to be adpitted into the papal family
circle, where court etiquette is entire
ly banished and his holiness appears
as a mere mortal With his defects
and virtues, showing in their true
lights.
How this has happened only those
who know the cardinal intimately are
in a position to realize. Among the
many explanations offered. there is
one that sounds highly plausible.
When he first came to Rome last fall,
Cardinal Falconio was but little
known to the prelate. Only a few
members Of the sacred college had
met him, n the majority Of these
were at first inclined to regard him
with suspicion. as he had been de-
picted al dangerously ambitious, un-
commonly shrewd and tirelessly ac-
tive.
1t was. when a few days after last
years consistory, an intriguing young
m%onsignor made a vague allusion to
the possibility Of Cardinal Falconio
succeeding Plus X. on the throne Of
st. Peter that matters were once for
all set right.
"aIy son." Cardinal Falconio is re-
ported as having answered. when
one has. like me. one foot already in
the grave, he has no other ambition
but that Of appearing before God free
from all SINS"
This answer was reported to the
pope and caused him to place the
cardinal on the list Of those who
would never annoy him with a request
for honorific Offices to which a great
deal Of personal influence Is attached.

who first succeeds in doing the fol-
lowing task: To walk from the Pier
There each competitor must buy a
meat pie and walk around tho Big
Stone and eat It,"
About a hundred entries were re-
ceived and the walk took place on
White Monday. Much excitement
prevailed. and a great cheer rose as
a local pedestrian was seen leading
the rest Of the crowd. His meat pie
was soon eaten as he walked around
the stone and he went to the Judge
for the $50.

Of his holiness in his hours of leisure.
The prominent part he played in the

THE DYNAMITE r

While it Is impossible at q distance,
and through the medium Of the ordi-
nary press reports. to follow a trial
such as that just closed at Indlanapo-
lis with SUFFICIENT ~closeness to pass
judgment on all Of its details, yet the
general character of the proceedings,
the absence Of criticism Of the fury
during the trial on the score Of bias.
and the evident desire Of the presiding
Judge to ascertain all the material
facts lead naturally to the conviction
that the verdict Of guilty as to thirty
eight of the defendants in the dyna-
mite cases is just verdict. warranted
by the facts.
On n point the defense wa ex-
ceedingly lame. This was in the ef-
fort to convince the Jury that there
was really no dynamite conspiracy.
that the dynamite outrages that were
perpetrated were the acts Of some
three or four men. and that these men,
solely responsible for the crimes that
had been committed. were now suf-

contention was absurd on It's face.
The existence of a widespread con-
sriracy was sc evident that additional
proof was scarcely necessary. The
real question to be determined was
whether or lot the men actually en-
gagged in the conspiracy had been iden-
tilted. The answer OF the jury is that
they have been. and that all but two

A NOBLE AR1srocRAY.

We on this side Of the water are
apt to boast that we have no aristoc-
racy. n to ridicule the a]ristocracy
Of Europe. Probably the usual and
popular conception here Of the Eu-
ropean a%ristocrat Is Of a mere Carl
cature Of a human being. empty Of
head and empty Of pocketbook. idle,
~dissipated, and whose sole occupation
is that Of hunting an American heir
ess whose dollars may be used to re-
pair the roof Of the ancestral palace.
Doubtless there ? persons who ap-
proach this conception. But. as IN all
other lines there are people and peo-
pie. and people differ greatly from
each other.
A short time & there died the
prince regent OF Bavaria, Luitpold,
who had reached a great age. and
who for many years had been the act
ual regning monarch Of the kingdom.
Otto. the king. is and has for years
been insane. and 1t has been necessary
for some other person to act In his
stead. Luitpold, the next in line, was
called on to act as regent. and he
has performed the duties Of royalty
with q singleness Of purpose and a
faithfulness to the interests Of his peo-
pie probably new excelled in the his
tory OF royalty. In contrast to the
~autocratic procurement of the Ger
man emperor that the sovereig's will

which this noble man acted that the
peoples good is the supreme law.
This principle guided his every act
during his long and useful life. BY
his unselfsh devotion to their interest
the prince SC endeared himself to the
people that he was importuned time
and again to assent to an edict declar.
ing the throne vacant by reason Of the
incapacity OF Otto. and to assume
himself the title. as he casually per-
formed the duties Of king. Firmly
he refused. He chose rather to act as
a substitute, and to perform his work
in the name Of another.
Ludwig. son Of the deceased prince,
and his successor as regent, seems to
be 2 man Of similar type, and he gives
promise Of following in his fathers
footsteps. He. also. has refused hon.
ors, and he is devoting himself to the
welfare Of the kingdom with the same
unselfshness that characterized his
father. In men Of this type we have
an aristocracy in whose existence the
world may rejoice. for such an arts
tocracy IL a promoter Of the highest
form Of human progress. There is
such q thing as a foolish and sense
less worship Of ancestry. The pos
session Of a long line Of grandfathers
IS sometimes considered as a SUFFICIENT
substitute for character on the part
of the descendant. With "aristo-
cratic" sentiments Of that character
sensible people have no sympathy. But
the man who can look back upon a
line Of ancestors Of the type Of Luit-
pold and Ludwig has something to in
spire his own soul to effort, something
to tie him to the better and more
honorable things Of life, an aid to the
formation Of character which lie not
to be despised.
