With bowed head and solemn countenance all England watched today tlio taking of the body of Its deceased sovereign to its last renting place at Windsor. Edward VII. reals now near his mother , Queen Victoria , and his father who died two- ecorc years ago. Today's ceremonious , mournful pageant , that marked the conveyance of the royal remains , was unsurpassed In recent history , rivaling and In some respects surpassing that which saw the laying uway nine years ngo of the body of the great queen. From Westminster hnll , where the body of the sovereign had lain In state three days , to 1'addlngton station and thrnco through the pleasant Middlesex country to Windsor , the route of the funeral procession passed through rows of somberly clad Englishmen , at testing by their solemn demeanor the genuine sorrow they felt for the final passing of their king. It Is a day of olllelal mourning , to be sure , formally ordered by the dignitaries of the .realm , but It Is also a day of genuine , heartfelt sorrow among the populace. In that respect It resembles more the February day of nine years ago when the last scene In the long drama of the KINO FKKULItlLK.

As Victoria was mourned , so is her son. The twenty miles from Lon don to Windsor seemed to give forth sin almost audible sigh as the train conveying Edward's body moved slowly - ly to its destination. Services Throughout the Kingdom.

The sight of the widowed queen's carriage , moving slowly In the procession , aroused the keenest sym pathies of the loyal , silent crowd , and the silence was broken many times by the sobbing of the more emotional women members of the throng. The heart of England went out to Alexan dra today , and It Is reported that she has expressed her sense of the grati tude for the many slgim of deep sym pathy which she has received. Great Military Ceremony. The funeral was an Imposing mili tary ceremony , carried out with the strictest regard for all the minute de tails of military rule and tradition. The earl marshal of England , his grace the Duke of Norfolk , was theoretical ly In charge , in accordance with the prerogative that invests him with com mand over all occasions of solemnity or splendor affecting the royal house , but the actual arrangements were put In the hands of the military authori ties , with the duke's approval and ad vice. Troops lined the route of the procession , paying due honors to the body of the late commander In chief of the forces as It passed.

A llgure that attracted much attention was Prince Fushiml. representative of the mikado , King Edward's ally. Probably never before In the history of Europe certainly not since the funeral of Queen Victoria- have so many distinguished men , titled mid untitled , been gathered together In one place. Many of them attended Queen Victoria's funeral. The monarchs who attended the fu neral rode on horseback behind the gun carriage which bore the remains nf King Edward through the streets of London They rode for the most part with bowed heads , giving little erne no notice to the attention of the great throngs gathered to see them pass. Even their horses , pacing slowly and solemnly behind the casket , wore the Insignia of mourning and seemed to | feel that they were taking part In a , polemn. mournful ceremony. The route I of the funeral procession was crowded with Londoners and visitors from the prninces , many of whom had stooa for hours waiting for the procession. Shrewd proprietors of windows and places of vantage on the route had not permitted their public grief to inter fere with their private gain , and seats from which the procession could be viewed commanded good prices. For some of them as much as HO guineas ' had been paid. It was said. Following the kings and princes on horseback came their female relatives in closed carriages.

Throughout the mourning draperies one note of compliance with the wishes of the dead king was manifest. He de tested deep black mourning of the usual sort , and in accordance with his wishes It was relieved today with a note of violet. Last Services at Windsor. Uefore the taking of the body from Westminster hull for removal to Wind- bor services were held In the hull , at tended by the royalties and high dig nitaries of the realm. The funeral services in St. George's chapel , the tlnnl resting place of the remains be fore their Interment , were longer. The chapel Is too small to accommodate all who attended the body from London to Westminster , and many had to re main outside. The carved stalls of the ancient and magnificent sanctuary had been removed to give place to long timber seats. The arrival of the funeral train at Windsor was announced by the tiring of minute guns. The roadway from the railroad station to St. George's chapel was lined with soldiers , who presented arms as the body of the king passed on its gun carriage. With solemn dirges the procession moved up the road , accompanied and followed by the olllcials whose hereditary and ucrsnnal right It is to attend at the rery last honors to be paid to a de ceased Hrltlsh sovereign. There were the kings at arms , the heralds and the pursuivants , the lords In waiting , the lord chamberlain and the lord steward and a host of others. The last touch of medlaevallsmcame when Sir Alfred Scott Scott-Gatty , as Garter king of arms and therefore chief heraldic olllcer of Great Uritnln , under the carl marshal , announced in solemn , ringing tones that the last earthly scene dealing with "his most excellent majesty Edward VII. , by the grace ol God of the United Kingdom of Greal Hrltaln and Ireland and of the IJrltlsli dominions beyond the seas king , de fender of the faith , emperor of India , ' was closed.

