hands of the sacred college as lta tempor
ary custodian during the Interregnum.
The perfect administrative machinery of
the church provided against the slightest
Interruption of the governing authority. As
the senior member of the sacred college
Cardinal Oreglla, to whom the pope today
solemnly confided the Interests of the
church, has now become the exponent of
the cardinals until Tope Leo's successor
is elected.
Oreglla Leo's Antithesis.
The cardinal Is th exact antithesis of
Pope Leo, having none of the late pontiff's
i-mrtfithAftlrt mnA HfiAvnlTit characteristics,
Ho ccmcs from a noble Pledmontese stock
and his nobility is shown In his haughty and
austere bearing. He is not popular among
his colleagues or the Romans, and his
brtraque manner has. earned him the title
of "the Piedmont bear." He" is tall and
robust and his 74 years are shown by the
whiteness of his hair. His face has the
tawny hue of old parchment and Is deeply
lined. Despite his austerity the. cardinal's
learning and piety are universally recog
nised. This Is the man who for the time
being ! practically pope. It ' was he who
issued the orders to clear the Vatican from
Intruders Immediately following Pops Leo's
death.
The death occurred at a time when all
was clniilarly calm about the Vatican, as
people had been so long expecting the final
summons that their sensibilities wero well
nigh numbed. Outside St. Peter'g the empty
trolley cars swung slowly around the loop
and across the square Into the cool' shade
of the great colonnade, which for over two
centuries has been the rlde of. Roman
architecture.. The, clunf tt the car-bells
rwas the only noise -which" dispelled the tra
ditional peacefulness of an Italian after
noon. Now and again pne of. those little
open carriages In 'whlohJ alt Rom rides
rattled aoross the baked" Vesuvlah stone
with which the square of St. Peter's Is
paved and .took Its' place in the' cab rank,
which lies In the shadow of Michael An,,
gelo'a 400 columns.
Bustle Replaces Idleness.
A few half-naked urchins dawdled In the.,
spray which a light breeie blew from the
fountain that plays unceasingly beside the
huge obelisk, brought to- Romefrom Egypt
by some conquering emperor. A few yards
away, beside the bronee doors which lead
to the-Vatlcan, some twenty or thirty men
and boy and a handful ot gendarmes
lastly awaited the news.. Inside the Swiss
guards lolled on a bench and complained of
the heaU Scarcely a soul passed up the
marble- staircase and the courtyard of San
Damaso was deserted except for the heavy
black carriages of the cardinals and their
coachmen, who were awaiting their mas
ters. It was the hour of .the siesta. Noth
ing could have been more peaceful. Oc
casionally one of th more energetic among
the watchers ventured Into the sun to take
another glance at -the pope's room, which,
kept closely shuttered; was In perfect har
mony with the quiet scene It overlooked.
At 4:20 a roan dashed madly across St.
Peter's square, then quit, empty. A sec
ond later another followed on a bicycle.
Within a few seconds, as If by . magic,
newspapermen, gendarmes and messengers,
running, driving and gesticulating, dashed
to and from the portals of the Vatican.
Like a wireless message the words, "He
la dead," , flashed round the Eternal city.
Bronao Door Close Tight.
Rubbing the afternoon sleep from their
eyes, bare-headed men and women, many
carrying babies, emerged from the dark
ened houses and cafes and besieged the
door of th Vatican. The transformation
was complete. The' quick movement and

fore there had been no sign of life. The
French ambassador's carriage drove fu-
rtously from the Vatican and drew up at a
nearby, telegraph office. Without waiting
for the horses to stop the ambassador
lumped out and notified his government
of th pope's death. There soon followed
th cardinals, who with set faces drove
slowly homeward.
Behind the shutters of Pop Leo's room,
which, still remain closed, all was over.

Last Day Fnll ol Pain.
Pope Leo's last day, on earth was full of
physical pain and was heightened. by fleet
ing moments of consciousness, which per
mitted him to fully recognise the slow ap
proach of his end. The complete coma of

room for the morning conference the

fully said their task would soon, be over.
The doctors recognised that the catastrophe
was near and so informed Cardinals Ram
polla and Oreglla and the other leading
figures of the sacred . ( college.
Towards noon the pontiff suffered a se
vere relapse, during which his heart almost
ceased to beat. The cardinals and Pope
Leo's relatives were hastily summoned and
word spread through the Vatican that
death had actually occurred, but denplte
the Imminence of danger, the pope again
rallied. Even while the cardinals atood
about the bedside expecting his death th
sufferer, opened his eyes and his lips moved
with words of benediction. He recognised
and spoke to Cardinal Oreglla, and - atlll
thinking of the church he loved so well,
confided Its Interests to the dean of the
sacred college. The cardinals, prelates and
the dying man's relatives kneeled beside
the bed and kissed his hands. For two
hours the pope lingered In a state of semi
consciousness. About 2 o'clock lt,1ecame

At 2:45 p. ml the doctors detected the
pproach of the final agony. Some slight
signs of consciousness remained, and the
dying . pontiff muttered soma Inaudible
words. Gradually, his power of speech and
sight were blunted and he could neither
see nor speak. Thus the chill of death
quietly spread over him until at 4 the strug

the news of the death' of the pope, Archbishop-
Ireland paid, the following tribute
to tho dead pontiff: - -
Ih Leo a truly ' great and . ' good man
passes from earth. The extraordinary, the
unparalleled Interest with which the world
during the last fornight kept vigil around
the Vatican, where the old hero battled
dramatically with -grim death. Is the mag- !

