CREMATED. John Tyler’s Remains Consigned to the Crematory Oven. From the Cincinnati Enquirer. A little funeral procession yesterday after noon wended its way westwardly along Browne street, and the people along the solemn line of march stood in their door yards and wondered where the cortege could be going, as there are no cemeteries in that direction. The procession was pro ceeding to the crematory, which stands on the brow of the hill to the east of Dixmyth avenue, strongly reminding the beholder of the ruins of sorao old feudal castle. The cortege wended its wav to the crematory instead of the ceme tery, in accordance with the ante mortem request of the deceased. The deceased was John Tyler, of Milldale, Ky., who had gone live years beyond man's allotted three score and ten. He claimed to be a nephew of President Tyler. He was a man of some property and means, and was noted in the community in which he resided for certain eccentricities. During the last few years of his life ho was an enthusiast on the subject of cremation, and never failed to visit the sick of his neighborhood to advise them that if the worst should come the wisest disposition that they could have made of their remains would be to have them cremated. He was a stockholder in the crematory in which his own remains wore yesterday incinerated. Before his death the deceased, in keeping with the eccentricities for which ho was noted, gave directions that his body should not be placed on ice, and that his coffin should be the plainest aud most inexpensive to be found. This last request, at least, was certainly carried out most conscientiously. It was about 3 o’clock yesterday afternoon when the hearse and two carriages contain ing mourners drew up at the crematory door. The nows that, there was to be a cremation hud gone abroad and fully TWO HUNDRED PEOPLE stood about in a roasting sun awaiting the arrival of the remains. The mourners car ried with them a glass urn in which to re ceive the ashes after the incineration. The great furnace was in readiness to receive the body, the stoker standing at its hot and glowing mouth feeding it coke. The very plain coffin was taken from the hearse and carried into one of the little ante-rooms of the crematory. There the body was taken from the coffin by two attendants, denuded of its shroud and wrapped in an alum soaked wiuding-sheet. THE BODY was placed on an iron car—cradle, the at tendants called it. The car, or truck, is a four-wheeled affair, about the length of the human Ixxly, the flat iron bars of which it is constructed crossing each other at right angles, leaving regular series of open squares. Through these open spaces the ashes drop into the bed of fire be low, according as the body incinerates. It is only the small proportion of the ashes clinging to the bars that are preserved for the friends. The body, wrapped up com pletely, head and all, in the alum-soaked winding sheet, was laid upon the car, and the car with a vigorous push was rolled into the fiery furnace. The body remains on the ear during the incineration. Very little privacy attended the cremation. All who applied were admitted, except perhaps the mischievous and irreverent small boy, who is wanted nowhere, especially where the presence of death imposes the duty of de corum. It was the -writer’s FIRST EXPERIENCE at a cremation, and, as human nature is pretty much the same, his own feelings will no doubt fairly illustrate the emotions of all present. The scene awakened none of that awe. that sadness, that serious reflection, that, determination to, in the future, think less of the here and more of the hereafter, that is inspired by the sight of a coffin being lowered into the dark, damp grave, and the sound of the earth falling upon the lid as the grave-diggers cover It up’ from mortal eyes forever. The scene awakened no nobler emotion than one of curiosity. It inspired no horror, no sadness, no thought of death, none of these peculiar feelings that the sight of a burial stirs up in the breast. It was simply A FEELING OF CURIOSITY that was experienced, an interest such as you feel in a ceremony or operation that you never saw before. Simply that and nothing more. The crowd that stood about discussed the operation in a matter-of-fact way, and with a cold-blooded curiosity, as if it were a spectacular exhibition prepared for their en tertainment, and not the solemn ceremony of- ‘ashes ti > ashes. ” In a few moments after the body had been placed in the oven a blue flame began to play about the winding sheet in which the remains w r ere wrapped. “What's the idea of wrapping the Ixxly in an alum-soaked sheet f” was asked of the at tendant. “Alum resists fire,” was tho reply, “and while the sheet is comparatively uninjured by the heat, the body within its’folds is rap idly incinerating. The idea is to conceal the body during the process of cremation, in or der to shut out from the sight of the friends UNPLEASANT SPECTACLE of seeing the departed one’s flesh linking to a VS 8 !* nn< * the bones burning to ashes.” che heat of the furnace was almost incon ceivably intense. It was at such a degree of white heat that a glance within revealed the embers fairly glistening like snow be neath the cold rays of a January sun. Tho temperature was up to 2,500’. Still, so t uck are tho brick walls of the oven that °ut- could stand within six inches of it with comfort, except when the stoker opened tho heavy iron door to shovel in more coke. 1 " ice, at the request of the mourners, tho attendant njienod the door aud allowed them to look at tho body. THE WIDOW, a very pleasing looking woman, of about 35 she was the second wife of the deceased— looked in with the others. She seemed well pleased with the process of incineration, ;? r after the second look she remarked that he believed cremation to lie lietter than jurial, and that when her time comes she guessed she'd have her remains disposed of “ er , husband’s were. The mourners de- Pju-ted after the body had been in the oven half an hour, leaving orders that hen the cremation was completed THE ASHES Mould bo placed in the glass urn they had "light and sent to a certain drug store on “eet t where thev would Iks called for, . ’ w >m't be a long job,” remarked an at i ‘tfiant after tho friends had raken their epai-turo, “as ho was a skinny man.

