POPE LEO KITS LONG LIFE ENDED.|

while the other hand clutched his rosary and
crucifx
Though unconscious CLEANS of intelligence
seemed to flicker across the worn face. and the
shadow of a smile fell over the pallid lips when
the nephews passed and reverently knelt and
kissed the Pope's hand. No word spoken
The only sound which broke the silence of the
death room was the rattle of the arms of the
Noble Guard. who were stationed at every door
their care to take possession of the apartments
and guard the body OF the Pope
MANY GATHERED AT THE BEDSIDE.
The final scene in the death chamber was
profoundly impressive. The Pope's death hav-
ing been expected since noon, his deathbed was
surrounded by practically all the members of
the Sacred College now in Rome. and the whole
Papal Court. while the Pontiff's nephews re-
mained in the Papal library until they received
word from the doctors which announced that
his last breath was near. Then they moved
silently within the death chamber. some stand
ing some kneeling, all awaiting the moment
of dissolution
In the ante-chamber had assembled the high
ecclesiastics. members of the diplomatic corps
and representatives of the Papal aristocracy.
Profound silence reigned in the Pope's bed
room broken only by the doctors rising to rem
der their patient more comfortable. by the sobs
of the ever faithful valet. Pho Centra. the
murmured prayers of Monsignor Pifferi the
PapaI confessor. himself eighty -four years old,
who had to be assisted to the bedside Softly ne
recited the prayers for the dying. the Pontif at
one moment appearing to follow them as if con-
scious of what was taking place. Then the
dying Pope murmured something to himself in
which those bending over him heard the words
Father and Mother"
Dr. Lapponi who almost constantly had his
fingers on the Popes pulse. felt It grow grad
ually weaker and weaker and at the same time
the Portiff's extremities began to get cold. his
lips became blue. his eyes sank more deeply
into the head his breathing became even more
difficult, and there were strange ratings IN
his throat.

EN-SENATOR BLAIR.

Ex-Senator Henry W. Blair says he expects to live to be a hundred years old. At least that is the remark he made to a friend in Washington last week when he was congratulated upon his good physical appearance. Said he, ''The great and good man who has just been elected to succeed Leo XIII. and myself are both the same age. 6S, and We may both attain the years of his illustrious predecessor. In fact. people are beginning to revise their ideas as to what constitutes an old man. Clear ly there can be no exact limit set, for though some misguided ones might put me in the category because l am Verg- ing upon three score and ten 1 am per fectly aware of my yCuthfulness. It won't be so very long, indeed, with q higher civilization and improved s2ni- tary methods. that the fact of man living for d century will cease to be at all remarkable We wonder what you were aiming at. Henry. Possibly you may make one or the other of the hold CTS of l.. s. senatOrships of our state quake for fear you might take it from him since you have such a span of years to do it in, and one could about as well bear being killed as scared to death, you knOW.-L&coNia (N.

THE INDIAN BE.T FAD.

Every second woman you meet these days is wearing q belt or q stock or fob or something or other made of woV cA bH0ds. l think they call the things .*22Che bead work, but fleur- lis pat telns and Greek key borders were never made by Apache fingers. nor thought of by Apache brains. l met q woman the other day who was wearing a belt of greens end blues 2nG reds in a fear fully and wonderfully wabbly pattern. and when 1 asked her where on earth she got the thing she told me with pride that her husband made it.
 You know. Harry's been on the verge of nervous prostration for months.' said she. but hes better now, and this belt is what cured him. ] know It isn't pretty, but I'd rather have it than a girdle of gold. The poor man had business on the brain. He simply couldn't think of another thing day or night, and when the doctor ordered him to go away for change he kept righi on thinking of business and getting harder and harder to live with. He was simply lost with nothing to do while we were away, so one day in des- peration 1 bought a little loom and set him to work making a bead belt. He fused fearfully at first. and as he has never handled anything smaller than q golf club, I had to thread his needle for him. It was too funny to see him sitting by the hour saying over to him. self, One green bead. three blues, two reds. four blacks, two greens, four blues, one red, thee blacks across the pattern row after TOW. It was so ab- sorbing he couldn't think of anything else while he was at it, and after he got over thinking it silly he really en- jcyed it. He wouldn't want the other men to know it for farm, but string ing the beads cured him, and l think that if men U'-uld only learn to do a little fancy work now and then, to take their minds off business. there would n't Ec nearly so much work for the doc tors, Wa shington Post.

THE PUZZLE
students

Yea. man giveth up the ghost, and where is he?''-Job, xiv:10. With pended head and wondering eye We search and ponder long and deep: We wonder why we live and die If at the end we wake or sleep; If it shall be silence vast. Or dulcet sounds shall come to cheer: If it be tilst or it be last: And whether we should flout or fear. That road beyond the End of Day Does it to further toiling call? Or is it then happy way? Or is there any road at all? The stars laugh at us from the sky When Night is grave and still and
 wide, Ana we repeat our "Whence?" and
 Why"
 And seek to know what they may
 hide. So, we will muse and wonder on, And cnildishly our doubts recite:' ''Is il the coming of the Dawn, Or but the closing of the Night?'' Comes Death one day to make us see. To smooth the wrinkled. breeding

 Our government has treated Aguinal dc with the greatest consideration and Kindness ever since his capture, but as that was simply good policy there is no warrant for supposing that bribery en- tered into the agreement under which ASuinaldo has been loyal, peaceable and even patrCtic. If il shall appear that he has retained the confidence of the F.ltpinos and is influential among them. it might be good policy to recog- nize him in such way as other promi nent and educated FilipinOs have been recognized. There is no question that Aguinaldo is a young man of ability, possessing many accomplishment and of great energy. He could be exceed ingly useful in developing the resources and elevating the people, if events shah also prove that he Is thoroughly relia ble ard loyal.-Wilkes-Ba Record.

