YANKEE MODES
 SAW HIS HOLINESS
Gave Three Cheers and a Tiger For the Pope-A Great
 Event.

Washington, December 31. - The Navy Department has received a report of trip taken by Ensign Edward McCauley, Jr., attached to the United States ship Dixie. together with five warrant officers and 1Ol petty officers and men of that vessel from Naples to Rome early in December when the Dixie was cruising down the Mediter- ranean.
 The party was formed and conducted as a pilgrimage to the city of Rome during the jubilee year, and such the men were housed and cared for most hospitably. The party was controlled as a military forIna- ton and carried the national flag at the head of the column, which latter, says Ensign McCauley. elicited considerable en- thusiasm and show of patriotism on the part of resident and tourist Americans. As a fitting climax to their stay in the city the men obtained an audience of the Pope, which Ensign McCauley describes as fol- lows:
 We marched through the Vatican into St. Peters and were assigned to a palace immediately fronting and on the right or the altar. with an unimpeded view Of the surroundings and the ceremonies distinct Each one was required to have the usual ticket
 The Pope was carried in in state. ac- conpanied by the noble and papal guards and retinue of household chamberlains priests of the church and choristers The exclamation, greeting and applause was tremendous and several times during the procession our men gave three cheers and tiger for the holy fs sther.. The Pope in passing us rose in his shair as he gave the benediction.
 .Aft.r a short service ,h4po, ...,. was placed for the prescntat h Of the few who were allowed the honor approach ing h.m, and the American 0aa cers w.re called up immediately folloEinEF the bishops.

not reach the disease. An old and expert

ment of CATARRH. has at last perfected a
