A SURPASSING
POPULAR TRIBUTE.
The Body of Sir Oliver Mowat
Reverently Borne to the Tomb.
LOVED IN LIFE,
HONORED iN DEATH.
Statesmen. Senators, 3Iembers of Perlia -
wont. Representatives of the Roach,
the Bur, the Church. and Thous-
*nds of the Citizens Follow Cask-
et to the Grave—Principal
Cnvon's Api Y •elation.
Toronto, April 23.—The funeral of
the late Sir Oliver Mowat yesterday
afternoon was a surpassing popular
tribute of reverence and sympathy.
The little statesman who for nearly
half a century had faced the storms
of political life was laid at rest.
The voice that had so often been
raised in the promotion of popular
liberty 'and in the defence of the
rights of minorities was quiet in
death. In the lull all differences
were forgotten, and political friends
and opponents united to honor the
qualities of the plan. The tribute
carne from the highest and from the
lowest, from tho shores of the At-
lantic and from the prairies and
mountains of the west, from the city
which gave hien birth, from the cap-
ital which was his home for so long,
from the counties who proudly nam-
ed him their representative, from the
Held of Federal politics, which claim-
ed his services in time of political
revolution. The nation -builders of
the past, like Senator Scott, a fath-
er of Confederation; the statesmen
who aided him in uprearing a liber-
al constitution for his native Pro-
vince; tho statesmen who to -day are
opening up the northern wilderness
whose possession he so stubbornly
contested; the Ministers of the Do-
minion who shared with him for a
time the wider outlook upon em-
pire politics; the merchant, the
manufacturer anti the farmer, who
aro reaping the reward of his fru-
gal and capable administration—all
these were there.
THE FUNERAL ORATION.
Rey. Dr. Cavan Alludes to Sir Oliver's
Noble Life.
Shortly after two o'clock the fu-
neral service was begun at. Govern-
ment House. conducted by Rev.
Principal Caven, of Knox College;
Rev. 1)r. Maclaren, ICpox College;
Rev. Armstrong Black, St. Andrew's
church: Rev. Alexander Gaudier, St.
Janes' square Presbyterian church.
The order of the service was:—
Prayer and call to worship, by
Rev. Mr. Gandier,
Scripture reading, by Rev. Dr.
Armstrong Black.
Address, by Rey. Principal Cavan.
I':nlQtry of Principal Cavcn.
Principal Caveu's was an eloquent
tribute, He said:
"We ere here to pay the last trIlbute
of respect to one who deserved well of
his country, and who, after a long and
eminently useful public life, has passed
to his rest, honored and revered by
all. The public life o2 Sir Oliver Mowat
extended over 46 years, all of which
were filled with valuable service to his
native Province and to Canada.
"This is not the occasion for giving
any detailed account of the public ser-
vices of him whose death we lament,
or for attempting any critical estimate
of the intellectual and moral qualities
which enabled him to do so much and
do it so well. Sir Oliver Mowat was so
long before the country, had so pro-
minent a part in its public life, and
was withal so transparent in charac-
ter, that very few men were known as
he was.
"That he possessed very exceptional
powers of mind soon became obvious
to all: The amount and quality of the
work done by him In every position
which he filled abundantly attest both
his industry and his great abilities.
The large body of well considered
legislation placed on the statute books
of Ontario during the 24 years of his
Premiership — whatever share others
had in it — is an enduring monument
to him. The skill and wisdom of his
administration of affairs, and his suc-
cess in determining Dominion and pro-
vincial prerogative are matters of his-
tory. He ever allowed penetration of
mind, soundness of judgment, extreme
care—when dealing with any complex
question or situation—to keep all the
elements of the case fully In view. In
forming his decision, and thus to avoid
whatever was rash or unjust. His pub-
lic speaking reflected very truly the
qualities of his mind. It was always
direct; It put aside whatever was ir-
relevant to the matter in hand, and it
presented with completeness the argu-
ments for his own conclusion, or the
reason for the procedure which he
proposed to take.
lila Splendid ilnalitles,
"Dut we are thinking to -day rather
of the admirable moral qualities of
him who now rests from earthly labor.
To say all in one word. Sir Oliver
Mowat was a good man. He was truth-
ful, upright, fair-minded, just: he was
generous and kind, and he sought the
good of all, as he had opportunity.
