1t still remains true that a man Of native
power may, as Emerson said, assert himself
freely, even amid the Oldest and mouldiest
conventions. and Leo XIII did so, as is con-
fessed by all. Some OF the dreams with

aspired TO restore the Holy See TO it's old
position. not merely the moderator. but
the moving force in the political life OF the
civilized world. In Italy of To-day IL
was affirmed with much truth that the Pope
was more statesman than saint" His
views, like his ambitions. were of the wild

which never left him. In close touch with
the affairs of many nations. his extraordi-

CAUSED MUCH SURPRISE.
News Of the POpe's Relapse Last Night
Banished All Hone.

ROME. July 9.-The news of the sudden
relapse Of the Pope yesterday after
noon, the consultation of physicians and
the alarming bulletin which followed was
an unexpected thunderbolt in what had
already become, in the public feeling, an
unclouded sky. The idea now prevails
that this brings to a definite end all of the
bright hopes which were cherished this
morning.
Professor Rossoni went through the most
careful examination of the illustrious pa
tient. employing again what is known as
the Baccelli system. The consultation
lasted over two hours. The patient, as one
feature of the investigation, was made to
pronounce the Italian word "thrty-three"
(trenta-tre) which, in a case where there
is indicated tho presence of a badly acting
heart, vitiated circulation and serum in
the pleura, TO any one listening at the
patients side, presents a sound as if the
consonants in the word "thirty-three" had
been dropped. The experiment, unfortun-
ately, proved not only the presence of fluid
in the pleura. but it's rapid augmentation,
so that it already afflicted the patient with
the same disturbances that were observed
/, on last Tuesday. IL was evident that an
other operation would be Indispensable but
no decision on this point will be reached
until after another consultation, which has
been postponed because of the weakness OF
the patient. The three doctors will make
another examination A state of great pros
tration has ensued. rendering worse the at
lection of the kidneys. 1t is likely that
an injection OF salt water into the veins will
be resorted to. The diarrhoea, which an

consultation, has now ceased

doctor looked haggard and much depressed.
The hopeful appearance which he had
shown early in the day had entirely dis

admirers and worshipers of Pope Leo are
sending remedies which they say are sure
to save the Pontiffs life.
An American has sent what he describes
as an extraordinary nutritive liquid which
will restore the dying Pope to health. A
South American has sent an hemorroidal
urgent in a rich flask. Besides these, there
are prescriptions from druggists and offers
to einbalm the Pontiff. Others offer to make
a death mask; some want to paint a pic
ture of Pope Leo, and one writer even
offers to impart the secret of petrifying the
body into an everlasting statue to be offered
to the Popes nephews.

a layman instead of priest. At the bish-

tents of the cablegram were entirely un-
known to the bishop or his household
When told Of the remark Of a dignitary
within the Papal circle to the effect that the
sender of the dispatch which SO affected the
Pope might be made bishop, the news
elected a smile, followed by the remark
that Mr. Cleary was long ways off from
having such honors rendered him, as he
was but layman within the church.

There Is probably good ground for the
complaint OF the water company Of the
wasting OF water. The city's experience
with natural gas showed that under a wide
open contract many persons would burn
great deal more gas than they paid for or
than was necessary. No doubt somewhat of
the same reck'essness prevails in the use
OF water. In such weather as this the
temptation to use water very freely is
great. but each consumer should remember
that others have rights. and a general
waste OF water might imperil public safety

LEO'S FINAL RESTING PLACE.
Spot in the Church Of st. John Later
nan Designated.

ROME July s.-That the Pope fully realiz-
es that his death cannot long be deferred is
shown by the attention he has given in the
last few days to the details Of his final rest
ing place. 1t is well known that he has dis
cussed his testamentary disposition and
expressed his wishes as to the place and
manner of his funeral. Shortly before he
was taken i'll the Pontif repeated to Car
dinal Satolli his desire to be buried in the
Church of st. John Laternan. The spot
designated is the left of the apse,
above the entrance to the sacristy, CORE
spending to the opposite niche in which is
the monument erected by himself in 1891 to
Pope Innocent III. 1t is said that a statue
of Pope Leo, forming part of the monu-
ment, has already been made. In other re-
spects the tomb will resemble that of In
nocent III, consisting of a sarcophagus,
with has relief two inches, two statues
and two medallions.

THE COLONNAS AND ORSINIS.
New Phase Of the Historic Strife Be-
tween Two Families.

tween TWO amIlleSs
ROME, July "a new phase Of the his
toric strife between the noble families of
Colonna and Orsini has been developed by
the illness Of the Pope. Hoping to recon-
cile this ancient family hostility it has been
the practice to designate the head of each
house as a prince and assistant to the pom
tifical throne, these two positions being
the highest lay honors in the gift of the
Pope. In the case Of the coronation of a
new Poihtiff, the two princes stand on
either side of his Holiness. The head of the
Colonna family, Don Marco Antonio CO.
lonna, was among the visitors at the Vat
lean to-day, but the Orsini family is tenn
porarily unrepresented in this high dig
nifty, Don Filippo Orsini having resigned in
favor of his son, Don Domeniso, Prince of
Solefra, and the latter's nomination not
having yet been confirmed by Pope Leo
The Orsnis are thus without representa-
ton, and this circumstance constitutes an
interesting historical curiosity.
