nocent of the crime CT which he stands
convicted and is sentenced to Ole upon tue
gallows on November 8.
Funk was convicted of numbering Will
liam H. Brooks at his home. 914 Twenty
second Street northwest, on the afternoon
of June %, 1898, at about o'clock. Inc
first person to discover that the crime mad
been committed was young man named

Funk in Criminal Court No. / Larsen was

case at all stages and said that he would
not be surprised IL he were then present.
Upon locking around the court room he
says he saw Larsen calmly noticing the
proceedings.
As result of a little incident which oc-
Cured in Criminal Court No. ] last week
it is probable that there will be no more
delays in the progress of the business of
that court in the future During the trial
of case of minor importance, while Jus
tice Clabaugh was on the bench, the attor-
ney for the defence asked for a continu
ance because of the absence of some of his
witnesses. Justice Clabaugh was plainly
displeased that postponement should be
asked for under the circumstances and an
nounced from the bench that hereafter he
would not grant any requests for postpone
ments where 1t was not shown that due
diligence had been used to procure the
presence of witnesses. The court. however,
stated that he did not make particular
reference to the attorney for the defence
in the case on trial, but to the practition
ers before that court in general.
Attorney Fred Beall, who will defend
James Lanckton, who is under indictment
for the murder of Mrs. Bette Wrenn,
stated last week that he Will be ready for
the defence when the case is called TO
trial on November II next. Exactly what
the line of defence will be Mr.. BealI de-

FUNERAL OF W. II. sTALEE.
Remains to BE Inferred mt ROcL
Creek Cemetery This Afternoon.

Creek Cemetery This Afternoon.
Funeral services over the remains of the
late William H. Stalee, who died at his
studio, 1107 + Street northwest, from
asphyxiation early Saturday morning, will
be held at the family residence in Brook
land this afternoon at 2 o'clock. 1nterment
will be at Rock Creek Cemetery. Mr..
Stalee was a member of a local lodge OF
Masons. which will probably attend the
funeral.
About fourteen years ago Mr.. Stalee first
came to Washington. For a brief time he
was employed at the Photographic estab-
lishment of c. NJ. Bell, but upon the re-
tirement from business OF VI. B. Brady Mr..
Stalee bought his paraphernalia and as
sumed his business. Several years ago he
took possession of the studio in F Street,
where he remained until his death.
The sudden death of Mr.. Stalee was a
shock to many friends. He was at work
until late Friday night, and being unable
TO catch a car to his suburban home de-
cided to remain at the studio all night
In retiring it is thought he failed to prop
erly adjust the key governing the gas jet
for he was found dead the following morn
ing and gas was escaping from one of the
burners in his room.

reactions in its favor, in spite of growing
toriuptions and Efforts to mingIe with it
the music of a later period The modern
tendency which has given 10 he later
OratnriOs an operate .tamp, however.
has been reflected in the case of some of
the church music even of the great mas
tiers, by the composition of ecclesiastical
works richly harmonized and calling for
a full complement of male ard female
voices for its most Elective performance.
The reported decision to order a return
to a simpler music of the plain chant and
the choir of male voices would seem to
foreshadOw another of those reactions
against the modern tendency. In the
council at Trent in the sixteenth century
the church inaugurated just such Il re-
form. the result of its work being the
restoration Of the plain chant, in all its
dignity and power, and the temporary
abolition of the growing tendencies in
church service to the use of rhythm and
counterpart and popular or "worldly"
music. The employment of musicians
familiar with the modern system of nota-
tlon and the tendency to supplant the
churchly modes with the major and
minor modes OF modern music marked
another transition period. and the mod
ern influence ever since has been com
batted y it'll difficulty by the advocates
of the older system. Later the use Of
women singers generally in Europe and
in this country, so far as it facilitated
the production of the masterpieces writ
ten in a secular style. re-enforced this
tendency. and no doubt the great beauty
and impressveness of much of this music
has had its effect in determining sent-
ment in its favor. There may be reac-
ton toward the plain chant resulting in
the publication and elevation of style in
church music. But at present it seems
improbable that the church will decide
upon reforming its discipline so far as to
combat an evidently growing influence.
Nor is il at all sure that the church
would deem it necessary at this iuncture
to forbid the use of wompns voices,
which are 50 essential in making possible
the effective production Of music of this

that he wouldn't exchange places with

clared that the squar had made 81 diff

meetin was Does Honesty Pay" The
