White, thought this rather mangled quotation Dtted his case when te re complished, and at the end all that re mains is the handful of ashes; the un convertible solid constituents of the body. While the retort was still hot, but af ter the receptacle with the remaining ashes had been withdrawn, the casket with its immortelles was placed inside the Qery vault, and In a much shorter time was reduced to ashes in torn. There was no actual difference between the facts of the incineration and those of an interment except that in the former ca3e the work of years was done in an hour. Monday at 10 o'clock a number of gentlemen, among them the oflicers of the society and the friends of the de ceased, repaired to the crematorium, and the ashes were drawn from the retort. There were just five and a half pounds of them.

The color was almost white. Here and tbeie appeared a solid looking piece of substance, evidently the remains of a portion of the skeleton, but at a touch it crumbled to tinedu8t. The ashes were inurned and taKen in charge by the friends. The retort was still glowing, hot enough to have disposed of another body. The first fire was put in it Friday aoout noon.

That Hood's Sarsaparllla does possess cura-live power Peculiar to Itself Is conclusively iliown by tho wonderful cures it lias effected, unsurpassed In the history of medicine.

Toutaon and Wife, The funeral of Dr, J. J. Tomson and his wife, one ot the most noteworthy doub'e funerals ever held in this part of the country, was held from the First Presbyterian church Sunday aftei-noon at 3 o'clock. It was not only noteworthy in that it was iUelf a remarkable funeral, but it is probab'y no exaggeration to say that in all the history of Davenport there was never before so large a number of people at a funeral within her limits. The large double casket within which the faithful husband and wife reposed side by side was brought to the church in a wagon, it being too large to be admitted by any hearse.

Its size, also, would not allow it to be taken within the body of the church, and ij; was arranged a3 properly as possible in the vestibule. It was almost buried in flowers sent by sympathizing friends. Long before tho hour for the service to Dogin the church was Qlled with people, and surrounded by others less fortunate in gaining admittance. Tho peculiar feature of the funeral formed the strong attraction that drew thousands from their homes, but there were others in large number who were there because of the relations they bad sustained in the past with the deceased and who desired to show their respect by their presence at the last scene of earth. Prominent among the people in attendance were 15 members of the Scott County Medical society from this ci'y, Dr.

(Jatnbie, the veteran of Le Clairo, Dr. Knox of PriLceton and Dr Kemmerer of Eldridge. The service, conducted by Rev. J. B.

Little, the pastor of the church and the spiritual minister of the departed ones, was interesting and touching. The members of the T. K. quartet sang the chosen hymns, and the pallbearers were S. P.

Bryant, A. P. Doe, Prof. J. B.

Young, Warren Teele, Humphrey, Jesse Armil, J. W. Ballard and W. H. Wilson.

The arrangements were in chargeofJudgeC.il. Waterman and E. S. Ballord. At the conclusion of the service the rem iina were placed in the vehicle that had conveyed them to the church, and the procession wended its long way to Oak.lale.

FIRST CREMATION IN IOWA. Tha Hrmalnaof Ottn Kochrr laclnerated at Uia Davcoport Crroia'orluia la tha freiencaof Friaatla Tha Funeral Eier-ciaet-Aa IotarMlu3 t.vtut. Sunday afternoon witnessed the incineration of the remains ot Otto Kocher, whose death occurred by an apoplectic stroke last Wednesday night at the liermauia hotel. The work was done, of course, at the newly erected crematorium of the Northwestern Cremation society of this city. This being the first incineration in this state, as well as the first to take place la the Mississippi valley aside from those performed at the crematorium at St.

Louis, the only other city in that stretch of country possessing such an institution, it was but the natural thin that there should be an unusual degree of interest in the event. It was something after 2 o'clock when thi body was removed from the undertaking rooms of Mr. Siems, where it ha I been eared for, and started for the crematorium. Several carriages filled with the friends of the deceased followed. The drive was slow and tedious, the roads being in a sad state.

The building was reached between the hours of 3 and 4. The Davenport baud accompanied the cortege, and as the returns were removed from the hearse played a sad and solemn dirge. As it halted at the door of the chapel, which occupies the body of the building, the remains were borne up the steps and into the room, where the oflicers of the Cremation society were already assembled, together with a lew invited friends. The pall bearers were Martin Kuukel, John VVQolehert, Henry Martens, Henry Hass, Otto Overboil, and Richard Prussing. The handsome blask casket was covered with immortelles, and its it was deposited upon the catafalque at tho head of the chapel a shapely mcinerary urn was placed upon It.

It contained a floral offering, and bore the name of the deceased and the date of his death. The friends gathered about the catafalque, and surrounding them ttocd the people who had gathered about the building. The littlo chappel, which, will probably seat 130 people, contained more than that, number. All Btood, no chairs being used. The rostrum at the head of the bier was occupied by Hon Ernst Claussen, the friend and attor ney of the deceased in life, and thy ora tor at his funeral.

