LAF OLLE'I'IE Sermon Preached in State Capitol— “Am- erica” Is Sung By Those at Services MANY ATTEND Thousands View Body ' Lying in State and Pay Last Tribute to Statesman MADISON, “'15.. June 22 (AP).- Services of extreme simplicity at- tended the burial today of Senator Robert Marion La Ii‘ollettc. Although from the moment his funeral train arrived here last Sat~ urday from \Vashington the State claimed his body for its own. there was nothing of pomp or of ceremony in these. the last honors that it might tender. That was as the Senator himself had wished. To f1iends of a. lifefime was given the sad task of conveying the body to sanctuary in his native soil at a point overlooking a broad blue lake beside which he was born. and came to man‘s estate. Many others with whom he had labored so long in the State slid the Nation were gathered from far and near to do homage at his bier. The expansive rotunda of the massive State Capitol. where yester- day his body lay in state. was the place of the brief funeral service. arranged as follows: ' Hymn—“Nearer My God to Thee." Mozart and Mannechoir chorus. Funeral " sermon—Dr. A. E. Hays don of Chicago. Hymn—“Abide With Me." Mozart and Mann‘eehoir chorus. “America." with the chorus lead- ing the audience. Thousands had journeyed to Madi- son for the funeral. .Many of these came to join the throngs that viewed the body yesterday. while others reached here today by trains from Chicago and other nearby points some hours before the services at 1 p. m. . Throughout the hours that the body lay in state a steady stream of people passed in reverent silence. Even before the doors of the State House were opened at noon, long lines had formed at Capitol Square and when they were closed again at twilight some still were waiting. The casket yesterda rested under rays of the narrow g 1! windows set high in the curve of the dome. A bank of palms and flowers was the background. A large American .tlag covered the foot of the plain casket and two others hung from a marble bslustrade which blended with the bower of palms and flowers. On each side were Wisconsin State flags.
