Nc

to-day. The dispositions of Senators
w. l. Ashby and C. w. Osenton, Demo-
Gratis, and Delegate ]. ]. Haptonstall,
Republican, were taken. The testi-
mony of these witnesses was to the ef-
feet that the agreement entered into
between the Republican and Democrat
ic members to postpone for a few days
the contest proceedings in the two
houses of the Legislature, by which
members were to be unseated in each
house, was entered into on the part
of the Democratic members for the pur-
pose Of preventing disorder and viol-
ence and disrupting the Legislature.
and not for the purpose of electing a
U. S. senator; that had these contest
proceedings continued in the House.
the Democrats would have had clear
majority on joint ballot, and would
have been able to elect the u. s. SEN
ator and had votes to spare; that the
Republicans had given the Democrats
to understand that il Logan and Dent
and other Democratic contestants
were unseated they would retaliate by
ousting Democratic members from the
Senate, one for every Democratic mem
Der seated in the House, and this
without even a hearing Of their cases;
that the agreement was entered upon
the part OF the Democrats with the
full knowledge that it would deprive
them Of the chance of electing a Unit

violence If they did not aecede to the
demands made by the Republicans in
admitting Republican claimants 10
seats, whose names had been placed ON
the rolls by the Secretary of State, but
who did not hold legal certificates Of

Is only necessary to tie sheet Of thin,
strong paper over the flaring end Of an
old tin horn. Hold the horn with the
sheet Of paper upward. Take little
pinch Of fine sand and place 1t in the
center of the paper. Then hold the
horn veSically above your face and
sing a note into the lower end of the
Instrument. Now lower the horn care
fully and look at the sand. You Will
find that the vibrations Of your voice
have scattered the pinch Of sand into
a beautiful sound picture. Every note
In the musical scale will produce q
great variety Of them. Some Of these
pictures look like pansies, roses and
other flowers; some like snakes. and
others like flying birds; In fact, there
is no limit to the variation. The pic
