General Putnam who planned and
matured the Ohio Company, which
went out into the then wild western
country and settled the town of
Marietta in 1886. Putnam's old house
here still stands, the house from
which was issued the call for the
convention which led to the organi-
zation of the Ohio company, and over
the threshold of which the famous
old soldier went to lead that company
to the great Northwest. The house
is now public memorial, with its
rooms admirably restored and filed

BLACK POPE SOON
COMING TO AMERICA
Head OF the Order OF Jesuts Plans VisitOher Dign
teries of the Catholic Church at Rome will Come to
the United States to Investigate Conditions

for advice to the very revered father,
and though there is permanent stan
of secretaries, the general is supposed
to pass every reply. Moreover, he
mus control men, many of whom are
more brilliant than himself, and tre-
mendously strong-willed, and in ad-
dition he has to conduct the external
relations of the society. The polit-
ical influence of the BLACK Pope" is
matter of history.
Another ecclesiastical dignitary
who will soon go to the United States
is Cardinal Vannutelli, who will rep
resent the Vatican at the Eucharistic
Congress at Pittsburg next month.
Cardinal Vincenzo annutelli should
mot be confused with his better
known ard more ambitious brother,
Cardinal Serafino Annutelli, who. is
Prefect of the Congregational Coun-
lcil The two brothers are the grand
sons of a man who rose from an al
together menial position to that of
major domo of the first Napoleon's
most beautiful sister, Princess Pauline
lBorghese. She was as free in her
gifts and her expenditure as in her
affairs of the heart, and under the
circumstances 1t is not astonlsh-
ing that her factotum should have
amassed in her service in the large
fortune which his grandsons, the two
Cardinals, enjoy this day.

Rome, Sept. 14.-Practlcal con-
firmation has been received of the
rumor that the BLACK Pope" as the
General of the Jesuit Order is called,
will soon pay visit to the houses
of his order in America. Francis
Xavier Wernz, German by birth,
is the present head of the order, hav-
ing been elected just year ago in
succession to the late Father Martin.
At the time of his election Father
Wernz was rector of the Gregorian
university here. He has devoted
himself principally to canon law, and
is considered one of the greatest liv-
ing authorities on this subject.
The Jesuits are a remarkable body
of men. The internal regulations Of
the society are very similar to those
of an army in respect of obedience
and executive. There are at the
present time about $500 in the world
collected in twenty-five provinces
under the control of provincials. Ev-
cry official except the general, who
is elected for life, and can only be
deposed for some moral, personal err
ror (such a thing has not occurred
in the 400 years of It's existence) is
elected for term.
The general of the society is one
of the hardest worked men in hard
working world. Every member OF
the society may write in complaint or

WEEKLY LETTER FROM
THE NATIONS METROPOLIS
Returns from Circulation Department of Gothams
Library Shows New York is Becoming More
and More Literary Dining In Wall
Street-Women and Batteries.

New York, Sept. 14.-New York
is becoming more and more literary,
and its taste for literature is stead
ily turning TO the serious books OF
science and history, to the class
les, and away from works Of cur
rent fiction. The evidence Of this
tendency is to be found in the re-
turns of the circulation department
of the New York Public Library,
with its forty odd branches scat
tered throughout the city. -Four
years ago the number Of volumes
given out by this department
reached total Of 2,332,725; this
year the number will approximate
j,5OO,OOO0, an increase that is un-
paralleled in the history of any
library in the world. During these
four years II branch Libraries have
been added to the public library
system, a fact which explains in
large measure the phenomenal in
crease in the circulation Of vol
umes in so short a space Of time.
Twenty years ago, before the for
nation of the New York Public
Library, the number Of volumes
given out by the free circulating
Libraries was considerably under Il
million. Today, with branch librar-
les in every part Of the city, the
popularity of current works of fic-
ton is confined almost entirely to
the upper Westside. This popularity
was sufficient TO give the first
place over all books in the city
four years ago to Parker's Fright
cf Way". This year the favorlte
so far is Chambers "Fighting
Chance. " Among books other than
fiction the favorite in 1908 was
Seton Thompson's Olives Of the
Hmted;" this year it is Ibsen. But
the supremacy of the novel with
the reading public is slowly dwind-
ling. The total percentage of adult
fiction circulated by the libraries
last year was 81, decrease OF 2
per cent as compared with the cir
culation four years ago. There was
an increase in science of l per
cent and in juvenile fiction Of ,
per cent. Fiction is least popular
on the lower East side Of the city.
There the current novel is almost
unknown, while "Uncle Toms Cab
in is still the unquestioned favor
ite. The largest of all the city 5
circulating libraries is down there
in the Educational Alliance Build
ing in East Broadway. This lib
rary was founded 81 years ago by
the Aguilar Society and the Young
Mems Hebrew Association. On its
shelves are over 10000 volumes hav-
ing a circulation according to last
years report, Of more than 24O,-
600.

The result Is magnificent. The
roll ot the hills, the sweep of the
drive and the green banks of the
Hudson, with the broad river and
its picturesque shipping in between,
all combine to win the enthusiastic
admiration of the stranger. AC
great cost the city has bridged
the Manhattan street valley with
Il broad viaduct. The Consolidated
Gas Company, also, doubtless at
great cost, has constructed two huge
tanks upon the upper side Of the
ravine. One stands cheek by iowl
with the viaduct, the other a few
hundred yards away. Lifting their
Iungainly bulk several hundred feet
in the air, high above the level Of
the driveway, these huge, ugly
spots interfere with and offend the
view from every side. From the
crest Of the hill smmomted bv
the Grant Monument the driveway
sweeps down over the broad via
duet and up TO the heights be-
yond. Yet this was the spot chosen
