the Raphael Loggia, tears fell from the
cheeks of several Of the pilgrims, and one
could not refrain from crying out: rake
care of yourself, your holiness, for our
sakes who love you so much as Well as
for your own"
The pope has been over-exertlng nm
self to such an extent that his naturally
strong constitution was unable to pear the
strain put upon it by the coronation cere-
monies Such has been the effect upon
his nerves that he has been unable to
sleep for whole nights while numerous
receptions yesterday made matters worse.
Last night his holiness was very much
agitated but this morning he still insisted
upon admitting to hear his mass all
Venetians who had journeyed to Rome
purposely to attend the coronation. They
numbered about 500.
Tainted In chaplaln's Arms.
When the mass began in the Pauline
chapel the air was vitiated with the tenn
perature above 80 degrees. Pope Plus
was seen to grow paler and paler, finally
| throwing out his hand as tho seeking sup
| port. He would have fallen had not Mgr
Brossan, his private chaplain, been quick
| to catch him.
1t Is impossible to describe the con-
| fusion and alarm among the worshipers
| while the pope lay motionless and uncon-
| sclous with his eyes closed. Fortunately
among the Ventians present was DR.
| Davenzia, who for years has been the
popes attending physician at Venice, bu
who had been called only once during tina
time DR.. Davenzia gave the pontiff i'm
mediate assistance, while messengers
| telephoned FOR DR.. Lapponi. The lattel
rushed t. the vatican but did not arrive
until the pope had been restored.
The pope, after taking some medicine t.
calm his heart and nerves, was able tt
lunch, afterwards taking a sleep, which
lasted two hours and a half. On awaken
| ing he felt much refreshed.
! Received American Priest.
The pope yesterday granted an audienc,
| to a representative from the archdiocese
Of Cincinnati, who submitted the Peter!
pence collected by Archbishop Elder. Or
| behalf of the American clergy he ex
pressed to his holiness a desire that tn,
clergy be withdrawn from the govern
ment Of the congregation of the propa
| ganda and be made directly subject to TIL
{. pope, on the ground that the Uni.et
/ States. having no state religion, shouIt
not be classed with England, which 1

1,... Had FatlguIng Day.
/ Plus X had another fatiguing day, a
he received all the delegations which ha
come to Rome to attend the coronatio
ceremonies. He accorded lengthy audi
ence to about 800 from Venice, receivin
them in the Clementine hall. The ponti
allowed all the members Of the delegatio
to kiss his hand and called by name thos
whom he knew just as he had when h
met them in Venice. He said to them:
Il am poor mortal, too weak for tn
heavy cross which God has given me
But His will be done. I will carry it a
best I can, and you must all pray to on
Lord to give me the necessary strength
His old Venetian friends agree that tn
pope looks ten years old than he did be
fore his election, but that his affabl
manner had not changed.
