WEIRD EFFECT OF MISERERE
Througs Passed BY Bier In Course
Of Day-Monumen VIII Be
Erected In capitalization
Of New Pope.

Rome-The entombment of the late
Pope Plus X took place Saturday even
ing at sunset. The great Basilica of
st. Peters was in semi-darkness;
Pickering light came from the perpet-
ually burning tapers about the shrine
Of the Apostles and the candles in the
chapel where the catafalque stood.
Those who witnessed the ceremony,
numbering about 1000, came by spe-
cial invitation and included the diplo-
matte representatives accredited to the
Holy See. the prelates and members of
the Roman aristocracy.
The procession formed in the Chapel
Of the Blessed Sacrament, where for
hours the body of Plus X lay in state.
The catafalque was surmounted by the
triple crown and the body of the
Pope was clad in the pontifical robes
and surrounded by the emblems of his
sacred Office. During the course of the
day man thousands of persons passed
by the bier.
Saturday evening the bier was re-
moved and placed on low platform on
wheels. At the gates of the chapel the
archpriests Of the basilica, in violet
robes and surrounded by the chapter,
Joined the procession. First came
jeweled cross held aloft, then the car
dinals and high prelates. each carry
ing candle. In the centre of the pro-
he
ing amid the kneeling crowd, while
through the vast and silent church
was heard the "Miserere," sung by the
Sistino Choir.
The solemn cortege marched into the
crypt where the body Of Plus X will
have its final resting place. Here the
roof is very low, and the "Miserere"
had peculiarly weird and melancholy
effect. The tomb of the late Pointiff
is on the right at the entrance to the
subterranean chapel close to that of
several other popes. At this point sew
eral ancient marble tablets were moved
to make room for the tomb of Plus Y
which, while partly within the wall,
also projects into the passage.
The body Of the Pontiff lies in a
cypress wood coffin, on which rests a
gold cross. This is incased in zinc
and finally in an oak casket. On the
casket is the inscription:
Here Lies the Body Of Plus X.
Born June 2, 1885: died Aug
ust 20, 1914
The coffin was placed within the
tomb while Cardinal Della Volpe re-
cited prayers for the dead, accompanied
by all present kneeling.
A monumnt to Plus X will be erected
In the crypt.

TOO FREE WITH HIS COMMENT
Little Incident May Explain Why
Automobiles So often Fail to
Proffer Lift"

II noticed in a paper the other
day." said the man at the wheel,
that somebody calls automobilists to
account for not being more willing
to offer pedestrians a lift. ] gave
a pedestrian-an entire stranger-a
lift the other day and he certainly
did make the most of it. The first
thing he said was: Why don't you
use tire that lasts? They tell me
there's nothing like Poppleton's
Gumelastic. And, say, l see you are
using a Plinker cyclometer. Friend
of mine says he wouldn't take it for a
gift. He has Hickenlooper.'
Blamed If the fellow didn't go on
in that strain all the way down town.
And what do you think? When he
got out he said: Why don't you get
a good car?'-Cleveland Leader.

FILIPINO BILL
ADVANCED STEP
independence Measure Favor
ably Reported in House.
EARLY RECONSIDERATION URGED
New Feature Designed To Give Philip.
pine Legislature Right To En-
act Tariff Laws To Meet
Commercial Paralysis.

Washington, D. C.-Another step to.
ward giving the Philippines independ'
ence was taken in Congress, when the
House Committee on Insular Affairs
favorably reported the Jones bill.
which would declare definitely for the
first time the purposes of the Ameri'
can people as to the future political
status of the islands.
Representative Jones, Of Virginia,
chairman of the committee, announced
his purpose to press the measure for
consideration at this session.
A new feature of the bill is designed
to meet the commercial paralysis OF
the archipelago resulting from the Eu.
ropean war situation. At present all
tariff and internal revenue tax laws
for the Philippines are enacted by Con.
gress. The proposed law would ex
pressly confer on the Philippine Legis.
lature the right to enact all tariff laws,
except those which affect the trade re-
lations between the United States and
the Philippines.
1.-THE Philippine people," Represen-
tative Jones said, must have means
of supplementing their revenue just as
we have in this country. At present
their hands are tied and they can only
look to the United States.
"As Congress is to be kept in Wash
ington on account of the unsettled con-
ditions in Europe, there is no reason
why the Philippine bill should not be
considered now.
1.-THE bill declares the purpose of
the people of the United States to
grant the Philippines complete inde-
pendence as soon as they establish a
stable government in the islands. To
better fit them to govern themselves
the bill gives them larger measure
of participation in the governmental
affairs of the islands. 1t abolishes the
Philippine Commission as such, which
is now appointive by the President.
and substitutes for it an elective SEN
ate.
