Jacob Phftrpe’B Foneml,New Toss, April 7.—One of the queerest episodes that ever occurred in this city, was the funeral of Jacob Sharpe^ which occurred at 8:40 this evening at his late residence on west Twenty-third street. The ut-, most secrecy marked all arrangements and no one wqb allowed to enter the house except by an invitation especially issued by the family. Evidently the visitors had been instructed to give no information concerning the matter, and when questioned denied the funeral was taking place. By actual count ninety-three persons attended the funeral outside of the family, moBt of them employed on Sharp’s street road. Rev. Arraitage conducted the funeral service. Tho interrment will be had in Greenwood cemetery to-morrow.
