tives, whereupon the patient sank back

Visitors Excluded.

Iuent visits made to the sick cham
ber although now the presence of call
ers could not harm the pope. While
he was. conscious these visits exhaust
ed him, but it was his wish that visit
ors be admitted. and the attending doc
tors thought it better not to cross him.
The pope died in harness, and while
not standing, as he declared he would
be. at least performing his duties to the
end.
This morning the sick room was the
quietest and most tranquil spot in the

than his face. which has strange as

shaved for SO long. His hands were
folded over a rosary, which he had used
for over fifty years. The famous arm
chair stood invitingly near, with his
stick beside 1t. While Contra, his valet,
prayed and wept before the huge ivory
crucihX, Dr. Lapponl sat beside the bed
ready for amy emergency.
Took Some Food.
Inc doctor from Time TO time rose
noiselessiy to administer nourishment.
OF which this morning the pontiff took
some. Indeed, DIR. Lapponi succeeded
in having him swallow several tea
spoonfuls of coffee, milk and brandy,
mixed.
The silence of the sickroom was oc-
casionally broken by a hacking cough,
due to the gathering of phlegm In the
pope's throat. These coughing spells
had the effect Of rousing the pontiff
and causing him to open his eyes and
revive slightly. While the doctors
We've examining their patient this
morning, believing him to be In a
stupor, his holiness suddenly fixed his
eyes, even now bright and by no means
lifeless, ON them, saying:

1T is your holiness who is brave"

was uttered the pope had again be-

DANGER OF LARGE INCOME.

1--WE Go to the Devil When We Have
$4,000 Year." Says Hills.
Harper's Weekly: I'VE all go to the
DEVIL" said DR.. Hills the other night,
when we have fifty thousand year.
Or most of U.S." he added hedging lit
tie. Some men can stand 1t, but not
many
Fifty thousand year Is the income Of
only 100000. well invested, and we have
long since lost the habit of accounting
the 100000 man rich. The proportion
of the fifty thousand-a men to the
rest Of the population Is not yet large In
this country. but the absolute number of
them Is pretty big. and II most Of them
nre going to the devil 1t is q serious mat
ter. However. DR.. Hills was not dealing
with statistics. but giving colloquial ex-
preston to an opinion. The opinion was
that an income Of fifty thousand year
is unwholesorne. He spoke Of divorce in
high life," and Of the .'pampered sons
and daughters Of luxury, rotten before
they are ripe and drowned in the honey
suckle Juice Of indulgence" We all see
enough Of the evils OF wealth: of lives
that might have been useful blighted by
1t; Of homes that might have been happy
devastated by 1t. Any Industrious and OBJ
servant person could get together facts
enough about promising young lives that
had come to no good from lack OF pres
sure of necessity, to make careful citizens
hesitate to say whether. IL they had to
choose. they would prefer the risks Of
fifty thousand a year or tuberculosis. And
yet. fifty thousand year has Its good
points, its opportunities. Its privileges;
and here In New York. at least, there are
facts and considerations that go far
towards neutralizing its perils.
Suppose 1t Is mere income derived not
from investment, but from labor or bust
ness. Its possessor, II he is prudent, will
save twenty thousand, and perhaps he
will give away five thousand That will
leave him only twenty-five thousand a
year to live on. and though. even If he
has family, he can live in comfort on
that sum; that he cannot live In prtdefui
luxury upon 1t is so we'll known that there
is no need Of going into details to tell
why. II his fifty thousand comes to him
in divided checks and coupons without
trouble or anxiety to him the situation Is
harder. 1t is an awful thing to be rid of
tho struggle for existence. 1t is really the
next thing to being dead, and yet 1t is
what almost every one OF us aspires to
and reaches after all the time. The first
thing the beginner usually tries to buy
with his money Is ease; the next is
pleasure. That's where the fifty thous-
and gets in Its deadly work. When its
poesesaor buys ease and pleasure instead
OF opportunity, 1t may raise the devil with
him, as DR.. Hills Justly suggests.

Gradually the shadow of death spread
over the pontiiT, his extremities became
cold, the features assumed tho fixed
risidity of death, and DR. Lapponi
noted his last iiultering heart-beats,
which gradually became slower and
slower until they finally stopped.
News of the pope's death spread rap
idly throughout Rome and caused the
most profound sensation. The whole
city is In mourning.
Crowds at Vatican.
-sllarge crowd is gathered about the
vatican. but perfect order prevails
there and elsewhere i'm Rome. The

THEY'RE OUR ISLANDS.

