muy bien acogida por los cat6licos de

Pho X es un gran protector de las

pre- proverbial.
Desde hace tempo, ell Cardenal
! Sarto era considerable como uno de los
probables sucesores de Leon XIII. En-
ell mes de Abril 6ltimo, hablando un dfa
ell anterior pontffice con ell padre Perosi,
lie aseguro que abrigaba la firme con-
viccion de que Sarto habfa de ser su he
redero en- ell papado.
Durante muchos amos, Giuseppe
Sarto tuvo la reputation de ser uno de
los mejores predicadores de la Iglesia.
En- Westminster, la opinion general
es que Sarto es un hombre tranquilo Y
moderado, que nunca Sc ha mezclado EN-
asuntos polfticos. Lo mas probable es
que ell nuevo Papa inaugure en- la lyle

Mr.. Editor we have decided to tell

A Transandean Railway.

From advance sheets of consular re- ports it appears that during the last session of the Chilian congress a, bill was passed providing for the construc- tion of a railway over the Andes noun tains. to connect Buenos Ayres with Santiago and Valparaiso.
 This will be the first line to cross the continent of South America. This rail way was projected twenty years ago, and since that time some sort of meas ure dealing with the question has been before each session of congress-; but each in its turn failed to pass one or the other branch of the law making body until on February 2S last. when the above mentioned bill became law. A railway extending from Buenos Ayres to the Cumbre of the Cordillera, at Uspallata Pass, to connect with the line from Valparaiso, is being con

The Pope as a Smoker.

It is no d:scredit to Pope Plus that he smokes. as of course. like every gentleman, he never indulges in tho habit in places where it might be of fensive. But is is regrettable to learn that he smokes nothing but cigars The pipe, which is always the mark of the more thoughtful and weIlpoisod mind. is far more likely to be of use to man whose position calls for slow deliberation, deep study, profound med ition and prolonged reflection. The cigar goes better with the nervous, hustling spirit of the superficial busi- ness man as he bustles about the mar ketplace or sits in a poker game CT watches a horse race. That Is why in the United States the increase in the production oi cigars last year was pro- portionately much greater than the in- crease in the production of manufac- tured tobacco: and the fact augurs ill for the intellectul future of the coun- try.-ProvideEce Journal.

Protect the President.

An effort to secure United States law severely punishing attempts upon the life of the president and other high officials was. defeated on the rather doctrinaire ground that in a republic the life of the president is not more valuable than that of any other citi- zen. It may be, however, very much more important to the nation than that of a minor official or a private citizen. It is absurd to say that during tho civil war the life of Abraham Lincoln was not more important than Of any other American. But the essential fact to be borne in mind is that cranks, as well as anarchists, like death. love a shining mark Secretary Cortelyou says that the public hears of very few of the attempts upon the life of the president. The presidents who have been assassinated were attacked solely because they were presidents; had they been private citizens no attack would have been made on them. It is not ur- reasonable to give extra protection to men exposed to extra danger.-Phila- delphia Record.

Word comes from Honolulu that ex- Queen Liliuokalani has not given up hope of securing payment of her claims for the crown lands of Hawaii and compensate for the loss of the throne. She will start soon for Washington with a small retinue. The small Ha- waiian princes, David and Jonah, nephews and heirs of Queen Dowager kapiolani, are in straitened oircum- stances. as the German Savings Bank of San Francisco has seized most of their landed estate and is collecting the rents to satisfy the interest on mort gages for $500 eco. These two Hawaiians have lived high and intrusted the man. agement of their property to an agent who gave them plenty of money, but neglected the estate.

 genuine. This road will shorten the
 time between Europe and Chili by six
 or eight days, as traffic is now via the Strait of Magellan.
 r The railway from Buenos Ayres is completed as far as Puente del Inca, a short distance from the Cumbre. and the line in course of construction in Chili is completed as far as Salto del Saldado, also near the pass over the Andes, and during the summer months November to April-trafIic is carried on over the mountains, along the route of the proposed railway, by mule car avans. It requires only one day to make the trip between the railway ter minals- The pass is crossed at an ole vation of 13.000 feet above the sea level; but the route as surveyed for the rail- way provides for a tunnel through the mountains, which will reduce the alti- tude of the highest point reached by the railroad to considerably below that of the Cumbre, where the mule trans ports cross.

The Smyrna Fig and W hat It Prom
 iSeS for Arizona.

According to a dispatch from the university of California, dated Septem- Der s, the United States government has officially acknowledged the success of Mr. George C. Roeding of Fresno in solving the problem of the Smyrna fig This problem was to make the Smyrna fig tree bear fruit in this country. The tree itself has grown luxuriantly wherever planted in the Pacific coast region from the time Of it's first in troduction, several years ago, but it consistently refused to bear. MT. Roed- has won the gratitude of the fruit growers of Arizona and California, for the Smyrna fig is even more profitable than the navel orange, while adapted to a much greater range of climate. Fruit experts have known for a year that the Fresno man had succeeded. and now that the department of agri- culture of the federal government af- firms the fact the rapid propagation of the fruit will naturally follow. The Drlef d1Spatcn rom Berheley to WHICH we have referred merely states that the chronological problem connected with Smyrna fig culture has been solved and recites the fact that the fertilizine insects now thrive in California, and does not mention that the honor be- longs to MT. Roeding. but the facts cannot be disputed.
 The history of the efforts 10 grow the Smyrna fig in California is very inter- esting. This fig is a new fruit every where except in Smyrna. Asia, ant Algeria. Africa For about ten years California nurserymen have tried tC propagate the fruit, which is infinitel. ksuperior to the domestic fig. Trees
