The VATICAN LIBRARY Y
THE OLDEST INSTITUTION OF IT'S
KIND IN THE WORLD. 100000
VOLUMES AND $4,000 MANU-
h SCRIPTS. A NEW DIRECTOR.

u 1t has been announced that the Rev
e1 end Fancesco Ehrle, S. J., Prefect of
the Vatican Library has resigned that
important position and is to be sue
ceeded by the Director of the AM
brosian Library at Milan.
In this connection it may not be
uninteresting to note that the Vatican
Library occupies unique position
among the great libraries of the world.
Though not the most extensive, yet it
possesses 100000 printed volumes and
$4,000 manuscripts. The Bibliotheque
Rationale at Paris has three million
volumes and $4,000 manuscripts;
while that of the British Museum is
said to possess million and half
Of books and 100000 manuscripts.
Nevertheless, the Vatican Library
is the oldest institution of it's kind
in Europe, and it's origin dating
from the early days of Christianity,
when it was really the Library of the
Apostolic See. While everyone praises
the collections of invaluable treasures
it possesses, it is common thing to
say-and, as one writer puts it, sig
nificant Of one trait of the Papacy''-
that this splendid collection still lacks
frequently that it has obtained ere
dence amongst those who do not en-
quire too deeply.
Not one of the greater libraries
rich in manuscripts in all Europe" "
writes De Rossi in his preface to the
publication of a catalogue of Greek
and Latin manuscripts in two volumes
published in 1884, is furnished with
Inventories and indexes more copious
and useful than that of the Vatican.
The truth of this fact, well known to
the learned of every nation who have
adopted the Vatican catalogues, and
experienced by myself in the research
es of manuscripts in Italy, France,
Germany, Austria and England, will
seem strange and scarcely credible to
those who credit vulgar prejudices OF
/ know not what tenebrous chaos,
| that the very officials of the library
would conceal the unexplored treas
ures Of the Vatican book presses"
| And he further relates that the his
| tory of the Vatican catalogues should
begin from the most distant ages, and
very long indeed before that of the
celebrated Platina, who described the
manuscripts of the Apostolic Library
committed to his care and collocated
| in building quite worthy of them by
Pope Sixtus the Fourth. These inven
tories of the Fifteenth and subsequent
centuries are numerous. They are
nowadays regarded only as precious
documents of literary history: for tht
luse OF the library and for daily re
searches we possess inventories mucl
more voluminOus, compiled success
lsively in the course of nearly three
centuries, from the 18th to our owl
i days.

cautions have been taken in the hos
pital of TripoH twenty-five cases have
already proved fatal. The Apostolic
Delegate has dispensed all those in
Tripoli from the obligation of fasting
and abstinence, and large supplies of
medicines, tonics and disinfectants are
arriving from Naples.
The Vatican and Spain.
The relations of the Vatican and
Spain continue to be unsatisfactory.
Senior Naverro Revertero, the Spanish
ambassador to the Vatican, had long
interview the other day with Senor
Canalejas. He afterwards declared
that the international question so OBJ
sessed the Spanish Government that
the Vatican question had been entirely
shelved in consequence, while the
Ambassador is understood to have told
the Premier that it should be settled
without delay. Senor Revertero will
not return to Rome until December,
when he may have something definite
to lay before the Vatican Of course,
the success of the Monarchist cause
at the municipal elections in Spain has
greatly strengthened the Governments
hands against the Socialists, but it has
not done SO in the matter of the dis
agreement with the Vatican on the
status of the religious Orders, be-
cause those electors of Spain who
support the Monarchy are they who
are also ardent Catholics, and resent
Senor Canalejas' method of dealing
with the religious question. The Par
liamentary elections take place on De-
cember 18th, and an urgent appeal is
being made to the Catholics of Madrid
to do their duty and vote against the
enemies of the Church and of the
country. The clergy are pointing out
that in the present situation the duty
of recording the vote is Ione which
binds in conscience every one who
possesses the power to do SO.
Expulsion of Religious.
1t France the one subject is the
expulsion of the Little Sisters and
other female religious. While the
Sisters of Compiegne and one or two
other scattered groups consisting of a
mere handful of nuns who are accused
of reconstituting their congregations
have been forcibly elected from their
lodgings in various towns during the
last week nothing further has been
done to the Little Sisters of the AS.

Taken to Home of
Father.

RICHMOND, Nov. 25.-Arrange-
ments are completed today for the
burial of Henry Clay Beattle, jr., in
Maury Cemetery. beside the wife for
whose murder he paid the penalty in
the electric chair yesterday.
Shortly after 0 o'clock yesterday the
family, through Rev. Mr.. Fix. the
Presbyterian pastor, had claimed Beat
ties body, and it was %prompaly sur
rendered to an undertaken, the police
driving away a morbid crowd that had
withstood a pouring rain to witness
the removal. The body remained for
some hours in the undertaking estab-
lishment, a police guard being found
necessary at the doors there to pre-
vent an onrush of the morbid.
There the clothing that Beattie had
worn while seated in h death chair
was removed and the body dressed in
a suit that had been familiar to the
eyes of his father before the arrest.
The body was placed in an expensive
coffin and taken to Beattie's home. 1t
was an hour afterward before the
white-haired man went slowly to the
casket and locked down on the face OF
his son. Twelve hours before he had
seen the boys face in life. But it had
been a face writhing In suppressed
agony. The dead face was peaceful.

