The expectation of the Republican lead

The funeral of General Lawton will take
place next Friday. at o'clock, from the
! Church OF the Covenant, Connecticut Ave

services will be conducted by Rev. II. NJ.
W. Suyker, President of Hamilton COL

strictly a military funeral, and will, II
present intentions are carried out, be con-
fined to the army, the local military COM
paDies not participating in It.
Adjutant General Corbin received word
from Mrs. Lawton yesterday that any ar
rangements made by the War Department,
would be satisfactory to her, and it was
then decided TO hold the funeral next
Friday.
The body OF Major Frank C. Armstrong.
surgeon. will probably be placed in vault
and the funeral will take place on Satur-
day next.
The funeral train is expected to reach
Washington Wednesday night or Thurs
day morning, and the remains of General
Lawton. will be taken direct to the Church
OF the Covenant. where they Will lie in
state until the time of the funeral.
Press dispatches state that the mayor OF
Indianapolis has contemplated recalling
his request to have the body of General
Lawton stop in indianapolis, because OF
smallpox in that city, Il being thought
best not to have a large body Of citizens
assemble such as would undoubtedly greet

ordered TO take part in the ceremonies
will arrive next Thursday night and FRI

mains will be inferred was selected yester-
day. II is numbered Sal and is centrally

az the road leading from Fort Myer. At
uresent there are no other bodies inferred In
this plot and il is the intention Of the War

sible for a vast assembiage TO witness Tie
ceremonies at the grave.
Mrs Lawton and her family have been
offered the hospitality of the Arlington
Hotel during their stay in Washington. The
offer was telegraphed Mrs. Lawton by Ad

 In many homes elaborate decorations for the Christmas tree. including a "Christ-child," or angel, are kept on hand from season to season. Where the tree is dressed anew each year. the decorations are usually home-mads and much less expensive. Among the pretty and effective trimmings are chains of cranberries, strung with a needle on a stout thread, gilded wal nuts, cotton snowballs, dusted with diamond powder, festoons of popcorn. bundles of stick candy tied with bright ribbon, gay tarlatan bags filled with nuts and candy, handsome apples and oranges and the German almond pastry cakes (Marzipan).

The solution of alum should be so strong that it will dry almost as fast as sprinkled.

 The mother who deprecates the awk- ward appearance of the left-handed child may take courage from the fact that anbideXterity is now considered of enormous benefit to all manual workers.

 Beside the fact that the soft light Of candles at dinner is vastly more be- coming to the average guest. a scien- tific reason is adduced for their prefer ence.

 The method by which an average soap powder is made is given as fol- lows in the ''Soapmaker:' CduStic soda, lye and o,eine are first mixed to- Sethcr in the proportion of 10 g.
