Vatican during the jubilee year of his
priesthood in 1888. On the day of he
jubilee mass So, 100000 in gold coin was
presented. The total value of the jubi-
lee gifts was estimated at $l4,S00, 000
And since then the Pope celebrated,
the golden jubile of his episcopate
and the twenty fifth anniversary of his
pontiflcAte, each time receiving more
millions In gifts.
One of the most notable was a dia-
nond from President Kruger. Anoth-
er, presented to him last March, was
a topaz weighing 1854 grammes, of
which the Neapolitan artist Ardica
Carletto had, spent twelve years in
engraving a. representation of THE
Last Supper This gem alone is val
ued at $50, 000s A tiara, the work Of a
Bologna goldsmith, is valued, at $24, 600
more. The estimated worth Of the laces
in the Papal wardrobe alone is $780,
000
All this treasure, though nominally
the Pope's personal property, with that
inherited from his predecessors, he. has
regarded as his only by right of stew
ardship. With his own funds he has
been neither parsimonious nor extrav-
agant. He has particularly been gem
erous in giving financial Assistance to
friends; and many men in Rome who
have been his political opponents are
his financial debtors. He once loaned
100000 lire to save the Banca lie
Roma from disaster, and again he lent
400 900 lire to a great landed proprie-
tor who had been an active supporter
of Garibaldl. And ne has always been

mans, 2 Spaniards, Portuguese, 1
Englishman, Africans, 10 Greeks, z
Assyrians, 1 Thracian, and Dalma-
tians among the 263 Popes of the chron-
ology.
More than seventy among them had
been members of monastic orders.
Many of them came from the poorest
classes of society. 1t was, in fact. only
at the end of the tenth century, at the
commencement of the eleventh century,
when the Tuscan domination was at
its hight, when Theodore was power
full and the Counts of Tusculum were
tvrants. that a series of noblemen took
the apostolic throne. Damase ii, Ad-
rian w., Clement III. were sons OF
serfs; Urban ". was the son of a
cobbler; Nicholas ". and Celestin v.
were sons of peasants.
John XXI. was shoemaker APP
prentice, according to one account, and
a servant in an inn, according to an
other account. Benedict XII. was the
son of a miller Innocent vi. of an
artisan, Nicholas V. of turkey keeper,
Adrian vi. of a brewer, SiXtus ~.
of a fisherman, Sixtus V. of peasant,
Clement XIV. of a countryman' ana
Gregory XVI. of baker.
In taking the tiara, the Popes have
from time immortal changed their
names. Chroniclers assert that the
popIrlar belief in the short duration
Of the Pope's reign whose name was
not changed caused the custom. This is
not much more probable than Mac

The orthodox explanation of the
changing of names at the Pope's ele-
walton is in Jensus address TO the
APOSTLE who was the first Pope. His
name was Simon, and Jesus renamed
him Peter, saying, in an untranslatable
pun. that he was Peter, or stone, and
on this stone He would build His
church.
The name of Peter occurs once Only
in the entire pontifcal chronology, the
Popes having reverently refrained from
choosing the name Of the Apostle. At

ABOUT THE P0PES.
Name of the Next Pope-was a wom-
an Pope.

name OF the Next fOpe-Was Il WOnh-
an Pope:
From the New York Press
What name will the next Pope
choose? Perhaps each candidate has
already decided in his own mind what
he shall be called when he ascends the
throne. 1t is said that Sergius II was
the first Pope who changed his name
on reaching the papal chair. His bap-
tismal name was Peter di Porea, or,
in English, Peter Hogsmopth. e.PoreaN
in moderny Italian is SOW, the female
of the pork family. He changed his
name out of Difference to st. Peter,
deeming it arrogant to style himself
Peter II. He reigned in S44-S47.
Pope JOan.
Was a woman ever elected Pope?
There is an ancient tale that a young
girl of the name of Joan, who con-
ceived a violent passion for a monk
of the name of Folda, donned the mo-
nastic habit in order to be near him;
and that on his death she entered
upon the duties of professor and, be-
ing clever and popular got to be elect
ed Pope, succeeding Leo ". Gibbon
the historian, says: Until the Refor-
nation the tale was repeated and be-
eved without offense." Johann Lo-
REM Won Mosheim, the distinguished
church historian of Germany, was half
inclined to believe there was such a
persons as Pope Joan.
Thinnest of POpes.
Leo XIII was distinguished for his
leanness. He was, it is believed, the
thinnest Pope that ever lived. All of
his cardinals. with the exception of
Gibbons, are well-fed men, so that we
may look for some embonpoint in the
papal chair when the election takes
place. Before the time of Leo XIII, a
good healthy, expansive body was re-
garded as entirely Popish. To be of
'Pope's size" became not only pro-
verb, but a trade mark. In the haber-
dashery shops of London the initials
p. So. were often found upon mems
clothing, particularly underwear. If
the purchaser of a garment asked for
an undershirt "P. S." it was under
stood that he wanted "Pope's size,
meaning short and stout.
The POpe's Tiara.
The Pope calls himself "a head OF
the Catholic. or Universal Church; (2)
sole arbiter of its rights; 90 sovereign
father of all the kings of the earth.
From these assumptions he wears a
triple crown, one as King. Pope Hor-
Inasdas was the first to place on his
bonnet a crown. Boniface VIII added

