Furnishing those who wero responsible for
the Kischinef massacre. Eight hundred

the preliminary examination $50 persons
have been remanded for trial In the lower
courts. -Four hundred and fifty cases have
been sent to the court of appeal of which
hfty-three are indictments for manslaugh-

SECRET OF LEO's HEALTH.
Regularity and Diet Given as the Chief
Causes.

The Baltimore Sun says: The pope writes
a correspondent in the Scotsman. has never
been outside the grounds of the Vatican
since he was hailed pope. The Vatican ID
on one of the most unhealthful Of the hills
of Rome
He was born physical weakling. and has
been inclined to sickness all his life. Yet
every day he has toiled more hours than
tradesmen permit their sturdy adherents
to toll. For twenty-five years he has per-
sonally directed the policies and acts of his
worldembracing church. even to details.
He has been harassed by the most vexa-
tons problems that have disturbed Catho-
lie Rome since the days of Luther.
And when he became pope he had been
hard at work for fifty years! Why has he
lived? Why has he been able to work and
work hard and well at the most exhaust
ing of all labor? How has he withstood
that fatal combination-work and worry?
Why has he not been compelled to take
long vacations and ''much-needed rests?''
Why has he never been down with merry
Gus prostration?'
The answer to all these questions Is in
two words-regularity, diet. The human
body is nothing but strong, delicate ma
chine. 1t must be treated as a machine
1t must be run regularly; 1t must be rested
regularly; 1t must be repaired regularly
The great secret of Leos power and ca
pacity in spite of his feeble body and his
ninety -tnTee years Is Olet. Diet means
enough fuel-plenty. but not fuel to choke
the furnace. The pope eats for the good of
his body. not for the amusement of his
palate. He let's his mind tell him when to
stop-not greedy. blind, selfish appetite
He eats so little that the average man
or woman would call it starvation But
he eats enough, and it Is of the best quail
fty. At times he overeats- for the appe-
title for food is the strongest, the most in
sidious, the most dangerous in the human
body. He Is promptly punished his feeble
ness making him luckier in that respect
than are most overeaters. He doesn't then
let his palate cajole and fool him into
thinAinS he Is Ill because he drinks too
much. He apologies by eating nothing
for while, and returns to his routine.

HOPE AT THE LEGATION.
Strong Feeling That the Pope May
Recover

Mgr. Falconio. the papal delegate to the
Catholic Church in America, received a
cablegram at 9:45 today concerning the
condition of Pope Leo XIII. which had the
effect of keeping up the hope of members
of the delegates household. This cable
gram follows:
After a calm night the holy father feels
somewhat better"
At the house of the delegate there Is a
strong feeling that the pope will recover
and live some time. This feeling is based
on the cablegrams that have been received
from Cardinal Rampolla. On Thursday
the news from that source was more hope
full than at any previous time since the
illness Of the pontir occurred. The tele-
grams of yesterday and today have not
indicated loss of hope Of ultimate re-
covery.
At the legation house 1t Is believed that
there would be no reason for Cardinal
Rampolla to take view Of the condition
of the pope more hopeful than natural
Judgment based on interviews with the
pope and his physicians 1t Is thought
that If there was really imminent likeli-
hood of his death in the opinion of Cardi-
nal Rampolla that belief would be more
strongly reflected in the messages received
here.
Members of the delegates household to-
day expressed surprise when told, In re-
Spouse to a question in relation to the
pope's chances Of recovery. that the preva-
lent opinion was that his death would oc-
cur within few days, and perhaps at any
moment.
The report that the Vatican would keep
the death a secret until time had been al
lowed for notifying the heads of govern
mentS was not credited here. 1t was said
that in order to do that 1t would be neces-
sary to keep the matter from the public for
six or seven hours, and that was hardly re-
garded as possible under the circumstances,
even IL there should be desire to do so at
the Vatican. 1t was thought that the death
of the pope must become common knowl-
edge In Rome almost Immediately from the
time the physicians state that life has de-
parted.