Profane as well as legal paths have been the subject of many parllamen tary measures in England.

The oillclals of this de partmcnt , of whom one was appointee In every parish , were allowed 2s. id ! in the pound on the money thus col leeted , and the balance was paid ovei to the bishop for the benefit of tin deserving poor. These penalties eeasec to be enforced after the restoration but were revived by a statute of Wil Ham mid Mary and still further In creased under George II. Louden Scraps. The measure of a man's sin Is thi dllYerptiri' m > t\veon what tie Is am wlint no mlshi -.Ionian Discipline of Railroad. A few weeks ago a heavy frelgln train on a Colifornia railroad ran Intc a passing switch with such greai speed and tremendous momentun that the cars were hurled forvvan against the engine , dashing them intt kindling wood , killing the fireman am conductor , who was riding In the cab and injuring three other trainmen. As the engineer was dragging hlmsel from the scalding steam beneath th < wreck he came upon the head brake man lying in the wreckage with i mangled leg. "The limited , " they both shouted , al most in the same breath , as the : caught sight of each other. The rea lizatlon of a second wreck unless tin limited carrying hundreds of pnssen gers was flagged was the first though of those two Injured men. The sensi of duty which was the keynote In the ! success as railroad men was para mount at this moment when both wen suffering great physical agony. Tin engineer' ' was so badly scalded by tin steam from the burstert boiler thn he was able to crawl only a shor distance. The hrakeman In some wa ; pulled himself from under the car o timber , and , enduring terrible agony dragged himself down the track he yond the head of the wreck Just ii time to flag the limited. In fact , tin limited stopped BO near the wreckngi that to have gone faither would havi meant a collision. The braekmnn , with ono of his fee . useless so that ho could not linn walked In any event , was exhaustei when ho reached a point from whlcl his signal could ho seen and wavei a red Hag as ho was lying on his side Ho was then so weak from loss o blood that it was only his detcrmlnii tlon that kept him from giving up. Duty Their First Thought. This brakeman and engineer POE sessed a sense of duty developed to i remarkable clegrce , because their dally training In handling trains had made duty's discipline the greatest thing In their lives. Here Is another Incident that proves the same fact. On a railroad In Colorado rado a short time ago a freight train dashed down a mountain side at a rate of seventy-live miles an hour , was doi ailed , three of the train crow were killed outright , and the lemalnlng two were stunned and terribly Injured. The first thought of the two survivors after they recovered sulllclently to rea- 111/e what had happened was that the : east bound passenger train following the freight should be Magged. So stag gering as ho walked , one of the men climbed o\er the nteep grade to Hag the passenger train and avert more deaths , while his companion went In the other direction to summon aid. The testimony of both these survi vors of the wreck agrees as to one i point. The Hrst thing they thought of , ' on coming to consciousness , was the danger to the oncoming passenger train. People who know little of the life of a railroad man can only marvel at the sense of duty in the case of these ralnmen. The strength and the exact- ng discipline of this highly developed sense are the result of a number of luallfications which railroad men must mssess. In the first place , this sense of duty Is deeply impressed on the nind of a trainman because he has earned to obey rules and regulations religiously. The conscientious cdni- illance by trainmen with instructions .tnd dliections given by railroad of- llclals has brought about the wonder ful progress In modern railroading. Knles and regulations are formu lated for the systematic handling of nff a Irs , to the end that life and pro- peity may be protected and that the maximum benellts may accrue to all concerned as a result of the efforts expended. It is thought by many in minor positions that these rules and regulations are given arbitrarily by those In authority , and are simply de vised for the Inconvenience of those who arc expected to obey them ; and , again , that discipline in many cases is applied to satisfy some personal grievance the superior is accused of Harboring against men under him. Need of Strict Rules. This is far fiom true , and , as a mat ter of fact , It Is not the man in minor position who has the most regulations to follow and the most rules to ob serve , but that these increase In pn > liortlon to resposnsibility of position , The olllcials of a railroad must acquire - quire the same sense of duty as they pass up through the ranks In order that they may properly govern an ar my of railroad men. Railroad men are taught in the daily school of experience that it is much easier to obey even the simplest rules and Instructions than to disregard them. They have learned that the noncompliance with rules of instruc- tlon will Invariably result in oithei the sacrilice of life or property. There is no such thing as partial neglect In railroading. A trainman either mum obey orders strictly or be guilty ol overlooking them entirely. Modern railroading Is marked in particular foi the absolute regard for Instructions in the book of rules. The safe and successful operation ol railroads depends entirely upon the enforcement of the rules. In this day of railroading ofllcinls can not affon : to consider any violation of rules as petty violations. Nothing makes r deeper impression upon a railroad mar than the strict enforcement of rules In minor details. This makes all tin classes of employes careful and verj thoughtful regarding rules and regula tlons , and this feeling of regard foi authority will rapidly permeate th < entire army of railroad men. New System a Triumph. Another important factor which has been instrumental to a great degree ii developing this remarkable sense o duty is the operation of the "Browi Merit System , " which represents th ( triumph of modern railroad operatloi over the old method of laying a mar off for disobedience of rules and mak ing his family suffer. According t ( the present plan a man receives sc many merit or demerit marks , accord Ing to his attention or inattention t ( rules. The operation of this system h an incentive to railroad men to dc more than merely observe rules am follow out Instructions. If a mai simply goes along doing his worl without mistakes he does not receive any extra merit marks , but if he hai received demerits in the past he has a chance to clear up his record , ai five demerits are taken from the blacl side of his envelope if he does no violate any rules during a month's time. However , the value of the "Drovvi system" does not come from th < chance It gives a man to observe tin rules and clear up his record , but fron the many opportunities of performlni unusually meritorious service. Fo Instance , merit marks are placed t < the credit of employes for such actlom as reporting a broken flange , render Ing assistance In clearing a track o a rock slide , discovering and extln gnishing fires In cattle guards , and in fact , any kind of assistance In ease : of emergency which Is not mentlonei in the hook of rules , but service whlcl Is of immensely inoro value ; to tin company. This system has made rail road employes inoro ambitious fo good records and has naturally en ( lowed them with this most valuabli qualification a sense of duty. Wayne Normal Notes.

