ton Of the Pope, the Neapolitans have had re-
course to their most sacred and seldom used
method Of rendering him assistance. st. Cen
naro is their greatest saint. and his mitre is pre-
served at Naples. 1t is said to work miracles
The aristocracy and clergy OF Naples begged
the Archbishop to send the mtre to Rome, and
he allowed it to leave the city for the first time
in many years. The precious relic intrust-
ed to MonsignOr Prince Caracciolo, who arrived
with it safely in Rome to-day. At the Vatican
the mitre was received by Cardinal Rampolla
and Monsignor Bisleti. who with great cere
mony thanked the Neapolitans for their pety
and self-sacrifce in allowing the mitre to come
here After the Cardinal had invited Monsigror
Caracciolo to remain for some days in this city

The Romans determined by all means to
ascertain everything possible about the Pope

resting place, and he replied
Yes; but that was some time ago. perhaps
year back When he made his will he ex-
pressed desire that after he had rested the
usual period of year at St. Peters MS hnal
resting place should be here at the church or
st. John Lateran. Then, saw the Holy Father
only a short time before this sickness. and he
again brought the matter up saying with ear
nestness that he wished TO repose here. But l
endeavored to dismiss such gloomy thoughts
from his mind by telling him there was no need
considering such a thing at that time.
Cardinal Satoili then spoke of his stay in
America, and his black eyes snapped with real
satisfaction ne referred to the slight coolness
which occurred in certain quarters when he first
arrived in the United States. and how; later. his
coming more generally and agreeably well
coined. He spoke of the various grave Church
questions which he had been called upon to
solve, and seemed gratified with the results
achieved
II always like to see Americans" he remarked
"and when they are good enough to say they
want hne to come again to America, assure
them that it is my earnest hope to do so; but
it is very difficult for US. with our duties in
Rome, to take such trips. Still, 1 sincerely
hope to see America again.

ious to see a paper published in
our old home county which is so
dear to us. Mr.. White is a son

Increased Drink Bill.

Our drink bill last year was ST.
269, O9S, 276, or 1929, $3.50, 2S1 more
than the average annual expendi-
ture of recent years The average
per capita was s17.33 or four and
seven-tenths cents per day for each
man woman and child in the cOun-
try. The increase has been mainly
in the consumption of wine and
beer, and it is remarked that in
prosperous years people drink more
of these light beverages, and in the
panic times and years more whisky
and other spirits.
