ployed at the Patent Fuel works, Sunder-

Humane society to have been during the
course Of last year 'the bravest man in
England" and was recently prescr'cl

daring deed was performed IN March -.
1900. when q man named Mcleod WIS
~overpowered by the fumes in an empty
still at the works referred to. i col
league en- going to his rescue was alsr
o~verpowered. and the same fate befell an
other nan who b-avely attempted to ef-
feet d double rescue. Allen. with in
domitable pluck. insisted on being low
cred into the still. and eventually was
successful in bringing out all three men,
one at a time. Allen was presented with
the silver medal. but the society recently
decided that the act was tbs brayest deed
OF 1900. and therefore awarded him the
gold medal.

On March = Pope Leo XIII. who wa,
born in 1910. entered upon his ninety
second year. OF the 262 occupants Of tn
chair of St. Peter. though there are a:
least a score of well authenticated octo
genarians, he is the only nonagenarian OF
that number. Though he has broken the
record in point of years Of life. it seems
an impossibility that he should break it III
length of office. for his immediate prede
cessor. Pho Mono. reigned for over one
and thirty years. and the present pope
has something like eight years before be
will have been supreme pontif as long as
that. A c~entenarian pope would indeed
be a wonder Of the world.
The Thirteen club might claim the pope
for one of themselves. When he was
elected, men not SO much past Tidile age
now can remember how some OF the su-
perstitious faithful begged of him not to
be the thirteenth Leo. During the last
century Of the seven popes four were
Plus by title. two Leo and one Gregory,
and it was semioficially announced that
when Cardinal Pecci was chosen pope in
1873 he was to become Gregory XVII.
But his holiness deied augury and styled
himself Leo XIII.-London Chronicle.
