.LEO'S REMAINS
LAID TO REST
Body of Dead Pope Entombed in
St. Peters.
THE CEREMONY is IMPRESSIVE
Much POmp and Deep SoIemnity
Characterize the Last Rites
as Conducted by the
Cardinals.

Rome July 27-The body of Pope Leo
was inferred in st. Peters Saturday
night. At shutdown the most important
and most solemn of all the obsequies
took place. The front doors of the
basilica were closed, and the vast church,
except for row of lights at the
shrine OF St. Peter, the candles about
the bier and those persons who had
quietly and reverently gathered there,
appeared deserted. About 1000 per-
sons had received invitations to at
tend the ceremonies. The cardinals,
who met earlier in the vatican, entered
the chapel choir, waiting there for the
arrival of the procession, Cardinal
Oreglia, the camerlengo, holding the
keys of command.
Cardinal Rampolla, as archpriest of
the basilica, was waiting outside the
gates, in violet robes, surrounded by
the chapter of the cathedral, which was
led by Mgr. Cepetelli, who conducted
the service. Drs. Lapponi and Mazzoni
directed the work of the removal of the
bier, which was executed by eight Sc

brilliant red robe costumes. Then, to
the strains of the "Miserere," which
walled through the lofty church, and
preceded by glittering cross held aloft,
the procession, carrying candles and
torches, slowly left the chapel and went
up the church, passing the bronze stat
ue and beyond the shrine of st. Peter
Those gathered fell to their knees Aft
er slow progress around the church the
sad cortege arrived at the chapel choir,
the bier being SO carried that the dead
pope entered head first, according to the
ceremonial, the chapel from semi-ob-
security flashing into the brilliancy of
the suddenly turned on electric light.
In the chapel the music changed to
notes of joy and triumph, and I'm Para
disum" rang out with telling effect.
From the outside the five bells of St.
Peters rang their accustomed salute
to the coming night, mingling harmoni-
ously with the music of the choir. The
scene in the chapel was remarkably eff
fective. The bier bearing the body was
received by Cardinal Oreglia. 1t was
placed in the center, backed by an altar
with beautiful image of the Madonna,
before which were burning four inn
mense candles in silver stats. Around
the two sides of the chapel, in the choir
seats, were SO cardinals.

Last Rites.

last time by Major-domo Cagiano, Mas
ter of the Chamber Bisleti and Count
Camille Pecci. The major-domo then
covered the venerable features and
hands with a white silk veil, bordered
with gold. Over this the project of cere-
monies spread a large red silk veil
which covered the whole person. Fire
was lighted in brazier and blown by
a bellows, the sparks rising almost to
the ceiling, while Mgr. Bartolini read for
20 minutes the "OTato Brevis, 9eulo-
giving the dead pontiff, and Notary Po-
poni, "a years old, read out the burial
record, a service which he performed
upon the occasion of the deaths of Pope
Gregory XVI. and Pope Plus TX. The
,monsignors of the basilica, aided by
the noble guard, then laid all that was
mortal of Leo XIII. in cypress coffin
lined with red satin and bearing on the
cover an inlaid cross, the entire sacred
college and Prince Colonna rising to
their feet as last tribute and sign of
respect.
When the body had been carefully
cealed with the red velvet covering
which before had been on the bier.
The major domo put beside the body

yer and bronze medal struck during
Leos pontificate. A eulogy, written in
Latin and setting forth the great
events of Pope Leo's life and reign, in

TERED with the body. When all had
been arranged the supreme prayer was
said and the last benediction given, all
present joining in. Half suppressed
sobs were heard on all sides. The sec
ond coffin was of lead and very heavy.
This coffin was sealed personally with
the arms of the camerlengo The ma
jor domo of the chapter of the BASIL
lea lighted a brasier which was used
in soldering the coffin, producing
sounds and sights strange to hear and
see in a church. These two collins
were inclosed in third casket of pol
lished walnut without decorations.
With Song and Prayer.
The sad duties were softened and
SmoOthed by the sweetness or the
singing of the choir and the prayers
of the clergy. When the last supreme
moment came the heavy collins, weigh
ing in all 1922 pounds, were rolled out
of the chapel, preceded by mace bear
ers and choirs singing as they went
and followed by all the cardinals. Pull
leys were attached to the coffin, and
soon, to the strains Of the "Benedictus
Dominus Deus Israel" it was hoisted
into the stone sarcophagus above the
door, where it will remain until the
grateful cardinals, created by the late
pontiff, shall erect suitable tomb in
the basilica of st. John Lateran,'
which was chosen by the pope himself
as his final resting place. Thus was
Pope Leo consigned to his long rest.

Orders Mfsunderstood.

