COST OF POPE's wARDROBE
Onicial Garments Made in Building
Near the Vatican Palace.

Rome. 1t is not generally known
that the Pope. modest and unassuming
as he Is. is obliged to spend $50. 900
per year for dress. and that the ma
terial and character OF his Official gar
ments, moreover, compel him to
employ a small army of seamstresses,
lacemakers. etc.
From time immemorial the Official
wardrobe 'of the Pope's has been
manufactured in building near the
VATICAN palace under the eyes of a
papal chamberlain who looks after
the precious stones and gold and si,ve,
ornaments used on the poutificai
robes. There is a male had tailor
but the sewing and embroidery is due
exclusively bv women aud girls.
As the pontiff wears only white gar
ments, constant renewal of his every
day wardrobe Is a matter OF necessity

black alpaca sleeve protectors in

stains.

VIII Speak Mt Chicago.

Governor Wilson vent to Louis
lville this morning and left this after
noon for New York. He goes east on
important law business. He will re-
turn by way of Chicago, where he
will make speech at the Hamilton
club banquet en Friday night. Secre-
tary Taft will attend this banquet.
Governor Wilson probably will re-
turn TO Kentucky one week from to-
morrow. He has worked hard dur
| ing the last ten days and is in need
of rest, which will be given him
by his trip out of the state.
1t is said that Governor Wilson
lis worried over the condition of the
treasury, which he fears may not be
able to stand the strain OF the appro-
priations which were made by the re-
cent legislature. He is said to be
considering the necessity of an extra
session to make some provision to pay
the appropriations, but IT is regarded
as probable that he will find none,
enough to take care OF the expenses
and that it will not be necessary to
lcall an extra session. The total
amount of appropriations made by
the last legislature was $1,44S, 400.
The following appropriation bills
passed by the general assembly were
signed by the governor and becam,

the situation well in hand. The gov
.ernor is quoted as saying that he
knows who many of the night riders
are, and knows the one man who is
behind the whole movement. He is
said to have evidence enough to con-
Wet this man and three others who
have been the chief lieutenants in the
movement of the night riders.
Governor Wilson talks freely TO
his callers on the subject of the trou-
bles in the tobacco districts and is re-
ported to give some startling infor-
nation. such as sixteen men haying

LEAVES ON AN EASTERN TRIP

Frankfort, KY. March 30.-By the
use of detectives and troops, which
have been employed in the nighb
ridden sections of the state for sew
eral weeks, Gov, A. Z. Wilson be-
lieves that he has settled the troubles
in the tobacco districts, and is conf
dent that he has evidence enough to
convict many of the men who have
been guilty of pight-riding in several
of the western Kentucky counties.
Governor Wilson told caller that he
expected to have many men in the
penitentiary within the next few
months, as he had evidence enough
to convict.
The governor is quoted as being
well satisfied with the conditions as
they exist now, and confident that
night riding will stop. He is said to
have told his caller that he had in
formation that sixteen night riders
had been killed in western eKntucky
lduring the last few weeks in raids.
The governor will not give out tina

details of these battles between the
raiders and the troops, and will not
even tell where the men were killed.
Cox in Frankfort.
Lieut.. Gov W. II. Cox, of Mays
vile, reached Frankfort this morn
ing and will be governor of Ken
lucky for a week or ten days during
the absence of Governor Wilson, who
left for New York. Lieutenant-Gov-
ernor Cox said positively that he
would not pardon Caleb Powers, and
that if any pardon was issued 1t
would be done by Governor Wilson.
II had been reported that an effort
would be made to have Governor Cox
issue the pardon during the absence
of Governor Wilson, but the acting
governor checked this report as soon
as he reached the city.

He crossed Potomac's raging flood
And rested midst the Frederick farms.
But Barbara Frietchie's palsied hand
Ne'er waved Union flag that day;
And jackson, leading his command,
PASSED. through another street and way.
Where, Fredericksburg lies on the plain
He dealt a swift and deadly blow,
And drove an army back again
Whose blood encrimsoned winters snow.
Then came the fatal Tenth of May;
And as he rode outside his line,
A hasty volley from the Gray
Came e'er they heard the countersign.
Wounded to death, yet patient, calm,
They bore him from the battlefield;
He blessed his baby with the arm
That nevermore a sword should WELD.
A Christian pure, hero strong,
His genius passes writer's praise.

membered in this way those who fell
on both sides as we'll as their own.
For a number of years past the
hundreds of graves of unknown dead
In the cemetery at Winchester, Va,
have been beautified, although in not
q few repose the bodies of Northern
men who lost their lives in the sew
eral battles which were so bitterly
fought in this portion of Virginia's
valley, Some years ago a monument
was erected, largely through the sub
scriptions of the people in the vicin-
aty, which is one of the most attrac-
tive in the South, On it is this sig
nificant inscription: None knew

was erected to these nameless ones.
While the Government has done
much in recent years in adjoining

which are located at Antietam,

tumultuous rout. Blazer, of course,
had to go with them. He made an
attempt when he reached the village
of Myerstown to rally the fugitives;
but in vain; they kept on in head
long flight.
Blazer rode fleet horse and was

men, whose horse was the fastest,
youth, sgd Ferguson, at last over
took him. sgd had fired the last shot
from his pistols. The flying horse
man leaned over on the neck of his
steed. sgd rose in his stirrups and
delivered a powerful blow on the
neck of his foe.
Blazer fell from his horse; the
race was over; and his career ended
there.
This affair was as fatal to Blazer
as Culloden was to Charles Edward.
The Spencer carbines had been of
little use at close quarters.
Blazers loss was twenty-four
killed, twelve wounded and sixty-two
prisoners and all their horses. The
extraordinary number killed was on
account of the fight being hilt to hilt.
However great may have been
Captain Blazers chagrin at this de-
feat, he took his capture in good part.
The victors and vanQuisbed were
soon on the friendliest terms. Blazer
and each of his men carried canteen

tents with my men, and before they
had crossed the mountain it was a

MEMORIAL DAY.
How II is Observed in the South.


W N the North they sometimes call
1t Decoration Day, but in the
South 1t is always Memorial Day.
Both have the same meaning,
however, to the old soldiers of the
country, who remember the dark
years of the early part of the six
ties, and Memorial Day in the South
Is being more generally observed
each year, for the custom is being
handed down from the veterans
themselves to organizations OF
their sons, who join in the process
ions and take their part in the beau
tifying of the cemeteries. Each year
hnds thousands of those who wore
the gray uniforms falling in line on
Memorial Day, to tramp perhaps
three or four miles in order to pay
this annual tribute, not only to their
dead comrades, but to many of the
men in blue who were buried near
the scenes where they fought.
The United Confederate Veterans,
which is the main organization of
the old soldiers of the South, still
number about 10000 in camps scat
tered all the way from Maryland to
Texas. In recent years many of the
largest camps situated near burial

transformation. This is especially
notable at Atlanta, where the resting
place of nearly every Southern sol
der has been marked in some way.
1t also contains several of the finest
monuments of this character in the
United States. At Marietta, Ca,
where thousands of nameless South
ern troops are buried, the graves are
marked with blank stones in order
that they may not be forgotten, and
yearly these are decorated as well as
those which contain inscriptions.
