FUNERAL OF IENA VICTIMS.
TOULON. France. March Iii—The
victims of the explosion on board the
battleship lens March 12. were given
an imposing national funeral today. All
business was suspended. buildings
were draped in black and the lighted
street lamps were. covered with crepe.
The funeral procession was extreme-
ly long. Tire coffins were piled on gun
carriages draped "with the flag of
France. President Fallierea in the
course of a touching oration recalled
Abraham Lincoln‘s famous Gettys-
burg speech saying: . '
"Like Lincoln we ask the glorious
dead whom we white. with sorrow in
our hearts and tears In our eyes to,
strengthen us bribe religion of cour-
age and love of duty."
The cabinet. ministers. representa-
lives of all countries and many depur
ties and translate and officers of all
arms attended the funeral. '
The president conferred a number
of decorations on the injured members
of the crew of the lens. during a visit
which he paid to the hospital.
A man could afford to give ton tim-
es as valuable an’bnugement ring If
it was sure to be broken off.
