Chopin's Funeral March Played.
AT another point, and further away
from the more sacred surroundings Of
the house, the procession was joined
by thousands. There sprang up behind
it men of arms and men of peace, min.
listers and councillors, peers and COM
mOners, each having the bearing and
the garb of a mourner. The mournfui
strain of the pipes gave way to the
funeral march that has played to their
graves the greatest in this wide world.
Never did Chopin Is march sound moro
sweet and plaintive; never did the
roll of drums make the hearts of
strong men throb more quickly and
bring to their throats the Tightening
premonitory of outward display of sor.
row. Thus the slow march was kent
up to the gates of Hibiya, where other
tens of thousands waited, some in the
ceremonial dress prescribed by the
orders of the Emperor and others wear
ing as representatives of their cOun-
tries the uniform and the dress by
which custom denotes the highest
mark of respect. Lord Kitchener of
Khartoum, field marshal of England,
towering above all Others, his white
plumes waving, bowed before the cata-
falque as it passed; ambassadors and
ministers in gorgeous lace and uni
form were there to pay tho tribute
of their sovereigns.
At noon the rain began to fall and
so for the remainder of tho day as it
were even nature joined its sorrow to
| that of human tribute. Under heavy
clouded skies the now diminished pro-
cession passed on its way out into the
| suburbs where lies the other home and
the last resting place of Prince Ito and
there in the gathering darkness Of
| wonderful evening the ceremonial came
to an end and day that marks per.
haps "A new era in the history of Japan
came to its close.
