Funeral services were held over the
body of the late Albert Jameson Lyon
at 10 o'clock yesterday morning, at the
home of the Iamented citizen in Ana
puni street. After the services the
body was borne away by the pail
bearers to be cremated.
The Rev. DR.. Deromus Scudder de-
livered very touching address. His
topic was Love as exemplified by
the life of the departed. He referred
to the death of the loving husband
and father, surrounded by his chill
dren at the dinner table. While jest
ing with his loved ones in his affec-
tionate manner, suddenly it seemed as
if some friend had touched him on
the shoulder and called him, for he
said Excuse me-" closed his eyes and
passed away, without a moan or
sign of pain. There was not even
a look of care on the face of the

A select choir sang the favorite
hymns of the late Mr.. Lyon, being:

different city churches, viz: Miss
Marion Bell, Mr.. Arthur F. Wall, Mr..

Mrs. Lyon showed remarkable Will

very nervous woman.
The pall-bearers were Messrs. Fred

John T. Warren, F. L. Gibson, Frank

To have the Premier in the House
of Lords, with a lieutenant in com
mand of the ruling party in the House
of Commons, is neither novel nor un-
common. Notable instances in recent
times are the administrations of Lord
Beaconsfield and Lord Salisbury.
Sir Henry's administration, the first
Liberal one in power for many years,
in spite of the usual Tory outcry
against any rule but that party's own,
and Notwithstanding that it's support
is derived from different factions,
with a large labor representation,
seems to be making a good record in
solving home problems and in main
tanning respect for the Empire abroad.

gress.
The meeting was most enthusiasts
TIC one and gave evidence of a greatly
added growth of interest in the work
since the last previous meeting" said
Mr.. Strain last evening in reviewing
the work of the convention.
BOISE was crowded, and I believe
there must have been at least a thou

the outlying residence districts and a

duct the various delegates to the quar-
tiers assigned them.
THE meetings of the congress ap-
pear to me to be growing in attend
ance, In interest and in the scientific
character of the matters to be con-
sidered.
The Montana delegation contained
about 80 delegates, and in spite Of
that small representation, in compar-
ison with Utah, Idaho and California
delegations. there is no question but
what we could have secured the presi-
dency of the association had Senator
Carten seen fit to accept the election

Carter left the convention because
he did not secure the office, but this
is incorrect, as he could have had the
Office had he desired it. The committee
on permanent organization was in fav-
or OF giving the presidency to him but
he did not see fit to accept, knowing
that the next convention would I've
held in California, which would neces-
state him making several trips across
the continent.
"As presiding officer of the couven-
ton, acting in the place of Governor
Pardee. Mr. Carter handled the big
meeting Nin a most admirable manner,
especially during the fight over the
forestry department instituted by Sen
ator Hepburn. In this fight, in which
the department was being defended by
Senator Dubois. the excitement was
intense, the speakers being applauded
at times, and at other times being
Kissed when their remarks became ex-
ceptionally bitter

den of the Taxpayers Mounts Up
Rapidly.
A..ociated Press Cable to The Evening
Times.
London, Sept. ia most disQuiet-
ing volume for the British reader is
the sixtieth report of the commissions
in lunacy.
From this 1t would appear that lun-
acy is increasing in the British Isles
in most alarming fashion. while the
cost of maintaining the pauper luna
tics appears to be rapidly mounting
cut of all proportion to the numerical
increase
AS showing what burden they are
to the British taxpayers. one finds
from the report that $4,000 persons
were detained last year at cost of
Is shillings a week each, every pen
ny of which had to be found by the
efficient members of the community.
Number Grows Fast.
In less than fifty years the number
OF insane has more than trebled. From
$4,000 in 1895 it has risen to $4,000,
an increase which is parallel to the
recent increase in the unemployed and
paupers.
An important section of the report
deals with the question how far in
sanity Is due to heredity. The number
OF cases which can be definitely as
cribed to this cause is given at about
one-Guarter OF the total.
One startling feature of the report
is that annually some 5000 persons
are discharged from asylums as NOM
inally recovered, such persons. as is
known from experience, being a source
OF danger of contamination to the
population. But over and above this
Is the large number of patients sent
into freedom every year mot recov-
ered."
Many Are Sent Back.
Last year there were 1872 of such
and the report calculates that "rath-
er more than one-third of the dis
changed. including in this calculation
these who have nominally recovered,
have to be sent back to the asylums."
There is, accordingly, constant
stream of uncured lunatics flowing
out of the various asylums as we'll as
a larger food that is always flowing
inward This, of course, helps the pro-
duction of hereditary lunatics One
sixth of the women more than 20 years
old admitted into asylums during the
last four years were widows. Less than
one-tenth of the men admitted were
widOwers.
