M. Zola's Funeral.

The outside world may properly congratu-
late France on the decorous behavior of the
crowd in Paris yesterday. Maybe the threats
of disorder had been too f1amboyant Maybe
the pathetic nature of NJ. Zola's death had
worked with good effect on the spirit OF
even his bitterest enemy. But whatever
the explanation may be of order where dis
order had been feared we may felicitate a
brave and impulsive people on escaping such
a spectacle as the mobbing of a procession
conveying the body of an illustrious man
to his grave would have presented. NJ lola
belonged to history from the moment Of his
death. and history will render it's Judgment.
He did not fear that He asked no quarter,
and gave little, while his flag was UP. He
died with 1t flying. He had abandoned none
OF his philosophy. nor had he compromised
In any way the spirit which led him to
champion the cause of a branded and aban-
doned man. He had many traits which
enter into the best expression of the French
character mob at his funeral would
simply have disgraced itself

Washington at It's Best.

Perhaps with the exception of early May,
this Is the best time of the year for visit
TO Washington. The recent rains have this
season kept the grass in the parks richly
green. The flowers are abloom in the pub
lie grounds. The trees are just showing
the first touches of frost. with a faint glow
of autumnal coloring. The temperatures
are moderate. Not even the easterly winds
and hard rains of yesterday caused any Sc
rious discomfort. Indeed, Washington Of
fers her most smiling face just now to all
corners. The G. A. r. chose wisely in the
first place when 1t selected the capital city
for meeting place. and again when 1t
picked out this October week as the time
for the encampment.

+ The Grand Army Of the Republic.

To welcome the veterans of the Grand Army
of the Republic to Washington seems quite
superfuous. The city is theirs. They saved
it. They made possible the work which
since the close of the great civil struggle
has made the capital of the reunited coun-
try more than ever an object OF patriotic
interest. In the highest, truest sense, there
fore. they looking at their own today,
and certainly are welcome to all that they
may see and enjoy during their too brief
sojourn 1t is rather for those who live
here. to whom the city 10 wholly familiar
though not on that account any the less
beloved-to express their pleasure at being
at home on so happy and inspiring an oc-
casicn. They will endeavor to communicate
this feeling to the men of 81, and will es-
teen themselves favored if they shall sue
coed in that aim
Welcome in every city of the Union, the
old soldiers are thrice welcome in the capital
city. Interested they are in every city
of the Union. they are in the very nature
of things, unusually interested in Washing
ton. 1t was from here that the war for
the preservation of the country was direct
ed 1t was from here that many of the
orders came which sent them up in solid
columns against roaring guns. 1t was here
that the patient Lincoln and the tfreless
Stanton so powerfully wrought. and it was
here at the close of that four years of hell
that the victorious army mustered and
marched past their commanders prepara-
tory to a glad return to the pursuits Of
peace.
These men are veterans in years well
as In war service. But they are young in
spirit They must be, or the journey that
some Of them have made to attend the en-
campment would have been impossible 1t
Is reasonable hope therefore that they
may never grow really old, but to the last
day of their lives may retain that spiritual
freshness and vigor to which the man sus-
tanned by recollections of duty to country
well performed is thoroughly entitled.
The one regret of the hour Is the Presi-
dents enforced absence from the festivities.
All will share that. But II Is partially re-
teved for all by the consciousness that the
President himself will best enjoy the week
Ii assured that all Is going well without
him. OF the admiration Of the Grand Army
foe him he has had abundant evidence Of
his admiration for the Grand Army he has
repeatedly testified In words, but best of all
by copying in the brief war with Spain the
pluck and dash to which the men of Amer
lea are inevitably inspired when they study
as all should, the noble record of the fight
made by the patriots of the civil war.

Encampment Weather.

Today's bright sun and balmy air mt
every visitor in a mood thoroughly to ap-
preciate the reason why it rained so hard
yesterday, on the eve of the opening Of the
G. A. r. encampment. Washington wanted
to put on her brightest face and her fresh
est garb to welcome her thousands of
guests She needed good securing and
her streets required a thorough cleaning
The downpour of Saturday and Sunday did
this most effectively. and in consequence
the capital Is today at its best. well washed
down and clean as a new pin. OF course
the process was disagreeable. Those Wis
itors who arrived yesterday were depressed
for time by the weather. They found il
most disaereeable to make their way

be a step toward the system of paying

Thanks,

Thanksgiving soon will smile again
And we shall do our simple best
With fare that honest is, though plain
To note the things wherein we're blest
Midst many goodly things that thrive
Joy still may elevate the soul:
We're thankful that We are alive,
Despite the scarcity of coal.
They tell us that the futures black
They speak of 1t in tones of woe;
But we observe and say "alack!'
1t isn't carbon makes 1t so.
Uncooked the turkey in the pan!
Uncooked the pudding in the bowl!
Yet We'll be thankful as we can
Despite the scarcity of coal.

Turning From the Cities.
From the Boston Globe.

FfOm tne BOSIOn GlObe.
Among the tendencies of the times none
are more gratifying than those that are
gradually making rural life less objectiona-
BILE to the best elements Of our society. The
tide of rural exodus to the city shows some
signs of turning. Those who have been
leaving the old farms have more and more
disposition to turn back. The rush of rural
communities cityward is being stayed and
the country districts show more and more
marked signs of being rescued from deser-
ton. Certainly no more hopeful indication
were possible. City life stands, on the
whole. for mental, moral and physical de-
teriOration.

are camping out in tents. A little rain
more or less was nothing to them while
they could meet old comrades and see ia

the republic which they perpetuated. Per-
haps not as capable as a few decades ago
to Withstand severe stress, they gave no
sign OF their decline in years. but jauntily
made the best Of the situation. Today they
are richly rewarded for their philosophy.

Coal Strike Hardship,
From the Gardner Odainel News.

From the Gardner Niaine) News.
Visitors to the Washington monument are
feeling the coal strike very severely, for III
stead of being lifted up to the top on an
elevator. they are now obliged to climb the
long flight of stairs in order to enjoy the
magnificent view that may be obtained
from there. 1t has been deemed advisable
owing to the scarcity Of coal, to stop run
ming the elevator. The lazy person at lea 81
must hope that the price of coal with take
a tumble before long.
