Of hymn, and then DR.. Roerdam de-
livered "a long panegyric touching on
the principal incidents of the kings
reign, dwelling on the great econom-
cal and political strides of the coun-
try under his benefcent rule and ad-
dressing consoling words to the many
bereaved royal personages throughout
Europe. The sermon was followed
with another hymn, the royal mourn4
ers joining in the singing. The serv-
ice was beautiful but as simple as all
the former ceremonies held since the
kings death. Then to the strains of
the funeral march composed by Hart
mann on the occasion of the death in
1874 of Albert Bertel Thorvaldsen,
Denmark's great sculptor, which was
accompanied by trumpets and GYM
balls, eight officers carried the coffin
from the chancel across to the chapel
Of Frederick.

It was an impressive moment As
the solemn notes pealed forth the win
dows of the cathedral were shaken
| by salute of Fl guns from a bat
terry outside, while simultaneously in
the town all flags were hoisted from
! half-mast to the masthead in honor
of the new king. A short wait en-
sued while the coffin was being de-
posted in the sarcophagus. Then

lowed by Emperor William and
Queen Alexandra, whom the emperor
assisted from her chair, and King
Haakon and the dowager empress Of
Russia, the four walking abreast pro-
ceeded to the chapel, where Dr.
Paulli read the burial service in
1 strict privacy and in the presence
only of the royal personages, the for

tiers. Earth being thrice thrown on
the coffin, the Lords prayer was re-
peated and the services concluded
with the benediction. A most impress
! sive conclusion was given to the cere-
meny by the rendering Of special
ode to the king, which choir Of stu
dents sang unaccompanied. The royal
mourners fingered while the battery
/ fired minute guns and the infantry
Il three volleys. Having knelt for some
time, the royal personages reverently
q kissed the catafalque and the ladies'
i having placed fresh flowers on the
coffin, all departed in the same order
that they entered the church.
