what manner of martial man this
was. -Burleigh did not loudly boast
of his wealth and influence, but inn

ever since that run to Warriors Gap,
q change had come over Burleigh. He
talked more of mines and money and
showed less, and now, only yesterday.

him wholly to blame for Deans ar

have called q bonanza" but that in
the late sixties was locally known
as Shanghai" twenty-five thou

his money was tied up. Would Fol-
som go in with him, put up twelve

would do the rest? Folsom had been
bitten by two mines that yielded only
ratt1esnakes, and he couldn't be
lured. Then, said Burleigh, wouldn't
Folsom go on his note, SO that he
could borrow at the bank? Folsom
seldom went on anybody's note. It
was as bad as mining. He begged off,

LAUGHED DURING SERVICE.
Dublin Congregation Had a Merry
Time at the Ministers
HumOr.

Religious services in Ireland are not
always solemn, according to the state
ment of an English clergyman. 1.-THE
only time ever heard congregation
laugh unrestrainedly during the reg
ular services in cathedral" said he.
'swas back in the sos, when I was
resident of dear, dirty Dublin. On one
Sunday morning the archbishop of
Cork preached. He was a splendid
man, an Irishman to the backbone,
and possessed of as fine brogue as
ever distinguished son of Erin. His
congregation was made up of the very
essence of fashion in Dublin, which in
those days was one of the greatest So
cial centers in the world. Notorious
ly, people were living beyond their
means, for the income from the land
ed estates of Ireland had taken a big
tumble. But that made no difference,
and good dressing went as matter
of course, and was one of the smallest
of the extravagances. The archbishop
preached on the subject Of extrava-
gance, aud spoke particularly of over
dressing as prerequisite to attend
ance at church. His sermon was a bit
ter arraigament of the sin of debt and
the wickedness of setting the heart
on fashion and dress. He attacked
the overdressed women, and wound up
this particular reference this way:
".Now, supposin' every one Of ye-
every one, man and woman, should
stand up in this church, take off the
clothes We have not paid for, just
walkin' out with only the things on
your backs ye have paid fora pref
ty lookin' lot of scarecrows ye'd be-
"There was a pause until the real
significance of the suggestion had
percolated through the members of
his congregation, then some one snick-
cred. Everyone was picturing to him
and herself the real scene that would
occur should the archbishop's idea be
carried into effect, while wife looked
at husband and members of each fam
lily nudged one another. The ludi-
crous side was irresistible, and the
laugh was general"

the light, covered wagon sped swiftly
homeward. Beside the fair charioteer
sat young officer of the infantry who,
vastly rejoicing that Dean could not go,
had laughingly possessed himself of
the vacant place, and to him Miss Fol-
som had to talk. But they parted from
their escorts at the gate and fastened
within doors. Just as Elinor expected,
papa had not come home. It was near
ly six when she saw him striding slow
ly and thoughtfully up the road and
she met him at the gate.
'Tell me what has happened, daddy
was her quiet greeting, as she linked
her hands over his burly arm, and look
ing into her uplifted, thoughtful eyes,
so full of intelligence and deep affec-
ton, he bent and kissed her cheek.

best thing 1 can do. Come into the

dinals were in attendance upon this
notable conclave, yet SO universally
were the merits of Pecci recognized,
and so general was the demand that
he become head of the church, that not
a single vote was cast against him.
In the matter of dress, the venerable
pontiff is punctilious, his wardrobe
being one of great magnificence. For
ordinary wear he has white robe,
made in winter of fine cloth, in sum-
mer of moire silk. When he goes into
the garden he throws over this long
mantle of red cloth, which has Dor
der of gold embroidery. When dressed
for private ceremonies he wears a sur.
plice made of costly lace, and red
pelerine, of cloth in winter and OF
satin in summer. For great festivals
he first puts on the "falda," =
wide seamless coat of white satin,
around which is tied broad striped
sash of gold, red and white Above this
is a beautiful garment covered with
Jewels, and last comes a mantle OF
gold-embroidered velvet. On his feet
the pope always wears red velvet
shoes. In addition to his episcopal ring
the pope is fond of wearing other cost
" rings, often composed of single
stones of great beauty. He seldom
dons the pontifcal tiara, which is =
threefold golden crown, lined with
red, green and blue velvet, and COW
cred with priceless Jewels. For great
ceremonies his costume is so heavy
that it is impossible for him, at his
great age, to stand or walk. and he ia
carried in a chair. When he visits the
Vatican garden he is carried thither in
a sedan chair of an old-fashioned pat
tern.
Like almost every other human be-
ing the pope has a hobby-the writing
of poetry. Most of his verses are
written in Latin, and eminent critica
have pronounced them among tho
finest specimens of modern poetry.
Few of his productions are given to the
public, however; and only one volum.
of his poems has been printed sinca
his accession to the papacy.

