HORSELESS HEARSEs.
Sora,thing That Undertakers Are
slsw to Adopt. ..sr<
Reasons for Their Reluctance to Use
Motor Wagons In Their Busi.
Aess-lt 10 Thought That
They Will BE Used.

The undertaken seems likely to be
among the very last users Of vehicles
for business and other purposes to
take up the automobile. New York
undertakers said lately that so far as
they knew there was only one auto
mobile vehicle running in the country
IN the undertaking business. That is
wagon used in Philadelphia. says
the New York Sun.
One reason for the undertakers not
taking up the motor vehicle is their
greater cost; another is the fear thai t
they might break down; sentimental
reasons apply also in the case OF the
hearse. The undertakers don't like to
take any chances.
At the Office of manufacturer of
electric wagons it was said that motor
vehicles could readily be made to serve
the undertaken and it was expected
that motor-driven hearses would in
time come to be regarded simply as
my other. The concern had in fact
been in negotiation with regard to tho
supply of vehicles of one kind and ar.
other for undertakers' use.
This view was shared by undertake
ers seen, who, though there is only one
motor vehicle and that not n hearse,
but a wagon. in use at present in their
business in the United States, expect
cd, nevertheless, to see them come
into use in 1t. Intensely conservative
as the undertaken might seem to be,
and most scrupulously and painstak-
ingly careful. as he really is, as to
avoid anything that could shock the
feelings of anybody concerned in the
dead. yet he is nevertheless progress
sive like everybody else. He uses now-
adays many appurtenances and nppli-
ances never dreamed of in old days,
and in all these things improvements
and advances ere all the time being
made.
Hearses md undertakers' wagons are
built nowadays with rubber-tired
wheels, and many Of these vehicles,
simple as they may be in design, may
yet be elaborate in workmanship and
finish. An undertnker's top wagon OF
the Kind familiar in this use, the black
painted. solid top delivery wagon in
which "a burial casket would be carried
from the undertaker's to the house.
costs commonly from $3.50 to $500; and
some run up in cost as high as 81, 800
4 fine and beautifully finished hearse,
though simple In form. might cost as
much as 5000; perhaps more.
Any Of these vehicles would cost
considerably more with electric mo-
tors; but whether undertakers are at
present deferred from using them
solely by the cost, or whether it is
the fear of breakdown. with the con-
se4uent annoyance, they express the
belief that such vehicles will come into
use before many years.
One undertaken said he expected to
see the motor wagons come into use
BY the undertaken and then he looked
TO sec the carriages in funeral pro-
cessions all motor-triven. and then he
expected 10 see motor-driven hearses,
the hearse thus gradually led up to
being the las, funeral vehicle SO pro-
PEELED TO come into use. Within five
years he rather expects TO see going
along the streets funeral professions
in which every vehicle. including the
hearxe, will be horseiesx.

THE UNITED STATES "IS."
Excellent Authority for the Use OF
the Singular Noun Given By
EA-SeesetaFy Of state.

Somebody recently criticised Gen.
John w. Foster, the ex-secretary of
state, because, all through his Cen
tury of American Diplomacy" he treats
United States" as singular noun, in
stead Of as plural one. This has
moved the general to investigate that
often moo:ed question with some care,
and his conclusion is that, despite the
wording of the constitution, there is
full justification for saying the
United States is" and not "the United
States are" He admits that in the
early days of the republic, while the
fact Of it being an aggregation of SOW
ereign states was still prominently in
mems minds, the plural usage was the
common one. but it was not universal,
even in the beginning, and Il one point
in the constitution there is the phrase,
Controversies TO which the United
States shall be party" not shall be
parties" as strict consistency would
require, says the New York Times.
Coming to precedents, Gen. Foster
lists. among the statesmen who habit
ually employed the singular form JEFF
ferson, Seward, Blaine, Edmunds, +. j.
Phelps. Webster. Benton, Fish. Ere
linghuysen, Motley. Reid, Gresham.
Silas Wright, Marcy, Evarts, Bayard,
c. +. Adams, Depew and Olney-cer-
,ainly long and varied category. In
the earlier presidential messages the
plural form prevails, hu, Andrew Jack
son used the other. and his example, in
this matter at least, has been followed
by his successors, and since Lincoln
all Of them have invariably used the
singular verb with "Cni,ed States"
And the general wants TO know why,
IL we must write "the United States
are" simply because the constitution
has il that way, we are not also obliged
to write "chuse," Instead of choose" !"
and to retain other photographed pc
cularities which appear in the pre-
cious old document. This is hardly a
fair question. since the use OF ":;s'' or
"are" after United States' involves
something very different from mere
spelling. Gen. Fosters usage. how
ever. is undoubtedly that OF 999 out
OF 1000 American citizens of the
present day, and what more or higher
warrant for 1t does he need than that,
particularly as the facts and the fash
ion are in completed accord?

Law to Encourage Early Marriages
Pennsylvania is the latest state that
is trying to encourage and regulate
marriage by new methods. Repre-.
sentative Roth, of Lehigh. introduced
bill in the state legislature lately
which provides that a male citizen of
Pennsylvania oven 40 years old max
Ing application for a marriage license
shall pay to the clerk of courts Ii
cense fee of 500. This Is to be turned
into the state treasury for the pur-
pose OF maintaining homes for women
over 40 years old who have not had n
suitable opportunity or offer of mar
riage and have not means sufficient
to keep themselves in clothes and
spending money. Any bachelor over
10 years who shall go outside of the
state for wife shall pay 800 into the
state treasury. The act is irrevocable
and can never be repealed without the
consent of the majority OF the old
women who have been regularly ad-
mitted to the homes established for
them.-Chicago American.
