Full Regiment at Impressive Services Held in the Fourteenth Armory. OLD COMRADES IN LINE. Chaplain Sattig's Eulogy of the Deceased Procession to Greenwood Viewed by Crowds. With full military and civil honors, the body of Colonel Harry W.

Mlohell, who died at his summer residence in Bayport, L. on Tuesday, was interred In Greenwood Cemetery yesterday afternoon, after a most impressive ceremony In the armory of the Fourteenth Regiment. The entire regiment marched to the cemetery amid thousands of sorrowing people who lined both sides of the streets through which the procession passed. The service was attended by hundreds of well-known Brooklynltes who knew Colonel Mlchell and a large representation of the public and military service. For two days the body had lain In state In the quarters of Cojonel John H.

Foote, with uniformed guardsmen always present. Many beautiful floral pieces, which had been received at the armory during the day, were placed about the walls of the colonel's room, and beside the catafalque where the casket rested. Before the ceremony hundreds of people took an opportunity to view the body, and then passed Into the main part of the building to await the service. The casket, of rich oak and covered with Old Glory, was borne into the arm ory upon the shoulders of six non-com-H missioned officers, preceded by the chaplain of the regiment, the Rev. John Henri Sattlg, General James McLeer, tho two daughters of Colonel Michell, and Colonel Foote and his staff.

Following the body were the officers of the Fourteenth, members of the Fourteenth Regiment Veterans Association, Grant Post. G. A. and the colonel's late associates in the excise department. As Chaplain Sattlg descended the steps to the armory floor, Louis Conterno'e band played Chopin's funeral march.

Chaplain Sattlg conducted the regular Episcopal service, during which he paid a elnwlna- tribute to the deceased. He said: "We are here to pay our hearty tribute to the work of Colonel Harry W. Michell. I have heard It said that we know our friends better after they have been taken from us. and I believe that it Is true.

While we have them with us, while we see their many achievements, their many occupations, our attention is riveted- on those thlnas. those incidents through life, and we fail to discover the principles that underlie their lives and we tan to oib-cover that their actions were but a slight manifestation of the spirit within. We may know the streets and squares and parks and monuments ana Duuumga the cltv hut when we behold the same from some high place we then see the relation that those thinas bear to one another. We observe the broad scope and general layout of the city. I wouia a you to behold the character of our friend because I believe we can gain a more complete picture of the man In hie threefold character of citizen-soldier-friend.

"First, aa a citizen he served the peo ple in the highest position that, in times of peace, a man can fill. I believe that the name Harry W. Michell will long be remembered in the office of trust that he held up to the time of his deatn. i nave been told that his administration of that difficult public office has won for him the unBtlnted praise of the men who knew what he had to contend with. It was hie knowledge of character and his ability to draw from men the best that there was In them that enabled him to discharge his duties so well.

Oh, could we nnh renlia the extent to which we are deeply Indebted to public officers who discharge their duties with Intelligence and integrity. We all unite in acknowledging that r-nlnnel Michell did difficult work and did It well and we express to him tho gratitude of those who nave Deen Denu-flted. But perhays the chapter of thia moo-. iif that anneals most to us who are gathered here is that chapter of his career which tells or nis seiv. his country.

In that career i-oioiiei Michell won an honorable name. The Fourteenth Regiment is Justly proud of his record. Colonel Michell rose from the ranks of this regiment. His connection ith it bcean on April 18, 1861, when he enlisted in Company as a private. He wag appointed a corporal August 1 and a sergeant November 1 of the same year.

One year later he was appointed first sergeant and received his commission as second lieutenant on February 21, 1863. "At Gettysburg tne ionowiug yeui-and bim Hunting: with the rank of first lieutenant. Colonel Michell fought in all of the engagements in which his regiment participated until he was captured by tho enemy, at the Battle of the Wilderness. At that time he was adjutant on the staff of General James C. Rice.

He languished in Southern prisons until he was mustered out of the service, on March 12, 1865. Colonel Michell was elected captain of his own company, and after passing throuzh the various ranks he was elected colonel, In 1885. Until 1897 he commanded the regiment, and retired at his own re quest. Thirty-six thirty-six tnirty-six continuous years of service in a regiment; That, I believe, is a very brief resume ot his military career. It does not give the little personal touch that we would like.

Time prevents me from going into details, but they tell me that on one occasion during the Battle of Gettysburg he was wounded twice and refused to leave the Hold. Then he bravely bore those eleven months of imprisonment in Southern cities. At the Battle of Charleston he was one of the men exposed to the Confederate fire to prevent the shelling ot the city. "There is another side of the life of Colonel Michell that I want to speak about. As a friend ho has, or was, endeared to many people.

His genial manner, his handsome presence, his ready smile and willing hand characterized htm as friend until the very last. Some Idea of his ability to make friends Is shown In the Intimate relations between him and the men from whom he received his appointment. Tho name of our illustrious commander will long he heard. We rejoice to think that this great man fought In the ranks of this regiment. The relation that he bore to some of the men In this regiment was sweet and tender.

I regret that I did not know bim well; yet, as I entered this armory this afternoon on all sides I heard from soldiers and civilians the highest words of praise spoken on behalf of Colonel Michell. It is some time since any man, who has been called away, left such a number of admiring friends. His face will be missed. There Is no tribute that could be paid, no words that can be chosen to give him too much credit." As the chaplain concluded his eulogy the band softly played "One Sweetly Solemn Thought," followed by a brief Scripture reading and prayer. As the chaplain finished the words of his benediction, the band started "Nearer My God to Thee," and without interruption went off into Sullivan's Rolemn "Lost Chord." The body was Carried out of the Fourteenth Btreet door of the armory through a long lane of spectators to the hearse which waited on Kighth avenue The floral pieces were placed in two open victorias.

