BODY OF VICTORIA ENToMBED
AT FROGMORE.
ONLY FEW ARE ADMITTED
Last Rites Witnessed by Royal
Family and Queens Late
Servants.

Windsor, Feb. 1.-The last honors
have been paid Queen Victoria, and
her body now rests peacefully beside
that Of her husband in the mausoleum
at Frogmore. The final ceremonies
were more of a pathetic character than
any of the %obsequies which preceded
them.
Shortly before 8 O'Clock in the pres
ence of the royal m%curners, the grena-
der guard of honor lifted the coffin
from it's temporary resting place in
1t on a gun carriage. In the mean
while the queens company of grena-
diers, drawn up in the quadrangle,
presented arms and held their rifles at
the reverse and with slow, measured
steps marched towards the mausoleum.
At the head of the procession was q
hand playing Chopin's funeral march.
Slowly the cortege passed under the
massive archway IN the long walk,
which was a mass of black, brilliantly
edged with scarlet. Life guardsmen
kept the crowds back. In place on the
gun carriage was the same regalia
which attracted the attention of
thousands since the march to the
grave began at Osborne. Close behind
walked the king, Emperor William
and the duke Of Connaught.
By $3.50 p. m. the crowned bier had
passed into the old lodge which leads
from the Frogmore enclosure, where
none but the family and servants were
admitted. The choir met them and
the royal family and the choir entered
the burial place SC dear to the late
queen, and ranged themselves on each
side of the coffin. The bishop of
Winchester read the larger part Of the
burial service.
After further singing by the choir
the benediction was given and amidst
the privacy of the family tomb the
funeral came to an end.

Special to The Daily Gazette.
Helena, Feb. II Representative
Quinn's eight-hour bill needs only the
governors signature t become a law.
It passed the senate with only one
amendment, which makes the law
effective 80 days after it's approval by
the governor.
Several other amendments were
offered, but all defeated. These did
not seek to defeat the objects Of the
bill, but to remove the antiquities
that it is claimed exist as to whether
men descend into the mines and eat
dinners upon their own OF the COM
pany's time.
Clark and Meyer were foremost for
the amendments. Connolley, Ken
needy and Courtney opposed them.
The bill passed the senate under a
suspension of the rules without a dis
senting vote and was hurried over to
the house, where the amendment was
concurred in.
Miners and smelter men thronged
the lobbies and loudly %applauded the
result.
The house defeated Stull's bill seq

adding it to Yellowstone county.

Helena, Feb. 2-Governor Toole
today signed the eight hour q day law
for mines and smelters. Some of the
smelter men say they will have to shut
down because of inability to conform
to the law, but friends of the measure
discredit such statements. The law
goes into effect in 80 days.

FOR HIS LIFE
Minneapolis Newspaper Man on
Trial Charged with First
Degree Murder.

Minneapolis, Feb. 1.-The trial of
Frank II. Hamilton, the newspaper
reporter, for the murder of Leonard
r. Day, the young millionaire, was
begun in the district court this morn
ing before Judge Brooks.
The case was set for 10 O'Clock, but
two hours before that hour the court
house corridors were choked with a
crowd struggling to get near the door.
The arrangements were perfect, how
ever, and room was reserved for the
lawyers, the talesmen and the press
and the crowd was let in singly until
the court rooms capacity had been
reached.
Judge Brooks appointed L. R. Lad
son, S. L. Baker and Elijah Barton,
triers and the tedious work of secur
ing a jury began. The first man .
amined, was accepted. He was E.
Peabody, a draughtsman, who adj
mitted that he had some doubts as to
his ability to try the case fairly and
who had known a nephew Of the MUIR
dered man. The defense withdrew
its challenge for actual bias and ac-
cepted the juror.
The defendant was in court looking
calm and confident. His health is
good save for a slight attack of the
grip.
One additional juror was secured at
the afternoon session. His name is
Charles Raymond, an employee of the
Interstate Elevator company, who
lives in Minneapolis. Both jurors SO
far have admitted bias, but they were
accepted on their general qualifica-
tions. About 20 jurors were examined
in all.
The acoustic properties of the
court room T wretched and the spec
tators are unable to hear more than a
third of the proceedings. The same
difficulty is experienced by the attor-
neys connected with the case.

Why 1901 Seems Familiar to Him.
1T may sound odd to you," said a
bOokkeeper. but the date 1901 seems
already more familiar TO me than 1900
ever did. You see. we don't get a cipher
at the end of a year date but once In
ten years. and we get two ciphers there
only once in a hundred years. Practi-
cally no man ever sees more than ono
in his lifetime a year with two ciphers
In 1t. and as a matter of fact 1t
gets to be familiar to him. and 50 1900
seemed just about as strange at the
end of the year as it did at the begin
ming. whereas a year running out with
figures. to which we are accustomed,
does seem familiar. Actually 1901
seems like an old friend. and Tm glad

their friends started on a Wisconsin

took steps to prevent it.
The fight may come off before morn

the vigilance of the Wisconsin officials

At an early hour this morning it

An IMMENSE CROWD.
Thronsed H. J. VermeuIen's De-
partment Store Last Friday
and Saturday.
A GRAND SUCCESS.
The Souvenirs Did Not Last Through
the First Day.

