The etiquette Of the Vatican renn ~
that the Pope shall dine alone. and
while eating he reads the nevypapers.
When he wishes to show especial honor
to foreign prince or to any personaue
Of importance, he invites him TO take =

is expected to attend the first mass and
to receive the communion from the

ghesa, Aldobrsadini, Altievi and Pom
bino, while the same favor is often
shown to the Popes nephews. Cardi-
nal Pecci used to live in the Vatican,
and he frequently visited his brother
while the latter was eating dinner.
Dinner is served ct l o'clock, the
usual hour in Rome for that meal.
This repast consists of soup, dish of
roast meat and vegetables, fruit and
some old Bordeaux wine. No boiled
meats or pork in any form or cheese il
ever seen on the table.
The meal ended, his Holiness in
dulges in nap of an hours length
while seated in large armchair; then,
weather permitting, he goes for walk
in the gardens, accompanied by one of
his private chamberiains and a Lieut.
enant in the Papal Guards. His car
riage is also in attendance, SO that he
can ride when overfatigued by walk
ing. His Holiness still considers him
self prisoner, and never leaves the
precincts of the Vatican; but the gar.
dens of that palace are very extensive,
the main drive measuring quite mile
in length. At one end of the park is q
vineyard, cultivated by the children OF
an agricultural orphanage that was
founded by Plus IN, and named after
him the Vinga Pia. Leo XIII. often
visits the vineyard. and whenever he
notices one of the boys doing his work
intelligently he stops to have chat.
He takes much interest in agricultural
matters and is we'll posted in botany.

IN FORBIDDEN LISDs.

Few stories of travel possess so large
an element of romantic interest as those
of the native explorers who have been
employed by the Indian government for
twenty years past to investigate the
regions north of the Himalayas that
are not accessible to white men. Dis
guised as merchants, mendicants, or
monks, they have worked their way
through vast stretches of country by
means of various experiments. such as
peddling small wares or reciting pas
sages from Buddhist sacred books. They
have mapped the larger part of the
southern Thibet, and the Pandit,
Ak, in his four and half years.
wanderings, travelled over an immense
territory that no white man except
Marco Polo has visited.
The Thibetans regarded Ak, the
most famous of these explorers, as
very devout person. Everywhere he
went they saw him telling the beads of
his Buddhist rosary. This was his
method of measuring distances. During
all his long travels he dropped bead
at every hundred PAGES. In the prayer
barrel that hung from his neck were
the few scientific instruments he could
carry, and the little books in which he
kept his records. In Lhassa, where
the Dalai Lama, the visible incarnation
of Buddha, lives, Ak spent year.
Only three of our disguised white men
have ever seen the splendid temples OF
this sacred city of the Buddhists, and
since Hue and CADET spent ten weeks
there, forty-one years ago, we have
learned little of it except through the
Indian explorers.
These men, two of whom have re-
ceived the gold medals of the Paris and
Royal Geographical societies, are
seldom known to the world by their
names until after their services as ex-
plorers can no longer be utilized. It
is only by concea!ing their identity as
servants of the Indian government that
they can be made useful in tae lands
they visit. None of them is highly ed
ucated. Few of the wealthy, educated
Indians would care to undergo the
they experience. Ak, in
the last part of his journey, travelled a.
. beggar and in rags, and he served for
months in Thibet as q herder of sheep
before he could resume his work.
These men are chosen for their inteli-
yence, tact, and physical endurance.
They are taught little more than the
slements of science, 50 that they can
make the requisite observations and
measurements, keep their field books,
and describe the physical features and
peoples of the places they pass through.

In the Streets Of Pekin.

