Pa~risians, Has at Last Been
Cleared Up.

The mysterious bust discovered in

momentary glance from the hurried

oddly placed monument and is ahla
to give the details which follow. This
bust is of the late William Smith

TRUCE PLAN FAILS.

The Observatore Romano, the
Vatican organ, referring last Satur-
day to the efforts of Pope Benedict to
bring about a truce during the
Christmas season among the warning
powers, says:
"The august Pontiff, in homage,
faith and devotion to Christ the Re-
demer, who is the Prince of Peace,
and also by reason of sentiments of
humanity and pity, especially toward
the families of the combatants, ad-
dressed confidentially the belligerent
governments to ascertain how they
would receive the proposal of a
truce during such solemn festivity
as Christmas. All the powers de-
clared. that they highly appreciated
the loftiness of the Pontifical initia-
tive. majority gave their sympa-
thetic adherence to the proposal, but
some did not feel able to agree to it.
Thus lacking he necessary unanimity,
the Pontiff has been unable to reach
the benevolent result which the
paternal heart of His Holiness prom
ised himself"
Ihe vatican authorities made pub
lie a document setting forth the
efforts made by the Pope to obtain a
truce in the European war during
the Christmas season. The efforts
of the Pontiff unfortunately. failed,
according to the Vatican announce
ment, owing to the opposition of a
certain power" 1t is stated by per-
sons in close touch with the Vatican
that the Turkish and Russian Gov
ernments declined to agree to a
Christmas truce. The first announce
ment of an effort on the part of the
Pope for truce in Europe over the
Christmas holidays came through
the German press bureau, which
said that Germany was agreeable to
this proposal, provided all the other
powers concerned accepted it.
