DCENES AT JEWISH FUNERAL. . Hebrews Excited Over the Burial of a Venerated Rabbi. Most extraordinary 7 sccnea took place in Tunis yeniciWy on tho occa sion of the burial of Mouchl Rorrcbl, the late Grand Rnbbl of the Jews of the protectorate, snys a Paris dispatch to tho London Telegraph. Hebrew traditions arc kept to tho letter of Hie law In Tunis, especially as regards funerals. About 5,000 Jews of nil classes 'thronged round tho funeral car, endeavoring to toiifkthe body of tho dead dignitary of the syna gogue. The crush was cnormouB,-ncl ns the body had several times fallen out of Its place the police took chargo of tho funeral, and In strong force es corted the ear to tho cemetery. Here further' trouble arose, as,a lot of peo ple wantecl to throw enrth Into tho plllow-caso which was to bo placed under the head of t,he grand rnbbl in his tomb. The police succeeded, with great dlllleulty, in preserving order, nnd with the help of fifteen voluntary grave-diggers, the body, In Kb whlto shroud, was taken from the tar nnd consigned to tho earth, lleforo It won carried down there was a tlnnl tw sit of people, who wanted to kiss tho s-iioud. Many also struggled to duty-end Into the grave for tho purpose of saluting the totpse for the last time, but they weio driven back by sheer force. During tho bin lal, which was quickly effected, owing to the cu-wels, women in tho cemoteiy pierced tho nlr with their heart-rending walls. Tho explanation of these extraordi nary scenes is thnt tho Jews of Tunis consldcicd that their grand rabbi bad cHed a saint, or, as tho phrase Ih among Catholics, In tho odor of. sanc tity, and thnt whoevei helped to carry tho body, kissed It, or even toudiecl the shroud of flue linen enveloping it, received pardon for sins committed and ptnmtses of heaven.
