The prospective pope comes of fam

The Skin Of Her Shoulders BsQueatheA
to Flannafion.
Camille Flammarion, tho well.known
astronomer. was some years ago a
guest at the country seat Of a certain
count and countess The countess is
of foreign origin and her husbands
seat is in the department of the Jura-
She was dying with consumption and
became deeply impressed with Flam-
marion's accounts of his scientific
flights to sidereal regions. She became
imbued with his theory Of the plurality
OF the inhabitable worlds. This en-
abled her to await the inevita BILE end
of her disease with calm resignation.
perhaps with the hope that death
might only prove a translation to Mars
or some other planet of the celestial
world.
In due time Flammarion's visit came
to an end. He returned to his observa-
tory and forgot in the absorption of his
hostess ct the chateau among the
mountains of FJura. Some time ago a
package arrived at the observatory. &C.

envelope. The packet and letter were
received by Mime. Flammarion, who, on
examining the contents, found that the
package contained a large piece Of
white skin, very thick and cold TO the
touch The letter, which was in French,
read as follows:

OF one who bore q strange love for yea She

CARDINAL VANUTELlI

Indications Arc That He VIII BE Pope
Leo's Successor.
"VanuteN goes TO Bologna a cardinal
and viii return a pope" These are the
significant words Pope Leo XIII. Is re-
ported to have uttered In speaking
of Cardinal SeTafno Vanutelli, whom
he recently nominated to be archbishop
of Bologna. The pope's reported state
ment is practically verified by his letter
to the people Of Bologna in which he
declares that in nominating Vanuteli
to be archbishop he obeyed divine in
spiration. Eminent Catholics regard
the pope's utterance as equivalent to
the designation of Vanuteli as his sue
cessor as head of the Roman Catholic
church, but the sacred college will. of
course, choose a new pope by ballot
when the present pontiff dies

physique, great magnetism and unusual

1t is chiefly in the forests of South

1t seems curious that, whereas these

kinds that are useful in any way to

Vanilla is an orchid, which in the
West Indies creeps over trees and walls

somewhat resembling arrowroot or
sage, is obtained from the tubers Of a
variety that grows in Turkey and Per-

Judge Jackson's present position as
circuit judge insured him 5000 year
for life. He has said that he was not
consulted about his promotion, but
that. Of course, he would resign his seat

He is of medium height and stout.
His eyes are clear blue-gray. His face

A southern California newspaper

as follows: THE child was the first
Dutch infant born in the San Luis val
lev. The notice is written by Dane,
put in type by Mormon, the proof is
read by an American, the type placed
in the form by German and the pa
per is printed by . Mexican. This af-

man endeavors to force his opponent to
lose his balance 80 as 70 be obliged to
move one Of his feet. This constitutes
throw.
A good throw, If quickly done, is to
push your opponents hand against his
side, and then push hard and quick and
make him lift or slide his forward foot.
To do this well it is necessary 10 stoop
. little. Another way is to turn about
quickly toward your left side, II using
your right, raise your opponents hand
so thek it is over your right shoulder
then lean forward and pull hard. This
can be used by short man better than
by one of larger size.
The second cut shows a very ordinary
throw. The opponents arm is faced
backward and drawn out to the side di-
rectly away from him, so as to mako
him lose his balance. Still another
throw can be made by pulling back
ward and to one side, so that your hand
comes directly in front of the body;
then push 1t away outwardly.
The best position TO take is the one
shown In the first cut. The forward
foot is placed against that Of your an
tagonist and the rear foot about thirty
inches removed from and at right an
giles to the forward foot Both knees
should be bent.
The rules OF hand wrestling are as
follows: The man moving his foot or
touching his hand or any part Of his
body to the floor, so as to get a better
base. is thrown. Turning ON one toe,
so as to reach further, is allowed Nov

either to drag is throw. In all cases
the throw must be made with the hand
Pushing with head. elbow, shoulder or
side is strictly forbidden. The beauty
of the sport Is that it requires no con-
venienoes. 1t can be enjoyed with an
ordinary street dress on, and mat is
not required.
