The Chinese Masonic Funeral Yesterday.
The Chinese “Masonic” order o
Nevada City planted one of their celestial-eyed brethren under the sod
yesterday. Hy Lo, the deceased, wil]
cadaverous looking chap, who has
for a long time officiated about town
as a street-sweeper. He was a “belly
good Chinaman” who had succeeded
in climbing away up on the greased
pole which is a feature in the great
secret order of which he was a shining light.’ But these advantages did
not enable Hy Lo to stave off thie destroyer Consumption, which had long
since\marked him fora victim. So
he laid him déwn and passed off into
the other world, where the moon
never sets, and Kearney is not of ite
people.
When he had breathed his last,
the “Masons” took the smoke hued
remains, and put them into a stained
pine coffin which was adorned with
brassheaded nails and other equally
fantastic things. Then they took
out into the middle of China
reet, and placing a stand covered
ith eatables at the foot of the coffin
ommenced the funeral rites peculiar
o.the order. Member after memr came forward, and holding a
piece ot burning punk in their grimy
bands, would prostrate themselves
on the ground, at the same time uttering a wierd chant. Occasionally
one of them would apparently make
a blunder in performing the exercisos, wien all the rest would join in a
hearty\laugh at his expense.
