Nc HIS FUNERAL.
e Who Paid a Good Price
See 1t Through Properly.

Nrruin tne InlcaRo RECORD
A curious incident is related by the Jap
anese papers. Mr.. Kumekawa, of Kobe
like every other intelligent Japanese, de-
sired that his funeral should be attended
by ceremonies appropriate to his rank and
social position, and In order that he might
not be disappointed in this respect, having
reached his seventy-seventh year and feel
ing that his days were numbered, he de-
termined to have his funeral in advance and
make the arrangements himself. There
fore, on the day appointed his relatives and
friends were invited to his house and gath
cred around an empty coffin with all the
paraphernaiia of mourning and engaged in
the most elaborate Buddhist ceremony that
could be devised. Mr.. Kumekawa sat at
the head of the casket and watched with
interest all that was going on.
After the ceremonies at the house were
concluded a procession was formed which
marched through the principal streets ID
the cemetery. MIR. Kumekawa walked in
front of his own coffin. The floral offer
ings were numerous and beautiful. The
Kobe city band led the procession and
played modern airs, while at intervals
We're groups OF dancing girls and members
of the theatrical profession, who per-
formed pantomime allegories to illustrate
the nobility OF Mr.. Kumekawa's character
and the loss that was suffered by the
community at his death. Just before
reaching the gates of the cemetery the
procession was halted and several photo
graphs were taken. After the coffin had
been lowered into the grave and covered
with floral offerings the funeral party pro- 4
ceeded to the Jinko Club, where an elaP- /
crate feast was served and speeches eaio-
CYSTIC OF Mr.. Kumekawa were delivered by |
several of his friends.
Mr.. Kumekawa was thoroughly sausne1 |
with the success of his funeral, a!thoagn /
il cost him large sum of money. and ne
may now depart in peace, knowing that all |
the rites have been observed. and when he /
dies il is only necessary for his family to
place his body in the coffin that lies in the
ground.

Lively times are ahead for the men
who brlbcd the Legislature 10 pass the
notorious elevator and warehouse bill.
The feeling of Indignation over the
matter on the Board of Trade still
knows no bounds,
A local detective agency, which has
been At work on the matter, has Sc
cured evidence sufficient to send three
men 10 thc penltentiary sure, ana prob
ably two others.
The Eagle has secured afildavlts
from several members of the Legisla-

Chicagoans who We're in Springfield
ana who bought up that body for The
elevator bill.
Twelve other allidavlts are in the
hands of responsible parties, and
things will soon be ripe for action.

Board of Trade to prosecute the hood
