before the Grand Jury the evidence

States liquor laws.
All of the clubmen were agreed
that the clubs of the city should con-
form to the law. Mr.. Maddox said
that where the dispensing of liquor
was wholly an incident to the running
of the club he conceived the spirit of
the law had been confOrmed with.
DIR. DuBose said the letter of the
law must be enforced. In reply it
was said that the letter of the law
would throw out of business the Sun

Theatrical Mechanical Association on
Thursday night in voting to discon
tinue the buffet feature of it's club.
George B. Greenwood, appointed
chairman of a committee to find new
quarters for the organization, said
the action was taken because of the
agitation against locker clubs, and
that with the change such large
quarters as are now occupied on Ma
rietta street would not be needed.
Two More Clubs Approved.
City officials, however, took the
optimistic view at the meeting of the
Police Committee Thursday afternoon
that the liberal policy of the Council
would not be interfered with, and
licenses for two more clubs, the Cen
trail and the Beavers, were acted upon
favorably.
These are old clubs, but their APP
plications for renewal of permits had
been held up because of the charge
that their managers had been con-
victed of violating the prohibition
law.
The Franklin Club, a new one. was
unanimously disapproved

In the illness that cut. all too short,
his remarkable career Pope Plus X.
was a marvel of patience and good
temper. The smile and the thank you
followed every service, even the small
est, done for him. and even when he
was In great pain no word Of protest
left his lips.
Among the well nigh countless stories
of his personality Is the following;
One day when he was bishop Of
Mantua one of his three unmarried
sisters. who kept house for him, as
they subsequently did when their
brother was patriarch Of Venice. went
10 him TO report that somebody had
stolen the meat she had left on the
stove for their dinner The bishop,
with a twinkle in his eye, suggested
that it might have been the cat.
'The cat. indeed" replied the sister
in ridicule. "The cat does not carry
off likewise the broth pot.r

bishop gently. If you wish to know.
IT was I who carried it off. A poor

title Pope Leo bestowed upon Bishop

TO the cardinalate. Cardinal Sarto's
sole article of value was an episcopal
ring, the gift Of friends. His revenues,

that as a son OF the people It would
be his best policy as pope to continue
In the democratic ways TO which he
had been accustomed for so long.
Refused TO "Ride In a Box"
on the very day he was elected.
when the sediari brought the sedan
chair 70 carry him to his apartments
from the conclave hall. he gently but
firmly protested that he would rather
walk than ride In a box. For days after
that the master Of the chamber had
the sedan chair waiting in the popes
anteohamber. but the determination Of
Plus x to decline to use Il never
changed, and finally the chair had to
be relegated to the attic.
The same happened with the por-
table throne which the popes have al
ways used when going TO and from "a

casions, when the ceremonies had to

While In Venice Cardinal Sarto re-
tained many OF the habits he had ac-
quired as a curate. He disliked pub
licity detested the praise and compn-
ment OF courtiers and was always
frank. though timid. Though a high
dignitary In the church. he was on
friendly terms with the king and the
government.
Two months before Cardinal Sarto
became pope King Victor Emmanuel
went 10 Venice TO open the interna-
tional art exhibition. The king gave
orders that the patriarch be given

ties but Sarto having arrived while
