ALL EUROPE SURPRISED.
The New Pope Had Not Been Considered
as q Candidate.

|
London.-News of the selection Of
| Cardinal Sarto as Pope reached Eng
land first through dispatch from New
York City, and caused great surprise
here. as it did throughout Europe, as
Cardinal Sarto had hardly been
thought Of as possible successor to
| Pope Leo.
The first question asked. not only by
laymen, but by high church dlgnitar-
! les, was who is Sarto?" Books Of
reference were quickly hunted up In
order to ascertain knowledge OF the ca
reer of the new Pontiff.
Berlin. - Replying to the question
whether the election Of Cardinal Sarto
as the new Pope was acceptable to
Germany, representative Of the For
eign Office answered: "UnQualifiedly
| so from an official viewpoint. Sarto is
mild-mannered man and has never
been active politically"
All sections of the press regard the
choice as wise, praise SartoS concilla-
tory character and emphasize the be.
| lief that he will be a religious rather
than a political Pope.
! It Is remarked that Sarto is the only
italian Cardinal whom the King Of
Italy received.
Paris.-The election of Cardinal Sarto
as Pope created a distinctly favorable
impression in Governmental quarters.
| The choice of Sarto is satisfactory as
apparently ensuring the continuance OF
! the recent policy Of moderation fol.
lowed by. the Holy See in its relations
| with France and other Catholic coun'
tries. .-.4.A,...-.,
Washington, D. C.-The election Of
Cardinal Sarto as Pope came as sur
prise to the Catholic dignitaries OF
Washington, to whom the new Pope is
quite unknown, except as an able and
devout member of the Sacred College.
Monsignor Fanconio, the Papal Dele
gate, as soon as he is officially advised
of the election Of Plus X, will send
out to the Catholic prelates of the
United States q circular letter COM
plending him to their loyalty.

Creamery Meeting,

A large crowd of farmers and
business men gathered at the
opera house last Saturday after.
noon to listen to some very in
terestlng talks on the creamery
subject by Prof. Kaufman Of the
Agricultural College and Mr..
Coats of Minneapolis. The OBJ
sject Of the meeting was to get
the feeling Of those interested
in regard to the advisability Of
starting a creamery at Hope.
Those present expressed them
selves as deeply interested in the
project and the business is now
being taken hold of by some of
our leading farmers and busi-
ness men. A large number of
shares were subscribed that day
and the general feeling was that
a creamery properly, handled
could be made a paying invest
ment. All farmers tributary to
Hope are earnestlv requested to
take shares. If the required
number of shares are takes and
the number of cows procured
(300) the necessary steps will be
taken and the company organlz-
ed. Let's build the creamery
and at once.

From Old Friends.

Matthews Run. Pa, Jan. 8, 03.
Hope Pioneer:
Having recently paid visit
to our esteemed friends and
former residents of Hope, N. D.,
Mr.. and Mrs. =. c. Day but now.
of LYsander, N. Y, | thought
their many friends might be IN
terested with an account of said
visit from your humble servant.
In the first place you will par
don the liberal use of terms and
expressions in describing my
trip and visit to the home of our
friends. For unless it is char
acteristic to both writer and sub
ject it might not interest so
much those for whom it is speci-
t.al]y intended. I referin this re-
,spect to brother Day and myself.
First friend Day and myself
were equally surprised to. learn
that we were living at so short a
distance from each other, being
a trifle over three hundred miles
apart. So nothing to do but we
must see each other as soon as
possible. Accordingly the next
letter / received contained chal-
lenge to come forthwith without
delay regardless of circum-
stances or surroundings, condi-
tional or unconditional. So in
due time being fired with a cor
responding zeal and determine
tion I accepted the challenge and
went forth to the engagement.
It being in the holidays between
Xmas and New Years the trains
were all off time and in consequ-
ence I did not arrive at my dis
tination as soon as was expected
and had to tarry over night at
the last station on the r, R, call
ed Lamsono, being four miles
distance from where our friends
lived and in consequence Of this
delay trouble had already begun
for the place had been reconnoit-
cred twice that day, and l had
scarcely stepped from the train
when I was approached by a
sentinel and asked for ths count

After a comfortable nights rest
in cne of the hotels, and while
seated at the breakfast table eat

accompanimeuts l was aroused
by strange voices in the front
room of the hotel and distinguish
ed my own name being spoken.
Think l, there is no use
retreating I am in front of it now.
There was but one way of escape
apparently aud that was through
the kitchen where the waiter
girls and cook all had an eye on
me, SO stepping to the front l
asked what was the trouble and
was informed that hack was
waiting for me on the outside and
to pay no money and ask no
questions, but to get i'll there.
We were soon on our way pass

villages on our route. Beautiful
