ARTIFICIAL VITALITY.

Kept ImpregBafcd with Oxygen.

Rome. July 6.--As the pope object
ed to having the oxygen inhaling APP
paratus continually under his nostrils.
DR.. Lapponi arranged to impregnate
the whole atmosphere of the room
with oxygen.
THAT is much better" said the
pontiff; before, felt as though
had lost my liberty"
Although DIR. Lapponi continually
recommends the patient not to speak,
and to pay no attention to what is
passing outside, the pope refuses to
abandon participation in what is 60
ing on. lie said, smiling, TO DIR. Lap
poni: 81 know you say this because
OF your affection for me, but either
my last day is rapidly approaching, in
which case must employ all the time
which is left to me so far as | can,
or else | snail recover, again post
poning the end. If this is the will OF
the Almighty, nothing can change
it,
The pope wished his armchair TO
be carried near his writing table, and
then to the window overlooking the
piazza Of st. Peter. Noticing many
people in carriages, the pope said:
''The piazza looks as it does when
am able 10 perform some public func-
ton"

1T Is A SOLEMN MOMENT.
The Words of n Brooklyn Profest-

New York, July 6.--Rev. Dean Bah
bitt. rector OF the Brooklyn Protest
ant Episcopal Church of the Ephipary,
in the course of his sermon said:
81 am informed that the great pom
tiff of Rome is passing away. 1t is a
solemn moment in the history OF the
world and of Christendom. As Pro-
testant who values his Professionalism,
ii is not uniting that / should ex-
press, nevertheless, my sympathy for
the Roman Catholic church in its loss
OF a great prelate, leader, guide and
councillor, whose effect on all Chris
tendon has been profound"
The only persons allowed in the
pope's bedroom Monday morning, be-
sides the doctors and attendants, were
Cardinal Rampolla, Monsignor Bisleti,
the magter of the pontifical chambers,
and Brig-Gen. Count Camille Pecci, of
the Noble Guard. nephew of the
pope. The pope conversed for long
time with Count pecci, even rising
and walking about the room for few
minutes, leaning on his arm-Ths
pontiff on this occasion remarked:
wow, am ready to depart, hav-
ing settled all my affairs. I feel i
have done all in my power for the
good OF the church and OF humanity"

Terrlfle creosote ExplosIon.

While several Louisville & Nash
vile railroad boilermakers were re-
pairing boiler at the depot in Pas
cagoula last week sparks fell into a
nearby 500-barrel tank of ereosote,
setting it on fire. Before anything
could be done the flames spread to
the south side of the railroad. The
big plant there, with tanks holding
1000 barrels, went up with a ter
rifle explosion, scattering the flames
upon the piles of lumber nearby and
the railroad tracks, which imme-
diately caught fire. A freight en-
gine was sent to Scranton for hose
and when this came the fire was
soon placed under control.
The railroad tracks were COM
pletely demolished for seventy-fye
feet, stopping all traffic for twelve
hours. Fifteen cars of creosote on
the tracks and 1900 barrels of oil
miraculously escaped being explod-
ed.
The loss is estimated at 100000.
There was no insurance.

AN IMPORTANT APPOINTMENT.
With the vital Flame Pickering the
Pope Makes mn Appointment.

Rome, July 6.-The amelioration in
the pope's condition, Monday MORN
ing, was unnatural. considering the
gravity Of his illness, and 1t was
feared that possibly 1t was only the
last pickering of the vital flame.
During this brighter interval the
pope resumed his habits of command,
and insisted on giving orders for the
preparation of the brief appointing
Monsignor Nolponi, actually secre-
tary of letters to princes, as secre-
tary of the consistorial congregation.
a post vacant owing to the promotion
of Monsignor Nocella TO the cardinal
ate. The Importance Of such an APP
pointment, especially at the present
moments manifest when IL is consid-
cred that on the pope's death the sec
retary of state ceases to exercise his
functions, which are assumed imme-
diately by the secretary of consistor-
ial congregation.
The pope insists on staying up and
walking at intervals, saying that
weakness is the worst part of his Ill
ness, against which the best remedy
Is activity.

QUIET AT EVANSVILLE, IND,
Monday Morning Saw Int Little
sign. OF the Reign OF Mob Law
of sunday and sunday Might.

Evansville. Ind. July e.--rhis city
was quiet Monday and there were no
signs of the mob violence that agi-
tated all citizens Sunday night. Busi-
ness is moving in the even tenor of
it's way. An examination of the husi-
ness district shows that much dam
age was done To stores and especially
to the hardware houses, many of
which were entered and robbed of
guns and ammunition. Thousands of
shots were fired during the night, but
SO far as learned no one was killed,
although numbers of people are said
TO have been wounded.
Several negroes were caught by
mobs and almost beaten to death be-
fore the police could save them.
The chief demonstration of the
night was an attack upon tho county
Jail between ten and one o'clock.
Several thousand men crowded the
street before the building and finally
obtained entrance through the forti-
fed gates 10 the yard where they be-
gan to batter the windows of the Jail.
Efforts TO prevent this we're futile and
the crowd held sway, the police of the
city being occupied with holding the
sightseers from invading the front
part of the building and ransacldng
the sheriff's residence.
After the mob was thoroughly sat
isfied thnt Lee Brown, the murderer
of Patrolman Massey. was not in the
building, they separated into sounds
of 40 or so and paraded the down
town streets until daylight, shoot
ing promiseuously and visiting the
negro quarters. Negroes arc terror
ized.
The local companies of the state
militia have been ordered out and
will be reinforced by companies from
southern Indiana.
The Evansville members of the state
troops were called out to prevent fur
ther rioting. The governor issued the
order.
There were few outbreaks, Mon
day, and several white men fred
through the windows OF houses occu
pied by negroes. Several negro fam
lilies have barricaded their homes in
expectation of renewed trouble.
