The Great MarahaI Ney.

A recent English book about Mar shal Ney, 'Napoleon's heroic lieutenant, "the bravest of the braye." brings out some interesting facts. This Frenchman was really n German. He was born ut Saarlouis. now In Prussia and then and always German. He spoke only German as child. He was red haired. with wide face and round blue eyes. Five feet eight inchos in height, he had short body and long legs. Ills comrades called him "lo rou- geot," which was equivalent to "car- rots" or "briektop." He wns forty-six years old at Waterloo. So was Na- poleon. So was Wellington. Marshal Ney was a man who was trained to tho hardships of a worlman's life. His father was cooper, and in, his boy hood work in his fathers business he was accustomed to toll and exposure This enabled him to sleep placidly in the snow on the return from Moscow, wrapped in his cloaA, with tho starved, ragged soldiers of the grand army keeping guard and the Cossacks proving around in the darkness"

A cardhonrd Planet.

One remarkable achievement of Sir William Herschel was in connection with the planet Saturn. He had ar- ranged to erect his telescope at Wind sor castle to enable Queen Charlotte and the ladies of the court to see the wonders of the ringed planet, but on the evening arranged for the observa- ton great banks of clouds covered the sky. However, he explained that that would not matter, and after the instru- ment had been carefully directed tho queen and her attendants looked through 1t and saw the great planet and its marvellous rings quite distinct ly. Herschel, 1t seems. had expected bad weather and during the day had made a cardboard model of the satur- nian system and erected it in the grounds, lamp at the back providing the necessary iiluminstion.-Westmin- ster Gazette

POPE STILL ILL, BUT
 END IS NOT FEARED
POntiff'S Fever Decreases and
 Hope Is Expressed.

The pope Is still critically III. but there is no indication that the end is imminent 4The pontiff's eldest sister went to the Vatican and was at her brothers bedside an hour later when Professor Marchiafava and Dr. Amici visited him
 After making careful examination and holding conference with Cardi- nal Merry del Val. the papal secretary of state, the physicians issued q bulle- tin saying the pontiff's fever fell to 100.1 degrees F.
 This was published In Il special edi- ton of the Osservatore Romano, the organ of the Vatican. and the Vatican officials again became optimists.
 Professor Marchiafava also gave a statement to the Tribuna, In which he declared again that the pope's condi- ton was not serious The fever, he stated, had abated, and although 1t was likely that his temperature would rise again his illness was following the natural course, and the popes re- covery was possible.
 Professor Marchiafava added that the pope was cheerful and his mind was perfectly clear. He said jokingly to his principal physician, "This is my third relapse" and smiled in a manner which showed that he was convinced of his recovery.

ovsr.hadowlns the RothsohlIds,

One hundred years ago the Roths- childs were the only great interna- tional bankers. They were able to finance the need of nations, but the money they loaned was chiefly the money representing their colossal fam fly fortune. Today there are dozen great international banking firms, each of which is larger than the Rothschilds were a century ago and whose aggre- gate loaning power reaches an amount which would then have been almost in- conceivable. There are now thou sand banks where then there was one. each representing the concentrated loaning power of thousands of people. They offcr vast credit because the funds of the people, loaned through them, reach vast sums.-s. W. Straus in National Magazine.