| II. j. Vermeulen's big department.
store was formally opened to the public
last Friday and Saturday, and an
immense crowd was in attendance from
the beginning Friday morning until late
Saturday night. Mr.. Vermeulen did
not anticipate that nearly so many
people would visit his store during the
two days and therefore was very agree
ably surprised 1t was his intention to
present each lady visiting his store with
a handsome souvenir, and supposing
700 would be sufficient quantity, he
only purchased that number, but before
closing Friday night every souvenir
was gone and he was compelled to dis
appoint those who visited his store on
Saturday. On Saturday It was steady
stream of people going in and out from
| early morning until late at night. Dur
ing the evening the Alma band furnish
ed music for the visitors and during
this time there was the largest crowd
IN attendance, fully one thousand
people il was estimated az being in the
store at one time
Mr. Nermeulen now has the finest
aud largest store of the kind in this part
of the state outside of Saginaw and
Grand Rapids, and there are very few
in either Of those cities that will equal
it, The Interior Is l35xS2l2 feet, divided
into three departments in front while
the new part at the back is one large
room, although each department is kept
separate from che other The best feat.
ure of all is that the whole of this large
space is filed with salable z DDS, only
room enough being saved to provide
lunch tables for those who care TO utilize
them. The cashiers desk remains in
the same place as before, while raised
alcove has been built in the rear-of the
store for the book.keeper One of the
new features that have been added to
the store is the five and ten cent counters,
and already these have proven a decided
success, some of the articles being sold
entirely out. The whole store is lighted
with Howell incandescent gasoline
lighting system, and the different de-
partments present very beautiful APP
pearance in the evening 1t takes
a steady force Of seventeen clerks TO at
tend TO the wants Of the customers dur
ing the week, and on Saturdays this is
increased to twenty five. 1t is certainly
a mammoth store for town of this size,
but MIR. Vermeuien is planning for the
future as we'll as the present, and it is
his aim to keep little in the lead of our
rapid growth and enable his customers
TO secure what they wish at all times
without being obliged to go to the city

1.-THE great game" would be played aud
the town turned ont en- masse to yell
for the visiting team. Alma was
handicapped from the start The Ann
Arbor train was one hour late Monday
morning so good connection could not
be made at Owosso. 1t was three o'clock
when the tired Alma boys pulled into
Albion The game began Albion was
fresh and played fast and high Alma
was tired and played slow but low and
sure. Both teams were strong on the
offensive and weak ON defensive playing
1t was an even match, Albion's men
averaged lG7, Alma 1862. The ball did
not change often. 1t went from one
end of the giTdiron 10 the other and
when 1t approached either goal the de-
Tending team gathered up their strength
in desperate struggle and wrenched it
from the other side The first half end
ed with the score of 0 to 0. The
second half was fercer than ever. Both
teams were bound 10 win Victory
hung in the balance until three minutes
before the time expired. 1t was Albion

They tried place kick and it succeeded
II was a case of pure good luck for Albion
The score stands Albion Alma 0, but
Alma holds no grudge for that. Albion
played a good game and showed "A
Rentlemanly spirit throughout, Coach
Mortimer praises his men in the highest
terms. Schenck played fine game as
quarterback on defensive. Crawford
did some excellent tackling. Beechler
made long gains, but the coach feels
that Alma ought 70 have won that game.
Alma held Albion five or six times for
downs, while Albion held Alma only
once.
The only real unpleasant feature of
the game was a severe injury sustained
by the captain of the Albion team. His
knee was hurt in scrimmage and it is
probable that he will not be in the game
again this season.

practice game for the captain wanted
his men to be in the best possible con.
dition 10 meet Albion Monday, so Alma
didn't play very fast game Ferris
showed marked improvement over
last years playing but they only got the
ball once, on the kickoff when they
made good gains for few downs, but
Alma soon got the ball and never
afterwards lost it, The halves were
fifteen minutes, neither side scoring in
the first half. Alma scored twice in the
second half, Fuller kicking goal both
times, making the score l2 to O.
Ferris gains were made principally
by a double pass play, the quarter back
carrying the ball, Alma used her tackle
formation plays to advantage. Our
defence was weak; another feature Of
the game was that neither side resorted
to puuting Ferris men average l75
pounds. They have some good men but
their team work is bad, due to the lack
of coaching

TWO GAMES OF FOOTBALL.

The results of the two games on Sat-
urday and Monday in Big Rapids and
Albion respectively might at first seem
unsatisfactory to the home team and yet
Captain Fuller feels that he has every
reason to be proud of his team. We
believe he has reason to feel proud Of
them. for Coach Mortimer speaks only
in words of the highest praise of the
work done by the boys at Albion. The
scores do not indicate much. People
who saw the games say that Alma
played good football in both games es.
pecially in the latter The element of
chance enters more or less into every
football game and it is a remarkable
feet that luck goes against Alma nearly
every time. Every game played this
season Alma has loss the toss for the
kickoff.
