PRACTICALLY NO CHANGE
Pope Much the Same aS For
Past Day or Two

ROME, July 15.-The pope's condi-
ZION shows no change since yesterday.
The doctors continue to fee. that the
patients condition is extremely dan
serous, but they say he may still ling
er Tor many lays.
speaking of the specific conditions
tne doctors say that they think the
pneumonia has practically disappear
ed. The regatheiing OF liquid in the
pleura is so slight as to cause the
patient no trouble.
The chief remaining danger lies in
che almost complete prostration, sue
oeeding the acute stages of the disease.
The official news received from the
Associated Press during the past twen-
Cy- four hours states that in his de-
lirum the pope spoAe specially of pill
grimage and recited Latin verse.
He often seemed panic-stricken,
crying to Lapponi, Centra and one Of
his secretaries, Where are you? Do
not abandon me"
The delirum ceased entirely at p.
M, when His Holiness again revived.
Having eaten nothing throughout the
day he was then given four spoon
fuls of meal Droth and mast.cated
some beef without swallowing it.
From midnight up to this morning the
pope was constantly dTowsy.
The liquid in the pleura did not
show much tendency to gather and the
doctors think it likely the end will
come through exhaustion and anemia
instead of a result of cardiac paraly-
sis.

Another Auto in Town

Automobiles are getting about as
common around town as the stages.
This afternoon about two o'clock an
other one drifed in, and was soon
surrounded by a crowd of the curious
just as the Paradise stage would be
ii it were to drill down Drexel boule-
ward in Chicago.
The vehicle is an Oldsmobile-you
see it advertised in every magazine
you pick up; it weighs 500 pounds,
and carries in addition to the two
passengers a couple of hundred pounds
OF baggage. The motive power con-
sists of a five-horse power gasoline
engine. l.. l.. Whitman is the chaffeur.
and his companion is E. l. Hamlin.
They reside in Pasadena, California,
and the object Of their trip
tn have a good time. They are not
advertising the machine, or trying to
make a record for speed. New York
is their destination, but they don
care whether they get there before
winter or not.
They left San Francisco last Friday,
having one breakdown; that was near
Lovelock, and caused them to lose a
day. They have extensive photo
graphic outfits. and have secured sew
eral hundred views.

who was talking in an ordinary con-
versational tone, could be distinct y
heard. 1t is pleasing to know that the
future usefulness of the line can be
judged by the manner in which IL
works now, hence it is safe to say that
an excellent service for all time to
come is guaranteed
A large number of phones in and
around Paradise have been ordered,
and as stated in the Silver State re-
Gently, it will be necessary to institute
a local exchange in Paradise, but it
has not been determined yet where
this will be situated. The Paradise
people appreciate the value of the tel
ephone line, and all who would be
benefited by the service will secure
it now. 1t will prove a great con-
venience in many ways; for instance,
by getting up early in the day, par
ties living in Paradise can telephone
to some of the places here having
phones whose proprietors are at the
place of business at that time, and
place an order for any urgent necessity
medicine, for instance-and have it
placed on the stage, taken out and
delivered in the afternoon of the same
day.
Prof. Butler authorizes the announ-
cement that telephone service over the
new line would be free to all until
next Monday, and that he would be
pleased to have the people of Winnie
mucca call up their friends in Paradise
and thus make a test of the efficiency
Of the new line.

Oregon, Burned Engine
Blew Up

PORTLAND, Ore, July 15.-Six
masked highwaymen held up an cleo
trio car On the Oregon City line at
midnight, shot and painfully wounded
Frederick Day, and after taking about
$500 in money from the passengers,
made their escape.
The robbery occurred at 18th and
Division streets where the trolley line
crosses the Southern Pacific track.
Three men boarded the car on the rear
and three On the front platform and
rode some distance before they started
to rob the car.
Five men went through the car COM
pelling the passengers to give up their
money and jewelry while one man
stood guard.
Frede lex Day, who did not produce
his valuab,es quick enough to suit the
highwaymen was shot, the bullet en-
tering the abdomen.
Day is seriously wounded but will
probably recover.
About forty people were On the car
which was bound for Sellwood a su-
burb.
After the robbery had been finished
five of the men dropped off the car
but one remained and compelled the
motorman to run some distance far
ther at high speed.
When they reached the timber, two
miles from town, he left the car. 1t
was nearly an hour before the police
could be notified and the robbers had
time to make good their escape. After
leaving the car the guard held up o.
n. o. Bittner on Milwaukee street,
and relieved him of few dollars in
silver.
