honorary pallbearers. But there was one other
courtesy which International etiquette pre-
scribes shall be offered under such sad circum-
stances In accordance with the usage OF
friendly nations the president of the United
States cabled to the president of Chile offer
ing the use OF q United States warship to con-
Vey on his last journey home the body of the
deceased diplomatist. The offer was accepted
and the Delaware has been assigned to act as
funeral barge on this voyage Of thousands Of
miles to Valparaiso and return. In accordance
however, with the wishes Of the Cruz family
the battleship did not start on her journey i'm
mediately after the funeral, but the trip was
deferred until this month, the hag-draped cas-
ket reposing in the meantime in a receiving
vault In cemetery at Washington.
The United States government has been
called upon twice before within a comparative
ly few years, to convey home the bodies OF emf
nent Pan-American statesmen who have died
In this country Some years ago the body of
an ambassador of Mexico was thus conveyed
home in state and only a year ago similar hon
ors We're paid to the remains Of the late Senior
Nabuco, who was for years the ambassador of
Brazil at our seat Of government. On neither
occasion, however, was there employed for the
service 50 imposing asvessel as the Delaware.
That the officials and the public OF Chile
will appreciate the Significance OF Uncle Sans
sending his largest and finest warship is the
expectation Of the American authorities and
there is plain intent to thus create an espe-
cially favorable tmpression-po possibly the more
so because Chile is one Of those South Ameri-
can countries with which the United States
has at times in the past been on the verge or
Ill feeling, and it Is the desire OF our statesmen
to allay any lingering suspicious and cement
friendship In this quarter. The Delaware was

THREE ORDERS OF SOCIETY IN NAPLES

There are three distinct classes in Neapol-
tan society-it would be better to call them
castes-the nobility and arstocracy, the gall
antuomini" or middle classes, and the .laz-
zaroni' or the submerged multitude"
The first class it is unnecessary to de-
SCRIBE the other classes live side by side
and are vet distinct and hostile. They differ
in religious and political convictions, in NOR
ais, In social customs, in food and clothing.
The galantuornini include the shopkeepers,
the small manufacturers, tradesmen book
keepers, persons engaged in clerical occupa-
tions, and practically all who are compelled
to earn their living, but who are not engaged
in manual labor.
They are generally liberal and often radical
In politics. The men express an open in
difference and often contempt for the church,
but require their wives and daughters to OBJ
serve ali the conventional religious duties,
and they themselves never fall to reach for a
crucifix or call for priest whenever they
imagine their own lives to be in danger
They are fond of dress and display and in
du1ge their taste as far as their means will
permit, but their wives and daughters are
kept In seclusion and are never allowed to
them.
The lazzaroni regard with contempt as
well as aversion the families of the galan-
tuomini, who are not wealthy and have to
struggle to keep UP appearances. The laz-
zaroni are strongly attached to the nobility
have often given practical evidences of loyal
ty and on several occasions have been of gu
preme service to the crown

They live cheaply in the open air, with a

The lazzaroni are SO accustomed to 5fetfd

icine. Here he gathered the fright
ened pioneers in the stone warehouse
for the night, and in the morning saw
them safely across the river before
the storm of savage fury. which car
ried hundreds of settlers to death was
upon them.
There is nothing in the meager his
tory Of Old Joe which shows that he
felt any close attachment for tho
whites, and after that one day of serv-
ice he dropped. back into his old life
again.
But some pride of the white man re-
NAMED in him SO that when the re-
wards for the Indians who had helped
the whites in the outbreak had run
through the red tape of government
departments and Joe received nothing
but few farming implements, he ac-
cepted them su1len1y and refused to
fight for what was his by right. The
gift of these tools he always consid-
cred as a personal insult
One piece of log chain he always re-
tanned, insisting that it was the per-
sonal gift Of Abraham Lincoln. This
chain, when he could be prevailed
upon to talk about the matter at all
he always exhibited with infinite
scorn as the gift of the great white
father for his services to his white
children.

are very Jealous OF receiving their due need OF
respect and recognition from their big brother
of the north This focusing OF the attention
of people on the east coast of South America
will come about through the circumstance that
the Delaware, being unattended by coal or sup
ply ships, will find 1t necessary en- route to and
from Chile to put in at ports in Brazil, Argen-
tina and other places for fuel, supplies, etc.
OF course the natives at each port cannot fail
to be impressed by the vessel and the impor-
lance which Uncle Sam attaches to her mis-
sion.
