WRIT SERVED ON BoNI.
Made Defendant in Separation Proceed
 ings Brought By Wife.

tngs Brought Fly Wife.
 Paris, Feb. 16.-An urgent" writ was today served on Count Boni de Castellane, making him defendant In the separation proceedings of his wife, formerly Anna Gould. This decisive step was taken after renewed efforts to effect reconciliation had proved fruitless.
 The Count accepted service of the writ, even calling on the Countess's lawyers to facilitate fixing on a place where the writ could be delivered. The bill of complaint was filed at the same time. IL follows very closely the Countess's prima facia when she first asked the courts permission to take action against her husband.
 It mentions no names, but particu- larizes certain Incidents in which the Count is alleged to have participated. and It asks for a decree for what the French law terms Preparation of body and property" meaning complete ma terial separation without dissolution of the bonds of matrimony. The court holds the bill of complaint in the strict est secrecy. but the foregoing arc the essential features of it's contents.
 It can be stated with absolute posi- tiveness now that the Countess has for mally inaugurated her action that 1t Is her intention to secure a decree at the earliest date possible. The Count will not contest the granting of decree.
 The service upon Count Boni was made by Maitre Trichel in his capacity as representative of the Countess's att torneys. The latter Include Edmond Kelly. who has charge of drawing up the bill and the financial arrangements, and also Maitre Cruppi. who. as the Countess's French lawyer. will plead her case before the court. The Counts are Natures Bonnet and Bertlnot.
 The Countess will retin her title un- der the form of procedure frally adopt ed, but If the decree Is extended after three years to a divorce a vinouli. 1t will have the effect of terminating her right to use the title of Countess. I ne eldest of their three sons. Boniface. in- herits the title of Count without ref erence to the result of the case.

FUNERAL oF oHRIsrIAs.
Body of the King to Rest in RosIxiIde
 Cathedral.


 Copenhagen. Feb. 1e.--The body of King Christian was removed from the Christianborg Church here today to the Cathedral at RoslSilde. where 1t will be. buried Sunday, among the tombs of the Danish kings. who for thousand years have found their last resting place in the ancient capital of the king dom. The whole of Copenhagen was given up to mourning.
 Business and work were, at a, stand still where eniblenls of sorrow were dis- played everywhere. The enormous crowds of town people, garhed ip black. swelasd by sh houSandk of arrivals from the country districts. thronged the square in front of the christianborg Church and the route thence to tho railway station from early morning staLdfng patiently for hours in order to pay q last tribute to the dead mon arch.
 The windows all along the route were filled with spectators who paid high prices for. seats. Most of the owners of such places of vantage an- nounced their intention of devoting to charity, in memory of King Christian, the proceeds of the sale of seats.
 Shortly before noon the Kings of Denmark, Greece and Norway, Queen Alexandra, the Dowager Empress of Russia and other royal relatives of the deceased ana the representatives or foreign sovereigns reached the Chris tianborg Church where brief service was held, at the conclusion of which the coffin, covered with the Danish standard was borne high by naval and military oflceres to the waiting hearse,
 Then headed by infantry and cavalry, a simple cortege was formed and slow ly proceeded through the three and a half miles of streets between the church and the railroad station.
 Immediately behind them was led King Christians favorite riding horse, Jusuff, which will be shot tonight, ac- cording to the ancient Danish custom. The procession was closed with car riages bearing the male members of royal famili & represented at the fu- neral, the ladies watching the depar- ture of the body from a neighboring building.
 The bells of all the churches were tolled and minute guns were fired from the arsenai throughout the progress of the cortege and until the coffin was placed on the funeral train.
 This was the first time in history that the body of a Danish King has been transferred by railroad to the burial place. At the time of the death of Frederick VII the predecessor of King Christian in 1868, the use of a railroad train for the conveyance of the Kings body to Roskilde was not considered sufficiently dignifed

