solemn communion in the evening, say

At IL o'clock that night the last sac
rament was administered by the
Grand ~Penitentiary, Cardinal Serafino
Vanutelli, in the presence of the Pom
tifical family. After the sacrament the
Pope passed an almost sleepless night,
being kept alive by stimulants con-
stantly administered. From that time
on there was no hope of his recovery,
except during a brief rally on Wednes-
day, July 8. At various times extreme
JUNCTION was repeated.
Twice during the week after he was
taken i'll the patient was operated on
by DR.. Mazzoni for extraction of serum
from the lung cavity. Each time he
obtained great relief. Besides DR.. MAJ
zoini, DIR. Rossoni was called in to as
sist the regular physician, DIR. Lap
poni.
The second Sunday of his illness
passed ~favorably, but hopes were
hardly entertained Of his recovery.
Twenty-four hours later the august
patient lapsed into semi-consciousness,
and his condition grew more serious
than it had been at any time since he
was stricken. From then on hope fluc-
tuated until the end came.

More women rhan Mem.

The excess Of women over men grao.
ually rose during the last century, but
no in proportion to the increase of the
population. There are now slightly
over a million more women than men
in the country, says London Tit-Bits.
More male than female children are
born, and up to fourteen or fifteen
years of age there are more boys than
girls, but beyond that age women are
in the majority. In Bournemouth, out
of a population Of 1900, 10000 are
women.

Bears Suicide,

An old black bear kept in a zoo at
Dallas, Tex, became violent a few
days ago and tried to tear itself to
pieces and beat its brains out against
the walls and bars of its den. The ami
NAL had refused to eat for two months.
Finally it jumped into the water tank
and held its head under until drowned.
1t was a clear case Of suicide. About
two years ago the bear killed its cubs
and devoured them. A year later ii
drowned its mate in the tank.-Chicago

Signs of Life in HENS Eggs.

An electrical test, at first proposed
as a means of determining whether
life is extinct, has been used to show
when life begins. No reaction is pro-
duced if the matter is l~ifeless. Apply
ing this method to hens eggs, Angus
tus Waller has found that signs of life
begin in twenty-four to sixty-two hours
after the beginning of incubation, and
that only when development fails or is
arrested does the reaction continue to
be absent.

The famous New York capitalist,

with the tinanciers who believe that
the nation has reached its zenith OF
prosperity, and that the fiscal year
just ended marks the highest tide of

smaller ones that must necessarily be
overlooked, impress one with the mag
