One American
Among Citizens
of the Vatican
Father John Hagen, S. J., Only One

He Is Naturalized.

citizen of American origin and he
a naturalized one stands out among
the 51S "subjects" of the new Vati
can City state.
lie is father John Hagen, S. J.,
director of the Vatican observatory.
Born an Austrian and naturalized
American while at Georgetown uni
versity, he has been fulfilling his
functions at the Vatican for about a
quarter of a century.
Out of the 518 citizens or sub
jects. 3S9 headed by the pope him
self are of Italian origin, albeit Pius
XI was actually born an Austrian
subject, his birthplace, Desio, near
Milan, being under Hapaburg domin
ation at the time he came into the
world. The Swiss, in view of their
century-old privilege of furnishing
the papal guard, came next with 113,
while the French have 11. This last
number includes their nation's "Car
dinal of Curia," His Eminence Alexis
Lepicier.
Germany has five Vatican citizens
headed by the venerable Jesuit, Car
dinal Ehrie, librarian of the Vati
can. Spain has two, one being Car
dinal Merry del Val. former secretary
of state and now arch-priest of the
St. Peter's Balilica. Austria and Hol
land, with one citizen each, are rep
resented by their two curia cardinals.
Their Eminences Fruewiith and Van
Rossum.
The only other two nations to be
represented by one borrowed citizen
each are Norway and Abyssinia. The
latter shatters all beliefs in prece
dents by being a Jew.
This singular citizen of the pope's
own state will not remain much
longer in the faith of his fathers,
however. Before the constitution of
the Vatican City was effected. Ilagos
Fessuh, native of Alitena in Abys
sinia, had already announced his in
tion of becoming a Roman Catholic;
and being attached in a special ca
pacity to the Ethiopian seminary,
which is on Vatican soil, wa3 di
rected to remain there pending com
pletion of his spiritual preparation
for baptism and the succeeding sac
raments. Once he has been admitted
to the church, the pope will reign
over 518 subjects, who are 100 per
cent Catholic.
The students of the Ethiopian
seminary itself are not counted
among the denizens of the Vatican,
since their residence is only transi
tory. For disciplinary and admin
istrative purposes, though, they will

J he Presbyterian Women's Mis
sionary society held a very fine meet
ing on Tuesday afternoon at the Fel
lowship room and a very pleasing
number of the ladies were present
to take part in the meeting and to
enjoy the fine program that had been
arranged for the afternoon.
m l . ..
i ue room nau oeen made very
oeautllul with a largo basket of red
roses, the bright hued berries and
leaves that added to the cheerfullness
and charm of the pleasant room. The
decorative features of the occasion
were in charge of Mrs. Frank A.
Cloidt and Mrs. II. F. Ooos, who also
acted as receiving hostesses.
Mrs. Stephen A. Wiles conducted
the devotional services of the after
noon and presided over the meeting
and program in her usual pleasant
manner.
Messages were read from the mis
sionaries supported by the church
of this state, these being given by
-Mrs. li. (j. McCIuskv.
A very delightful diversion of the
afternoon was the impersonation
given by Miss Nickum.
In the musical portion of the pro
gram, Mrs. James T. Begley, one of
the popular vocalists of the city was
heard in a delightful mimber, "Sil
ent oice by Roma, Mrs. Goos serv

jorie Arn also added to the charm
of this portion "of the program with
a delightful piano number that ap
pealed to all.
The main address of the afternoon
was given by Rev. H. V,. McClusky,
pastor of the church. Starting at
the home base, he took his listners
roni field to field of the missionary,
stressing some point of interest in
each one and showing some of the
marvelous work done with the con
tributions made at home, bringing
before the members many of the
heoric services that are rendered by
the missionaries. The blackboard
diagram used in the address made
the message morf vivid.
A thank offering was taken during
the afternoon and $50.75 was real
ized to be applied on the work of the
missions.
Very delightful refreshments were
served during the social hour, the
serving hostesses being Mrs. John

garage owner, was found dead in his
room at the Lincoln hotel about 7
o'clock Saturday evening. lie had
apparently died about two hours
earlier. Dr. Aaron S. Speier and Dr.
Mies J. Breuer. who examined the
body said death was due to a heart
attack.
The body was found by Adam
Scheidt. an empoye at the Morse
garage, who went to the room arter
he had been unable to get an ans
wer to his telephone calls. Scheidt
said he had first tried to call Mr.
Morse about 5:30 and had called
every few minutes from that time un
til he went to the room. The day
manager had left the garage, and
Scheidt said he had wanted to get
in touch with Mr. Morse on a mat
ter of business.
End Comes Unexpectedly
Death was entirely unexpected, ac
cording to friends. Clark Jeary, a
close personal friend and attorney
for Mr. Morse, said that although
Morse had not been feeling well for
several weeks, he had not complained
of any serious ailment. Jeary and
Morse returned a week ago Saturday
from a hunting trip. During the
trip, Jeary said that Morse had felt
quite well.
Scheidt found the body lying on
the bed. fully clothed but covered
Apparently Mr. Morse had gone to
bed on his return from the Nebras
ka-Kansas football game and had
drawn the bed covers over him.
J. E. Dudley, a taxi driver, was
probably the last person to see Morse
before his death.
Complained of Pains
"lie met me in front of the stad-
um about tne middle or tne uiiru
quarter." Dudley said. He said he
was not feeling well and asked me
to take him to the hotel. On the
way he groaned considerably and
told me he was suffering pains in
his chest and stomach. When we ar
rived at the hotel he said he was
feeling better. He didn't seem seri
ously ill when he got out of the
car."
From the condition of the body
when it was found, death came
hortly after Morse reached his room.
The body was taken to Castle,
Roper and Matthews', where It will
be held pending funeral arrange
ments. It is believed that he has a
nephew in the east.
Mr. Morse was very popular in
thi3 city and was heard at the Hap
py Hundred suppers a number of
times and his clever handling of
humorous subjects.
