THE WAR WITH SPAIN.
Pope Leo's Keen Regreat that He
Could Not Prevent 1t.

Could Not Prevent 1t.
Pope Leo suffered great mental distress
from the circumstances incident to the
Spanish-American war, and for a time his
physical health was seriously menaced. He
took an active interest in the events imme-
diately preceding and following the out
break of the war, and he felt keenly the
misfortunes that cast gloom over the
court Of his favorite, Queen Maria Christina
of Spain. 1t grieved him to see the country
est root at war with the nation which
stands for the greatest advancement IN re-
hgious liberty and political freedom. 1t
was the Hottest ambition of the aged Pom
tiff, as its failure was his most crushing
regret, to prevent the war between the
United States and Spain. IL was his most
ardent wish to act as the arbitrator in the
differences which involved the two coun-
tries, and to be delegated to perform this
important task he put In motion all the
delicate though powerful machinery of the
Vatican as it has never been put in motion
before during the present century.
1t was necessary that he should address
himself to President Mckinley. but the task
was made exceedingly difficult for the rea-
son that the United States holds no diplo-
recognizes no right of interference dicta-
ton on the part of the Church of Rome.
Therefore he was Obliged to pass over the
services of Mgr. Martinelli and Cardinal
RampOlla, his right-hand men, and he chose
as his American mouthpiece Archbishop
Ireland as the most likely to gain the ear of
the President in an unofficial and informal
way Archbishop Ireland's devotion both to
his country and his church is so well known
that against him could not be charged an
attempt to further the cause of Rome at
the sacrifice of national patriotism. But
the obstinacy of Spain from the first de-
feated all chance of continuance of peace,
and the war began a natural conse-
quence of the international complications.
Then it was that Leo threw himself on his
knees before his altar and fervently prayed
that death might intervene to spare him the
pain of witnessing the bloodshed which he
knew would come

BURIAL OF A POPE.
Ceremonies and Incidents Between
His Death and the Conclaye.

The incidents connected with the burial
of Pope are no less striking than the
quaint ceremonies attendant on his death.
When the attendant physicians have certi-
fed that the Pope is dead and the Car
dinal Camerlengo has attested the fact, the
Apostolic Prothonotaries draw up the Act
of Death From the lifeless finger the cham
berlain draws the Fisherman's ring of
massive gold, worth a hundred golden
crowns, and, having broken il UP. divides
the fragments among the six masters of
ceremonies. The apostolic datary and his
secretaries carry all the other seals to the
Cardinal Camerlengo, who breaks them also
in the presence OF the auditor, the treas
tirer and the apostolic clerks. No other car
dinals may assist at this function.
The ontifical nephews and the cardinal
patron must quit the palace now. The Car
dinal Cameri-ngo takes possession in the
name of the apostolic chamber, making

decision is made. Grimes, a brake
man, who knows nothing at all about
a hotel, is engaged as all around man
to help ,'Snaggs." Teddy succeeds in
making it lively for them all when
they succeed in getting hold of the
will and discover there is a codicil,
which says that If the three nieces
want to divide the property equally
among themselves, they may do so
which they do. and no one has ever
discovered which of the three Keys is
the homliest.
