PRECIOUS RELICS IN DANGER
eteps Being Taken by the Pope -
Insure the Safety Of Documents
In tho Vatican.

Father Ehrle, the well-known his
tofian, who has been prefect Of the
vatican library since 1895. is shortly
TO retire from his important post, and
Monsignore Ratti, director OF the Am
brosian library, OF Milan, has been Sc
Consequently destructive Bird, Held
lected by the pope to succeed him,
The manuscripts contained in the
vatican library number over forty
thousand and surpass not only in num-
ber but also In value and interest those
OF all other Libraries In the world
combined because they have been ac-
cumulated since practically the begin
ming OF the Christian era. 1t win be
necessary for Father Ehrle to remain
in charge for at least another couple
OF years In order that he may hand
over to his successor these manuscript
treasures, which must be identified
one by one.
The pope, on the suggestion OF this
retiring librarian, has availed himself
of this detailed examination OF manu-
scripts. which takes place whenever =
new prefect Is appointed, to reform the
methods heretofore adopted for their
preservation. The manuscripts are In
closed In low wooden cupboards called
"armadii" about fvs feet high, the
doors of which are richly decorated,
according to the plan in use for CEN
turtles In Rome. which was to combine
art galleries and libraries and thus
give room to hang pictures on the
walls over the books.
While every precaution Is taken for
the preservation OF the manuscripts
from moths and dampness this old sys-
tenn Of keeping them has it's great
drawbacks in case OF fire, as the cup
boards are naturally not fireproof.
Father Ehrle suggested to the pope that
every cupboard when possible should
be converted into a strongbox or safe
perfectly Ereproof and that two or
three large rooms should be specifical-
ly built with walls covered with steel
plates or other non-infsmmabiet mate
rial. to which the manuscripts that can
not be kept In cupboards could be re-
moved.
His suggestion has been fully ap-
proved by the pope, who still recalls
the IRE in the vatican, which but for
the Intervention Of the Italian firemen
might have had disastrous results,
and the necessary arrangements have
now men made to have the vatican
manuscripts preserved in such way
as to insure their safety and integrity
