that Plus X. will create cardinals
Mgr. Giacomo Della Chiesa, arch
bishop of Bologna, and Mgr. Filippo
Giustini, secretary of the Congrega-
ton of the Sacraments, who have
been waiting for this honor for a
long time. Plus X. will name an
other cardinal in pectore, Mgr. Man
das Bello, patriarch of Lisbon. The
nomination which is arousing the
most interest in Roman Catholic cir
cles is that of Mgr. Giovanni Bres-
san, one of the four recent chap
lians of the pope and his private
secretary. Mgr. Bressan has been
the secretary of Plus Y. ever since
he was patriarch at Venice. He came
with him to the conclave in 1903
and has been his confidential friend
ever since. The reason for the spe-
cial interest taken in the probability
that he will receive a cardinals hat
lies in the fact that he does not be-
long to the high grade of monsig-
nori and would scarcely be consider
ed eligible to enter the sacred col
lege. Notwithstanding the opposi-
ton to such a nomination, it is stat
ed that Plus X. intends to make this
unusual choice.
The Eucharistic international con-
gress will meet at Vienna from the

anniversary of the day on which
King Sobiesky, in 1888, taving taken
the holy communion, moved his
troops towards Vienna for the me-
mOrable battle in which the Turks
were conquered. The 18th of Sep

Upon motion of Royster and
Connell the school board at an ad-
journed session Monday evening
voted that the term of the Chanute
grade schools should hereafter be
for nine months. In advocating
the addition to make the same
school year as has the high school
DR., Royster said that the extra
half year now required of the first
grade students could be eliminated.
Supplementary to the main propo
sltion the board therefore unani-
mously adopted the motion of
Royster and Anderson that the
grade school course consist of but
eight years.

BREAKS UP A COLD
IN SEVERAL HOURS
Most Effective and Harmless
Way to Cure a Severe Cold and
End All Grippe Misery.

There is not one grain of quinine in

Pape's Cold Compound is the result
of three years research at a cost of
more than fifty thousand dollars, and
contains no quinine, which we have
conclusively demonstrated is not effect
i've in the treatment of colds or grippe.
Take this harmless Compound as
directed, with the knowledge that there
is no. other medicine made anywhere
else in t world which will cure your
cold or end Grippe misery as promptly
and without any other assist: nee or

of Pape's Cold Compound which any
druggist in the world can supply.

Jury Rooms TO
Be Made Sound
PrOOfin Hudson

JERSEY CITY, Jan. 26Double
doors are being built on the jury room
of Supreme Court Justice Swayze's s
courtroom at the Court House here to
prevent "1eaks."
When County Collector stephen M,
Egan was tried for embezzling county
funds-money loaned to the late Robert
Davis and others in and around the
Court House-there were rumors as
to how the jury, that eventually con-
victed Egan, was voting.
Justice Swayze, it is said, became
aware of the leaks" in the Egan case
and since that time double doors were
ordered built on the jury room.
It is said that when County Register
John j. Mcmahon and John Daily, a
process server, go to trial for alleged
conspiracy to cheat and defraud the
township of North Bergen in school
site transactions on February 5 next,
the double doors will prevent any
leaks" from the jury room.
