SARTO ELECTED PONTIFF
choice OF College of Cardinals Falls on the
Patriarch of Venice-Leo's Successor
Assumes Title of Plus X.

Rome, Aug. 5.-The conclave after be-
ling in session for four days, on Tuesday
elected Giuseppe Sarto, patriarch of Ven
ice, as pope to succeed Leo XIII, and he
now reigns at the vatican and over the
Catholic world as Plus. x. At night all
Rome was Illuminated in his honor.
His election and the assumptions of his
holy Office were marked by a striking
demonstration and impressive cere-
monies at the vatican, which only end
Led in the evening.
The election of the patriarch of Ven
ice was unanimous. After Mondays
aRailot it was a foregone conclusion that
he wasAthe only candidate sufficiently
acceptable to all to secure the necessary
tWo-thirds, which the laws of the church
require. One Of the cardinals said that
he believed Plus x. would follow the
broad lines of Leo's policy, although not
likely to accentuate it. This voices the
general feeling here, which is one of
satisfaction.

SKETCH OF THE NEW POPE.
The of Leo XIII. Said to Be
q Man of Liberal Views.

The Successor of Leo XIII. Said to Be
a Man of Liberal Views.
Giuseppe Sarto, the new pope, was
ern Italy, June 2, 1885, and was created
cardinal by Leo XIII. at the consistory
of June IL, 1898, receiving the title of S.
Bernardo dele Terma. He is also
patriarch of Venice since June, 1893, and
bishop Of Mantua. He belongs to the &C.
c~lesiastical congregations of bishops
and regulars, sacred rites, indulgences
and sacred relics.
Pope Plus x. is very learned in the &C.
clesiastical doctrines, is modest, ener-
getic, a good administrator and or
ganizer, a patron of the arts and his seri-
BUSINESS always has been proverbial.
Early in April Pope Leo, in a CONVEX
sation with Father Perosi, the Italian
composer, said in speaking of Cardinal
Sarto:
Hold him very dear, Perosi, is in the
future he will be able to do much for
you. We firmly believe he will be our
successor"
He has been known for many years as
! one of the greatest preachers in the
church.
Plus x. enjoyed great popularity in
his diocese, and was honored by all for
Ibis purity. for the strict uprightness of
his life and for liberal ideas. He is a
modest and agreeable man, highly Gull
| tivated, kind-hearted, still strong and
robust in spite of his GO years. He has
lever taken much part in the political
and public life of the church, but has
divided his time between study and good
works.
Although most faithful to the holy
see, he was presented to the king and
queen of Italy in Venice. He may be
considered among the more liberal
members of the Italian episcopate and
sacred college. He is rather timid in
expressing an opinion. 1t is said that
Leo XIII. always thought very highly
of him and sided with him on one oc-
casion when Sarto disapproved of Ram
polla's policy.

Ono Railroads Method.

Now that the different railroads are an
nouncing low rates to the Pacific coast it Is
interesting to note the different styles Of
advertising and the arguments adopted by
the various lines to attract the attention
of the public. The Great Northern rail
way has announced a round trip rate to Sc
attic and other Puget Sound points of
5000 from Chicago and $500 from st.
Paul, the passenger being granted liberal
stop-over privileges and diverse routes re-
turning. These tickets will be on sale Aug.
l to IA inclusive, with Oct. Is as the final
return limit. An additional charge Of
$11 90 is made for return through Califor-
mia.
No other railroad offers more induce
ments to the sightseer OF is favored with
more sceinc attractions than the Great
Northern railway. Nevertheless, while
all the other lines are exploiting their
health resorts and scenic attractions, the
newspaper advertisements and a very
handsome leafet published by tho Great
Northern treat wholly on the industrial
conditions and opportunities offered by the
state of Washington. This advertising OF
Of the Great Northern certainly bespeaks
the policy Of that company, and if other
western railways would follow Mr.. Hills
campaign of industrial education it would
be far better for the West and undoubtedly
be an indirect and lasting benefit to the
railroad companies Milwaukee, Wis.

What Was ItY

Frairpoint, Miss, Aug. 3rd.-One of tho
~strangest cases ever reported occurred here
recently. The son of Mr.. G. L. Butler was
very i'll. The doctor said he had some dis
ease of the spinal cord, and treated him for
two months, but he grew worse all the time,
and finally, the doctor told Mr.. Butler that
he did not know what was the trouble.
The boy would wake up in the night and
cay that he was dying. He would be nerv.
GUS and trembling and want to run out of
the house, saying he saw ugly things which
frightened him.
His father was very much discouraged till
one day he saw a new remedy called Dodd's
Kidney Pills advertised, and he at once
bought some and began to give them to his
boy.
He used altogether eight boxes before he
was entirely cured. He has not been
troubled since. Mr.. Butler says:
II feel it my duty to tell what Dodd's Kid.
ney Pills have done for my boy. All this
remedy needs is a fair chance and it will
speak for ITSELF"