NEW YORK, Nov. 25.-Theodore
Roosevelt, when asked regarding the
report that he nay again be a candi-
date for President. said that a state
ment might be made as follows;
Colonel Roosevelt finds it difficult to
understand the comment that has fol-
lowed his article in the Outlook regard
ing national laws and business inter
ests. He has said exactly the same
thing many times before.
1T can be stated that Colonel Roose-
Welt has reviewed many letters indicat-
ing the willingness of the writer's to
give him political support If such is
desired. 1t can be stated that Colonel
Roosevelt today received a letter from
a certain United States senator offering
the full political support of the senator

such steps,"

Pickles, Ham, Bacon and Onions
Are Pleasing to Some
PaIates.

Az an appetizer let us start off with
Frederick Pickel, AZ Bruce street, and
then perhaps a slice of ham, the Milan
Ham kind, found at 214 Court street.
irving Bacon is another popular name
sake of the meat that accompanies the
eggs on your breakfast plate. The
directory says he lives at 615 Hunter
don street.
We think that George onions is not
an unusual name, but that onions are
unusually good to have on the table.
The one mentioned may be found at
SIT Frelinghuysen avenue.
Those of you who refused the drinks
during the meal can finish with coffee
and cake. Davis Coffee lives at 252
Broome street and Frank c. Cake at
81 whiting street.
In the meantime, however, It would
be well to keep in mind that your food
should be properly seasoned. George
Pepper, 255 Roseville avenue, is a good
one to head the list, and be followed
by Stephen Papricka, 121 West street.
The latte name is rather hot and
should be used sparingly. julius Gin
namon, 5S7 High street, is another good
one to keep in mind. AS to Thomas
Cloves. 417h washington avenue, all
that may be said is that cloves are
very useful. Minnie Curry, 80 Astor
street, is a fit companion to John
Sage, 7S4 Broad street, n finishes up
the list of our interesting little group
OF names that help make up the din
ner table.

New York city, was given by Miss Alice
Barrows. The bureau has two objects.
the obtaining of positions for college
and specially trained women and the
investigating of the kinds and number
of positions available for women work
ers. Miss Barrows said that since its
opening on September Is 1876 applicants
have registered and over 100 calls have
come from employers. The movement,
which is at present in the experimental
stage, is supported by the alumnae as
sociations of all the women's colleges
situated in the East.
The speaker called attention to the
fact that 301 of the 304 occupations car
ried on in the United States are open
to ONE That most of the women
workers are to be found in twenty of
the 301 is due to the fact that women
are not ready to take risks. IT is be-
lieved that the work of the bureau will
not only raise the wages of all classes
of women workers, but will also better
the conditions of labor.

SOLD WIFE"
IS STRIPPED
OF HER POSE

DENVER, Colo, Nov. 25.-When Ger
trude Gibson Patterson resumed the
stand today to face the continuation of
the eross-examination of Special
Prosecutor Horace G. Benson more
than a little of that haze of romance
and suffering that has softened the
picture in which she is the most
prominent figure had been dispelled.
Until yesterday afternoon she had
been to most of those watching the
progress of her trial for the shooting OF
her husband a trail woman of appeal
ing beauty, who had been made the
pawn of two men, the one buying her
girlhood and the other selling her wife
'hoou.
On direct examination she had told
the part of her husband. She had told
of his incessant demands that she get
money for him from the millionaire
admirer of her girlhood and Of the
brutal beatings that followed her re-
~fusals.
Today when she resumed the stand
to face the pitiless questioning under
which she had writhed for three hours
yesterday, the story of her husbands
brutality had lost much Of its force.
Against it the prosecution had intro
duced her own letters, written 10 her
husband on dates subsequent by only
a few days to those on which she had
testified he had administered beatings
so severe that she was confined to her
bed. Those letters, full of love and en-
dearment, told him that he was the
only cure for her unhappiness, de-
clared that they must never he separa-
ted again, mot even for a single
night and spoke of the bungalow she
had fitted up for him. with the little
sleeping porch just off my room
Just be happy. Charlie. she
wrote. land the way to be happy is to
know that you have got the best little
loving wife in the whole world
Those letters raised the %unspoken
question How could she write in such
a strain with the bruises of his beat
ings still upon her body" and that
question doomed large in the minds Of
many of those who watched her on the
witness stand today.
In his effort TO tear DOWN MIS-. RAJ
terson's testimony, Prosecutor Benson
has at his command letters from the
witness to her husband, letters from
Patterson TO his brother in Chicago, ia
which the dead man freely discusses
his affairs, and Patterson's diary and
other papers found among his effects.
on much of her story she still awaits
cross-examination. particularly on the
events Immediately preceding the

defense differ widely.
Sensation-seekers, stimulated by the
developments Of yesterday, ~journeyed

throngs today.
