Oh. the olden, golden glory
With the autumn pomps unfurled.
Mantling every hilltop hoary.
Flaming up and down the world!
Scarlet bOugh and crimson creeper,
Burning branch and kindling spire
Dawn on dawning growing deeper
With the transitory fire.
Morn on MOURN a radiant shaping
Morn on morn a radiant shaping
Eve on eve a rapt ~redraping
OF the tapestries of time,
Not for one this sweeping wonder,
Bloom Of beauty-not for one,
But for all men dwelling under

Whenc all earthly spiendors be.
Comes a voice to every mortal:

says:
"Although the Pope is greatly

which he is convinced was entirely
unnecessary. and could easily have
been averted, he still declines to
make a public statement. | am

Pope's sorrow at the destruction of
the magnificent cathedral is 80 great
that it is impossible for him to ex-
press it.
The Pope is convinced hat his
sorrow is shared not only by Catholics.
but by all Christians. since all be-
levers in God mourn the destruction
of His temples. which even war does
not justify.
"A m of the Pope's en-
tourage explained he reasons why 4
public statement was not issued. He
said: The PopcS sorrow is under
stood. if not publicly 1t
is incOnceivable hat even if the de-
struction Of the cathedral was neces-
sary for Strategical reasons the in
tensity of the Pope'S sorrow would
be lessened. but a public statement
implies blame. which the Pope thinks
is inOpportune and inepedicnt. hence

Automobile Accident,

An automobile accident that for
tunately was not attended by any
more serious consequences than the
damaging of the machines involved
occurred at about o'clock Monday
night, when E. Fl. Barton's powerful
Lozier car and George Landry's Ford
machine collided in front of the
Elks' Club. The Landry car, driven
by Mrs. Landry and containing the
latter's little daughter, Agnes; Mrs.
Isandry's venerable mother-in-laW,
Mrs. Ozeme Landry, and Miss Martha
Maurin, was proceeding up Railroad
avenue, at a slow rate Of speed,
when the big Barton machine, with
the owner at the wheel, turned into
Railroad avenue from Mississippi
street. Mrs. Landry steered her ma
chine to the left, and as Mr.. Bar
ton, facing in the opposite direction,
had turned out to the right, the
two machines came together near the
curling on the left side Of the street.
Fortunately the impact was not head
on and neither car was moving rap
idly, else disastrous consequences
might have ensued. The right front
wheel of the Landry machine was
demolished, the tenders badly bent
and the car otherwise damaged to a
total extent of perhaps $50. The
heavy Barton car escaped with the
loss of a front lamp. By good for
tune none of the occupants of either
machine was injured.
