The thoroughly sensational drama now

Academy of Music. Mr. Oliver Doud
Byrun lasr evening opened a short en
gagement, which is to conclude with the
week, appearing m his favorite role of
Joe Ferris in "Across the Continent."
The play is most powerful and replete
wim siaruiug euecis uuu luciaeuu
railroad trains, telegraph in practical op

and other devices for electrifying the

actor, and the leader of those who have
choseu the sensational order in which to
exercise their talent. He has a very fine
presence, and invests his part with deci-
ded interest. The performance was rel
ished with manifestly much satisfaction
by a very large audience, the upper cir
cles being fairly packed.
Mr. Byron is supported by a numer

cast generally sustain their parts in' a
very satisfactory manner. ;

TOE LIST SAD BITE.
The Funeral Services orer the Ke
mains ol Bishop Atkinson The In
terment in St James Church
''Earth to Xarth ! Aihes to At hei !
Dait to Dost!'
Long before the hour (11 a. v.) an
nounced for the funeral services-over the
remains of the late Bishop .Atkinson,
thrones of people were wending tbeir
way to the grand oiu eoinice 01 at.
James Church. The front doors were
closed, with (outstrips of mourn in sus-
m b
the archway of the dooi the ume ayu.-
bel of the Church's deep rrifcf was nr.
ranged, reaching all the way down to
the door-step. Inside of the Church, on
the walls were hung festoon? ot gray moe,
while the galleries and windows were
deeply draped with the same appropriate
mourning. Interspersed with the moss
suspended from, the galleries were long
i streamers of black cloth, caught up
I ' a
sT"7 every post ana exuswuog
the entire length of the Church on either
side. At the Chancel, the archway was
draped with moss from top to bottom,
while the doors opening into the Chan.
eel from the Vestry rotm were, hung in
like manner. The arms of the Bishop's
throne or chair were entwirie4 irij-h gray
moss and purple cloth. Around the lop
of the chair wa3 white ribbon in great
profusion, the whole surmounted by a
s w
beautiful cross covered with purple cloth.
The railing around the chancel, irame-
diatply in front of the altar, had been en-
lureiy remorea ana tne auar piacea oacs
against the wall ot the chancel, and
right m the center of the chancel floor
Und immediately under the proper resting
place of the altar the floor had been re
moved, the earth dug out and a vault
built to receive the last remains of the
venerable and much-beloved Bishop.
All this was accomplished yesterday, the
dressing having been completed by loving
hearts and hand late last night aud the
last brick placed about the same hourj
A temporary flooring was then laid over
the grave and this covered with a carpet.
On the chancel wall on either side of the
chancel windows and in a line with the
lighted corona were two shields of black,
surrounded by purple and white flowers;
in the centra of one of these shields were
the words, worked in. white letters, "At
Rest," while oa the other was the quota
tion: "I am the Resurrection. The
reading desk, or lectern, was covered with
a cloth of purple, fringed with black.
At half past 10 o'clock the front doors
were thrown open and in a short time the
church was more than half filled. The
children from the Home and Misses
Burr aud James' and Miss Hart's schools
occupied the most of the galleries, ex
cept a certain portion which was reserv
ed for St. Mark's (colored)congregation.
Ushers from St. James', St. John's and
St. Paul's were in attendance to assist
in finding seats for the throng of people
who soight to gain entrance to the
church. At 11:15 the tolling ef the
bell in the tower of St. James' signified
the hour of the departure of the proces-
ion from the Episcopal residence in the
following order: 1 he vestry of bt
Mark's, the Vestry of St. Paul's, the
Vestry of St. John's and the Vestry of
St. James'; then the bier bearers, which
consisted of a delegation of ten parish
ioners from each of the four parishes,next
the corpse born by ten yoaog men from
one of the parishes above named, whd
were each in turn relieved twiet 'by
others of the bearers. On either side of
the coffin walked the pall bearers, all of
Bennett Smedes Rev. rJ . M. Ampler,
Rer. Dr. - Marshall, Rev. J . It. Olich,
ReT. T. D. Pitts, Rev. J. W. Larmur,
Rev. Dr. Patterson. Next to the bear.
era came the mourning family, including
the children and grandchildren of the de
ceased prelate, Rev. Dr. Atkinson, of
Raligh,a brother of the deceased Bishop
and Bishop Lay, of Eaaton, Maryland,
who wedded a nieee of the lateBishop.
The procession moved dowa Orange to
Third and tbence to Su james' Church,
. , ,r . . . . . 4
comer of Third and Market streets. At
12:2b the deep, sad notes of the organ, as
Mrs. Cushing, the organist, played the
funeral dirge, announced the arrival at
the church door of the solemn cortege.
Vt m-w find tn The " "KflCt OI
Ages," and 'Gottachalk's Last Hope"
were the dirges played daring the en
trance of the body as it was borne by
the bearers op the ceater aisle of the
church. Bishep Lyman, of this Diocese,
and Bishop "Yhittle, of Yirgipia, pre
ceded the procession; immediately follow
ing these came Rev. Dr. Watson,
then the clergy, two and two.to the num
ber of eight. The remains followed the
clergy, the mourners the remains.and then
the different vestries in the following or
der SL James'. St. John's. St Paul's
and St. Mark's. The clergy were pro
vided with seats inside of the Chancel,
Bishop Lyman his chair North of the al
tar and Bishop Whittle taking a seat at
the South ot the altar. The other cler
gy were equally divided on the.. Norlb
aui SoiUh sides of iite tha6icLy Bishops
Lyman and Whittle and Dr. Watson met
the body atthe church door and advanc
ed up the ai3le in the order afrcady uam
ed. Bishop Lyman reading the sentences
commencing with 'I am the Resurrection
aud the Life. Whose beHeveth in Me,
though he were dead yet shall he lire."
The body was deposited on the bier in !
front of the Chancel while the choir j
chanted the psalter for the day. Dr.
Watson, the Rector, next read the les
son.' xtymnZGttor the Hymnal "Asleep
in Jesus" was then sung by the choir
and as the last verse of this beaut ifu
hymn was being sung the venerable
Senior arcen of the. Church step
ped in the Chancel and with, his own
hands removed the carpot'over the tern
porary floor which covered the vault
Others of the different vestries then caine
to. his assistance and as the boards
were being moved, disclosing the grave
into which the last remains of the ven
erated and much beloved Bishop were so
sooa to be lowered, many an eye moisten
ed that was not used to tears. -Members
of each Vestry then assisted in lowering
the body into the grave, and almost be
fore the last echo of the music had ceased
to reverberate through the sacred walls
of the Church, the casket that contained
the mortal remains of Rt. Rev. Thos,
Atkinson, D. D., LL. D., and for twen
ty-seven years the Bishop f North Car
ouna, was niu iorever irt-m view and
frtm hundreds who were there looking
oa; the most of whom, we believe, had
fiit the gentle , touch of his apostolic
hands in the holy rite of confirmation.
The scene at thjs particalar part of the
services was most impressiTe. There uu
dr the light of the brilliant corona
which is suspended over the chancel,
stood the two Bishops ia their sacred
robes of office at the ends 'of the altar,
while around and on the other tide of
the newly'duz grave stood nine other
clergymen robed in their pare white
surplices, looking with bowed heads
down into the grave, while the congre
gation, all standing, looked on with rev
erence and awe at this most solemn and
impressive scene.
Bishop Lyman then read the commit
tal sentences, part of which arc the sad
yet beautiful words "Earth to Earth,
Ashes to Ashes, Dust to Dust." Bishop
Whittle, of Virginia, read the concluding
prayers. Rev.Dr. Watson then gave out
the 493rd hymn, "Jerusalem the Gold
en," which was sung by the cengrega
tion. At the conclusiou of this hymn
the Rector announced that the services
were over and'that the family desired to
be left alone in the church. The large
congregation, which was almost packed in
the building,many standing in the North
and South aisles, then quietly withdrew.
The insideofthe vault, we neglected
to say at the proper, place, was . inlaid
with white plush cloth. A beautiful
large cross made, of fero leaves, oedar
flowers and calla lillies, was placed on
the coffin' after it had been lowered , into
the grave.
The day seemed to be indicative of the
beautiful life and quiet, peaceful end of
this servant of God who has just fallen
asleep. The weather was mild and pleas
ant and the sun shone with brilliant,
genial warmth which made it most agree
able to all who ventured out. The day
of the week is the one on which His Mas
ter was laid in the tosvb and therefore
we know it could have had no terrors for
thifl faithful follower of the excellent pre
cepts of the Founder'of oarjblessed re.
ligion.
The vault in which the remains of the
Bishop were deposited will be left open
until 9 o'clock this e-eniog. It will be
sealed up sometime duriug the night.
One of the vestrymen of St. James'
Church will be with the body cf the Bish
op until the vault is closed.
Overshoes are in unusual demand: the
most desirable seem to be what is term