United States q as No Doubt OF Right
to Land Off Borneo.
Washington, July 20.-No communi-
cation has yet reached the state de-
partment from the British government
about several islands off the coast of
Borsleo, now In possession OF the
United States, whicE some members Of
the house of commons seem to think
belong to Great Britain.
The state department, however, is
prepared to give prompt and con-
elusive answer when Lord Lansdownc's
inquiry reaches here. Before leaving
Washington Saturday, SECRETARY Hay
looked personally into the matter and
satisfied himself the British govern
ment had not the shadow of q claim
on the islands IN question. When the
inquiry reaches here, acting secretary
LOOMS, in replying. will call the at
tention of the London government first
to the treaty Of 1885 between Great
Britain, Germany and Spain, by which
the last named nation was to have title
over all the islands outside marine
leagues distance OF the Borneo coast.
Later. in the treaty which this gov
eminent negoti..,ed with the sultan OF
Jolo for the purchase Of certain islands
belonging to him. a dragnet clause was
inserted, claiming for the United States
all those islands which had been coded
to Spain by the treaty Of 1885. On file

chief of the bureau Of equipment are
the charts and maps showing the Local
ton of the seven islands in contro-
versy, Baguan, Taganao, Bakkungaan,
Lihiman. Boaam. Sibeung and Lang
kayan These islands are clearly OUT
side of the marine league of the Borneo
coast, and therefore under the terms
of the two treaties belong to the United
States.
1t is said at the navy department
that Rear Admiral Evans, knowing
these facts. recently sent one Of the
Philippine gunhoats to the islands to
survey them and mark them as Amer
lean territory. 1t Is explained that the
islands have great strategtcal import
ance and for this reason the United
States under no circumstances would
part with them.

CHAPTER n.
i AM WARMED.

The dusk was falling az drew Up
before the inn Of Rhayader. dis
mounted. and the landlord. who was
standing at his door. came to greet
me. He called the hostler to lead my
horse to the stable. and went with
the man to see Whttesock made COM
Portable. AS stood In the entrance
OF the outbuilding, pony clAttefe0
into the yard behind me. A man came
out Of the house and hailed the rider,
and the conversation which followed
was OF much interest to me. By their
talk. the men were En6lish drovers.
and the newcomer averred, with many
round imprecations. that he was
food once more: that such was the
tangie OF hills and ravines beyond the
place that he had lost his way hope
lessly. and had 1t not been for lucky
glimpse OF the lights of the village. he
must have spent the night upon the
mountains. ,
thought over this and saw that the
girl in gray knew we'll what she spoke
of when she advised guide. II this
man whose business trained him to
find his way about in all kinds Of track
less places had lost his bearings. how
should I fare. an utter stranger to
mountain wilds? After all, reflected,
had thrown of my enemies clean
enough by now; would have gutde.
went into the house and met the
landlord In the passage.
Il want q private room." said I, and
slipped piece Of gold into his hand.
He turned aside under pretense Of
q cough. really to satisfy himself as
to the value Of the coin, and after u
glance at 1t, became instantly COM

Yes. indeed, sir. very we'll; Sir Ar

The man bit his lips and reflected.

saw a second door on the opposite
side and crossed to it. 1t opened d.
rcctly on the street. to which the win
dow ALTO looked. AS 1 stood the
doorway, a clatter of foofs arose and
my acquaintance of the afternoon
rode up. thought they were coming
to the inn, for they drew rein opposite
to me; but no, the doors Of house on
the other side of the way opened to
receive them, and the ponies were led
down a passage at the side. Ny supper
now arrived, and sat down to 1t and
made great play after my long ride
through the winter afternoon.

II has q broader knowledge Of the
world and practical affairs and Is less
infiexible against the demands TO mod
ern progress. The cardinal who Ia
leader in liberal views Is Agliardi, and
he will probably have the willing sup
port Of Cardinal Gibbons of Baltimore.
He Is even in favor of the reconcilia-
ton of the church and the Italian gov
eminent, but his liberality u SO pro-
nounced 1t will probably render his
elevation to the papal chair impossible.
Nevertheless, as representing the pro-
gressive section OF the church, he will
have some supporters in the conclave.
However, the most probable candl-
dates remain more or Less those whose
names have been mentioned since the
pope first became Ill. To Cardinal Gotti
the objection is made that as he be-
longs TO religious order his election
might, In view OF recent events, be con-
sidered challenge to France. Against
the chances of Cardinal Rampolla, the
papal secretary OF state, 1t Is urged
that Austria will try to exercise her
right to veto, as France would In the
case of Cardinal Serafino Vannutelli,
the grand penjtent'ary, who is consid-
cred to be the candidate of the triple
alliance.
Cardinal Svampa, archbishop of
Bologna. has been dropped, because
speaks with some difficulty.
Object to Motor Car.
Cardinal Ferrari, archbishop of
Milan, Ia not favored for the appar-
emily trivial reason TINT he uses a mo-
tor car, which Is not considered digni-
fed in a prince of the church. Car
dinal AElardi. bishop of Albano. is re-
garded as too democratic. Therefore,
unless Cardinal Gotti, who has always
been the most favored candidate. sue
ceeds in overcoming the objection to
him. II is likely that some one now un-
mentioned will be elected to succeed
Pope Leo.
The cardinals themselves, naturally,
maintain the greatest reserve, though
they all more or less repeat as though
next pope must be one combining tho
piety of Plus TX. with the Intelligence
of Leo XIII
A large force of servants Is busy pre-
pairing rooms on the ground floor of
the vatican for the use of the car
dinais and their servants at the APP
preaching conclave. One hundred and
eighty rooms will be necessary for their
accommodation.
In clearing out the accommodations
from these rooms the servants found
an immense rich carpet which was Civ
en- to the pope six years ago by the
queen mother of Spain. 1t will go to
the holy fathers nephews, as the gtver
specified 1t was a personal gift.
