comings and goings of scores Of

committee on ways and means, while
the Mckinley tariff bill was being

high protection in the bill. The

Like their nomination papers, the

One statement was made for all of
them upon two typewriter pages, and

showed the proportion of the whole
amount borne by each candidate. There
was an excess of dollar or two as

In all matters of politics I have

be done by united action and not by

his advice to his son.

ONLY A FEW.

Of the multitudes of people

extent of some disease. For

This may happen suddenly or
slowly, but the result is the
same. The number of people
who are thus afflicted and hand

Emancipation Of Woman /!

Within the last few months there
have appeared in the daily papers
throughout the country numerous ac-
counts of young women resenting In
suits of the opposite sex in masculine
style that is to be highly commended.
Women are beginning to realize their
own powers. They are beginning to
know themselves more thoroughly.
They are drifting fast from the weak
ness and delicate senstiveness which
in the past was supposed to have been
a part of their nature.
The Athletic woman has now come to
the fore. She is popular. She is adj
mired and sought after by the more
desirable marriageable men. Men are
beginning to realize that marriage
means the building of home, and
when they become thus seriously in
clined, and understand that In selecting
wife they are also selecting the moth
er Of their children, strength and health
and other womanly characteristics as
sumo vast importance.
The physical culture wave that is
now sweeping America is beginning to
fan Hawaii. 1t will teach women the
true value of the powers they should
possess. Physical culture in the form
of athletics and gymnastics, will soon
enable her to closely approach her

pope came back to consciousness from
a sleep which DR.. Lapponi had induced

Pains in Chest and Shoulders.
Pope Leo awoke wet with perspira-
tlon, feeble to the extreme, and his
voice hardly audible The fits of
coughing had brought pains in his
chest and shoulders and, thinking his
end was near, he said to DR.. Laponi:
Tell me when the time really comes"
The doctor assured his holiness that
he believed the danger of his imme-
date death was aveTted for the night
and for today.
These seemingly last moments of
Pope Leo are full Of solemnity. Per-
haps his last hours would be less
melancholy and sad if the august sui
feIer were less conscious of the cir
cumstances and his mind less clear
as to the duration of time remaining
to him before he enters eternity. AL
though his physical powers are at the
lowest ebb and his breathing becomes
more labored, the popes mind is clear,
as is manifested to all around him by
his bright, expressive eyes and the
few words he now and then succeeds
in uttering. The scene is so touching
that those present can scarce restrain
their tears.
Takes Some Nourshment.
The official bulletin issued at 6
o'clock this morning states that the
pope rested peacefully during the
night and took some nourishment.
His holiness will perhaps live through
the day.
The pope took nourishment four
times during the night. His pulse
shows a slight improvement. At $50

for an armchair
At 6:45 bulletin says the condition
Of the pope is stationary. After twice
taking raw egg and little brandy he
went to sleep.
In an interview, DR.. Laponi, the
pope's physician, said there is no
consoling news. The patients pulse
is imperceptible. and, although he may
live for several days, there is hardly
any hope Of his recovery.
It is now thought certain that the