WILL, THE BANK WIND UP? A Movement by the Stockholders of the Planters’ Savings Bank. At Augusta Tuesday a paper was being circulated for signatures the object of "'hit'll was to wind up the business of tho Planters’ Loan and Savings Bank. Tho rumor was corroborated, the stockholder stating that while the bank is perfectly solvent, it is not paying, and that the insti tution can be wound up and tho stockhold ers get much more out of it than if they continue to run it. The stock is quoted to day at five, and it is believed that if closed out it wifi easily net six and a half. The following copy of an advertisement expluins itself: STOCKHOLDERS MEETING OF THE PLANTERS’ LOAN AND SAVIKUS BANK. ‘‘The undersigned representing one-fourth of the capital stock of said bank, hereby give notice that a convention of dhe stock holders of this corporation will he held at its banking house in the city of Augusta at 10 o’clock a. m., on Wednesday, July 37, 1887. Business of groat importance will be brought before tho convention. Leonard Phinzy, John Jay Cohen, J. B. White, E. F. Verdery, Harper Bros.. James E. Harper, C. 11. Howard, AY. H Howard.” The Augusta Gazette of yesterday has the following on the suject: “The publica tion concerning tho Planters’ Loan and Sav ings Bank necessarily disquieted many of the stockholders and caused a great deal of alarm in town. The facts are these. The gentloroen signing the notice calling a convention of stockholders did so on their own responsibility and without notifying the President or the cashier. True, these gentlemen represent one-fourth of the cap ital stock, but that did not authorize them to call the convention. Gentle men representing one-fourth of the capital stock desiring to call a meeting should notify the President, who will com ply with their request. In this case this was not done. Not only so, but somo of the gen tlemen who signed the call stated that tney were under the impression that the card was asking the President to call the conven tion, and were net at nil aware that it was for publication. The Gazette is in a posi tion to state that the bank is not only sol vent, but that if its affairs were wound up and all the real estate sold, a handsome balance would be left after paying its entire debts. No dividend w’as paid this half year—the first half year in the history of the bank, now seventeen years, that it tailed to pay a divi dend—but, as was remarked by good author ity to the Gazette, business was very dull during the last half year. The same authority stated also that the expenses of first half year are much greater than the ex penses of the last half. The publication had a bad effect yesterday. For the protection of all parties interested the rule and by-law requiring sixty days’ time will be enforced. Much of the stock of the bank is invested in real estate, and a big sum is out on loan, so that it would be im possible for the bank to liquidate its debts all at once, as it would be for any other bank. The President is confident that with a little time all will be right again and the little incident created will soon blow over. One thing the stockholders and depositors may rest assured of. that the bank's position is impregnable and that dollar for dollar can be paid. The present lull in the busi ness of the bank is the first in seventeen years, and until this past half year the bank was able to pay a substantial dividend.” The First Caterpillar. From the Albany (Ga.) News and Advertiser. As surely, regularly and unfailingly as Primus Jones is the first bale man, so is G. M. Bacon the first caterpillar man. Primus’ first bale came in on July 5 this year, and now wo have Mr. Bacon’s first caterpillar. It is now on exhibition in a little quinine bottle in the News and Advertiser office, with three days’ rations of cotton leaves around it. The appearance of the first cater pillar about the middle of July should not be viewed with alarm, especially when it is remembered that it came from Merry Ba con’s farm, and that he is the early bird that invariably catches the worm. Our ad vices from him are that there are no indica tions, as yet, of the appearance of the cater pillars in anything like pestilential form or numbers. He probably had to rise early and search diligently to find this one, but, being jealous of his reputation as the first caterpillar man, and stimulated by the ap pearance of PTiinus’ first bale, he was de termined to have it. Heroee and Heroines. There are few who endure bodily troubles without complaint. Did you ever meet among the heroes or heroines of your acquaintance— it any such there have been—one with a yellowish cast of countenance and that jaundiced aspect generally, which the most unpracticed eye rec ognizes ‘as the product of a disordered liver, who did not complain, and peevishly, too, of the soreness of the recalcitrant organ, of pains be neath the right shoulder blade, of dyspeptic symptoms, constipation and headache? Of course, you never did, and of course the indi vidual was not using Hostetter’s Stomaeh Bit ters, or he would not so have looked—so have complained. To purify the blood when con taminated with bile, and conduct the secretion into its proper channel, to re-establish regularity of the bowels, bilious headache and re move impediments to complete digestion, noth ing can approach in efficacy this peerless al terative and tonic. Malarial complaints, always involving the liver and kiduey and bladder in activity, are remedied by it. It is a capital ap petizer.
