The Spanish Fad
Latest i'm Paris
(By Filfrid Fleischer)

Paris.-This is the Spanish season
in Paris, everything Spanish is==in
vogue.
Theatres are giving Spanish plays,
vaudeville dancers are performing to
the sound Of castanettes, orchestras
are playing Spanish melodies, crowds
are swsying in dance halls to Spanish
tunes, art exhibits are favoring Span
ish artists, people are reading Span
ish novels, and women are affecting
Spanish wear.
There seems to be no other reason
for the Spanish vogue than that life
in Paris goes by fads, and this is the
latest and most startling fad Paris has
produced since the war.
The Spanish craze has taken the
theatres by storm. From the Opera
House to the cheapest vaudeville, Spain
holds sway. A new one act operette
entitled, Spanish Time, has been CIV
en- at the Opera House where it has
been acclaimed as one of the most sue
'cessful modern productions of recent
years. The famous novel of Blasco
Ibanez "In the Shadow of the Cathed-
eral" has been dramatized and is being
played to a crowded house at the Opera
Comic. Spanish numbers figure in al
most every variety show and three re-
view houses; the Follies Bergeres, the
Alhambra and the Olympia are now
featuring Spanish numbers.
Raquel Meller, the famous Spanish
beauty who sang at the Coliseum in
London last season, is the dominating
figure of the program at the Olympia,
where crowds flock every night to hear
her sing her famous folk songs and
watch her graceful fifteen minute act.
The public is &rwouYing the novels
Of Blasco Ibanlz, which are prominent
ly displayed in the windows of all the
book stores along the boulevards, while
Paris society is filing through the art
galleries before thu canvasses of the
we'll known Spanish artist Bertrand
Masses, an exhibition of whose works
was recently held in the rooms of the
fashionable Interallied club.
But the Spanish craze is not alone
revolutionizing the activities of Paris
ians; it is about to decry what "Pa-
risiennes" shall wear, and according to
an advance hint given the United
Press by a well known. dressmaker of
the rue Royale, bright yellow is to be
the popular color for spring gowns,
with bright red for evening wear, with
black Spanish lace overdress.

procession Cardinal Gasquet alone was
dressed in full black. Cardinals Fru-
hirt and Boggiani stood out in the dis
tinction Of their white robes, while the
remainder Of the cardinals, more than
two score in number, due to the ar
rival of number of the Italian car
dinals, wore the red of their rank.
All moved with bowed heads, reciting
their prayers and proceeding at a slow
pace, their faces grave with the s-lemo
nifty Of the occasion.
Diplomatic Corps in Procession.
Guards thanked the members of the
sacred college. Then came the mem
bers of the diplomatic corps in black
mourning attire. The bishops and
monsignors, numbering some two humid
red, fell in behind, closing the long
and solemn file.
Passing from the throne room to the
hall of Clementine, the cortege en-
tered the Loggia and proceeded down
the Scala Regia to the first floor, then
along the Loggia of Raphael to the
Pope's srobing room for religious cere-
monies, passing through the very cor
ridor where it is thought His Holiness
caught the cold which resulted in his
death. The procession then passed
through to the stairs of Constantine
and thence along the entrance to St.
Peters and into the massive edifce
where the body will lie in state I'M
til tomorrow in the chapel of the
Holy Sacrament.
Long before it was announced that
the body of the ex-pontiff could be
viewed by the public, large crowds had
gathered in front of St. Peters await
ing an opportunity to take last look
at the Holy Father. Overcast skies,
light rain and chilling atmosphere
apparently had not dampened the ardor
of the visitors, who came on foot, in
carriages, street cars, and automobiles.
Several thousand troops made up of
carbineers and royal guards, lined
the entrance to the great Christian
shrine to facilitate the movement Of
the crowd and preserve order.
Groups of Monks View Body.
Among the concourse which pressed
forward at the right entrance to the
church. leading directly past the chapel
of the Holy Sacrament in which the
Pope's body rests, were groups of
monks, priests and sister of charity in
combre raiment, some of them weeping
and some reverently praying.
The ex-pontiff's body, clad in Grim
son robes, rests on a catafalque only
about yard from the immense iron
gates at the entrance of Chapel No
BILE. At the main entrance of the
vatican which adjoins St. Peters also
were gathered clusters Of people eager
to catch glimpse of the chamber in
which His Holiness died. Mingled
among the crowds we're enterprising
street vendors offering for sale post
cards and medals bearing the image
of Benedict. a

