CARDINAL PARocCHI is DEAD
Death Removes PreIRte Considered to
Re the Most Likely Successor
TO Pope Leo.

ROME. Jan. 15.-Cardinal Lucido Mary
Paroechi. subdean OF the sacred college and
vice chancellor OF the Catholic church died
today OF heart disease. He was born in
1888, was OF Italian nationality and was
created a cardinal in 1877.
The death Of Cardinal Paroechi removes
one OF the prelates considered to be the
most likely to succeed Pope Leo. There
was always considerable friction between
the pope and Cardinal Paroechi on this ac-
count, and IL led to the unprecedented step
OF the pontif1 in removing the cardinal from
the post OF vicar OF Rome because, IT is
thought. he too openly posed as the future
pope.
Nevertheless. the pope was deeply affected
by Cardinal Parocchi's death. He knelt In
prayer and exclaimed, ''These frequent
deaths have made me feel quite an old
man"

When England VIII Be Coal Hungry

England has just been informed by
the royal commission on coal supply
that she may expect coal famine IN
the year I045-which is not SO Tar OFT
when you come to think of it.
The coal in the tight little island
will not be by any means exhausted III
Io45, but all of it which lies at less
depth than 1000 feet will have been
taken from the earth and burned up.
1t is estimated that all OF Englanfs
coal will have been transformed into
heat and smoke by the end OF period
of from $50 to 800 years. Alter that
time, il coal is still to be used as fuel,
it will have to be brought from the
United States or China. Nobody
knows how large the coal deposits OF
China really are, but they are known
to be immense.
The royal commission estimates that
even if the expectation OF coal from
England should be prohibited by law.
it would only delay the using up OF
the natural coal supply Tor about fifty
years beyond the time when the sup
ply will be exhausted anyway.
However, ESQ years is long look
ahead, and some other fuel may appear
by that time which will make the burn
ing OF coal as old-fashioned as the
burning OF wood is now.

"CALLEO" ON STRAIGHT FLUSH
And Gen. Goblin Had No Use for Such
Poker PLAYER.

Gen. Goblin, the commander of the
Pennsylvania National Guard, showed
hi3 contempt for poor poker playing
in q striking manner during the recent
coal strike, when he was at Wilkes
barre in charge of the states military
forces.
One night poker game was on be-
tween several Philadelphia newspaper
men, one Of whom was young fellow
on whom they wished to play a Joke.
Finally, IN a spirit of fun, stacked
hands were dealt, so that three of tho
players, among whom was the young
fellow, got straight Pushes Of equal
value. After tho betting passed around
twice, the young fellow called and
then, when he saw the cards. anxious
!y questioned as to which flush won
on color.
The next morning tho young fellow
went to see the General for some
news, but the story Of the poker game
ha4 got there before him. When the
young fellows name was sent in he
heard Gen Goblin roar from inside;
Put tho fool cut! | never will
even receive man who knows so lit
tie that he will call on a straight

The New Stamp

The new 2-cent stamp will probably
not feel especially stuck up after the
usual abuse has been heapcd upon it.
The fact is, life is not worth living for
an ordinary little postage stamp in
these days of clarifying good taste;
Some time perhaps designer will
arise who will discard pictures of ma
tional worthless and conhne himself
strictly to pure design, and the stamp
that he will produce will radiate will,
loneliness on an envelope of handmade
paper.
