Prince of Wales a Pall Bearer— Thousands Sing His Fayorite Hymn, “Kock of Ages,” Burial at Westminster, Londop, May iy pathos and majesty, yet withal grief, are the terms which best characterize the obsequies of Gladstone which took place Saturday, The simple ceremon’es were all the more impres- sive because they were devoid of im- posing pomp and all the more appro- priate to the unostentatious grandeur of the statesman whose memory they honored. In the center of Westminister hall, the plain oak coffin lay upon a se- verely plain dias, Not aflower or a bit of draping softened its rigid out- lines. Huge wax candles flickered ateach corner and a brass cross stood at the head, A folded pall lay at the foot of the coffin, Shortly after 10 o'clock the pro- cession began to form. ‘There was no insignia of woe, but simply a long file of Great Britain's foremost men clad in the ordinary mourning cos- tume, First came the speaker of the house of commons inrobe and wig. He was preceded by a mace bearer and followed by some 400 members of parliament. Then came a group of privy councillors and after these the lord chancillor in flowing robes, pre- PURE DRINKING WATER, The most important question to- day, from a hygienic standpoint, is that of pure drinking water, With) the rapid advance of scientific ir- vestigation, it has been clearly deim- onstrated that all zymotic diseases originate from the drinking of impure water, The most dreaded pestilences of our southern climate—diphtheria and typhoid malaria—are traced di-| rectly to this one source. ‘The prev- alent summer malady of dysentery is very largely the result of drivking| impure water, Water fs well known as the breeding ground of an im: | mense variety of germ life. Pure water is very rare, All of the so- called spring waters contain a great- er or less per c¢nt of impurities. The water supplies of our cities and towns are rarely of a high stand- ard of purity, Discoloration reveals the constant presence of animal or| vegetable matter in solution. Even where water is perfectly white, im- purities may still exist, In country towns and villages using the water of erns and wells the danger is uns, questioned, and the newspapers} almost daily chronicle some new out break of infectious disease origivat-| ing in drinking impure water. Every year the knowledge of these dangers | is becoming more generally diffused, | and means of overcoming them sought. Filtration, to be of any value, must be thorough.

Next were membcrs of the late liberal ministry and representatives of royalty. Immediately in front of the coftin stood the Duke of Connaught, the Duke of Cambridge and the Earl of Pembroke, representing the queen, Here and there were heralds with quaint feudal titles such as ‘Red Dragon,"’ ‘‘Blue Mantle,” ete., but their short white wand alone distia- guished them from the others. On either side of the coflia were ranged the pall bearers, the Prince of Wales, the Duke of York, the Marquis of Salisbery, the Earl of Roseberry, Arthur J, Balfour, Sir William Harcourt, the Duke of Rut- land, the Earl of Kimberly, Lord Randel aod Mr. Amistead, Bebiod the coffin were the Glad- stone family, the sons, and the young grandson, private secretaries, physicians and servants. There were no ladies. Last of all came a pa- thetic group of the old villagers of Hawarden. When all had taken their places the Duke of Norfolk, Earl Marshal of England, conducted the bishop of London to the coflin, where he of- fered a brief prayer. The prayer concluded, there was a brief moment of silence and then the coffin was raised upon the shoulders of the pall- bearers and the procession moved slowly from the hall to the abbey, As the coflia emerged from the hall every bat was doffed and sileace fell upon the bareheaded gathering. For nearly an hour the great organ supplemented by a large orchestra filled the grand old cloister with Beethoven's magnificent funeral music, A great surpliced choir comprising the wonderful boys’ voices from St. Paul’s and St. Mar- garet’s as well as those of Westmin- ster, entered singing, ‘I am the res- urrection and the life,’’ The coffin was placed upon a high eatafalque in the center of the charch. Soon after 11 o'clock the church was hushed to silence that was almost op- pressive, the cho'r began to sing, ‘Lord Thou Hast Been Our Refuge,’ and never was cathedral music more sweetly or more impressively sung. Then vame the true solemnity an memorable hour. It was a tribute which all could pay. Lords and commoners, judges, clergy and a!! that assembly of the great men of England sang the favorite hymn of the man they mourned, They sang ‘*Rock of Ages’ as perhaps it never was sung before It spread beyond the walls of the grand old abbey until the waiting thousands outside heard it, caught it up and sent the sweet refrain re-echo- ing through the neighboring streets.