Among other dread sights we passed
and met long camel trains, heavily
laden, and winding their way through
the dingy alleys, literally led by the
nose, one driver to every six or eight
camels, fastened by rings or cords
drawn through their noses. One does
not like to think i'll of camels-those
patient, long-sufering beasts that look
so picturesque under the palm-trees in
pictures of oriental landscape; but
near acquaintance with them is very
disillusioning. They are both sly and
vicious, and become terrible when met
in close quarters. We turned suddenly
into narrow sort of alley, repulsive be-
yond description, and here Fatima drew
back, shifting prophetically. I urged
her little and she went forward, but
presently I saw we had to meet long
line of camels, heavily laden with crates
of tea, each about the size and shape
of the pressed hay" packages so COM
mon in America. I could not imagine
how we could pass them, and yet I
feared to turn about, even had snere,
been space enough, which was doubt
full. Fatima sprang cloee to the wall,
drawing her littls hoofs and slender
legs almost under her. followed her
example and leaned against the dingy
adobe mass, while the long line fled
their tea-crates past us, swaying their
heads and long, matted names from
side to side, and grazing against us as
they went Each one eyed us with q
malicious glance from their small evil
looking eye, which suggested longing
to strike out q furious blow from one Of
those powerful noiseless feet But
their chances were met by looks OF
scorn and defiance, on the part OF
Fatima, mingled perhaps with little
fear, for she evidently knew our
danger. With her body fattened
against the wall-and yet not pressing
me harshly-she laid her small ears,
which were never quiet, close back,
and turned her head toward the camels.
Her nostrils dilated and redeemed, her
lips parted and the fine squarely-set
teeth showed between, while her enor-
NOUS vigilant eyes were fixed on the
camels, and flashed an "at your peril"
look at each one as the interminable train
slowly wendell its uncouth way past
us, leaving us both quivering together
as one poor aspen leaf in the autumn
wind.

JUDGE THOMAS OH4RA of Rerrier

JUDGE THOMAS OHARA of Berrien
Springs, Mich, publishes in local paper
a lengthy and very able article on "local
option" 1t is an appeal to democrats to
quit serving the whiskey interest. 1t
cites historical facts to show that to
abandon principle for purposes of expe-
diency invariably results in ultimate
failure, though temporary success may
be assured. The Judge writes ably and
clearly and as he is regarded as an oracle
by the young men of the county in which
he resides, his appeal will be fruitful of
results at the approaching elections held
In that county on local option. The
Judge was q Manitowoc boy. a son Of
John OHsrs.

JOHN SHERMAN has nothing but words
of praise for Blaine now. John always
knew Blaine would get off the track and
it is for this reason himself went on. Now,
that Blaine can not profit by the mag
unanimous expression, Sherman thinks
the Maine statesman would be nominal
ed and most triumphantly elected and
that he ought to be. In the first blush
of gratitude at being relieved OF a most
formidable opponent, Sherman does say
sweet things of the Maine statesman
Besides, he wants to be rewarded by
Blaine's friends.

ANOTHER obstacle to Sheridan's nomi-
nation and election arises in the knowl-
edge that he is a Roman Catholic. An
Irishman and Roman Catholic in the
presidential chair! How every drop of
Puritan blood will tingle with horror at
the idea! Oh, no, there is no danger of
Phil until time and intelligence will have
made national and religious bigotry less
intense. The fact that Sheridan has
nothing to recommend him but that he
was a fighter and that he is no more fit
to be President of the United States than
to be keeper of the gate of heaven, would
play no part in his defeat.

BLAINE has at last announced that his
name Will not be presented at the coming
national republican convention. He gives
no reason for his determination, but
shrewdly interjects election statistics and
arguments to show that the defeat of
1884 was not due to his candidacy. There
will be many conjectures as to the cause
which impelled Blaine to decline to be a
candidate. The nomination was almost
as certainly his as that Cleveland would
be his opponent. Blaine has long most
intensely desired the presidency. Though
he argues that continuance of republi-
can success at the polls, such as have
marked the elections of 1867, is probable
and will give the republicans the greatest
national victory they have yet achieved,
his decination speaks more strongly of
his belief in democratic success in 1888.

THE woman-suffragists are not pleased
with the decision of the supreme court
in the Interpretation of the suffrage
amendment to the constitution. Indeed
the women think the supreme court don't
know much law and in this they are not
SO far out of the way. But the women
are mad, some because this inestimable
privilege which they thought was theirs,
has escaped them; others because the
expense of litigation has strained the
resources of the treasury. They can't
vote, that's fat, and they don't like to see
that all their agitation has resulted in
nothing but shadow.

Glynn has practically withdrawn from

the George party will be strengthened
by McGlynn's withdrawal for the reason
that Catholics did not want to follow the
