Lawyer Who Drew Up Will of Leo
XIII. Summoned to the Vatican for
the Supposed Purpose Of Doing the
Same for Pope Plus X.
Rome, April 17-The pope was dis
turbed more than usual by his cough.
The temperature varied frequently
during the forenoon. Dr. Amici visit
I'd him again just before noon and
found that an almost imperceptible
rise had taken place since early
morning.
The morning bulletin from attend
ing physicians on the condition of the
pope was as follows:
The holy father slept TRANQUILITY
for several hours during the night. In
the morning his temperature was un.
der 81. The catarrhal affection is no
worse and expectoration continues
easy The condition of the heart is
good"
The lawyer, Patriarca, who repre-
sents the holy see, was summoned to
the Vatican. The same lawyer drew
up the last testament If Leo Kill,
and the inference is that he had been
asked to do the same for Pope Plus.
Patriarca was summoned after Pro-
fessor Marchiafava, the popes physi-
sian, had had a long conference with
Cardinal Merry del Val, the papal sec
retary of state.
Sisters at Bedside.
Earlier in the morning the pope's
sisters entered the Vatican and were
received by Mgr. Parolin, the popes
nephew, who held them waiting in an
lantechamber until the doctors had
ended their visit. They then entered
the pope's chamber Later they ad-
journed to an adjoining chapel, where
they heard two masses.
Private and reliable information as
to the pope's condition is that he Is
much weaker. If the illness contin-
,ues in it's present course he will be
weaker each day. Even IL the bron-
chial affection does not develop into
actual pneumonia 1t is doubtful how
long the constitution of the patient
can hold out.
When Professor Marchiafava en-
tered the sick room in the morning
he found the fever had entirely dis
appeared. The expectoration, which
had been abundant during the night
was considered by the professor to be
somewhat better, both in color and
substance. The injections admins
tered by DR.. Amici In the course of
the night had produced the desired
effect Of keeping up the strength of
the patients heart, although the gen.
eral weakness had increased.

, 2ndnntinns in eynress rates

Reductions in express rates which
will cost the companies fully $4,000
900 a year-approximately 16 per cent
of their gross revenue-were ordered
by the interstate commerce commits
sion Yesterday to become effective on
or before October Is. 1913. Notable
reforms in practices also were ordered.
The most important change prescribed
by the order is by way Of modification
of the present graduated scale of par
eel rates. One hundred pound rates
for short distances either have been
left unchanged or slightly reduced;
for longer distances they have been
lowered; for fifty pounds or less all
rates have been practically reduced.
For packages of more than four pounds
going more than 200 miles and less
than 1000. the new express rates are
generally lower than the parcel post
rates: for more than 5000 miles the
rates are practically the same. The re-
port and order of the commission pre-
pared for Commissioner John Fl. Mar
BILE. are a virtual affirmation Of the
findings OF former Commissioner
Franklin X. Lane, now secretary of
the treasury.

SYNOPSIS OF THE MIDLANpERs.


Aurehe was stolen from the Holy
Family Orphanage in New Orleans,
when a tiny child, by Uncle Michigan.
and taken to the swamps to Master
Captain to be brought up to lead the
people back to their own-for he was
a Confederate who had not surren-
dered. But he died, so Aurelie and
Uncle Mich started out to see the
world, eventually sailing up the Mis-
sissippi, and landing at Rome, Iowa, q
small town with large ideas Of class.
caste, and family precedent.
Here Aurelie grows up, an elf1sh,
gypsy-like child, scorned and misun-
derstood by the townspeople; she and
Uncle Mich living in the Pocket Quar-
ry with the Lindstroms. John the
father was fanatic, and after losing
his suit, filed for the loss Of his arm In
a stonecrusher, he became rabid
against the laws and the town.
Aurelie's only friends were Harlan
Van Hart, son OF the Judge, and her
lover, and Wiley Curran, editor OF the
News, the weekly paper, a romantic
dreamer who shocks everyone with his
radical ideas.
Wiley Curran sends her pictures to
the beauty contest in Chicago paper,
and to everybody's surprise, she wins
Ii. Such publicity and vulgarity
shocks the people of Rome. Harlan is
incensed, and their love affair Is brok-
en- off. Receiving offers from theatri-
cal managers Aurelie goes upon the
stage, horrifying the town the more.