That's What Governor Shallenberger Says About It. Hastings. Neb. . May 21. Governor Shallenberger prescribed a new pre ventive of financial panics. In an address before Group Four of the bankers , ho diagnosed the bank situ ation of the state and found the heart action too strong. The system had been growing too fast and was nearIng - Ing the danger line. The proscrip tion was simple merely putting n limit on the number of banks that may operate In the state. The governor spoke at the banquet which came as the closing event of the group convention and his address was In marked contrast with his speech on a similar occasion a year ago , when he pleaded with all the earnestness and emphasis at his com mand against the effort to "nullify" the deposit guaranty law. Ills subject was "Our State , " and it gave him wide latitude to discuss the great ness of Nebraska and at the same time to speak on questions of person al Interest to the bankers. Ho de plored the suspension of the guaran ty act by decision of the federal court and Insisted that something must be done to overcome the legal obstacles in the way of Insuring deposits. "Just how this must bo done 1 do not know , " ho said , "whether by law , the arrangement of some system of insurance among yourselves or by per fecting a plan of bank Inspection. " The last named method bank In spection was also n now feature in the governor's treatment of the situa tion , for in his address here a year ago , deposit guaranty was hold up as the only means of accomplishing re sults desired. The governor's recommendation to limit the number of banks In the state was prompted by the address of J , W. Welpton of Ogallaln , president of the Nebraska Hankers' association , who declared In an address , "Our State Association , " that there are some 000 banks In Nebraska and only about 1,200 in Iowa. "In the ratio of population , If we have the right number of banks In Nebraska , Iowa ought to have 3,000 banks , " said the governor. "I understand that the number of banks is limited in two or three states and I believe we ought to have a re striction of the snino kind in Nebras ka. It may be said that this can not be legally done , but I believe It can. Probably the persons npvv engaged in the banking business would ob ject to reducing the number of banks , but I don't suppose they would object to n law prohibiting the organization of additional banks.

The present route of travel on the North western Is southwest to Norfolk , Neb. , from Sioux City , then northwest to Niobrara. and on west through HoncsU'ol. The requested cutoff would establish almost a straight stretch of track from Slonx City west to Niobrara , hairing a small V line from Sioux City southwest to the Crofton branch. Some of the peti tioners are nuking that the ctitoll ho built from Wynot , Neb. , west to Nlo- brara , which route * would ho yet a few miles shorter than that by way of Crofton , but It Is thought that If the line Is established at all It will bo through Crofton and not Wynot The railroad contends that , whllo the cutoff would considerably shorten the run with goods destined for the points in the vicinity of Niobrara , Ilonesteel and the west. It will not add materially to the business inter ests of Sioux City. The > men who c asking for the road aie saying that a shorter route would bring a hotter trade to the city.
