CHEERFUL FUNERALS.
London Now Runs to Gaudy COIora
In TrappinEs of Woe.

I
In Trappings of Woe.
Many people find it difficult to realize
that the old fashioned funeral. with its
somber hearse, black horses and its At.
mosphere Of Grape and black bordered
handkerchiefs. is now almost a thing
OF the past and survives only among
the poorer classes.
Ferhaps the account OF a Seventh
Day Adventist funeral. in which the
oody was borne in a blue and silver
hearse and the mourners attended
dressed in bright colors, NAV have
seemed extraordinary. but in reallt
the event in question was not much in
advance Of modern fashion.
In the north of London, for exampIe
an enterprising firm Of undertakers.
Messrs, Beckett q Sons, has provided
a number of many hued hearses ito

hearses in chocolate and gold" said
Mr.. Beckett. and others In blue and
gold. There is also a pure white hearse
and another in white and gold"
The dealers most magnificent vehicle
however. is a hearse entirely covered
with gold even to the wheels. and
this. he states, is in constant demand.
He, however. draws the line at green
and gold hearses. as he does not con-
slider them quite in keeping with a
funeral
The manager Of one of the largest
and most fashionable funeral compa- Z
lies in London also bore witness to the
growing taste for "unfunereal funer-

supervisor for the District of Honolulu,

she left the settlement. The funeral took

the honor attached to it, But the
honors were small without a court and
some matters to sit on in judgment so
little squabbles were quickly brought
before Nathaniel For month he had
a gay old time of it as Judge. He held
weekly examinations of applicants for
admission to practice law before his
court and as a result he licensed one
legged woman, and three blind men as
lawyers. Then he inflicted all sorts
of punishment for petty crimes, mixed
up civil with criminal cases and in n
months time the people were loudly
demanding his removal. Justice Perry
of the Supreme Court went to the Set
tlement to investigate but found that
nothing could he done and at Nathniel's
request he permitted the three blind
men to continue to practice. Matters
continued on these lines until last year
when two cases We're appealed from
Nathaniel's court to the Circuit Court.
Judge Ealua went to Molokai to hear
these appeals. In one case Nathaniel
had fined a man ten dollars and costs
and ordered him to pay four dollars to
a woman whose turkey had been kill
ed by the formers dog Kalua threw
this case out of court and Deputy She
riff Chnlingworth paid the woman the
four dollars as a salve to her feelings.

George M. Bacon, the contractor
on the Snake river bridge, arrived in
the city yesterday morning from Salt

the ground and to prepare to begin
construction work, but found the
river much higher than expected at
this time of year. Special material
for the Golfer dams has been ordered
from the east and is expected to ar
rive in week or ten days when he
hopes to begin active operations, as
the river Is falling very fast. He
hopes to be able to again secure his
