Plus N Giovanni Mari, Mastai
Eerretti) became Pope in succession to
Gregory XVI in 1916. In his 18th
year he went to Rome with the intcn-
ton Of entering the body guard Of the
Pope, but, having been seized by al
cpileptic attack, he, upon recovering.
resolved to devote himself to the
Church. After completing his studies
At the college Of Vo'tcrra, he was or
daincd priest and dispatched upon a
mission to Chill in 1923. Upon his
return, two years later, he became Pres
i!ent Of the St. Michael. In 1920, he
was appointed to tho Archbishopric OF
Spoleto, frou which he vas. in 1882,
translated to Inlol,, aud became Cardi-
nal under Gregory Nv: " 1870 -.
Upon the death Of the latter in 1876,
the Cardinal gained the tiara. His
first measures were Of liberal aud
popular character; he disbandcd his
Swiss guard; granted to political offend
ers, numbering 1000, unconditional
amnesty; reformed civil abuses, and
lighteued the burdens Of his people to
great extent. Thei&rovolutionsry
spirit which .woke at Paris ia l84s.
spread through Europe, and: at Rome,
~ elsewhere, the people rose against
their ruler. A republic was proclaim.
ed aud Plus TX, after remaining some
time a prisoner in bis palace, fed in dis
guise to Gaeta. These events produced
a complete reaction in the weak mind
Of the Pontiff. All the liberal tendcr-
cies of his policy disappeared under
the influence Of his Minister, Cardinal
AntonnelIi. He called upon the great
Catholic powers-France, Austria, Spain
and Naples-to re.establish his author
ity. Meanwhile, Mazzini had arrived
ut Rome, where he was proclaimed Tri-
umvir. In lS49, a French army
marched upon Rome, aud succeeded in
restoring the Pope to his throne. He
was not destined, however, to hold the
patrimony Of St. Peter intact, for in
1860, the greater part Of his territory
was annexed to the new Kingdom Of
Italy.
Several events in the life Of Pope
Plus will be remarked in history: The
PRONUNCIATION of an edict by which a
Roman Catholic hierarchy was re.estab-
lished in England, and, in consequence
of which, bill was passed in the Eng
lish Houses Of Parliament forbidding
Papal Bishops to bear ecclesiastical
titles in England; the doctrinal deai-
sion as to the Eomish dogma Of the
immaculate conception, and tho great
Kcumenical Council which was assem-
bled in 1869, for the purpose Of decIar-
ing the iufallibility Of the Pope of
Rome. He was born at Siniugaglia in
1892, and is, therefore, in the S1st
year Of his age. He is in exceeding
y i'll health: and in all probability will
survive but few days longer.

formative condition-so to spsak-the

A French Wrestling Match.

A traveller through Vermont should on no account neglect to make a tour of the country grocery stores in the neigh berhood of Rutland. Should circum- stances permit, visit during winter will De found most interesting. The men employed in the maple groves as- semble in evenings at the various stores for lounge, or anything that may turn up. It is not unusual to see a minis terlal-looking parsonage enter, and, af- ter making nasty survey of the men, single out one and challenge him to en- gage in French wrestling contest. Should the gauntlet be raised by an- other, the two men spread blanket on che floor, lie down, link arms, raise legs, and at the word "Go," begin 8 strife to get the best position on the foot for steady push. The object of the struggle is to determine which of the two can raise the upper part of the body of the other from a recurhbent position. Hence, the first object is to get the advantage of foothold. Each contestant endeavors to place the sole of his foot against the toe of his oppo- nent; then the pushing begins. Of course, every few minutes foot flies from it's position, when another strug- gle for a hold ensues. The men steady themselves by the disencumbered arm, which can grasp nothing but the blanket. These matches occur every evening in some of the rendezvous of the sugar-men, and though they attract the attention of strangers, regular cus- toners pass in and out as if nothing unusual was in progress.

Bones of Dead Chinamen.

