The remains have had all the respect

your carriage and hurry up, for it's route

There's any amount of trouble about
music in funerals that aren't in the obse-
guy class-church and parlor affairs. 1
had one case only few days ago that put
a few more gray hairs on my head. When
l was making arrangements with the fam
lily pastor for the services l naturally ask
ed him if the church choir could furnish
the music and maybe sing an anthem.
Certainly said the minister, nothing
could give them greater pleasure, I'm
sure
AT the time set for the exercises the
choir was all there and the organist sat
down at the parlor organ and played in a
sort of musical whisper all sorts of things
that made you feel solemn, not regular
tunes but just faint sounds that must
have been very consoling. The choir was
with the minister at the head of the cask-
ct, the soprano and the tenor on his right
and the alto lady and the bass to the left.
I saw gentleman get up and go over
to say something to the orgauisL who
shook his head pretty vigorously and then
beckoned to me to come over.
Who's in charge Of the music at this
funeral? the organist asked.
Why, you are, guess / said. What's
wrong?'
'Nothing's wrong, only this gentleman
says he's a male quartette from some lolge
or other and he propose to sing at these
exercises. That's all that's wrong says
the organist, who was as techy as most
of his kind.
Then the other musician began to get
hot. and he says, The remains were our
brother in the lodge and we're the lodge
quartette and it's our fraternal duty to
sing at one another's funerals, and we re
going to sing, you can just bet. We're the
brethren that amt going to take any back
talk from any snipe at a parlor organ
~ set them tolh out into the back hall
to talk IL over, but il was no u.s. The
organist swore his choir wouldn't back
down for any male quartette that ever
quaried, and the lodge man was just as
positive thai there was going TO be some
singing at that funeral that night do tat
church Choir some good. 1t had to go at
that. The o-ganist went back to the Ill
tie organ and began playing as before,

of place. 1t is not the sort Of CONNER

to use the customary formulas of bust

Though Of necessity mortuary, the estab-

giles to the church choir and the looks that
passed between the two sets of music Were
sharp enough almost to galvanize our
friend in between.
After the mourners and the family had

Blue-grass blade., 1899-02-19
ONE CENT
VIII Buy a Blade, If as Many as 10
Copies Are Taken.

So far as ! am able TO Judge the
BLUE GRASS BLADE ranks as high.
in popularity and circulation, as any
lnfidel publication now printed, any
where in the world.
IL is my ambition and aspiration
TO give it much the largest circula.
tion of any Infidel, or any religious
paper In the world.
| think that II is probably more
widely known than any paper, not
excepting the Courier-J Journal. ia
Kentucky, and am going to try to
get for the BLADE the largest circu-
lation OF any paper in Kentucky.
In order to do this | will supply
the BLADE at ! cent a copy to any
and all persons who send me, in ad-
vance, the money for as many as 10
copies and from that on up to 900
copies, provided all the papers go to
any one address.
ln order to get the papers of each
week the money must be mailed not
later than will give the money time
to get to Lexington by Tuesday of
OF that week.
You can send the exact amount of
money each week, or you can send
the money in advance for any length
of time you desire, stating how many
papers you will take each week. and
you will be credited by the money,
and the papers will be sent you until
the money is exhausted.
Almost anybody, any where, can
find a boy to sell these papers at
prices ranging from 2 cents to 8
cents, and thus make a financial
profit while helping the BLADE.
| hope that friends of the BLADE
will take special interest in this plan.
