LONDON, ,lan. 20. In accordance with his expressed wish, the Into Lord Stratcona's funeral today was the simplest possible. Ilerore the public reading ot the ritual nt Westminster Abbey, the ltev. Archlbnld Fleming conducted serv ices nt the St rath co n a homo In tho presence only of near relatives ot tho deceased. Tho attendance at the abbey was a remarkable ono. Those present Included representative of tho royal ty, Premier Asqtttth, .roost ot tho cabinet members, Ambassador ot America, alter Page, practically the entire diplomatic corps nmt other notables of many different sorts. I.ntcr thousands lined tho streets, through which tho funeral procession passed from the abbey to Hlghgate I churchyard. Tho hearso was an open one, and only twenty carriages fol I lowed It. The Journey from West minster Abbey to Hlghgnte Is a long one. The Abbey services began nt 11:30, and It was 2 p. in. before tha cemetery was reached. Throughout the ontlro distance throngs of bare headed spectators looked on. The pnllbcnrcrs Included the Duke of Argyll, Iord Lnnsdowne, Lord Aberdeen, Lord Litchfield, ColonIM Secretary Louis Harcourt, Sir W. M. Osier and the lord mayor ot London. Tho government offices and many private places of business were closed and the London headquarters ot the Canadian government were draped In black. All flags wero nt halt mast. tf CUT IE FOOT BRIDGE Choice of Species The um to which wo mo to put the tree, and the surrounding ill which it will bo placed, will affect our choice rtf the j.peele. Nursery men tiiul landscape gimleners make u di-tinctiim between "ornninentaU" mnl shade trees, while street tret) eoinmitsioiuirs rcooguuo that l hIuuIo tree mc not adapted to street ue. tl Would fur exceed tho limit of thN dNouioii to more than brieflv mention some of the ndvuii- tapes nnd dimlnvtnnges of n fow of our nutive species for thco uo. All conifers such as the pines it ml firs mu-t he considered ns ornn mental vather thuii shade trees, nnd none nre ndnptcd for street planting. The nyre be-t H-eil grouped nt the entrance of n drive or to relieve the, monotony of n broad stretch of lawn' on n country o-lnte. The western vellow pine i seen often in .Medfonl where It bus survived the groivjh of the city nround it. When young it is not un ungraceful tree though when it attains maturity it looses its ehnnn. It is not to be recommended for planting for ornnmeutul pur mes. The Douglas fir can be sue- ecssfwllv crown but it is like tho yellow pine, n forest or timber tree rather than mi ommucntnl. In youth it can be iwd effectively on n coun try e-tate lint so large a tree re quires plenty of room to show to ml vnutnge. Another common conifer On our lawns is the incense cedar. It is effectively ued on large lawns. rnforlunntely it is susceptible to a utt fungus the spores of which aie eniried n ilistnuee of live miles on the wind, mnl which is destructive to pears, especially tho Winter N'el is. For this reason the incense eednr should never be planted in the vnlley or within five miles of mi orehiud. There are three luitive oaks which can successfully be used for plant ing. The native oak is u slow grow ing tree. It is uluiot inuiriiihly rotted badly before it lciichxs a mod erate sue, and is very susceptible to the injury of mistletoe which will eventunlly eiipplo. weaken and even kill it. A much better tree is the Cuhforniti black oak which also oc cur abuudaiitlv in tho foothill. This tree is less susceptible to mistletoe, attains n huge size, is not so liable to rot, and has n much more grace ful form. The ennyon live oak i very rarely a host to the mistletoe ami i n graceful tree. The green leave remain on the tree the year long mnl for u large lawn it would he a very pleading tree. All of the oak, however, have n tap loot which is ver liable to be torn when dig ging forest trees. This retard their growth and litis given rise to the prejudice that oak-, are necessarily slow of growth. N'urserv stock is preferable if obtainable. Or the tires i-iiii be grown from aconis in a homo nursery ami after uultiwitiou for n year or more transplanted lt their tinal location. m PASSENGER II ARE KILLEO .IACKSON, .Mich., .Ian. i!0.-Four corpses wero removed today from the wieck of tho Michigan Central passenger and freight trains which collided here last night.

F, STAR THEATRE PLENTY OF ITER 1 FOR PLACER MINING (Gold Hill New,.) With winter mins still prevailing nnd heavy snnvs in the hills, the tributary creeks and streams of the Itoguc river in this district are sjvol leu to u point that brings joy to the heart of tho placer miner. Since the last of December the various mines of Sardine, Galls, Foots creek nnd numerous other smaller streams have been continuously worked. The Hluek Channel, one of the largest of local placer projierties, situated on Foots creek, is working a double shift, nnd Superintendent Hen Harrison coufi den'ly anticipates one of thu largest clean-ups of recent years. While sufficient rain has fallen to kcei) the creeks tit u working mark, prospect ors along the river bars say that the Itoguu must rise still higher to de posit new gold bearing gravel in Oimntities to pay for tho working. Thq usual winter influx of aged ar i ouauts, prospectors of the good old golden days of placer mining, is hcatlered along the river, with pick and pan striving for n grub stake nnd still looking forward to tho ''big strike." From Hogue Itiver Argus.) Just about the lowest, most con temptible whelp who disfigures tho face of the earth is the iersou who will endanger the lives of n dozen innocent children in onler that thoy might spit their spite out on some one else. Such a pup got loose on Evans creek Tuesday night nnd sawed three cnble.s off on the foot bridge that rosses the creek from the Green to the Mugerle places. The next morn ing six children crossed it and came to town to school. loiter two more came to the bridge, snw that some thing was wrong with the bridge, but innocence thought it nil right and came across, but storied and told Dan JDigerlc, who nt once investigat ed the damage. On examination it was found that two cables on the top and one on the bottom had been cut off with a line snw, nil on the up-stream side, nnd it appears as though they were scar ed away before doing enough dam age to let the bridge fall. The bridge is made of Pnge fence wire stayed up with four (pmrter inch cables. Two of the.-o cables ami one of the mnin stnys of the fence wire were tho ones cut. What an animal of that nature can get out of risking the lives of children that way is more than we can understand.
