clan to his holiness. and DR.. Ettore
Marchiafava, consulting physician at
the vatican, visited him Immediately
and directed that he remain in his
room
His holiness had appeared to be re-
covering normally from his recent in
disposition tho the recent extreme heat
had weakened him and prevented his
daily celebration at mass.
In the cooler hours of the day he has
visited the gardens. Last evening he
remained in the gardens until an hour
after sunset. Up to last night he was
determined to participate in the cele-
bration of the eighth anniversary Of
his coronation.
It had been planned that the pontiff
should wear only the ordinary mitre
and light vestment instead of the
triple crown and papal mantle. in order
that he might be less oppressed.
This morning the doctors decided
that in view Of the increased temper
ature today they would oppose the par
ticipation Of the pope In the function.
Accordingly 1t was arranged. that the
service should be conducted by Car
dinal Merry Del Val. the papal secre-
tary Of state. It was some hours later
that the pontif's condition showed an
unexpected change for the worse.
II Pope Plus X. lives until Tuesday

on June Is. 1883, was elected to the Of
flee Of cardinal and patriarch Of Ven
ice, from which he was raised to the
supreme head of the Catholic church.
AS bishop of Rome he became the
264th successor to ST Peter as head OF
the church. AS patriarch OF Venice
during the pontificate Of Leo Kill. he
became very popular. especially among
the poor. and he lost no opportunity

At a recent conference here Of medi-

Until we can succeed in determin-

can not expect to accomplish Its pre-

THE source Of entrance OF the germs
Of this disease appears to be thru the
upper air passages. especially the

1T would also appear that the most
probable means OF exit OF this germ is
thru the nose and throat. 1t Is, there
