OF the sacred college are said TO favor
q new policy for the church and the
election of a foreigner as pope. Should
this plan commend itself to the con-
clave and change of policy be agreed
on Cardinal Gibbons might be the Sc
lection No opposition TO him could be
1eareu from any OF me european gov
ernments, and no political compiled
lions would arise. 1t is said to be a
fact that many of the cardinals think
that the selection of Gibbons would
happily solve many difficulties. North
America has had but three cardinals
McCIoskey, Taschereau Cwho are both
dead and Gibbons.
James Cardinal Gibbons is one of the
most popular and respected dignitaries
of the Roman church. He was created
a cardinal by Pope Leo on June 4, 1856,
at the age of fifty-twO. He is Il native
of Baltimore, but spent his boyhoOd in
Ireland, where he received Il liberal ed
ucation. Returning 10 America he was
graduated from the st. Charles college,
Maryland, and was ordained n priest
in 1861. He Is known in Rome as the
democratic cardinal from his ex-
treme modeSty and retirement
He is frail in appearance. but endow-
ed with tremendous vitality. As a
scholar with a wide and intimate
knowledge of men and affairs he has
few peers and no superiors in the Ro-
man college of cardinals.
But while the election of a foreigner
as head of the church has been discuss
ed, it is not considered more than Il re-
mote possibility. and those in the best
position to now are confident that an
Italian will be chosen. The Italian car
dinals most prominently mentioned for
elevation are Gotti. Satoli. Svampa,
the brothers Vannutelli. Sarto, Ram
polla and Oreglia, with Capecelatro,
Eerrata and Ferrari as remoter posi-
bilities. However. when a choice is
finally made it may prove that none
of these has been selected and that
some cardinal not considered as having
chance has been chosen.

to Cardinal Gibbons. is the best known

corps Since 1871, arose, EInott's name
was at once considered. General Ell
lott is a native of Alabama, but was
appointed to the service from New
York in 1870.
Another change slated to take place
in the army in August will be the pro-
motion OF Brigadier General Leonard
Wood to the grade of major general.
General Wood is a personal friend of
the president and commanded the
rough riders when they first went to
Cuba. His rise in the. army has been
very rapid. as he had only reached
captaincy prior to his appointment as
colonel Of volunteers in 1898.

Fifth United States artillery, and
served to the end of the war with that
regiment. In 1866 he was made q
lieutenant, and in 1870 was transferred
to the quartermaster's department,
with the rank of captain, reaching the
grade OF colonel in 1901.
General Humphrey was chief quar-
termaster of Skaters army in Cuba,
and it is related that he had a sharp
controversy with Colonel Roosevelt,
then in command of the rough riders,
over question of transportation, dur
ing which he told his present COM
mander in chief that Cuba was not
hot enough for him. or words to that
effect. General Humphrey afterwnrd
served with General Wood and was
chief quartermaster of the China ex-
petition. Later he served with Chaffee
in the Philippines.
General George W. Davis, who re-
tires on July 26, is now in command
Of the army In the Philippines. He en-
tered the service as an enlisted man in
the Eleventh Connecticut infantry and
reached the grade of brigadier general
in the regular army in 1900 and that Of
major general in July Of last year.
Rear Admiral George w. Melville,
for over fifteen years chief of the bu-
reau OF steam engineering of the navy,
reached the age of retirement last
January, but was ordered to continue
until his successor was appointed,
which has just occurred. He entered
the service of Uncle Sam in 1861. and
has been identified with the creation
and building of the new navy, and all
the progress in the mechanical con-
struction of ships has practically had
its initiative with him. During his
term as chief engineer, which began
in 1887, designs have been prepared
for over 40 large ships. He regards
his greatest professional success to be
the construction of the triple screw
fliers Columbia and Minneapolis.
In 1879 Admiral Melville sailed with
Jeanette. When that Ill fated ship
was abandoned he commanded the
boats crew which escaped from the
Lena delta aud later headed the ex-
petitions which recovered the records
of the De Ions expedition aud the re-
mains of De Long and his companions.
Altogether Admiral Melville has made
three arctic voyages. For his bravery
on these expeditions he was awarded
a gold medal and advanced fifteen
numbers by special act of congress.