QUESTION AND PROPHECY.

Maiden with the soft brown eyes.
Do life's songs outweigh its sighs7
Hast thou shrined Hfe's better part
In the chancels of thy heart?
Have life's sweetest, noblest psalms
Gained thee with their boons and balms?
In the rosary of years
Have the beads been pearly tears,
Or have sadder things than these
Caused the plants when life should please:
Let thy eyes their wells unrOu
That my glance may scan thy soul.
Tn their mystic depths see
Things that were and are to be:
Sorrow with its gruesome touch
Hath not married thy spirit much.
Yet thy path in coming days
Nay not pass through fowery ways.
Grid myself for ills of earth
Life hath means as well as mirth-
For each joy grief is born.
Dark night comes as oft as morn:
Be thou ready, for some years
Sow In toll to harvest tears.
Yet for thee the sun shall shine,
Ills touch lightly thee and thine:
Skies which arch in blue above
For thy eyes show stars of love:
Therefore be thou not afraid,
Lissome little brown-eyed maid
There await such sprites as thee
Ills no mortal maid may flee, 4
But heavens gold can gid the guile
Helpless to resist thy smile.
Maiden with the soft brown eyes,
Many joy before thee lies
II thou be but truly wise.

THE ROMAN PONTIFF.
Looks Forward to Living to the

Wants to Round Out . Quarter OF q

Half a Century OF His
Cardinalate.
Especial correspondence.I

DOPE LEO Kill, according to ca
bic message recently received
from Rome, has expressed to his
intimates the conviction that he would
live until late in the year 1908, when,
on December 10, he proposes to ceie-
CRATE the fiftieth anniversary of his
elevation to the cardinalate in man
ner BETTING so rare and distinguished
an event. From time to time the news
papers spread the report that the
venerable pontiff is at deaths door,
but from church dignitary who has
seen him several times within the past
decade it is learned that he seems to
be about as robust. now as he was ten
years ago.
Pope Leo is one Of the most remark
able-if not the most remarkable
men of our age. His character is a
rare combina ton of firmness and gen.
tleness, and with these virtues is COM
bined a brilliant mind. whose grand
thoughts have challenged the admira-
ton of thinking men of every creed.
Contemporary critics have dealt gen.
thy with the aged ruler of the church.
They have, almost without exception,
given him praise for honesty of pur-
pose and sincerity of intent: the most
notable exception being Marie Corelli,
who, in .'The Master Christian" draws
a picture of his holiness which de-
picts him as an old, old man governed
by senile prejudice and the advice of
self-seeking sycophants. Miss Corelli's
delineation of Leo's character is ridi-
culed by churchmen, who assert that
the pope is ruler of church in fact as
well as name, and that personal con-

was born March 2, 1910, at Carpineto,
in the Papal States. At the age of
eight he was placed in the Jesuit col
lege of Vitebo, where he remained six
years and distinguished himself for
ability and propriety of conduct. His
mother dying at the end of this time,
in 1924, his father took him to Rome,
and in November of that year placed
him in the celebrated Roman college.
Here his great talents and earnest APP
plication were strongly impressed
upon his instructors, who were de-
lighted when, at the age of Is, he took
the first prize in physico-chemistry.
Following this, he took complete
course in philosophy. receiving the

The colonel himself had paid brief

passed Folsom the colonel whispered:

away"
ssTen thousand dollars!" answered
the trader in reply. what do you

"That's what those boys are to run

For moment Folsom stood there
dumb. "Do you mean" he finally cried,

they're going-that it's money they're