General McLeer accompanied Colonel Michell's daughters and rode In their carriage to the cemetery. Mrs. Michell was unable to attend the ceremony. As escorts there were Brevet Brigadier General Ardolph L. Kline, former colonel of the Fourteenth; Colonel Henry C.

Barthman of the Forly-Eeventh Regiment, Lieu- IMS of Williams or Amherst or Dartmouth.

all well known men In the athletic world. IN FROM THE BRAZILS. The Lloyd Brazilr-iro Llnr- sfoarrmhlp Acre arrived jfsterday at tho Hush Company'! Independfnt mores from Rio de Janeiro, Victoria. Pahla, Pernamhii-o, Ceara, Maranham. Tara and Barbados.

She brought 21 passenger and a rargo of only 1.510 bans of roBce, Home sklnn. leather and fruit. a 111 of of providers had a rush of business all day. The popcorn, peanut, banana, lemonade end other stands also reaped a harvest through the patronage of the youngsters. Balloon venders, tickler and whip merchants and others made money In etacks.

The keeper of the ostrich pen, with his birds on exhibition at 10 cents per look, did a land office business, and had to sit up late last night to count his cash, so large were the receipts of the day. The young folks had great fun watching Fleetwing and Miss Florida two of the ostriches, which were driven about the racetrack. The birds behaved better than usual yesterday. Miss Florida cut up a few didoes, but went well in harness. The exhibition buildings and tents had throngs of the young folks all day.

The exhibition of school work seemed to in terest them as well as their parents and teachers. Souvenir hunting was a spe cialty with many of the children, and some gathered up about all they could carry. Children literally Made the Day a "Howling" Success. The young folks not only had fun galore yesterday, but they made the fair a "howling" success. Their pleasures also the pleasures of the older ele merit, the latter seeming to enjoy ming ling with the youngsters and watching their Indulgence In different amusements as much as if they were boys and girls once more and having all toe fun.

The presence and evident happiness of the young folks certainly brought pleasant recollections of days gone by and frequently the expression was heard, "I wish I were a boy again." In point of attendance yesterday was the biggest day since the school children have been admitted to the fair. The at tendance of the grown-up element, of course, is figured in. but the combined elements gave the society the biggest fourth day It has ever had. There were no means at hand to tell just how many persons were in the grounds, but the crowd was estimated to be over 25,000 As on Thursday, the big grand stand was packed, the aisles being utilized during the afternoon, also the press stand in front, the stand rails, and other placeB of vantage. The crowded condition of the grand stand on Thursday and yester day, coupled with the fact that hundreds of persons wanted seats, but could not get them, demonstrates that the society must enlarge the stand without delay or continue to lose money by turning away patronage from the stand.

The crowds that occupied the green in front of the grand stand had difficulty yesterday and Thursday in seeing the finish of the races. The green is sloped 'some, but not enough to permit those who are obliged to stand back and look over the heads of other spectators to ee the finish of the horses, unless one Is exceptionally tall. This Is due not only to the Improper slope of the green, but to the fact that crowds line up against the track fence during the races, and thereby help to shut out the view of the finish. Racing Fully Up to the Standard. The racing yesterday was good in every particular.

The card afforded a 2:25 class pace, a 2:16 class pace, each tor a $500 purse, and two running races, open to all, each for a purse of $150, at distances of three-quarters of a mile and a mile and one-sixteenth. In the 2:26 pace. "Jotah, a' grey mare, which John F. Remsen of Roslyn and Fred Post of East Williston purchased from Gus Gurske, a blacksmith at East Williston, recently, won first money. The mare was bred by W.

Bourke Oockran, but only lately began to show speed. She took three straight heats yesterday in 2:21, 2:2014 and Her competitors were Frank Plummer, a grey gelding of W. L. Reddy, Brooklyn, which took second money, and Little Andy, a bay gelding of C. S.

Wells, Jersey City, which won third money. The 2:16 pace, with a field of eight horses, took four heats to decide Nik-ko. a fast chestnut gelding of George Roeckel, Rockvillo Centre, took the first heat In 2:17, but could not hold his place. Elsa. a bay mare of Theodore L.

Arthur. Brooklyn, won the following three heats and the race In 2:154, 2:17 and 2:17. Lady Ellwood, a chestnut mare entered by Henry Y. Fleet of Oyster Bay, won second money. Apollo, a bay gelding of E.

C. Burdlck's of Jersey City, was third, and Madam Direct, E. D. Hollenbeck, Mlneola, fourth. Mn the three-quarter mile dash for sun-ners, Grimaldl, owned by W.

H. Moffitt, Isllp, won In 1:17. Coincident, Frank McFadden, Brooklyn, was second, and Royal Lady, another Moffltt entry, third. The second running event went to Kll-lochan, a brown gelding of John Duffy of Gravesend. In 1:50.

Klllochan beat out Druid, an entry of W. H. Moffitt, by a nose. Druid led all the way, but Klllochan, splendidly handled, refused to be shaken, and came under the wire In great form. Umbrella, W.

C. Daly's runner, who captured events on Wednesday and Thursday, had to be content with third place. The fair closes this afternoon with a strong card of races, including a 2:10 pace.
