As he lived and died, Garcia, the bold, the fearless, the undaunted, was given a mii! burial by a people who appreciate valor and the good traits of the soider. ‘The funeral services at the church began shorty after 10 o'ciock. ‘Tnree-quarters of an hour previous to this time a muitary es- cori, consisting of Battery K, ih United S:ates Arullery, in command of Lieut.

Preceded by Rev. Mr. McGee, the casket was taken up the center aisle and deposited just outside the chancel rail, where it was adorned by a simple wreath of laurel leaves from the Cuban delegation. The members of the Cuban commission, Senor Quesada, General Riviera and Mr. Rubens of the junta; Mr. A. A.

Ih, Master of all men, to Thy wise judg- nt we commit this morning the soul of General Garcia. God is the commander of all armies, the commander of all soldiers, of ail men. God is supremely just, and, what is sweeter yet to hear, is supremely merci- ful. To Thy justice and mercy, oh, God, we commit the soul of our departed friend: And we accompany his soul with our earn- est prayers and supplications that Thou wilt receive him as «hy child, and confer upon him the favor of Thy eternal blessing. We pray for his soul and for ourselves. Make us realize, oh, God, in this solemn moment the great purpose of our life. “The death of General Garcia seems par- ticularly sad in the circumstances attend- ing. Only a few days ago he stepped upon the shores of the United States to speak te this country words of gratitude, words of gladness. And from this country a most cordial welcome was extended him. The lite while he tarried ig this capital city of the nation the officials of the government, the officials of the army and navy, took his hand in great friendliness and learned to appreciate the noble traits of character with which he had been distinguished in “fe. General Garcia came to taste the fruits of many long struggles, and all at once life closes upon him. There was such another case onee before in the capital city. A fearful war had desolated the land, and eoeoe . + . . . . . 5 ?

Great in Thought and Purpore. “Such facts as these show, my friends, that the individual man fs great only inas- much as he is the embodiment of a great thought, a great purpose. “Such facts confirm what I said, that the individual man must look beyond this life for his reward. Principles and ideas are greater by far than the man, and great men must feel a joy in departing this to know that th principks and ideas will continue working out the great purposes of the High Ged, the destiny of nations and the betterment of humanity. “Garcia's idea was the betterment of his country, the securing of freedom in civil and political life, and so far as Garcia is known in this country, and in his own, he sought these ideals with absolute sincerity and disintercste ness. 1am not here in this sanctuary to discuss poli.ical questions, nor to review wars and human ambitions. So far as the minister of God can speak in the religious sanctuary must be of reiigion; of things that comé before the Master of men. ‘There are places and times for political dis- it here we must k of what God judges ard approves, and prominent among these things are absolute sincerity in deal- ing with a cause, and disinterestedness in serving tha’ cause. The Soldier's Record. “T recall from this chancel the battle- fields of Cuba and of Porto Rico, and see the eyes of the great God resting with com- placency upon the soldiers in the different armies. I am sure the great God is pleased with the soldiers fighting under the Cuban flag, for they loved their country ani soughi its betterment. I am sure the eyes | of God r with complacency upon the soldiers fighting under the flag of Spain, for they were doing their duty as commanded by their country; whose acts, as lo: diers, they d.d not question or d am sure the eyes of God rested with com- paiceney upon the soidiers fighting under the stars and stripes, who gave up their lives on foreign shores for no interested purpose, but simply because their country hed decided it was time to act in the prem- ises and had ordered them to the front. obeyed.

Between the Cuban, he the Americ n and the Spaniard let there be today peae and the love that have ever distinguished the children of God. What American did not rejoice when victory crowned the flags of his country? But was there not reason to rejoice when, after the battle, the American saw in the Spaniard, and the Spaniard saw in the American, a tellow man? Nothing better illustrates the civilization and humanity of this close of the century than the expressions of friend- ship which were exchanged between the rmies that were but a few moments be- fore fighting as their duty bade them. Let us be as brothers and pray that friendli- ness and peace among fellow men may last forever, Righteousness must prevail. Pray, my friends, this morning, that God will so dispose things among men that the terr of the battlefield will be no more; that righteousness will triumph through peacc, and that the reign of peace will never be interrupted. _ “I believe in a God of nations, and in the Gestiny of nations.

There is something beauti- fully symbolic in the fact. He gave up his life resting upon the bosom of the land of civil and political liberty. Let there for- ever be friendship between Cuba and Amer- ica, and let there be rivalry between the sons of the two lands only in the develop- ment of all the natural faculties and the betterment of the populations of the two countr America is the land of opp« tunities, and Cuba can no longer complain. Her pathway is open. The spirit of the 2 pervades oceans and sea, and the country under its influence enjoy: all the opportunities possible. On this oc- casion I must say to the Cubuns, map out civil and religious future.
