Simple but Impressive Services This Morning and the Body Taken North. The funeral services over the body of the late Brigadier General Thomas L. Casey, chief of engineers, were held this morning at the family residence, 1419 K street, at 8:30 o'clock. Notwithstanding the carly hour the big parlors were fille? with a dis- tinguished gathering, present to pay their respects to the memory of the dead soldier. Among those present were Secretary La- mont, Secretary Carlisle, Senator Morrill, Serator Gorman, Senator Frye, Col. John M. Wilson Gen. Vincent, Mr. A. R. Spof- ford, librarian of Congress; Gen. Horatio Kirg, Maj. Powell, the Engineer Commis- sioner; Prof. Simon Newcomb, Gen. H. V. Boynton and Col. Ellict. The services were brief and simple. They were conducted by Rev. John H. Elliott, the rector of the Church of the Ascen- sion, and consisted only of the beautiful and impressive form used in tae Ppisconal Church. There were no remarks. The body lay in a handsome casket, on which was a heavy silver plate, bearing the name and title of the deceased, with the date ef his birth and of his Jeath. The imdy was clad in the full uniform cf a brigadier gen- eral. About the cask=t was wrapped a Mig flag, and above it was a mammoza wreath of pink roses, vie d aster lilies. ‘The honorary pallbearers were Gen, Wm. P. Craighiil, ‘chief of engincers; Senator Frye, Senator Gorman, Senator Merrill, Senator Voorhecs, Senator Brice, Gen. Thomas A. Vincent, Gen. Absalom Baird and Col. Wilson. The funeral was entirely devoid of mili- tary features, and there was not even an escort to accompany the remains to the station. After the exercises at the house the bedy was taken directly to the Penn- sylvania station.

I wish the facts could sustain your very ¢omplimentary theory, for the sake of the women of W; ashington, but they don’t. Not by a long way. 1 was my misfortune to sit through several per- formances of both the recent opera and Bernharét weeks behind a tady’s hat, which acted as an imperctrable screen between my seat and the stage, and it was only by extraordinary and fatiguing efforts that I was at all able to occasionally get a Pol glimpse of the actors.

Gittings, who te+k his own life Wednesday afternoon, were held at his late residence on Capitol Hill this after- noon. They “were brief and simple, and while many of the Natienal Rifles, of which organization he was a member, attended, they were in citizen's dre: no atlempt at military display. The inter- ment was made at Glenwood cemetery. A special meeting of the National Rifles was heid last evening at the armory. A committee, consisting of Licuts. George W. Evans and J. O. Manson and Secretary E. P. Harrington, reported a series of resolu- tions expressing the genuine regret of the corps at the death of their associate and friend. Mr. Gittings’ portrait, which hangs in the library of the armory, and his locker were draped in mourning, and the execu- live committee was instructed to send a fioral tribute for the funeral this after- nocn. After the meeting the members went in a body to the undertaker’s es- tablishment to view the remains. ——__ : A Treat at the Morse School.

Parker; “Origin of Our Federal Union,” John L. Wilkins; “City Governments,” Beulah Byish. Dean Corsa was to have rendered a vocal solo, but Dean had a cold, so he didn’t sing, much to the regret of those who know how well he can sing. Ex-Gov. Perham of Maine chatted pleasantly to the boys and girls, and then the indoor portion of the program was concluded. The military drill took place in the school yard, with Capt. Her- bert C. Parker In command, assisted by Lieut. Walter Kern. The exercises were under. the direction of Miss King, princ!pal of the Morse building.