mind.
That was Pope Benedict XIV (Giaco-
mo Della Chiesa), who served as pope
since September 8, 1914, when he was
chosen the 260th pope, to succeed Pope
Plus K.
In the difficult years that he directed
the policy of the Roman Catholic
church, Benedict XIV made relations
between the Vatican and the Italian
government easier, and took an inter
ested part in world affairs.
The revival Of the Vatican as a great
power in diplomacy is the personal
achievement of Benedict XIV.
Work During World War.
During the World War he appealed
to all the belligerents in behalf of
peace. He voiced his proposals for
ending the conflict on four separate oc-
casions. On the last occasion his docu-
ment called forth the noteworthy reply
from President Wilson as spokesman
for the allies.
He was strongly in favor of the
League of Nations plan and as strongly
against communism and bolshevism.

When America entered the World
War, Pope Benedict XIV expressed a
belief that the country's participation
would likely facilitate the approach of
world peace.
After the war he declared in favor of

In 1876 he, entered the Capranican

His studies were completed in the

ordained to the priesthood in 1878 at
the age of 25i .s4
Shortly after he went to Madrid with
Archbishop Rampolla and on his return
was made permanent under-secretary
of the secretariate 'of state.
He rose rapidly from that time on,
in the ranks of the church, being made
archbishop of Bologna in 1907. After
seven years he was elevated to the Col

crowned pope on September 8, 1914, five

A pint of moQshine- least the
police sponge squad declared that it
was moonshine-sp spilled all over the
floor at the Cummings hotel on West
Prairie avenue on Saturday afternoon,
resulted in warrants being issued in
the municipal court this morning for
the arrest of William Kondratowica,
declared to be the proprietor of the
hotel and he is expected to be in court
during the day. One of the warrants
charge him with having moonshine IL
quor in his possession and~~a second
charges him with an attempt to destroy
evidence of violation of the prohibition
law. At the police office this morning
it was declared that this makes four
complaints to be made against Kondra-
towica and the complaints are all pend
ing in court at the present time.
The sponge squad has had a lot of
complaints of moonshine being sold in
the neighborhood of the Cummings no
tel and they made raid at the place
Saturday afternoon just after o'clock.
Crash Destroys Evidence.
The members of the squad assert
that when they entered the place and
started Q search, there was a crash of
breaking glass and pungent odor of
moon. They assert that the man in
charge of the place who was standing
in front Of the bar, carried his supply
of moon in pint bottle in his pocket
and that with the coming of the squad
he dropped the bottle out of his pocket
to the floor, destroying both the bottle
and the evidence.
"They are all carrying it on the hip
or in their side pockets now" declared
Chief of Detectives Rock. Its easy
to get rid Of it when it is there and
when the boys go in to make a raid
these fellows manage to get the bottle
out and drop it. There are two old
cases pending against this fellow now
and here are two more. The place
should be closed up at least until the
court cases are disposed Of"
Logan Says, Doing Our Best"
1t is again admitted that there has
been some slight friction between the
operatives of the police and the district
attorneys office, but Chief Logan said
this morning. "The sponge squad is
doing the best it can. We can not help
it if they get away with moonshine in
some cases. know that raids of the
police have failed in some cases be-
cause they have been tipped off. but
they have not been tipped off by any
of the members of our department.

complaints to US imme diately go to the
saloonmen and tell them that the po-
lice are coming. We follow up every
case reported, but if the men who re-

and telling the saloon men that we are
coming, l don't see how we can help it..
It's possible that these fellows COM