 New York. Feb. 16.--After so- journ of two years in the Philippines where he went to explore the flora of the islands for the New York botan- teal garden. Professor R. S. Williams has returned with tho conviction that the Filipino is a hard problem for the American to solve,
 You could not begin to get even 8 superficial insight into the character of the Filipino in two years said the pro- lessor yesterday. sOne would .have to spend a lifetime there to find out any thing about them"
 Professor Williams travelled in both the northern and southern islands, penetrating into the forests. which iu some places cover the islands down to the sea
 The Filipinos.a he said. have an innate aversion to work They are the most indolent people ] have ever en- countered. You see they don't have to exert themselves. The climate is hot. their clothing scant. and their wants few"
 In his excursions into the forests and over the mountains and lains Profess sor Williams happened upon some ln- teresting ferns lnosses and general flora, but Is very retioent about his discoveries
 My examination of my collection is not sufficiently advanced for me to talk about it." he said,
 T have not yet had time to sort the specimens" He found some beautiful orchids, but says the Philippine va riety is not comparable eitlle- in size or splencor with those that grow in South. America and especially in Vene- zueia. where the finests varieties come from.
 "Yes." he said in answer, to ques- tion, there are some parts of the is- lands 1t would not be safe to go on exploring expeditions without a mili- tary escort. don't know, however, that was in any particular peril from man or beast. The most redoubt- able animais encountered in the for- ests were wildcats and wild pigs, and even these were not by any means numerous

The father assented with oddly submissive

powerlessness of man against fate and thev ap-

simple people who were bent and aged by life of
unremitting toll welcomed them and made them
comfortable.
Here they stayed for many days. The boy played
among the trees, while the rested and tried to
regain his strength But it seemed though it

farm was under heavy mortgage and the sterile
soil refused to yield enough to pay the interest
Their failure to do meant that it would be taken
from them; and, barren and bleak as it was, it

The man. as he lay upon his bed of pain, used
to hear them talking of it. He used to hear
them join their prayers to the all mercfu1 God to
spare it to them. He envied them that they could
pray.
One day he heard them while he was idly reading

with his grief dumbly. 1t infinitely pathetic,
this silent woe-a lad deserted by everything, even
tears.
He had lived alone in the darkened house for
than two weeks now. AT first, after his father
had been taken away he had had some company.
Then one by one the servants had found new situa-
tions and had departed, leaving him solitary and
alone. He had stayed so until the day before,
when a man had come and informed him that he
could no longer remain in the house-it belonged
to some one else now-and that he must go to an
orphan asylum. He was waiting now for the man
to come and take him there.
To1nmy's mother had died when he was much

had brought him much more closely to his father
than children usually Their love for each other
was very strong and very wonderful. 1t was every
thing to both of them
They had never even been separated until the
night three weeks ago when the men had come for
his father and taken him away. Why they had come
clearly understand. In his childish mind he vaguely
imagined that he had gone to his mother, so little
did he understand of death Often in his conscience
he had pictured them meeting there with the
shining and great trees throwing cool shade all
about. He wished much that he might be with
them. He had asked his father that night to take
him, too; but for the first time his father had not
needed him. Why, he did not, could not under
stand. But then there was much about that night
that mystery to him.
Just always, his father had heard his prayers
and tucked him in bed, and he had fallen asleep.
Then, after long time, though it still dark, he
had been awakened by unaccustomed noises in the
house He had paid no heed to them, for his sleep
heavy is the sleep of childhood; but in
vague way they made him restless. Then suddenly
the light in his room was switched on, and when he
blinked open his stubborn eyes, his father, fully
dressed, stood beside his bed. There were strange
men there, too, with heavy features and coarse
faces who kept their hats on. Tommy did not like
them.
His father knelt down beside the bed and took
Tommy in his Afterward Tommy remem-
bered that his face was very pale, and the gentle
voice trembled as he
spoke. He said that

FIVE TELL ABOUT RATES.
Progress Made in the Commodity Rate
HEARING.

st. Paul, Dec. 5. - Much progress
was made in the commodity rate hear
ing before the railroad and warehouse
commission yesterday, when five wit
nesses we're examined by Assistant
Attorney General r. A. Stone.
The testimony yesterday attempted
to show that commodity rates in Min
nesota compare favorably with those
in other states and are lower than in
some places. When the traffic of GER
tain commodities has increased in
Minnesota so as to warrant reductions
it was pointed out, such reductions
have been made. as in the coal and
grain reductions made recently. 1t
was shown that there are some COM
modities which do not increase the
revenue of the roads and more reduc-
lions would not be feasible.
