power.
!. The consistory was shortened as much
as possible, and only lasted about thirty
five minutes. All the cardinals of the
curia were: invited to the vatican half all
hour before the pope's appearance, and
they assembled In the consistory hall in
order of precedence, forming striking
picture. The entrance Of the pope, clad
in white vestments and surrounded by his
trusted companions in their red robes,
gave a finishing touch to the scene. After
receiving the homage Of those present,
the pontiff recited a prayer and then pro-
ceeded to the nomination Of the new car
dinals
The traditional secrecy was maintained,
tho now 1t Is largely matter Of form.
The pope proposed each new cardinal,
members Of the sacred college signifying
their assent by raising their caps.
The New Cardinals.
The following were created cardinals:
Monsignor Fischer. archbishop of CO.
fogne; ,Monsignor Taliani, papal nuncio at
Vienna; Monsignor Cavicchioni, secretary
signor Ajuti, papal nuncio at Lisbon;
Morsignor Nocella, secretary Of the con-
sistorial congregation; Monsignor Katsch-
taller, archbishop of Salzburg, Austria,
and Most Rev. Perroe Espinoa, arch
bishop Of Valencia.
The pope transferred Cardinal Sera-
fino Vannutelli from the bishopric of
Frascati to that Of Porto Santa; Rufina,
which is of higher rank.
Cardinal Satolli was transferred from
the titular bishopric Of Santa Maria in
Aracocti, to the diocese of Frascati, near
Rome. the summer residence OF the Ro-
man aristocracy.
Afterward the pope announced the NOM
nations of several archbishops who had
been appointed by brief. The pontiff APP

Kissed Pope's Foot.
At the conclusion OF the consistory the
pope went to the throneroom, where, sur
rounded by the cardinals and the papal
court, he received the homage Of the new
archbishops and bishops. The ancien,
ceremonies were observed, each of the
prelates kissing the pontiffs foot and re-
ceiving the apostolic benediction

King, Peter at present. In fact, these

Booths Liquor Habit.

Peter Van Vechten, for sixty years
and strong of memory, recently called
to mine some incidents in the life of
Junius Brutus Booth, who was a warm
friend of his family's, says The New
York Commercial.
I'm his later years. said the Mil
waukeean, mo one dared to play in
Richard the Third with the older Booth
except an actor named Scott, who was
an expert swordsman and could cope
any time with the great tragedian. I
think it was not Forrest, but another
actor whose name I cannot now recall,
who was chased from the stage by
Booth. I lived in Catskill, N. Y, at the
time and remember reading about the
incident.
Booth, the elder, was a remarkable
man. He could read a page of a news
paper and recite every word of it after
a single reading. He often made bets
| with strangers that he could accomplish
the feat-and he always won.
His stage managers a to resort
to all sorts of means to keep Booth
sober enough to play his part at night.
They would not give him money and
the saloon keepers, through the fore
sight of the manager, would refuse him
credit. On one occasion he went into
a saloon and offered to pawn himself
for whiskey. The saloon keeper agreed
to let him have all the liquor he wanted
if he would agree not to cave the house
until the bill was paid. This arrange
ment was made, and Booth stayed in

G. S. Tyack, in Lore and Legend of the
English Church. gives several samples
of the use of such materials in charms
and medicine. A woman's front tooth,
taken from a graveyard. was reputeo
to protect a man from toothache; SINH
larly, a mans front tooth was a pre-
ventive for a woman. This supersti-
ton, like the next to be mentioned, was
common in Shropshire. 4 necklace Of
elder twigs from a churchyard was a
talisman against whooping cough. A
ring made of three nails taken from

beliefs fingered a long time. In the life

With the death penalty in full force

change of policy would be advisable.

gress.-TrOy On. " Daily Press.
The above shows hat our unenviable
reputation is spreading far and wide.
The Press is in error, though, as to the
cause of the many murders in our
state. The many cases in which peo-
PIE take the law into their own hands
by committing murder shows that they
arc not opposed to the death penalty.
The root of the trouble is the failure of
jurors to convict of murder in the first
degree n the light sentences inflicted
for m~anslaughter and murder in the
second degree. The remedy the Troy
paper suggests is the wrong one. What
we need is a few legal executions in

CuriOsities of Medicine.

A month or two g considerable inter
est was reused by the public auction Of
the recipe of a we'll known pill. The Sc
cret was sold for $4,000, a somewhat
large sum for a mere recipe, though, as
was pointed u at the time, not an IN
parallelled price. The recipe for the
celebrated Worcester sauce and for the
Brakeman method Of curing hams.
for instance, originally realized larger
amounts. One fact was, however,
brought home to the public, that the
English are a medicine-taking people.
The remedies for diseases were, until
recently, often of a crude kind, but it is
believed that c~Ommon-Sense notions re-
| specting cleanliness, exercises, and diet
ave caused many specifics to disappear
before the more excellent way of pre-
vention.
One is astounded to read that as late
as 1858 the London College of Physicians
recognized curative properties in human
skulls, especially if the owners had died
from violence. DR.. TOope of Oxford
who collected skulls from Wiltshire bar
rows, gleefully records, Il dug up many
bushels, with which 1 made a noble

English Hippocrates, in his 'Praxis
Medical recommends such %effcacious
substances as the following: Earth
worms, snakes, toads, vipers' flesh,
skins Of hens gizzards, hogs lice, dried
human flesh, the heart of a mole, and
crabs eyes. Crabs eyes, which were
sold at 5s. 4d. a pound, are spoken of in
Pechy's Art of Physick' 069O as good