AGUINALDO TALKS SENSE.

Gen. Aguinaldo has been entirely out of sight since his capture and has In every way oeGn behaving himself in a commendable way. His promise to- be loyal to the government of the Unites States and respect it's authority in the Philippine archipelago has been faith fully kept. His recent letter, addressed to the Fiiipinos. is in line with his praiseworthy conduct ever since he was captured by General Funston and held as a prisoner of war. In the letter re- ferred to he earnestly urges the Filfpi- nos to abandon their propensity for gambling, to advance their methods of agriculture. and to improve to the full est extent the educational advantages the United States government has so generously provided for them without cost. According to official reports a great many Filipinos have been doing precisely what Aguinaldo counsels and it is hoped that many more will be in fiuenced by lis advice, which is cer- tainly greatly to his credit.
 Gen. Agunaldo held out against the sovereignty of the United States with a tenacity that could scarcely be sur passed and was the inspiring cause of the loss of many lives, as well as the expenditure of many millions of dol lars. Immediately after his capture hs declared his intention to submit to the inevitable and advise his former insur- gent followers to yield to the authority of the United States. It has frequently been insinuated, rather than directly charged. that after his capture Agui- naldo was induced to cooperate with

THE MAN WHO DOES THINGS.

 suits are thing that count. There is a look Of solidity about such q man that impresses itself upon other and he can be picked out anywhere in any crowd. Failure is a word not in his vocabulary. anu discoura cement he knows nothing about. Such a man makes opportuni- ties because they await him. Oppor- tunities are not scarce. they are mere plentiful now than ever before in the history of the country. He works with out looking at the clock. Men who do things never consult the time. En-
 ployes who are always looking at the dial of a clock will never be anything else but employees. The man who does things has 3 purpose. LOoseness Of thought and scattering of purpose mark the man who never does anything. The public soon learns to distinguish one from the other. The man who does

SOME GOOD SHORT STORIES.

It was Joseph Folk. the young dis trict attorney of St. Louis county, who brought the St, Louis boodlers to jus tice. Talking of il, MT. Folk said to q reOorter:
 There is something small and little about rcbbing taxpayers. robbing wid- cws and orphans and all manner of poor folk. He is a mean man who com mits this cTime-as mean as Cne l saw once on Mississippi steamer.

WINDSOR TO BE CATLESS
Hing Edward Shares Andrew Car
 nesie's Dislike for Feline Species

Windsor castle has been cleared of cats by order of the king, says a Lon don correspondent. For years his majesty has shown q dislike. amount
 ing almost 10 q superstition, for the presence of the feline species. but he tolerated them at Windsor because his mother always had two favorite ca-s about her. The crisis came when Jack his faVorite dog, was poisoned in Dub lin on his recent tour in Ireland. It ap- pears that the poison which ended Jacks" distinguished career was put down for the purpose of ridding the lord lieutcnant's residence of an army of cats that had infested il. Jack. :" like his royal master, disliked cats. and il was in an effort to cXterminate then that he came to his sad end. His maj esty gave instructions that in future no eat must be seen about any of tho royal apartments. and if thay are to b, tolerated at :.Il they must confine them selves to more modest quarters.
 Andrew Carnegie suffers from a sim ilar superstition. In the intervals e his absence from Skibo castle cats ac- cumulute. but as soon as it becomes known that he is about to put in an appearance, the servants take steps t0 cledr hem out. and tfC steward t9Ee4 drastic measures to remove them. o;' onc occasion, while staying at his f~;E- crite rotel in LonGcn, he espied T cat :ecllni- 7 a' his feet at the breakfast table. and before the, was time 10 rut the beast cut Carnegie leI' the rel .ain- der pf Tis meal and quilted the hotei. and he has never staved there since.

EDITOR DEMANDS
 PAY FROM PRIEST
A NEWSPAPER PROPRIETOR IN ROME CLAIMS HE WAS PROM AGAINST IMPEACHMENT

Rome. December 15.-Editor Spadoni of the Rome Herald caused a summons to be issued today against Father Martin, general of the Society of Jesus, for the purpose of obtaining compensation, with costs, alleged to be due the editor for work done by agreement with Father Martin in the propaganda against the Americanization of the Catholic church in the United States.
 The editor says the father promised to obtain from Pope Leo an encyclical con demnng the Amercanism in the church and recalling Archbishop Ireland to due obedience to the holy see, while at the same time Spadoni was to arouse public opinion through the paper which he then published, and which was called the True Catholic American, issued in both English and Italian.
 Beginning in February. 1898, several copies of this paper were sent to the United States. Spadoni asserts that ow- ing to his writings and the influence of his paper, Amercapism in the church had disappeared to a considerable extent, and he called for the alleged promised compensation, not receiving which, he had recourse to the law courts.
 The case will be argued December IS. Father Martin authorizes the Associated Press to say that Editor Spadons allega- ton is false. and that the case is one of blackmail He said he would not appear in court, but would leave the matter al- together in the hands of his lawyers.