TBIBUTE OP REPKCT. I
The Rector and Vestry of St. James'
Parish, called together on the occasion
of the death of the beloved Bishop of
this Diocese, the Rt. Rev. THOMAS
ATKINSON, D. D., LL. D , and desir
ing to give expression to their feelings,
do hereby
icesoive, mat in tne deatn ot our
venerable Father in God the members
of this Parish, at whose altar he for
some time officiated a3 Rector, havo pe
culiar cause for grief in the heavy be
reavement they have sustained. Not
one congregation only bows its head un
der this chastening of the hand of God
but every circle and every congregation
throughout the Diocese weep over the
bier of thier great Bishjp. It is -such
men as he, men of prayer and men of
truth, who constitute the strength and
power of a State. He was wise in coun
sel, - gentle in manners, with a
kind word from his kindly heart
to all who sought . his intercourse.
He went about doing good.comforting the
troubled, upholding theweak and cheer
ing the despondent, a true leader of the
Hosts of God whose trumpet Dever gave
forth an uncertain sound. While we
mourn the heavy affliction which has be
fallen us, yet we thank God for the great
privilege we have enjoyed of having been
so closely connected with one whose daily
walk so exemplified the truths of the
Christian religion. His life was a prep
aration for eternity and he 60 lived that
the lengthening shadows of his earthly
pilgrimage disturbed him not and when
the summons came he could exclaim in
the exultant language of St.Joho,"Atneu, i
even so come quickly Lord Jesus."
Besolued. T-hzt as a token of our re
spect for our departed Bishop the Yes-
try ot tnis i ansn wniaiiena nis iunerai
m a body.
Resolved. That we tender to his af
flicted family aud particularly to his ren-
erable widow our profoundest sympathy
m their sorrow, commending them to the
watchful care of that God in whom our
departed Bishop believed and trusted.
Kesolved, lhat the Hector ol mis
Parish be respectfully requested to
ransmitacopy of these resolutions to
Mrs. Atkinson. x