TRAINED TO MURDER
Assassins Once Formed A very
Influential Sect.

Assassins Once Formed A Very
Influential Sect.
The assassination of King George OF
Greece recalls the fact that the word
itself is derived from a regular or
der of men pledged to take the life, es-
pecially the life Of a ruler.
The assassin sect was an offshoot
OF the Shah form Of Mohammedan-
ism, but its tenets comprised frag-
1nents of magianism (of sorcery), Ju-
daism and Christianity, as well as OF
the teachings of the Koran. 1t was
in some respects not unlike the Druses
of Mount Lebanon, with whose out
breaks the name Of Lord Dufferin was
honorably connected long before ne
became govorner general Of Canada.
It's founder, who gave 1t his name
was Hassan Ben Sabah, chief Of the
famous mountain fortress Of Alamoot
in Persia, about 1890. He gathered
about him a body Of fearless young
men, pledged to obey him and highly
trained in various methods Of muir
der. These were dispatched, generally
singly, to end wars by killing kings
or generals, or to destroy rivals OF
personal enemies.
In order to give them courage for
their villainous work, they were taught
to make use of haschish, the drug
called chang in India, derived from
the leaves Of the common hemp plant
which is terribly intoxicating. In Ara
bic they were called haschischin from
this fact.
These men followed their instruc-
tions in every country, as Is shown by
the fact that all the European nations
have the word in their languages, as
sassinen in German, assassin In
French, aesino in Spanish, assassino
in Portuguese and Italian, etc. But
they flourished especially in the east,
where they also use the terror Of their
name for blachmailing purposes.
The Knight Templars in the time OF
Richard Occur de Lion, fought them
openly, the leaders of the crusades
having suffered seriously from their
designs, and also spreading the knowl-
edge of them and Of their leaders,
known to them as the "Old Man of the
Mountains" throughout christendom.
The Mongols massacred the Persian
branch of the order in 1856, and the
Sultan Beliars tried to extirpate the
Syrian branch in 1870. Neither attack
was thoroughly successful, however
and the order Is believed to exist to
this day in Persia, and to be not with
out influence in some eastern affairs.
Not even Persia had more horrible
assassinations than had France at the
time of the revolution, and there was
awful rightfulness in the words In
which the tyrant Robespierre ad-
dressed the national convention. when
he was refused permission to make q
defense against the fate to which ne
had consigned so many, and which
now threatened him: president Of AS
sassins," said the deposed ruffian, fol
the last time I ask liberty to speak,
for by assassins nowadays we mean
not members Of the sect Of that name
but a murderer who spills life blood
for any other than a purely personal
reason.

cultural products, and for the first

cultural products, and for the first
time in America, on two large black
boards saw the offerings Of the farm
ers to purchasers listed there with the
prices quoted. saw on the board
where one man wanted 100 bushels Of
good corn; he had evidently got
tired of the rotten western stuff. /
saw hairy vetch seed offered for sale
at 10 cents per pound; the day be-
fore I had a half dozen inquiries as
to where hairy vetch seed could be
bought; I saw fine alfalfa seed quot
ed for sale at 16s cents per pound; 1
saw / 900 bushels Of appler oats offered
for sale at 60 cents per pound and the
samples showed that they were OF as
fine quality as were ever offered In
any market. Then my eye glanced
down the board and I saw fine bred
pigs offered for sale. Glancing across
the board I almost shouted Joy when
I saw that one man had actually Of
fered ten tons Of Bermuda grass hay
at $1.25 per hundred pounds. This
Is the first time I have ever heard
of an actual quoted price for one of
the finest natural hays that the coun-
try produces, the hay made from the
grass that our people are eternally
fighting all the way from the noun
tains to the sea, the grass that II
handled for hay, would yield a better
return per acre than cotton. And actu-
ally on the board appeared the mod
est offer of 800 cans Of peaches at IL
cents per can, the owner actually
undertaking to compete at this very
remarkable low price with the can
ming houses Of the east and west.
"I was so struck with this listing
of products for sale, most Of them ap-
pearing in the handwriting Of the pro-
ducer, that I made photographs Of
the black boards just as they stood at
the time. OF course don't know how
many sales were effected, but there
was an interest on the part of both
the producer and the town consumer
that bespoke the possibilities OF the
scheme for the immediate future"