We saw brought to the depot of the Virginia and Truckee Railroad Com pany, in this place, says Virginia, Nevada paper, two boxes of bones of dead Celestials for shipment to Stock ton, Cal. The Chinese in the boxes had been buried in the Chinese burial ground near this city about four years, an d their bones were quite heshless. The bones were taken out of the collins, assor ted, and tied up in punches in white rags. After being brought to Climate wn and before being boxed up the friends of the deceased had some kind of & pow WOW over the bones. Roast pigs nd other refreshments were placed on tab les, and about these were gathered the friends of the deceased, who muttered prayers, and at intervals bowed down and kissed the ground. Several Chinamen came to the depot with the remains in order to see the boxes5properly marked and prepared for shipping. One of these informed us that the bones would eventually be sent to China, but that for the present they would go to the head man of the com pany to which the deceased belonged. When received by this man in Stock ton the bones will be taken out of the boxes and packed in earthen jars, and after there shall have accumulated a sufficient number of skeletons all will be sent to China to be delivered to their relatives for burial in that holy soil from which alone the true Celestial can arise at the last great day.

Paris Green and the Cotton Worm,

The effectiveness of Paris green in destroying the cotton worm is a subject of much discussion in the Southern press. A letter from cotton factor and planter in Montgomery, Ala, writes to banking-house of New York as follows:
 am just in from my farm: The cot ton is all safe up to this time still free from worms where the Paris green was applied. l am perfectly satisfied, and so are all who have properly used the Paris green, that we can now completely destroy the worms, and by it's universal use for one season in the districts sub- Ject to them entirely exterminate them. This will be next to the discovery of the cotton gin in giving an impetus to the extension of cotton planting, and now think it is only question of prices as to how much we can increase our cotton crop. With no danger from worm, we can make cotton profitably at from 10 to F cents per pound, and I think that another year no one will fear the worm. The only question is, can @ sufficient quantity of Paris green be obtained to go all over the crop south of latitude B degrees north ? If so. we can in one season exterminate the worm. I do not think there is @ single practical planter who has used it or seen its effects, on proper application, who is not perfectly satisfied that it is a complete success. have only found it necessary to make the application the second time upon those spots where it was put on imperfectly or the applica- tion was immediately followed by ex- cessive rains. This is also the exact experience of all of whom have any knowledge.

A Dog that Digs Potatoes.

A full-blooded Newfoundland dog is owned in Oregon, Ill. This dog is un- usually smart and industrious. One day recently he pulled up potato vine with his teeth, and observing potatoes hanging thereto, proceeded to paw up the hill and carry the roots to the centre of the yard. When this was done, he commenced on the muskmelon patch, and did not desist until he pulled ali there was, some twelve in number, and added them to the potato pile He then went to work on the cucumbers, thinking to secure the crop ere the frost came, but at this juncture he was caught and tied up. In 8 short time he was again cavorting around, having gnawed the rope with which he was tied in two. He now fingers at the end of cham. Anybody wiShing to secure the services of this dog to dig their po- tatoes and gather their vegetables, should apply at once to his owner, for there is big demand for his services while help is so scarce.

Success Based Upon Merit.

It is a subject of general remark, among both wholesale and retail druggists, that no medicine introduced to the American public has ever gained such popularity and met with so large sale in all parts of the land, in the same length of time, as Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. This cannot depend upon it's having bsen more largely advertised than any other medicine, as such is not the case. The correct explanation we think, is found in the fact that this medicine produces the most wonderful and perfect cures of very bad cases of bronchial throat and lung diseases is undoubtedly the most perfect and efficient remedy for all kinds of coughs that has ever been introduced to the public. and at tho same time possesses the greatest of blood-purifying> and strengthening properties that medical science has been able to produce, thus rendering it sovereign reme- dy not only in the cure of Consumption, Bron- chitis, Hoarseness and Coughs, but also for all diseases of the liver and blood as scrofulous diseases, blotches, rough skin. pimples, black specks and discolorations. It has therefore a wide range of application and usefulness, and it not only gives the most perfect satisfaction to all who use it, but far exceeds the expecta- tions of the most sanguine, thus elciting the loudest praise. and making permanent liuing advertising mediums of all who use it. For these reasons it is that there is not perhaps a druggist in all the vast domain of this Conti- nent, who tries to please his customers and SUD- ply their wants, that does not keep and sell large quantities of this most valuable medicine
