TRAITS OF THE NEW POPE.
Anecdotes Which Tend to Give an idea Of
Plus KS Character.

Rome, Aug. 5-A few anecdotes show the
character Of Plus X. His Office as Patriarch of
Venice brought him from $1,000 to s., 400 year
which did not go far when he had paid the
bills for all Of his numerous charities. So when
he was called suddenly to leave Venice. he
often found himself without money. Once, when
he had come to Rome. he was without a cent
and did not know where to turn. He was finally
Obliged 10 borrow S400 from bank. and was in
a perfect fever until the debt was paid.
He has nepheWs John Baptist Sarto. who
although related TO him. is only the archpriest
of the small village OF Pessagno the birthplace
of Canova.
When people used to ask Cardinal sarto what
he would do if made Pope. he replied:
shall have white robes instead of red. that
VIII be the only change. I shall remain the
same Sarto
he seems TO have been sincere in thinking that
ne would not be made Pope. Monsignor Strait
mirovich, the Venetian preIate, accompanied him
to Rome and up to the door of the conclave,
and in taking leave, as usual, hoped that Car
dinal Sarto would be made Pope. His eminence
replied, laughing: No. No fear for me. Tell
me the number Of your telephone. and will let
you know who receives that honor" In ali Of
the excitement Of his first triumph he kept his
word and went TO the telephone personally, and
called up the number. only to find that Mon
signor StTatimirovich already knew the result
OF the ballotinS and was on his way to the
Vatican.
Plus X likes not only to walk but to climb. A
few days before he left Venice for Rome he
ascended Mount Grappa, $500 feet high. But
his greatest enjoyment is music He is a great
friend and admirer of Lorenzo Perosi. the di-
rector of the Pontifcal Choir. who was formerly
maestro at St. Marks, Venice. Perosi is chiefly
indebted to him for his musical career.