1t was the great Napoleon who
broke the temporal power of the pa
pacy. When he overturned the power
of nearly every government in Europe
he did not allow the government of
the church to escape, For centuries,
until the Corsican soldier came to des-
olate Europe with fire and sword, the
Pope has been the power above King
and Emperor. No throne was secure
that he did not. support, and he even
claimed, and sometimes exercised, the
right of comforting and taking away
the sceptre: The. Pontiff was more
than imperial. He was the supreme
power of Europe, and every priest was
a minion and executive of his power
Napoleons took away the power OF the
Kings of Europe, and then he took
away the power of the Pope. Thus It
is that Pope Leo was the first Pope
to be a spiritual ruler only.
In 1909 Napoleon declared the tenn
poral power of Pope Plus VII at an
end. Plus VII retaliated by placing
the ban of communication upon the
Emperor Enraged by the act of the
Pontiff, and determined to show his
power over the head of the church, the
Emperor had the Pontiff brought to
France a prisoner, and kept him until
1918, when the Pope was allowed TO
return to Rome. but without temporal
power.
one year later Napoleon's empire fell,
and the Papal states were restored to
the Pope. The restoration, however,
did not replace all the former power of
the Vatican. The Pope held all the
central part of Italy, but his former
mower over the Kings of Europe had
been broken forever. The Papal yoke
had been heavy one, and those who
had been relieved by 1t would bow
their necks to it no more. Z
When Plus TX assembled the throne Of
Peter in 1916. the Papal dominions con-
sisted of nineteen states, situated in
Central Italy, covering 1900 square
miles and having population of 81
900 900. The Pope maintained stand
ing army-of which the Noble Guard
and other small companies, which now
guard the Vatican, comprise the exist
ing remnant-and collected a revenue
that is believed to have approached
$4,000, 900 annually.
The Pontiffs power In this large do
minion was absolute, both temporal
and spiritual, and it so continued until
thirty-three years ago, since which time
the Pope has been, as both Plus TX
and Leo XIII expressed It, THE Pris-
oner of the Vatican" In the Papal
states all Offices both spiritual and
temporal, were filed by priests, and to
this day the Roman Catholic priests
are still educated as If in view Of their
having at some time TO fiji temporal
Offices under the power OF the Vatican.
Pope Leo, during the reign of Gregory
XVI was Governor Of the Provinces
of Bonevento and PerTsia, and filled
the Office with marked success and abil-
ity, his administration being chiefly
marked By the disappearance ef the

Bishop Francis Silas Chatard Of In

Chatard was rector of the American

His Private Fortune, Apart from the

SJ,OOO,OOO.
1t has been understood that Leo XIII
has willed his private fortune not to
his relatives. but as a fund for his
successor, says the New York Sun No
one but the Papal Secretary of State,
Cardinal Rampolla, and the Papal
Treasurer, Cardinal Mocenni, knows the
amount of this fortune, but it is ex-
pected to exceed S5,OOO0O0. 1t is on de-
post in the Bank of England. The
Pope leaves three nephews and host
of lesser relatives. but he has kept a
pledge, made when he was elected Pom
tiff, that he would not use his power TO
enrich or advance them. and it is not
expected that they will get much at
his death.
His fortune is separate and distinct
entirely from the treasure and income
of the Papacy. He could, If he wished,
regard all this as his own, but he has
preferred to regard as his only such
money as comes to him through pri-
vate gifts. But of the Papal revenues.

from bonded investments, as we'll as

The suit was brought for injuries sus-

that no berth had been known to fall
