CHURCH BELLS WERE ToLLED
In Towns and Cities Through Which Passed the
Sorrow Laden Cars Drawn by Locomotive
Draped in Black.

Washington, Sept. 16.-Through a
living lane of bare-headed people
stretching from Buffalo up over the
Alleghenies down into the broad val
ley of the %Susquehanna and on to
the marble city on the banks of the
shining Potomac, the nations martyr
ed president made his last journey
to the seat of government over which
he presided for four and one-half
years. The whole country seemed to
have drained its population at the
sides of the track over which the
funeral train passed. The thin Inns
through the mountains and the sparce-
ly settled districts thickened at the
little hamlets, covered acres in towns
suddenly grown to the proportions of
cities and were congested into vast
multitudes in the larger cities. Work
was suspended in field and mine and
city. The schools were dismissed.
And everywhere appeared the trap
pings and tokens of woe. At all the
larger towns and cities after the
train got into Pennsylvania, militia
men drawn up at present arms kept
back the enormous crowds. The sill
ence with which the countless thou
sands viewed the remains of their
hero and martyr was oppressive and
profound.
Only the rumblings of the trains
wheels, the sobs of men and women
with tear-stained faces and the dole
full tolling of the church bells broke
on the ear. At several places, Will
Transport, Harrisburg and Baltimore,
the chimes pleyd Cardinal Newman's
grand hymn. Taken altogether the
journey home was the most remark
able demonstration of universal per-
sonal sorrow since Lincoln was
borne to his grave. Every one of
those who came to pay thir last tri-
butte to the dead had an opportunity

year.
The total number of deaths and
the cause of each in Montana, dur.
ing the last year, is contained in a
recent bulletin issued by the United
States census Office. Where the

but it may have been from the un-
dertakers.
For the whole state the. total num-
Der of deaths is given at 2,2S9, of
which LAO were males and S94
were females. Pneumonia, which
caused the death of 3O2 men and 1O5
women during the year, was the
most fatal disease. Next in fatality
was consumption, which was the
cause of death of 81 men and 67
women. Only four deaths-three men
and one woman-were caused from
smallpox, although the disease was
prevalent in the state nearly all the
year. In the case of SO males and 48
females, the cause of death is given
as unknown.

field in 1881.
Thou art gone to the grave! but
we will not deplore thee,
Though sorrow and darkness en-
compass the tomb;
For the Savior has passed through it's
portal before thee,
And the lamp Of His love is thy-
light through the gloom.
Thou art gone to the grave! we no
longer behold thee,
Nor tread the rough path of the
world by thy side;
But the wide arms of Mercy are
spread to enfold thee,
And sinners may die, for the Sim
less has died!
Thou art gone to the grave! but we
will not deplore thee,
Whose God was the ransom, thy
guardian and guide,
He gave thee, He took thee, and He
will restore thee,
And death has no sting, for the
Savior has died!
