The Pope as a Mountaineer.

The present pope in his younger days was an ardent Alpine climber. A mon- ument is now being erected at Pietras- tornina, in the extreme corner of the Parthenian district, as reminder of his exploits as mountain tourist. In 1s44 Gioachimo Pecci was at this place to meet a fellow prelate. The ruins of the robber castle, that of the prince of Storno, which, according to the tra- ditions of time and place, no man had ascended for many decades, aroused the ambition of Bishop Pecci. For the sum of twenty paoli he secured the loan of shepherds suit, and, rigged out in this style, he managed to reach what seemed to be an inaccessible height of two hundred and fifty meters. Pecci was at that time an apostolic legate. The monument commentaries the anniversary of these exploits.

The decree was enforced by the chief of police of Jeremie, who only gave the suspected conspirator twenty-four hours to de- part.

BICYCLISTS HAVE RIGHTS.

 Frightened by Their Wheels.


 Frightened by Their Wheels. ST. PAUL, Minn., Oct. 30.-The su- preme court of Minnesota today ren- dered decision of decided interest to bicycIists all over the country.
 A few months ago N. A. Thompson was driving along Minnesota county road and met W. M. Dodge on bicycle. Thompson's horse saw the bicycle, ran away, smashed the buggy to splinters and injured MT. Thompson. The latter brought suit for heavy damages, but the supreme court decided in favor of the bicyclist. Judge Buck says in his decision:
 Bicycles are vehicles -lsed very extensively for convenience, recre- ation, pleasure and business, and the riding of them upon the public highway in the ordinary manner, as is now done, is neither un- lawful nor prohibited, and they cannot be banished because they are not an- cient vehicles and they were not used in the Garden of Eden by Adam and EveU

Cost of Feeding 8 Cow.

The cost of feeding COW has now come down to $l6 per year. This low cost has been made by one of the most successful dairymen of Ohio, whose income from each COW is never less than $60 a year. This low cost of feeding is due to the silo, and the high value of the product of the cows is due to liberal, good man agement and the high quality of the product And it is generally the case that the man who succeeds in making avaluable product is the most econom- ical in his business management-he makes at both ends, in fact.

Mountain. Sickness.

M, Regnard is a French savant who has
been investigating the causes OF mountain
sickness. Ee took two normal fowls, in
default of willing Alpists, and put them
under vacuum pump, with a diminution
OF pressure corresponding to an altitude of
10000 feet. One of the fowls was allowed
tn take its ease; the other Ind to turn
sort of squirrel cage. The one that was
exorting itself speedily showed signs of
SICKNESS while tho other remained unaf.
fccted When tfe vacuum was increased
TO point corresponding with harometric
pressure atpi 900 feet, both the fowls gave
out and resigned themselves to die The
idle one, however was very shortly TO
stored on being release I, whereas the other
went through a aprotractcd and uncomfort-
able illness. The inference is that noun
tain sickness IL as much due TO fatigue
and wear of tissue as to rarity of the at

could be applied to the Himalayas for
instance, mountaineering would be de-
prived Of one of its most unpleasant fea-
lures. Pail Mall Gazette.

AMERICAN BEEF.
Live Stock Probably to be
Exported to Switzerland.
By The Associated Press.


WASHINGTON, Sept. IA movement
Tor the importation OF American cattle

consul at Zurich. Not long ago, Mr.. Ger

Zurich public library. The article was
brought TO the attention OF the Bauern

TO replenish the stables OF the
farmers who are badly in need OF
such stock, Negotiations are under way
which the consul believes will res ult in a
committee being sent TO America to in
vestigate, and II found practicable, to puf-
chase young cattle for shipment to
Switzerland.
Consul German has sent to the depart
ment an extract from an article recently
published in a Hamburg live stock jour
nal, descriptive of the arrival of the steam
ship Prussia from New York, July 81,
with $40 head Of live beeves and the car
casses OF $50 shipped in quarters. Several
shipme nts OF live beeves had been
madea few years before but for some
cause was not continued. As to the success
OF the Prussia's trip The Hamburg Journal
states, the question OF importing live
American beef cattle as well as dressed
beef has reached new impetus. The Ham
burg Journal says: II is to be expected that
the German agrarians will oppose these
importations, but 1t will meet with the
approval of the consumers and allow TIE
poorer classes to eat meat, which at pres
ent, Is beyond their reach.
II is to'be hoped that these importations

PRISONERS IN MAROCCO.
How They Fare In That Land OF Almost
Incredible HarharifY

When the prisoner In Marocco hears the
doors Of the Jail close behind him, he
knows, II he be poor and without friends,
however trivial be the offense for which he
has been imprisoned, that he may possibly
not leave those walls alive. Tt is a matter
of Indifference TO tho authorities how
many are imprisoned for these wrctched
captives are no cause Of expense TO the
state. The prisoners have TO purchase
tLsir own bread and water and to pay
sIeir jailers Many man imprisoned for
some light debt, which he has long ago
discharged, is still detained bes.use he is
unable to meet the debt he has contracted
toward his jailers, and which his forced
captivity daily increases
In some prisons they are only permitted
10 receive a supply-of fresh water every
second day. What an amount of suffering
this means In an African climate and in
the fetid atmosphere Of dungeons such as
those TO be found In Marocco it is difficult
for European TO realize. In q Moorish
prison the captives sleep half naked on the
mud floor They are all huddled together
in one apartment without distinction us
regards crime or innocence, for many are
simply thrown into prison on account of
their reputed wealth or prosperity by
avaricious officials, who, by prolonged i'm
prisonment and sometimes by torture,
hope TO squeeze money out of them or dis
cover where they have hidden treasure.
OF an evening il Is not unusual for tho
prisoners TO be all bound together by
chain passing through an iron collar, which
each captive wears thus making it neces-
sary for all to rise or sit or lie down to-
gether. Open and uncleansed cesspools
within the prison add sometimes TO tho
indescribable horror and misery of the
place. There is no Inspection, no medical
attendance, no alleviation in sickness. II
q man is i'll and unable TO drag himself
to the hole in the wall through which the
bread and water Is passed, he must trust
TO the mercy of his fellows to supply him
with food. Only when death overtakes tho
poor miserable wretch do the guards be-
stir themselves in their own interest and
remove the tortured body, which at length
has found relief from it's overwhelming
sufferings. When a prisoner is an abso-
lutte pauper and unable TO purchase food,
the authorities give him daily a small
piece of coarse bread, provided by religious
endowment, sufficient to prolong the ago.

and four judges of the court of appeals,

for Governor, and the Fassett men this
morning are accordingly claiming that
the contest will greatly aid them. The
principal occupation of the delegates this
morning seemed to be chasing up the
Erie county delegation to get their de-
claration In favor OF some candidate. Up
to noon the Erie delegates had not sue
ceeded In focusing upon any one candi-
date.
No definite estimate of the actual
strength OF any of the gubernatorial can
didates can be made as yet, because less
