CARDINAL HAD SIMPLE TASTES.
Head Of Roman Church In England
Was without Vanity.

The late Cardinal Vaughan was
probably the handsomest and most
distinguished looking OF the Roman
ecclesiastical hierarchy. Just as Card
innl Manning looked the learned
aseetic, 80 Manning looked a true
Roman prince Of the church But he
was most simple In his tastes and
habits. Several times Roman Catho
lie ladies presented him with costly
robes, and on one occasion they pre-
scented him with carriage. But they
found that ne sold their gifts and
spent tho money In charity. They
therefore at last lent him robes and
carriage In order to obllge him to
retain them.

In a tent. News came of a nocturnal
murder In the neighborhOod, and con

by some members of the family. Mr..
Newell %thereupon cut out some sill
houettes representing men Of the
toughest western type, all with pistols
In their belts and in the attitude of
men intensely interested In a game of
poker. The silhOuettes Mr.. Newell
fastened to the inner canvas Of the
tent. At night the family, stepping
outside into the darkness to view the
result. were %entranced with its success.
The shadows thrown from the sill
houettes in the lighted interior indi-
Gated a tent filed with poker playing,
pistol shooting desperadoes. Thence
