Cardinals and Others Join In.
Once more- the procession with the bier
now flanked by the Swiss guards moved on.
After the cardinals came the whole diplo
matic . body accredited to the Vatican
and the representatives of the Knights of
Malta. The latter were followed by the
marshal of the conclave, Prince Chigl, the
master of the holy hospice, Prince Rus
poll, and the commander of the noble
Kuards, Prince Rospigllosl, all In mag
nificent uniforms. Then came the1 prelates
of tha chamber and Knights of the Cape
and Sword In their medieval Spanish robes.
The noble and Swiss palatine guards
brought up the rear. No monarch was
ever followed to the . tomb by a more Im
posing array. '.

and deserted aisles of the chapels as the
body was borne down the nave to the
Chapel of the Sacrament, i There candles
burned brightly. In this chapelle ardente
the body was reverently stretched behind
the Iron gates . and two members of the
noble guard took up their positions on
either side of the bier.
The procession then reformed and re
turned to the Vatican, leaving the body of
Leo XIII. in the greatest church in the
world, alone, except for the faithful guard
and the still praying penitentiaries.
' Tonight the iody of the dead pope rests

While this ceremonial was being carried
out the private ceremony of depositing the
urn containing the pope's viscera in the

when the solemn procession arrived at the
door of the specful depository in the crypt
and found that no key had been provided

were Anally obliged to break down the door.

Mr. Hedges, while making no general de-
nlal of the charges, contended that they
did not provide sufficient justification for
his removal.
Ervln H. Thorpe, postofflce lnspector-ln-
charge at New York, who has been assign
ing in the administration of the free de
livery service since the Inception of the
Investigation, has been designated acting
superintendent of free delivery In place of
Mr. Hedges.
The following is the statement ot the
case by Mr. Brlstow:
Charles Hedire vra fnrinv removed from
the office of superintendent of free delivery
for falsifying his diary and loaning his
traveling commission; He has represented
himself as being at various places on public
uumness wnen in ract ne was not in tnose
places on the dates mentioned, but else
where, in Some Instances hundreds of miles
distant. On October 25, 1900, he states under
oath, In his dinry, thnt he was at Jorilin,
Mo., on "extension of free delivery service,"
when In fact he was at Mansfield, O., at
tending the funeral of former Secretory
John Sherman. On December 7. 199, he
reports himself at San Antonio, Tex., "In
vestigating carriers service," while In fact
he was In Mexico examining property.
In October, 1S09, A. W. Machen, superin
tendent of the free delivery, was sick with
typhoid fever and Hedges was at the de
partment acting as superintendent. In bis
diary he states, under oath, that he wns

There are manv other similar Instances.
The facts were submitted to the postmas

Hedges' removal for the reasons above set
forth.
Mr. Brlstow summoned Mr. Hedges
shortly before the close of office hours this
afternoon and notified him of his dismissal.
Mr. Hedges reiterated his contention that I
his dismissal was not warranted. I
Mr. Hedges was appointed to the postal The demurrer was overruled and Shep

Owing to thn dry fall, tbe long winter snd
late spring the markets east were early
crowded with shipments from thn west and
there was a weakening In prices. At this
dHte, with feed-lot stock being held close
for finish, there Is a firming up of prices
and a profitable trade la therefore to be

HAY FEVER FOR 27 YEARS
Well Known Xew Knnland Woman
(red by Hyomel Cnr Wns
lasting.
The thousands of discouraged people who
dread Bummer's approach because th-.'y
think that hay fever cannot be avoided,
will read with interest and gratitude the
following statement from Helen F. Wil
liams of Mansfield, Mass.
Tor 27 years, from the month of August
until heavy frost. I have bean afflicted
with hay fever, growing worse and worse
each year, and of late yeara I was unable
to attend to my work during that period."
"Last lunmer I fortunately gave Hyo
mei a trial and am happy to say that It
entirely cured me and I have had no re
turn of the affliction alnce."
This letter Is one of many that have
come to the.proprletors of Hyomel, and the
results following this treatment, have been
to wonderful that It Is proposed at the an
nual convention of hay fever sufferers to
recommend Hyomel to all who are sus
ceptible to this disease.
Hyomel Is a treatment for liny fever
that combines the latest dlsooverlrs of
science and the best of common sense.
Knowing that a change of climate was the
only way In which relief tould be obtained,
the evolution of Hyomel naturally resulted
By breathing Its germ killing and heating
balsams, any one can have, at any'momoni
of the day, either In their home, the office
or the factory, a climate like that of th.
White Mountaina or other health resort.,
where hay fever is unknown.
Sherman & McConnell agree to refuivl
the money to any hay fever sufferer' who
usea Hyomel if It does not give satisfaction.
IPsoriasi

ease are daily suffering the most
excruciating mental anguish, be

remedy, and I now devoutly tnank God
that . I did. For tbe first lime in twenty
years I am. free front the-awful, ' sealing
blotches of this terrible disease. Onoe
more I am free from the bondage of these
torments of hell, t.nd can again make a
presentable appearance before my fellow
men. 1 earncs'ly beg every ruBerer trom
a disease of the k'n to .'mmndiately begin
treatment with the D. D. D. Remedy. Use
it persevere with it stick 10 lt saa you
will find that it will cute you. Specialists
said I had the worst case ever recorded. I
know that what cured me will cure anyone. "

edy our highest endorsement. The
