PoPE's KINDNESS TO A BOY
How Plus Y. Befriended "A Printers
Devil.


Devil.
Popes lose the greater part of their
individuality after their election, wise
ones have always said, but every one
in the Vatican Is already convinced
that Plus y. retains the same charac-
teristics he displayed as a bishop, not
withstanding his new dignity, says the
Rome correspondent of the New York
World. His manners continue to be as
affable as before his election, and the
familiar way he deals with every one
who succeeds in approaching him
forms the despair of the straitlaced
courtiers who held office under his
predecessor.
In the Vatican he continues to con-
verse Familiarity with all those of the
employees whom he happens to meet,
and the following incident is worth re-
peating as demonstrating the extreme
affability of the new pontiff. a little
boy, the printers devil of the Vatican
printing office, returning home from
work few evenings ago happened to
come face to face with the pope in the
garden. Delighted at this unexpected
meeting, which realized some of his
fondest dreams, the boy knelt to kiss
the pope's hand.
Plus y. was much pleased at the de-
vOtion shown by the youth and stopped
awhile inquiring about the boys work
and his family. The next morning on
his arrival at the printing office the boy
received an order of suspension signed
by the director himself because of his
having approached the pope contrary
TO the orders of the maggiordOmo. The
matter came to the ears of Plus y,
who sent his private secretary TO the
home of the young boy, summoning
him to his apartments, where the pope
made him a present of money and
gave him a written order to the direc-
tor that he be reinstated and his pay
increased.

Song of the Gun Pointers.


Instead of cheering when they make
bullseyes our sailors of the European
squadron enliven target practice with
The Gun Pointers Song" written and
sung after THE Good Old Summer
Time" says Il Washington dispatch to
the New York Herald. Here it is:
There's a period each day when it's all
work and no play.
And that's the Morris tube time;
We swat those old trays, and the targets
we faze
In the good old loading time.
We bore sight the guns and bring shells
And continuous aim" alI the time.
And when time comes to shoot we are
there: hear us hoot
In the good old shooting time
CHORUS.
In the good old shooting time in the good
old shooting time,
Just watch us hit the targets; we can hit
them every time.
The Morris tube we work each day, and
that's a very good sign
That we'll hit the targets in the real old
fighting time.
We will work, work away in old Vile
franche bay,
And that's no merry old rhyme.
For we want that big prize which we feel
When we come to the shooting time.
From Tunis Wen sail. never thinking Wen
fail
To smash it in two every time;
So in Florida bay you will hear them all
say
They worked in the summer time
CHORUS.
Therell be shooting some day
When we're shooting for pay,
And that's the real record time;
of the shores of Key West
Wen all do our best
In the good old record time.
When the guns start to bark
To Europe you'll bark.
For the targets will heavenward climb
And the watch face will show
We've not been too slow -
In the good old record time.

GARD TO REQUIsITIONs.
ollie james Seeking Aid of Congress
to Further Hound the Former
Governor of Kentucky.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, Nov ia bill which, IL
enacted, would have far-reaching bearing
on the question OF States rights, has been
introduced In the House by Representative
Ollie James. of Kentucky, who was the at
torney for the late William Goebel in his
contest with former Governor William Syl-
vester Taylor. now residing in Indianapo-
lis. It provides that when the Governor
of one State refuses to honor the requisi-
ton Of the Governor of another State for
the surrender OF a fugitive from justice the
Governor refused may go before the
United States Circuit Court with his requi-
sition and the indictment, or an affidavit
stating the charges against the fugitive.
whereupon the only question at Issue shall
be the identity of the fugitive. When that
is established the judge of the United
States Court shall remand the fugitive into
the hands of the Governor demanding him.
The bill is aimed at former Governor
Taylor, who has been bounded by the DEM
ocrats of Kentucky.

MAYOR PLANS REFORMS
RECORDS OF THE BOARDS MUST BE
KEPT ACCURATELY.
He Il Not Satisfied with the Present
Method Of Doing Things-Next
Cabinet Meeting.

Mayor Holtzman is planning a reform in
the workings Of his various boards. He
made this announcement last evening.
The mayor thinks the records of the vari-
Gus boards are not kept accurately and sys-
tematically enough-especially the Board of
Safety and the Board of Public Works
and he is going to work a reform.
II don't think the records Of the Board
Of Works and the Board of Safety are kept
as systematically as they should be-" said
the mayor last night. what want to do
is to revise the methods of this work in the
Board OF Works and the Board of Safety.
1 don't want to be crticising the methods
of the other administrations, but / do be-
lieve there is room for improvement in the
way of these two boards keeping track of
their affairs and accounts. What want to
do is to put the work of the boards on
strictly business basis, pure and simple.
am now discussing the matter with the
members of the boards. The details of the
new methods have not been completed yet"
One of the things the mayor seeks to
accomplish in his reform is a complete and
systematic list of the electric and gas street
lights of the city. The Board of Works
does not know where the street electric and
mand that the Board of Works take imme-
diate steps to secure list OF the localities
of all the street gas and electric lights in
the city. One of the demands he will make
on the Board of Safety in his reform cru
sade will be that the affairs of the market
be kept more systematically. The affairs of
the market are now kept in a more
or less haphazard way, the mayor says,
In the Board of Health, he says, his re-
form crusade will not make any changes OF
Importance. The affairs of this board are
now kept in a systematic way and little
Improvement can be made there
AT the next meeting of the mayors cab
met he will give the members of his boards
a general outline OF his ideas of reform
along this line 1t Is not known just when
this meeting viii be held.

CONDITION is PECULIAR
j. BRISTOw PREPARED HIS WIFE'S
CLAIM AGAINST ESTATE.
He Now Denies Each Allegation
Made by His Better HaIf-His
Report Executor.

The answer Of Joseph Bristow, executor
Of the estate of Malvina Evans, filed in the
Probate Court yesterday to the claim of
Belle Bristow for services to the decedent,
shows peculiar state of facts.
Some months ago Belle Bristow filed a
claim against the estate for about $1,000
for services which she claimed she had
rendered the decedent during her lifetime.
The claim was prepared by her husband.
Joseph Bristow, who is the executor Of the
decedent's estate.
Bristow. by his answer, fled yesterday.
denies each and every allegation contained
in his wife's claim. He further says that
the claim was fully paid during the life
time of the decedent. The answer also
states that the claim accrued in 1897, was
not filed until six years later. and for this
reason 1t is barred by the statute Of limita-
tions.
