brance OF many of the oldtime freaks
OF the wild west OF those days and a
real old pioneer style of telling them.
Some years ago he was around with
those who saw the sights and one of
the number was "Artemus Ward"
(Charles II. Browne), who was then lee

provoking two-hour tale OF 'Babes in

gular, red-haired son Of the happy
muse. and when he came to Denver tfre

lecture and bestowed upon him every

POPE LEO'S RICHES.
Estimated at $4,000, ,OOO-Owns q
Diamond Valued at $1,000, 900.

Pope Leo XIII is said to have accum-
ulated more wealth during his pontifi-
cate than any OF his predecessors In the
chair OF st. Peter. Plus TX collected
slo,00OO0c. and that was looked upon
as a large sum. But Leo is said to
have acquired twice as much for the
Vatican. The greater part OF the money
Is said to be deposited in the Bank OF
England, and the remainder rests in va
rlous other European banks. 1t is said
that the Holy See is now free from
debt, the few obligations remaining al
the death OF Plus TX. having been set
tied by Leo. The annual budget OF the
Vatican is said to show yearly sur
plus.
How much of the money collected by
Leo. XIII. was given to him for his per-
sonal benefit and how much for the
Holy See is not known. The value of
personal presents made TO him since he
came to the Papal throne is said how
ever, to exceed $4,000 600, and the OBJ
jects are so numerous as to constitute
a collection worthy TO be placed I'm a
museum. Plus TX. received possibly as
many, but he is said To have given
them away as rapidly as he received
them, and for that reason he never ac-
cumulated SO many as are owned by
Leo XIII. who kept all his.
Some idea of the value Of them may
be gathered from the fact that Presi-
dent Kruger gave him diamond worth
s4,000,000. Such gifts are.f OF course.

tel, Fortress Monroe, Tuesday Miss Flor
cree K. Brady of st. Louis, who was in
bathing about noon and remained in the
water for some time, suddenly became ex-
hausted. Finding herself in deep water
she lost her presence of mind and went
under DIR. Walker was at the time lying
on the life raft further out. Through the
cries for help from Miss Brady and the
shouts of the people on shore his attention
was directed to the drowning woman.
Without hesitation he plunged in, went to
her rescue and succeeded in reaching her
as she was sinking the second time. He
held her head above the surface of the
water until Mr.. J. c. Leonard of the hotel
life-saving service came to their assistance
and lifted both from their dangerous sur
roundings. The rescuer and rescued were
in an utterly exhausted condition when
they reached the hotel. Miss Brady re-
ceived no further injury than a severe
shock, and she Immediately improved. Her
