Fish Dinner Great Feature-Pope Re
membered by Venetians.

Christmas eve in Rome was spent in the
gayest manner. The whole town was given
up to the most sumptuous of fish dinners,

The pope received fifty pounds of fish
from Venice as present from his former
Pensioners.
At the Qufrinal everybody was busy pre-

and queen, the queen mother and the royal

After glorious weather during the past
week the midnight rain interfered with the
