LAID IN ROYAL TOMB
FINAL ACT IN BLOODY TRAGEDY
OF PORTUGAL TAKES PLACE.
FUNERAL is IMPRESSIVE
Manuel and the Queens Unable to
Follow Coffin on Foot
Franco Arrives at
Bordeaux.

Lisbon.-The simple but impressive
funeral services Saturday were the
final act in the bloody tragedy of the
royal family. All the arrangements
for the solemn march through the
city and the ceremonies at the Church
Of San Vincente were carried out.
Although 1t is the ancient custom in
Portugal for the new sovereign to
walk behind the coffin of the dead
monarch, as King Carlos did when his
father was buried, neither of the
queens nor the boy king was able to
endure this trying ordeal. Additional
troops were brought into Lisbon to
accompany the cortege and line the
route of march.
MANY Floral Tributes.
The last of the special foreign mis-
sions to attend the funerals arrived
in Lisbon Friday night and hundreds
of floral tributes were received at the
palace. Practically every government
was represented. Charles Page Bryan,
the American minister, sent two

pressions of the most profound sorrow
of President Roosevelt and the Ameri-
can people, and the other to Queen
Amelie, conveying the heartfelt re-
grets of the American nation. The
bodies of the king and the crown
prince we're viewed by the members
of the diplomatic corps Friday after
noon as they lay in the royal chapel.
Every hour during the day masses
were said at the affairs in the palace
chapel and, according to tradition,
priests prayed before the caskets
sprinkled them with holy water and
burned insense. The principal mass
of the day was celebrated by the
Papal Nuncio. 1t was attended by
King Manuel and Queen Amelie and
the members of the diplomatic corps
in uniform and the gentlemen and
ladies of the court.
Franco at Bordeaux.
Bordeaux.-Senhor Franco arrived
here Friday. The former premier OF
Portugal brought large amount OF
baggage with him. A group of news
paper men awaited him at the sta
ton, but when they stepped up he
waved them away with gesture OF
weariness and ignored the questions
they asked him. He walked quickly
to his hotel.
The face of the man is haggard and
he appears to be pre-ocCupied. He
looks constantly to the right and tC
the left, as if he felt he should be pre-
pared to forestall some impending
physical danger.
Senior Franco told the manager o1
the hotel that he would remain ovel
night. as he wished to change his
Portuguese money into French money
having none of the latter. He did moi
say where he purposed going Satur
day. The hotel was guarded all nigh
by the police.

one hope of his lonely life"
He paused for an instant and shrugged his shout
ders YEARLY. The other did not so much as glance
at him. His eyes closed tight, his mouth was
drawn into thin, straight line. his fists
cenched. He held himself so still that it seemed
though he scarcely even breathed.
Seeing this, Browning went on, Alice remem-
bered his goodness to her. his thoughtful care, his
boundless tenderness No man, remember, had
moved her heart she knew little of life nothing
of love. 1t is easy to understand how gratitude

"Lenox!" the tone in which Ransome whispered
the word strange that at last it attracted
Browning attention and he glanced quickly up at
him. But not quickly enough. Anticipating the
movement the other had bent his head down
the paper he still twisting in his fingers In the
shadows it still obscure.
"Yes, Lenox" Browning remarked after silence
THAT is where the girl lives"
Obi! sighed Ransome and the way in which he
said the one word spoke volumes. Suspicion had
now become certainty. He who uttered it was, even
as he did parting from hope which he had treas

vain, and without which his life would always be
solitary and alone.

admitted, sudden grave tenderness creeping into

NEGRO CHURCH BUILDING FUND.

The members of Bethel church of

Gus committees reported $435 collected
for the new building fund. Rev. Rich
ard Carroll sent the church a contribu-

following appeal to the Laurens people:
Columbia, S. c., July %, 1908.
To the Citizens of Laurens County,
White and Colored:
The pastor of the A. M. e. church,
Rev. f. Y. Dendy, is a verv valuable
citizen to have in your community. He
is a good preacher and a good counsel
Tor and an energetic worker.
The loss of his church by fire is a
great calamity and no citizen should re-
fuse to help him and his congregation
in time of need. The negro must have
a house of worship to praise God in and
hear the Gospel or he is doomed to de-
struction. 1t is very important that
these people have a place to worship.
| for one, though a Baptist, appeal to
all to help our Brother Dendy to fix up
his house of worship so that his people
can serve God under their own vine and
fig tree.