Venice. Who is regarded rs Il strong
candidate for the papal throne, was
born at REESE, northern Italy, in 1880.
He is noted for his prudence, having
never meddIed with politics, and for
extreme independence. He is also a
patron of the arts.
The cardinal is recognized as one
of the most learned men in the church
and is IA stickler for the truth as be-
tween the church and the people. SartC
won much renOwn some years ago by
destroying certain relics of doubtful
authenticity.
Cardinal Sarto was not discovered
until he had reached middle age. He
was parish priest in the province of
Venice for the greater part of his life
and finally became 4 bishop His high
executive qualities and uneXcelled
learning became known soon after his
elevation and were recognized 10y the
church. He was created Il cardinal in
1898. at which time lac was also named
patriarch of Venice.
One of the most striking figures OF
the group of men whose supreme ambi-
ton is To succeed TO the papal throne
is Cardinal SerafinO Nannutelli. He
is a power in the church by lineage as
we'll as by education and achievement.
He is descended from one of those old
Roman families whose histories have
been linked with the Roman Catholic
church for centuries. His brother Vim
cenzo is also member of the college
of cardinals, although of lower rank,
being only a cardinal priest. He was
born in 1884.
Pope Leo created Vannutelli a car
dinal bishop in 1887 and gave him the
see of Frascati. Since then he has
lived almost continually in Rome and
has been one of the closest advisers of
the pope. Vincenzo Napnuteli. is. two

years younger than his more disun-
guished relative. He was created car
dinal in 1889.
Another likely candidate for papal
honors is Cardinal Rampolla, who is
Il Sicilian and was born in 1S43 at
Polizzo. His family name IS Mariana
Rampolla del Tindaro, and he was edu-
Gated in Rome. For some years he was
attached to the nunciature at Madrid
and was created tftular archbishop of
St HeracleS in 1852. He became n
cardinal in 1887, taking title from the
Church of St Cecilia, and was made
secretary OF state in the same year.
He is administrator of the property Of
the holy see and is one Of the leading
diplomats Of the world
Still another possible heir to the pom
tificate is Cardinal GOtti. Jerome Ma
ria GOtti is 4 GenOese, the son of a
dock labOrer. and Pope Leo is said to
have long favored him as his successor.
Cardinal Gotti was born on March %,
1884, and attended the Jesuit school,
but at the age of sixteen was admitted
as a novice into that most austere of
Carmelite orders, the Order of Bare

1892 and created cardinal two years
later.
Cardinal Luigi Oreglia di Stefano,

In the country you will find every

mistake the humming sound inside the
poles for the humming of insects, and
it is to get at these supposed insects
that they make their perforations.
Bears, on the other hand, think the

B. NJ. Young is the head. General
Young will retire in January of next

that neither Miles, Young nor -Ghaffee-

Lieutenant General Nelson A Miles,
who reaches the age Of siXty-four on

the United States army, and from the
first his career has been brilliant. He
won the confidence of his superior of

reputation as a soldier by his success
as an Indian fighter. He was not quite
twenty-two when Fort Sumter was
fired upon and was at that time q clerk
in a Boston crockery store. He at once
raised a company and went to the
front as its first lieutenant.
Before he had been long In the serv-
ice he was made a captain, then a
colonel, later a brigadier and finally a
major general. General Hancock, I'M
der whom he fought in the early years
of the war quickly discovered his abil-

him. He was in charge of Hancock's

he was wounded, and General Han
cock, in letter to Washington urging
his promotion, said, IF Colonel Miles
lives, he will be one of the most dis
tinguished officers in the service"
During the closing months of the
civil war Miles, who had risen by sue
cessive promotions to the rank of ma
Tor general, was at the age of twenty
six in command of the Second army
corps. Never before had an American
officer of that age commanded so large
a body of soldiers.
When the civil war closed, General
Miles entered the regular army with

envy to become head of this bureau,
all the other chiefs since the civil war
having been appointed from civil life.
He is q native of Connecticut and was

In 1866. Captain Rae is regarded as an
officer of marked ability.
Brigadier General George L. Elliott,

While it is generally believed that the
next pope will be chosen from among
the italian cardinals, it is of especial
interest to Americans that Cardinal
Gibbons, the only American member of
the college, is considered not to he
without a chance for succeeding 10 the

That such an event is possible is ex-
planned by the fact that many members