"The first question which he asked
regarding any course of action which
might be proposed to him, or which
there might appear reasons for tatting,
was, 'Is it right?' Conscience must be
consulted first of all, and he would re-
solutely obey its command. Ile knew
well that, without adequate support
from public opinion, a government or
legislature could not do anything
which It might wlste to do, but he
would not. at the dictation of public
opinion, do anything he believed to be
wrong. Moet circumspect and Wary in
determining his line of salon, he was
perteetly flan In adhering to it, once
the course of duty was decided, This
strength of Durpose, too, Was united
with Charity and courtesy towards
those who differed front him.
Utah Motive, Alwayse
"The proof that Sir Oliver Mowat
Was actuated by high mottVes and was
an upright and good Man • 15 supplied
not by this or that particular act, but
by the whole course of his life, That
life is now completed, the record of it
is crowded with Important act]on, and
as we survey It In its entirety the evie*
dellen ie perfect that Sir 011yeat statist
was an eminently able, wise and good
Man. Surely Canada hats had a treas-
ure In the possession of this rare seri
'ant, and the young men of Canada --
Young men of talent, education and
opportunity — have an example which
they will do well to imitate.
"A geed man in the truest sense is
one why lives In the fear of God and.
In the faith of the Redeemer, The
geed fruit Is the produce of a good
tree. Sir Oliver Mkrwat was quite in-
capable of parading his religion or of
Petting forth claims to ,public support
on the ground of it, but he never con-
cealed the fact that he believed the
Gospel and placed his hone in God. He
was a humble and consistent follower
of Christ, to whom alone he looked for
salvation, The integrity, the purity,
the beneficence which we admire In
his course were more than ethic vir-
tues; they came out of the depths of
his character, and were Christian
graces. His life wee clear and beau-
tiful. for it wns hole This is by far
the most Important thing which I can
say regarding' him whom we all trust-
ed and admired, and whom all who
knew his kindness and gentleness sin-
cerely r"vnrl.
"Whither ITnm 11'e Gane?"
"Sir Oliver Mowat hos passed be-
yond the sphere of our vision. but
those who mourn his removal do not
need anxiously to enquire whither has
he gone, for the Master whom he serv-
ed and loved has said, 'Where I am,
there shall also My servant be, In My
Father's house are many mansions: if
it were not so, I would have told you.
I go .to prepare a place for you, And
if I go to prepare a place for you. T
will come again, and receive you unto
Myself, that where I am there may ye
be also.' Years of toil or sickness may
wear out the frail body, and we ley it
In the dust, but the spirit, redeemed
and sanctified. ascends to its true home.
to gather strength and beauty for the
resurrection of the body.
"We unite in thankegivin • to God for
this lire of lengthened and rare service
and in praying 'the Father of Mercies'
and the 'God of all comfort' that He
will sustain and comfort those who seri
row for a beloved parent. They will he
cheered by the thought that he is 'with
Christ, which is far better,' "
The concluding prayer was by Rev.
Dr. Maclaren of Knox College.
Last Look at His race.
Just before the lid was placed on
the coffin and after the relatives had
taken a final. look at Sir Oliver's
features, a touching incident occur-
red. A feeble old gentleman, with
long, silvery hair and a face bearing
the imprint of his 94 years, pushed
past the stalwart guards at the
door of tho mortuary chamber and
;aired the side of the bier, where
he stood with bowed head for some
reconds. He was ex -Postmaster Les-
lie, who was superannuated by Sir
John Macdonald nearly twenty years
ago.

Charles bine Found Guilty of This Crime
in the Preemgn Case,
St, Thomas, April 23.—The Jury in
the :Freeman murder case, after be-
ing out three hours last evening re-
turned a verdict of "guilty of man-
slaughter" against Charles King,
with a rcconInw,:dation of mercy.
King heard the verdict unmoved. the
only Sign of emotion being a slight
coloring of the face. He was then
taken back to jail. Sentence will be
passed to -day.
The prisoner was placed on trial in
the horning, and after a large num-
ber of jurymen had been challenged
the case was proceeded with.
No Confession Admitted.
Justice Street ruled out alt evi-
dence relating to what King said af-
ter the murder had been committed.
The reason for this ruling was that
(Frown Attorney Donahue, who had
charge of the case, had asked D. B.
Freeman to question King as to his
connection with the tragedy. Free-
man swore that he told King to
make a clean breast of the affair
and the law would be easier op him.
