' POPE LEO XIII IS DEAD.
The pope died shortly after 4 o'clock
Monday afternoon. His last moments
were comparatively peaceful and painless
aad were preceded by a period of iaaea
sibility. Aroand the bedside at the Inal
moment were the cardinals, the relatives
and the members of 'the papal court.
Before lapsing into ancoascioasnoss the
dying poatiff feebly aaoved his lips, his
last articulate words being those ased in
bestowing a benediction.
Gradually the shadow of death spread
over the poatiff, his extremities beooming
cold, his features sasamed the ixed
rigidty of death aad Dr. Lapponi noted
his last fluttering heart beats, which
gradaally became slower and slower,
aatil they anally stopped.
The aews of the pope's death spread
rapidly throaghout Roaw and caused a
stoat profoaad sensation. The whole
city i in mourning.
During the alarming crisis about noon,
while the pope was lying on bis bed, per
fectly saotionlees, and around him knelt
the cardinals and other members of the
papal court, praying, without any pre
liminary restlessness, the pontiff opened
his eyes, which fell oh Cardinal Oreglia,
who was at his side, and said solemnly:
"To yoar eminence, who will so soon
seize the reins of supreme power, I con
ide the church in these diftoult times."
Then Mgr. Bisleti, the master of the
chamber, asked for the pope's benedic
tion for the court, which the pope grant
ed, adding: "Be this my laat greeting."

The triple alliance of 1888 and the
Italian occupation in which the German

was defeated.
December 23, 1887, 50,000 people

second day after Dr. Laponni was suffi

tion of the pope and the news of his
death did not come as a surprise.
SELECTIXa ANOTHER POPE IN THE SISTTKB
CHAPEL.
On the tenth or at the latest the
twelfth day after the death of the pope
conclave assembles for the election of
the new pontiff. It is held at the beau
tif ul Sistine chapel within the walls of
the Vatican. Built by Pope SextusV,
the famous church has been adorned by
the sreatest of Italian painters. On the
walls are the works of Signorelli, Botti
colli, and Perugino, but these are dim
med by the splendor of the frescoes of
Michael Angello, illustrating the crea
tion and the last judgment
On the day fixed for the meeting of
the conclave, the cardinals assemble to
hear special mass of the Holy Spirit
and to take the oaths of faithfulness and
secrecy. When this is accomplished,
two by two and followed by the long
retinue of attendants to the conclave,
while the inspiring strains of the Yeni
Creator Spiritaa are chanted.
HOPE FOR THE DOWNTRODDEN.
"I am going to America, for in that
direction lies hope. My great ambition
is to breathe at least once the free air
with which God has blessed the Ameri
can people."
In these words, uttered by an un
learned Busman Jew to John B. Weber,
late commissioner of immigration at
New York, and quoted by him in a pub
lic address at Atlantic City on Sunday,
there abides a lesson for every thinking
American.
For some Americans so little realize
the valae of their birthright that they
will say, after all, their country is not so
much better than other countries.
France, they will say, is a republic, and
England is virtually a democracy, and
Germany is very well governed indeed,
and in these aad aome other countries a
man can be as free as in the United
States, aad after all we Americans have
aot very mach to be proadof that other
nations also do not possess.
Yet' when those who feel themselves
oppressed in the lands of their birth look
oat over the world to find aome obuatry
where a man may stand apoa his feet as
a sum and be free, they do aot tare to
Germany, or to France, or to England,
or even to brave little HoUaad or Swit
zerland, but to the United States of
With all oar failures ia making oar
country the ideal of the fathers, it is
still ia the main what the mea of 1776
meant it to be the refuge of the op
imanil of all the world the light that
apoa them that walk ia darkness
lead which God hat Messed with
a free air that to breathe even once is
the ambitioa of the poor aad lowly the
hops of the dowatroddea everywhere.
Aad the A. marina w who thinks or
sanslm otherwise bat blackens his owa
face with the shame of him who scoffs at
his birthright aad forgets his

A special from Red Lodge, Mont, of
the 20th eays: Jim Gormoa, who killed
his brother about a year ago and ran off
with his brother's wife, and a man
named Walters, who' killed a widow
named Hoover at the Hot Springs two
years ago because she refassd to marry
him, were killed by a mob at Basin,
Wya, early Sanday. C. E. Pierce, a
deputy sheriff, waa killed during the at
tack on the jaiL A state of lawlessness
now prevails in northern Wyoming.
From President Moffett of the Montana
and Wyoming Telephone company, who
ia now making a tour of inspection of
his company's lines comes the news of
the lynching and of an appeal for help
from Sheriff Fenton of Big Horn county
who has arrested a number of prominent
cattle men near Thermopolis and has
appealed to the governor of Wyoming
for assistance of the militia in getting
his prisoners to the Basin. J. P. Wal
ters, one of the men lynched was for
merly a member of the Nebraska legis
lature, and was well known by some of
the older politicians of the state. In
1887 he was a member of the lower house,
being elected from Dixon ooanty, his
home being at Ponca. Later he weat to
Grand Island, and for a time ha lived in
Thomas county, before removing to the
Black Hills.
M. Laoqvi Lobbt, member of the
geographical society was in San Fran
cisco on the 15th, and according to a
press dispatch be has conceived the idea
of building a trans-Alaaka-Siberian rail
road and thereby affording an all rail
route from New York to Paris, shifting
the commercial axis from the Suez canal
to Bearing straits. In 1898 Lobet visit
ed Alaska oa a scientific mission, and it
was then he first thought of the great
scheme that has ainoe interested many
wealthy men of Europe and resulted in
the formation of a big company which he
says has ample funds to carry it out
He ia now making a tour of the world in
the interest of this great railroad scheme,
and it is this motive that has brought
him to San Francisoo. In his proposed
route over the American continent Can
ada is eliminated. The present plans
outline a road across the United States
to San Francisco, thence northward
through California, Oregon and Wash
ington, along the coast to Juneau, thence
to Fort Cudahy, and thence to the most
westerly point of Alaska extending into
Bebring sea. Here a tunnel will connect
the two mainlands and thence through
Siberia to St Petersburg, and then finally
through Europe to Berlin and Paris.
John Speeches of the Schuyler Free
Lance devotes nearly a page in telling
why he is a popalist and disposes of
Brother Edgar Howard as a democrat in
true populiatio style. He says:
MIf a man is wrong in his statements
he does the right thing to promptly
recall them and give the right Was
Edgar Howard, of the Columbus Tele
gram, wrong when he denounced Frank
T. Ransom and Ed. E. Howell as state
senators? No, he donoaneed a pair of
corporation tools who never had one
heart-beat ia sympathy with honest nor
popular legislation. Bat when the cir
cumstances were different and when
Howard wanted to be elected tooongress
in the Omaha district he came out in
public print over his owa signature and
urged the people of Doagias ooanty to
return Ransom to the senate that he
might again betray the trust the people
reposed in him. Howard seemed to be
willing to sell his birthright for a mess
of pottage."
Again he says:
"If there is one democratic editor in
the state who ahould not attempt to crit
icise a popalist it ia Edgar Howard, of
the Columbus Telegram, and he is oppos
ed to fusion and has no use for a populist
except to get his vote for democrats."
