Handsome Electric Car to be Pre-
sented to Pope Plus x.

oSuIGO 70 rope rus ~
Learning that Pope Plus x. must
depend on wheeled chairs and the
cumbrous state carriage on his excur-
sions through the Vatican grounds,
Chicago Catholics have purchased a
Chicago electric for presentation to
the Roman Pontiff. Some time ago
a gasoline car was given the Pope
but was found unsuited to his needs,
so in turn it was given to Cardinal
Rampolla. The electric was chosen
because of its ease of operation, the
Pope being able to drive it himself
If he chooses. The name of the car
too will be a constant reminder of
the donors.
On the panels of the machine will
be embossed in red the Papal coat
of arms. The seats are richly and
deeply upholstered with imported
Bedford cloth. This is covered with
cream Gedford cord, bound in gold.
The Papal crest also is embroidered
in gold in the backs of the seats.
On the floor of the car in addition to
the regular rubber mat and gray car
pet, is heavy, luxurious, imported
rug of pure white fur. The windows
and doors are decorated with French
lace valance. The car will be
equipped with Firestone cushion
tires.
A delegation of Catholic Chicago
ans will go with the car to Rome next
month to make the presentation.

Mrs. Henrietta Nichols Smith, wild
ow of Charles Emory Smith, ex-post-
master general and ambassador to
Russia, and at the time of his death,
on Jan. 10, 1908, editor of The Phil
adelphia Press, has become a novl-

n.y. 4. I the vessel to take rea-
sonAG md it was for the jury
to saSe s s,there was failure
to perf6sCS ty. If there was
evidence ;,t 4 the jury could
come to the/ fusion that there
had been SUCH failure the verdict
could not be disturbed. To his mind
it was impossible to say that there
was no evidence upon which the jury
might not find that the speed of the
vessel was, in the circumstance, a neg
ligent speed. A practice of maintaining
the course and speed did not Justify
the vessel maintaining her course and
speed when the warnings of dangers
ahead were such as in this case. He
thought that the danger was neither
unforeseen or unforseeable. Having
regard to the warnings of the pres
ence of icebergs, the jury might rea-
sonably come to the conclusion that,
under the circumstances, a prudent
master ought to have slowed down or
stopped, and that master who failed
to take such precaution could not
say that the danger he afterwards met
with was unforeseen or unforeseeable.
There being, therefore, evidence to
justify the jury's finding of negligence
and the exemption clause being in
valid, it was unnecessary to consider
the other question Of whether the de-
PENDANTS took reasonable means to
bring the clause to the notice of the
ticket-holders. For these reasons he
thought the appeal should be dis
missed.
Lord Justice Buckley differed on the
question of law. He thought that the
defendants were not contravening the
Board of Trade regulations in putting
the exemption clause on the back of
the ticket. The statute did not pro-
vide that the contract should con-
tain only those conditions which the
Board Of Trade should prescribe. Hav-
ing regard to the finding of the jury,
therefore, that in O'Brien's case the
condition was sufficiently brought to
the attention of the ticket-holder,
judgment in that case ought to be for
the defendants. In the other three
cases the jury were justified on the
evidence in finding that the condition
was not brought to the notice of the
ticket-holders. On the question of
negligence his lordship criticised the
summing up of Mr.. Justice Bailhache,
and said that in his opinion the learn
ed Judge misdirected the jury as to
the effect Of expert evidence on the
question Of icebergs and their charao.
teristics.
Lord Justice Kennedy agreed with
Lord Justice Vaughan Williams on all
points.
The appeals in all four cases were
accordingly dismissed, with costs. A
stay of execution was granted on
terms in respect of portion of the
costs pending an appeal to the House
of Lords.

EXTRA TALESMEN FOR
RUPP MURDER TRIAL
Harrisburg Man Charged With
Murder of Farmer to Be
Tried at Carlisle

Carlisle, Pa, July 17.-Extra tales
men were drawn to-day preparatory
for the first murder trial which this
county has had on its hands in de-
cade. At the September session OF
criminal court Max Morganan, alias
Morganthal, alias Bent. alias Stone
charged with the murder of John
Rupp at his home near Mechanics
burg early in May, will make fight
for his life, and for this reason extra
jurymen have been secured.
Feeling over the shooting of Rupp,
which was at fever height for a time,
but which has died down, is expected
to revive as the time for the trial ap-
proaches 1t is expected that Nor
ganan's plea will be self-defense. How
ever, it is said, that relatives of the
dead man will be content with moth
ing short of a first degree murder
verdict.
District Attorney Jasper Alexander
will be assisted by w. A. Kramer, a
former district attorney and leading
criminal lawyer, while Morganan will
be represented by two of the younger
members of the bar. w. A. Zerby and

thrilling feats that man has ever at
tempted you will have a chance to see
1t to-day. Out at PaXtang Park King
Kelly will make an extra high balloon
ascension and try to use six different

Many so-called perilous feats per-
formed in shows are either trickery or
fakes, but when a man cuts himself
loose from balloon and trusts to his
parachute to open successfully, then
repeats the trick by cutting himself
loose from the first parachute, and so
on, until he has opened six 'chutes in
a drop of a mile or more, he is taking
some chances, and even the most skep-
tical spectator must acknowledge the
mans intrepidity. Parachute jumping