This the judge held was an induce-
ment. and, therefore, all statements
made by accused after that time
were not allowed as evidence,
The only reason given for King
having committed the murder was
that he was jealous of Willie and de-
sired to drive the black team, a
privilege not accorded hint. No evi-
dence was offered by the defence.
King is quite pleased with the
finding of the jury.
King is a Whitechapel product, and
his victim was a homeless boy,
adopted from an orphan asylum.
Mrs. Shirley Acquitted.
Quebec, April 23.—The jury, yes-
terday afternoon, brought in a ver-
dict of not guilty in the case of Mrs.
Shirley, accused of having procured

Soap is better than perfume. Artifi-
cial sweetness is a poor substitute for a
wholesome body or pure heart. What
some people need more than a sweet
ensile is a clean eouscience. The outside
of the platter is clean, "but the inside is
full of extortion and excess." It takes
all some men eau give to the church and
for charity to keep down the odor that
arises from au evil life, or a mean dis-
position. They break their box of oint-
ment with sanctimonious imprudence
and cunning design, in hope that the
aroma will drown the noxious ya4ors of
their unwashed fetid souls. Make the
inside clean, old fellow. If you have to
take the spiritud skin off with the soap
of repentance and the water of re -gener-
ation, get clean inside before you don
the garb of pure religion or put on the
mantle of philanthropic charity. Keep
your "alabaster box" until you are sure
its fragrance will not afford a background
for the skunk nature that larks under
your spiritual clothes. "A good name
is better than precious ointment." .A.
man as poor as a church mouse, with a
clean heart and a wholesome life is worth
all the rich hypocrites that ever built
churches or endowed orphan asylums.
A laboring man with the fear of God in
his heart and the love of bis fellows ex-
pressed in his daily life, does more for
Christianity than alt the loud -mouthed,
open-handed, self -loving professors of
religion that ever smote golden silence
into brazen hypocrisy, ---Solomon in Shoe

DR. PITCHER HELPS
AN OLD MAN
The Kidney Weakness, Irritability
and Frequent Rising at Night,
all Cured by Dr. Pitcher's
Backache Kidney
Tablets.
People advanced in years are so prone
to kidney trouble. The filters of the
body become so clogged up and out of or-
der after years of incessant work keep-
ing the blood pure.
There is too frequent urination, dis•
turbing the rest at night, pain or scald-
ing, weakness of the bladder, non -reten-
tion of the urine, and severe pain in the
back, making stooping or rising a pain•
ful operation.
For these conditions there is no reme-
dy so effective as Dr. Pitcher's Backache
Kidney Tablets.
They make old people rejoice in re-
newed strength and vigor of the whole
urinary system, take the pain and stiff-
ness out of the back, and permit undis-
turbed rest at night.
Mr. Joseph Rippon, 503 Duudas street,
Woodstock, Ont , who has been in the
book and stationery business for over
thirty-five years, says:
"With people reaching nmy, age, sixty-
seven years, more or less backache and
kidney trouble is not uncomtnon. For
over a year I have had more or lass
trouble and irritation in that direction,
which I lay to the long hours on my
feet of past years. Wishing; to put an
end to a trouble that was growing pro-
gressively worse, I procured a bottle of
Dr. Pitcher's Backache Kidney Tablets,
and am pleased to say they are satisfac-
tory in every respect. I did not quite
finish rhe one bottle I got, yet all , pain
and irritation are completely gone. I
am pleased to recommend them to oth

Safety Only in Total Abstinence.
Bertenders' unions are actively pro-
moting total abstinence among'their
members. The movement i,s, it' is
said, becoming quite popular. It is
hardly correct to state, however, that
these total abetinence societies, are
organized "on the principles of the W.
C T. V. "The white-ribboners, besides
promising to abstain from intoxicants,
ere pledged also to "employ all proper
means to discourage the use ofl send
tr:;ffie in the game." The object of
the bartenders is self protection only.
They protest tgainet "making their
stom•iche common sewers" by drinking
with every "good fellow" that invites
then to'do 5o. Their employer.g will
doubtless encourage this new depart-
ure. While they cannot, for obvious
ro•isons, demand ictal abstinence of
their employes, lt5 eam',piber business
men, they are nbt !A low to recognize
the fact that ,saloon interests, no less
the+5n railroad 'interests, are better
served by employes who are, tcetotel-
er.e than by those who Oven occasion-
ally indulge it a social glass.---TJnien