The fast freight, south bound, re-
ceived an order at Dodge Center read
ing that the second section of the pas
senger train was three hours late, and
the crew evidently misread the order
and attempted to make Vlasaty siding,
between Dodge Center and Hastings,
Mimi, thinking that it was the linn
tied that was late Meanwhile the linn
tied was pounding along at regular
speed and met the freight head-on just
after it, the limited, had rounded a
curve at Vlasaty. The morning was
foggy and neither engineer saw the
other in time to stop, although the
engineer of the limited had applied
the air brakes.
That the two trains came together
with terrific force was evidenced by the
fact that both engines were badly dam
aged, but they remained standing up
right on the tracks. The baggage and
buffet cars were completely wrecked
and turned crosswise of the tracks.
The first sleeper back of the buffet was
badly smashed in the forward end and
the four rear cars remained intact on
the track. These cars were used to
bring the dead and injured to st. Paul
and Minneapolis, where the injured
were given surgical attendance. None
of the passengers were seriously in
jured, but cuts and bruises were freely
distributed and the utmost confusion
prevailed following the impact of the
two trains.

Letter-carrier Robert N. Smith
died at his residence on Phoenix
avenue shortly after four O'Clock last
Tuesday morning from Bright's
disease. He had been suffering for
sometime from that trouble, but was
not aware of its seriousness. A few
weeks ago he gave up his mail route
and thought by rest and recreation
he would get better, but he was final
ly forced to his bed and died in few
days.
Bob," as he was .familiarly called,
was appointed carrier October Is,
1902, and before that served as
substitute for year. Before enter
ing the mail service he conducted a
cigar and billiard room in partner
ship with Harry Sven. He was a
faithful carrier, attentive to his
duties and always kind and cour-
teous. For several years he sang
baritone in the Church of the Re-
deemer. He is survived by his mother,
Mrs. Charles j. Cook.

At the last meeting of the Fri
day Evening Club Frank Waller
read letter from Robert D. Foote
relating his experience in endeavor-
ing to raise s., 500 for the proposed
improvements to the Lyceum which
have been told of in the Chronicle.
Mr.. Foote says that but little over
seven hundred dollars has been sub
scribed, and that the public seem to
feel the trustees should make the
improvements.
Is the public justified in such a
feeling +?
When one thinks of the Lyceum
being conducted as it u.s. as a bust
ness proposition the answer is yes.
The trustees say they have no
funds and can only get along with
what the rental of the hall brings.
This is not disputed, bur we are
free to say that if the Lyceum was
loosing proposition, the resigna-
ton of the present trustees would
probably be rendered III twenty
four hours.
There is another side to this
question and that is, responsibility.
The hall as it is now constructed,
has been condemned by able and
impartial architects as death
trap" If loss of life should occur
from insufficient mode of egress who
would be held accountable 7. The
public? No; the trustees of the
Lyceum, because they are negli-
gent, and have invited the public
into the trap"
1t seems right, therefore, that the
trustees of the Lyceum should
make these Improvements. They
have endowments which provide
for repairs, and the proposition Of
the Friday Evening Club certainly
comes under such a testamentary
clause

The election of DR.. j. Cole Price,
the Democratic senatorial nominee in
Sussex county, is practically conceded
by the Republicans, and the fact that
a Sussex county man was turned down
by Senator Kean recently for Morris
county man seems to indicate that at
headquarters Sussex was not relied
upon to do anything to assist Kean's
reelection. Trenton American.
Nothing of the kind. The Re-
publicans Of Sussex are said to be
more hopeful than ever of carrying
the county, and as for a Sussex
man being turned down" for a
Morris county man, that is simply
bosh. Sussex county is as proud
of the appointment Of John B. Vree-
land for United States District At
torney, as though il was credited
to itself.

Governor Murphy acted wisely in
vetoing the Miller ''rider" to the
Colby School Bill. The effort of the
Cumberland county representative to
relieve the perplexlng condition of
affairs which the new act will cause
in his county was excusable, but, as
the Miller act fell, as the Governor
says, distinctly within the con-
demnation" of the court which set
aside the school act of 1902 as uncon-
stitutional, it was idle to expect the
Miller act to stand.-Paterson Press.

Governor Murphy has vetoed the
Miller act which was passed to sup
ply some deficiencies in the new
school law. AS a result of the new
Colby school act and the Governor S
veto of the Miller act, every town
ship is now school district. 1t will
also affect the present Boards of
Education, the new law requiring
that the boards shall be composed
of nine members each. The act of
the Governor in vetoing the Miller
act may be for the best, but it GER
tainly looks as though it would
work hardship on great many
residing in the old combination
school districts.
