ROME BUILDING
CHURCH TO HOUSE
SACRED STAIR

Rome, July 11.-(A. PD-The
dream OF tnree-quarters Of cen
tury to erect church worthy of
the ecclesiastic dignity and sol
emnity of the world famous SACRED
Stair is at last about to be real
lied. Thanks to the small offerings
Of thousands of Holy Year pill
grims, who go up the 2S steps on
their knees, saying a special
prayer on each, most OF the ne
cessary funds for the ediiice have
been raised. These offerings have
been supplemented, of course. by a
number of large donations.
The architectural plans have
been drawn up and the conversion
was laid recently by Cardinal
POmpii.
The Sacred Stair, for centuries
situated in Il small unobtruaiVe
building just across the square
from the great basilica OF st. John
Lateran, is according to church
legend, the same one on which
Jesus trod when he came before
PLATE. Some centuries ago one Of
the Christian Roman Expresses
went to Palestine, purchased the
staircase and had it brought to
Rome as a perpetual sacred relic.
A special indulgence of nine years
is granted to devout worahippers
who ascend the steps on tleir
knees
Nearly Is years ago Pope Plus
TX began to interest himself in
erecting a larger church to house
the sacred staircase, and the
project has been furthered by each
succeeding pontiff, including Leo
XIII, Plus X, Benedict XIV ana,
finally, Plus XI. The church is to
be on the style of 4 bas.lica, 81
meters long and 20 wide. 1t will
have three naves set Off by marble
columns, and much of the ancient
decorations, such as rare fres>oe3.