At the end of the address the friends of the deceased were admitted by private stairway to the incinerating room below the chapel. Refore their arrival tlie casket containing the remains had been lowered, smoothly and noiselessly, to that apartment, the catafalque being arranged somewhat after tlie manner of the vampire trap of tho theater, an I sinking slowly downward with its burden while the opening in the floor is close I above it. The crowd departed from the chapel andjhe work of was at hand. The was opened and the remains were lifted from it and placed upon anot'ier bitr immediately beside the catafalque, being deposited within the receptacle which carries them into the retort. This is much the shape of a coffin only that it is shallow and has no cover, tnd is made of iron.

An am ple spread of lute- cloth was first laid over it, the tody was laid upon it and then tin doth wa3 covered over it so that all wt concealed. This cloth was saturated with alum, dripping from the solution, and its oflice was to pre vent the heat of the rt tort from firing the clothing; as the Locly is moved for- vatd Into it and to conceal the actual process of the combustion during its process. Then, while the friends and specta tors waited in the door of the retort was unscrewed and swung open. The remains in the receptacle that held them were moved forward, a Btrong iron arm being projected toward the retort from a carriage further back in the room, aud carryin the recepta- elo mentioned by means of bands of Iron that pasied beneath it. The car riage wi moved forward, 1 he body was quickly transferred from the cool air of tho room to the intensely heated retort, and the door was closed.

It was Just 4 o'clock when this was done, and only 13 minutei from the moment when the address of Mr. Claussen wits beun.

A lare and critic! audience grieted Mile. Rhea and her company at the JturtAsi pera house last evening. The talented arlihte sustained her leading part Vk 1th her usual strength. Her French cccetit is as strong as ever, although the has beeu upon the American stage for eight years, but it detracts but little from the entertainment her audiences draw from her acting. Her parting from Mapoleon after her divorce from him and her nrraignmeut of Maile Louise alter that faithless wife had deserted the emperor his failing fortunes, were scenes of great dramatic fL'ct.

Tlie support was excellent. The character of Napoleon in the hands of William Harris is a fine reproduction of the Little Corporal aa he has come down to us in history. J. M' Francoeur shared the honors with Mr. Harris, his Talleyrand being one of tha finest pieces of acting of the evening.

Rhea does not depend for success entirely upon her histrionic powers. They are supported by costuming effects which she manages with all of a woman's taste. Poasibly her gowns last evening pleased the ladies in the audience more than did any other feature cf the entertainment.

The first dress in which she appeared was a ball dress of a rich pale blue satin, brocaded in old gold leaves, with court mantle of blue satin, lined with old gold, trimmed around with Irish point. Iho waist, a l'Empire, historically correct was very short, with high puffed sleeves and a collar a la Medicis in Irish point. In tlie great divorce scene in the sec ond act it wa3 white satin embroidered in coi f. From the shoulders hung the lmpi-rial mantle in red velvet, studded with gold bees, embroidered in two shades of gold end entirely liued with ermine. The mantle is said to be an exact tac simile of th i coronation robes still preserved In the palace of the Louvre.

On her head In wore the imperial crown and dia-de n. In the parting scene with Napoleon her dress was a plain, white crep, with loose draperies. The fourth dress was in mauve Italian silk, in clinginqf lolds, looped over a violet velvet skirt, embroidered in silver. The waist, a l'Empire, with puffed sleeves, was ornamented with silveraud violets. The fifth dress was a light-gretn Japanese silk, with a large niching at the of green and pink.

The front or tablier was in pink crepe, with an embroidered garland of flowers. Tho sixth dress was a white, flowing crepe robe, heavjly trimmed with hue. The coyfuiTus worn by the of! er ladies and by the gentlemen of the cast were almost as tlegant and numirous, and were worthy of the court of Na poleon.

So Saye Mr, leiow UUnl ou the I nclnr- laaera, The following from tho Chicago Tribune is in line with the stand taken upon fie same subject months ago by The Democrat: Chauneey M. Depew, who was laid up recently with a severe cold, when asked about it said: I caught while acting as pallbear er at the iuueral of Jackson S. nchultz Do you know I think pallbeanng is a more fatal disease than typhoid or diphtheria? You have to come out, minus your hat, from a room heated to tO degrees into a street who3H ther mometer stands at 2 decrees but vou mustn't put your hat on. It's risky auiess and the custom should be ch nged. 1 believe it Is a gotti up by the undertakers to help business, for I remember when six pallbearers used to be considered enough and now our first-class undertakers are nut sat, islied with less than 20." The comments of Mr.

Depow unou this absurd and dangerous practice ere directly to the point. Unquestionably many persona acting as pallbearers for friends have, by dointr so, ttkon the first steps toward following them into the grave themselves. There iro many other foolish practices wl.teh are pt up by the undertakers that a'soneed le forming if not abolishing. Hitherto a false notion of delicacy and sentiment has prevailed of which undertakrs have taken advantage to niinitter to their own profit. Is it not time that funeral etiquet and practices should be modernised nud reduced at least to the limits of reason? Have wo not followed the old, cloomy, barbarous fashion long euotizh? Why should there not be common sense in funerals as in other usages of society Why should the undertakers be (riven ahro-lute authority over the late departed and all his family and friends? Mr Depew has thrown out a pertinent, practical suggestion.
