Fearing a more successful invasion
of the despoilers, the Pope brought a
great number of slaves to Rome and
set them to work at restoring the

fication the Civitas Leoniana, or Leo
nine City, arose new quarter of
Rome, and a new protection destined
to be of great importance in later
centuries.
In the previous century, when Au-
relian had enclosed the city with
walls, the necessity for including the
Vatican had not arisen, and it remain
ed open and without the enclosures.
It never occurred to any of the Popes
that the ravaging bands would at
tempt to sack the Vatican, and the
necessity for its protection had not
occurred to any Pope until the time

there was no protection. Leo III
started the work, it was suspended
and in the meantime the Saracens
sacked the basilica. Leo w. resumed
the project, and with the help of EN-
peror Lothar succeeded. The expense
which was enormous, was distributed

Peck said the successful ascent Of
Mount Sorata would be the browning
event of her life. Five thousand DOL
lars was spent in making the expedi-
ton the best equipped of its kind,
care being taken to provide fer every
obstacle met by men who have at
tempted to but failed to reach Sorata's
top. In 1897 Miss Peck made a record
among the White mountains that has
never been surpassed. She climbed
the mountains of the presidential
range, going from one end to the
other, all in one day In the same
year Miss Peck went to Mexico and
assembled both Popocatapetl and Oriza-
ba, the latter being 1860 feet high.
She describes this ascent as not at
all dangerous, but very hard work.

PLAN OF ACTION AFTER LEGis-
LATURE MEETS NOT DE-
CIDED UPON.
SIX DEMOCRATIC SENATORS
WILL PROBABLY BE UN-
SEATED.

Denver, Colo, Jan. 4.-The cause Of
Gov. Peabody made a distinct gain
yesterday afternoon when the Repub-
p, lican caucus selected w. H. Dickson of
this city as speaker of the next house
of the colorado legislature. Although
MIR. Dickson has beer a resident of
this state for three years, he has not
been active in the interest of any Re-
publican faction, but his candidacy
was pushed by the friends of Gov. Pea
body and his selection by the caucus
is regarded with much c~omplacency
by the Peabody people.
Frank w. Frewen of Teller county
was the candidate of the Wolcott fac
ton, and he made a strong fight for
several hours. Matters were finally
adjusted tremendously, everybody in
the caucus joining in naming Dickson
for speaker, and he was
Nominated by AccIamation.
The Republican leaders have no yet
determined positively Upon their line
OF action after the legislature is
opened. 1t is possible that Harry c.
Riddle, II of the three members of
the election commission, may present
a report to the legislature declaring
that there was much fraud perpetra-
ted in Denver against the candidacy of
Gov. Peabody, while his two fellow
commissioners simply certify to the
election returns less the districts
thrown out by the supreme court. The
legislature would then have for it's
consideration practically a majority
and minority report on the result Of
the election in the city of Denver.
Another plan that is meeting with
favor among many members of the
legislature is to follow the action of
the supreme court
In Reviewing the Vote
in this city. AS soon as the supreme
court has finished with a certain mum
Der of precincts, the legislature is to
take them up and conduct it's own ex-
animation, along the lines similar to-
those employed by the supreme court.

Born and Healey, although it has not
yet been definitely decided that

Chairman d. B. Farley of the Re-
publican state central committee, de-
clared yesterday afternoon that it was
an error for anybody to claim that the
state constitution required the inau-
| guration of a new governor on the
first Tuesday after the first Wednes-
| day of the legislative session.
1.-THE state constitution expressly
provides" said Chairman Farley,
that the governor shall hold over
until his successor has duly qualified.
| There is no getting around that, and
| Gov. Peabody will hold his seat until
