The choir met the funeral cortc ge
on the steps.
The highlanders, pipers and SER
wants on their arrival went straight
in the mausoleum and took up the
positions allotted to them.
Then the coffin was carried into the
mamsoleum, preceded by the choir
and clergy. The members of the
royal family on entering took places
on each side of the sarcophagus. the
royal household standing in the
transient on each side.
The whole of the castle was kept
clear. The ground from the George
~. archway to Long Walk gates
were under the control of the lord
steward and the Office of works,
which issued tickets of admission.
The portion of Long Walk over
which the procession moved was un-
der the direction of the mayor of
Windsor.
All concerned, including the mourn
ers, walked. A large force of Lon
don police had been appointed to
keep order and the spectacle was
very impressive, bands playing fu-
neral marches until the mausoleum
was reached.
After that the ceremony was
private, as there was only room for
the mourners and clergy. The choii'
sang Sir Arthur Sullivan's antho IN.

liam will remain for the reading of
Queen Victoria's will, which is in
her own handwriting, and is a most
voluminous document, including ev-

WILL BE FIRE PROOF
state Inspector Approves Plans for
New Packing House.

State Insurance Inspector Eldridge was
in the city yesterday for the purpose of
inspecting the plans for the new Dold
packing house. 1t is the intention OF
Fred Dold to rebuild the big packing
house as nearly fire proof as possible,
and that was his reason for submitting
his plans to the insurance inspector.
Mr. Eldridge was delighted with the
plans for the big new packing house. He
pronounces them the most perfect of any
packing house In the west The solid
stone walls in all the adjoining build
ings, and the vestibules of solid masonry
at all the entrances, he considers just
the thing to prevent the spread of fire
II the old building had been constructed
or this plan the fire could have easily
been confined to the box factory, and the
great loss averted.
The new Dold packing house win not
only be one Of the most complete in the
west. but it Will be a snap for the insur-
ance companies. It would be little short
of a miracle If it ever burns down. The
Dolds viii build this time with the in
tention of never again being interrupted
with a fire. It VIII be built UP in hurry
after the bond election. The ground viii
soon be cleared ready for the builders to
commence work.

RINeLINes ARE COMING.
Americas Big Show viii be in Wich-
tia October 1.

Ringing Bros. circus will exhibit in
Wichita again Tuesday, October 1. It
began to look as though the city was to
be without a circus of national reputa-
ton, and the coming of so popular an
institution as Ringiing's will be cause for
general felicitation. Certainly no show
stands better in the community, and no
show Of its kind has ever given an equal
degree Of satisfaction. Three years ago,
at the time of the shows last visit to
Wichita, it was a big institution-so big,
in fact, as to excite comment because of
its colossal proportions. This years ex-
hibition is larger and more elaborate,
however. in every way. Within the past
two or three years the show has grown
so fast as to create a precedent in the
amusement world. and there is no doubt
that il is today the largest and most
complete circus, menagerie and hippo
drome before the American public This
is evidenced by the enthusiastic COM
ments Of the press wherever the show
has exhibited-and this practically COM
prehends the entire United States. The
shows tour this seasons has extended
literally from ocean to ocean, and from
the Great Lakes to the Gulf of Mexico.
1t is said TO be the largest tour ever
made in a single season by & travelling
organization. Even Canada was included
and the people of the Dominion given an
opportunity to see g show that had made
the entire United States talk. The Ca
madam tour was distinct success. The
Pacific coast tour, which is now under
way Is also phenominally successful.
The San Francisco Examiner, speaking
of the show 4 few days ago. declared
that st surpassed IN magnitude and
originality anything IN the curious line
ever seen in California" Wichita is one
of the few cities to be played on the re-
turn trip. and the coming OF the show
VIII undoubtedly be the signal for one
OF this citys old-tirae circus crowds.

soon as he can get building or property
to suit him. He was accompanied by his
wife and their bright young lady daugh-
ter Miss Carrol.
Mr.. Edwards, in a sense, made a sac
rifice in coming to Wichita. He has lived
at Larned for time out of mind, being
one of the first settlers in Pawnee county.
He made the sacrifice of long association
with neighbors with whom his ties of
friendship were strong. He also has large
interests in Pawnee county, larger, per-
haps than any other man in the county.
Mr.. Edwards selected Wichita for his
permanent home for many reasons. The
first Of these perhaps is the fact of his
connection with the Orient road and the
great future he sees for the city because
of the advantages it will derive from
Orient friendship. Last year when Mr..
Edwards was in Wichita submitting the
Orient proposition nc told a reporter for
the Eagle privately that the Orient con-
templated doing so much for Wichita
that he intended locating here. He has
done so now, which amply proves his
faith in the Orient's intention to make
Wichita an important point. He also
comes here on account of the superior
educational advantages, being a great
friend and admirer for some years Of All
Hallows academy.
Mr.. Edwards is one Of the strong lieu

moter OF the Orient road and he win
begin at once to manage much of its af-
fairs from Wichita. It is tho Intention to
prosecute the work Of actual building

are now in the city working on routes
into and through the city. It is now only
a question of how soon the steel rails
can reach here. 1t has been DELAYED on
account Of the strike or it would have

it was chosen entirely upon its merits.

I did not approach any member Of the

and no member approached me with any