Intellectual firmament, has .fallen, mxlon i
a mighty void which soon MaJn may no't
be tilled.
Great and good Leo truly was" fashioned
so by nature and by grace divine. What
a mind! Loftiest it was In vision, reaching
out to vastest horizons, soaring upward
to nignesi regions or tnougnt and truth.
And how quickly in action that mind of
Leo was, that view piercing in glance.
How rich and varied the store of knowl
edge. Rapidly a he conversed he would
travel from literature to science and art,
from theology to diplomacy every where
the manifest master; everywhere the cul
tured scholar. .
- Ambitions to Live In History.
And then, he was ambitious to put to
irotlt his talents, ambitious to do great
hlngs. When he ascended the nontilUal
throne he resolved that so far as oppor
tunity came nis wouw De a nistoric pon
tificate, and to that end he wurked during
his life. He lived and wurked Durelv for
God and for men. He met kines and
peasants; men of highest social rank and
of lowest bowed bctore his graciousneaa.
i ner is no post, oi nonor and duty so
elevated, so sublime, as the Roman pontifi
cate, the treasury of centuries of inspira
tion, the world's thair of moral authority,
ruling directly 260,000,000, of every tribe and
ever nation, ruling indirectly ty the silent
prestige of Its name and power, by the vast
spiritual force of this life and teachings,
the entire humanity. Into that pontificate
Leo entered; In It he reigned, as only two
of his predecessors reigned, a quarter of a
century leaving posterity to record that In
him the Catholic church has had the most
wondrous of wondrous sovereigns and hu
manity one of Its ablest thinkers and high
est exemplars of fidelity to God-given duty.
Volumes will be written to narrate the
things done by Leo. In a hurried eulogy
there Is room only to note the general re
sults he has accomplished. Leo's services
were, of course, primarily to the church.
Leo made the church known to the modern
world, as It wished to be made known. In
one encyclical after another he discoursed
on the vital moral and dogmatic principles
which constitute Its doctrinal life, to the
end especially of making clear their social
and clvto value.
show Church a It la.
By dint of wise words and acts he tore to
shreds th thick veils of prejudice and mis
understanding which, as the consequence of
strifes and controversies of centuries, had
been living features. Liberty, civil and po
litical. Individual rights, education, the
progress of science and of discovery, the
material comfort of the masses all this
Leo In the name of the church blessed and
advocated.
Today th Catholic church Is universally
admitted to be In the van ef humanity's
forward march and for this Leo is to be
thanked.
. All humanity has been benefited by him.
He never hesitated to reach out beyond the
formal confines of the church to serve hu
manity, to serve nations and men, who were
not of the fold of the church.
One of the most meaningful of. the acts
of Leo was his announcement to the Cath
olics ot France that it was their moral
duty to adhere to the republic and the doc
trlnnj teaching regarding modern Ideas and
forms of government Involved In that an
nouncement. It waa, too. - a - masterful
stroke of diplomacy. Ali the Catholics of
France did not follow Ieo. Their political
traditions held the field; today they are
suffering from their short-sighted con
servatism and their disobedience toward
Leo.
No other man reigned at th dawn of the
twentieth century as Leo reigned. It was
th supreme triumph of moral pwer the
triumph of truth and of Justice, the tri
umph of a soul filled with truth and Justice.
With Leo there dies the admirer and lover
of America,
Said he to a bishop from America one
day: "Oh. America; It ' is th future."
lo's clear vision of things far away in
time as well as In space had endeared
America to htm. As no other statesman
In Europe, Leo understood America its

much honor to him nd so much honor to
our rominon human nature as the sincere
and outspoken interest taken In him by the

sciences of the masses of the people? Will
the divine founder of the church grant it
a new triumph In this twcntietn century
throuRh the political agencies of a chris
tianized democracy? 1 firmly believe that
the storv of the first half of the twentieth
century upon which we are entering will
answer these questions in the affirmative
and credit the triumph of Christian prin

What the great artists have done In the
world of art In creating their own schools
which have been indices for the future,
I-oo XIII has accomplished In the world
of faith and science. His labors have
created an entirely new atmosphere about
the papacy.
Greatest Man of Century.
TOLEDO, July 20. Bishop Horstmann
of the Cleveland diocese of the Catholic
church gave out the following state
ment. Pope Leo Is the greatest man of the
century and the greatest man who has
occupied the chnlr of St. Peter smce the
death of Benedict XIV. He was the
greatest friend humanity has had, having
been a student of socialistic and religious
subjects and having given the world the
results of his studies.
Oldest Prelate Praises Leo.
CINCINNATI, July 20. Archbishop Wil
liam Henry Elder, who became the oldest
living prelate upon tho death of the pope,
said:
' "It Is eighteen years since last a saw
the holy father, In 1S85, and during that
period so much has been accomplished by
him that ho has become the marvel of the
age. , , . .
"At the time I saw him last he impressed
me with his learning and Intellectuality,
for even then he was an old man.' I had
seen him before and knew him. Since that
time his activities have been so far reach
ing that they have challenged the admira
tion of th world. He has been a great
man and a holy man. His writings have
done great good for society In general In
the dissemination of advice and truth, and
thinkers, Irrespective of creed, have shown
their appreciation of his teachings.
"While the singular purity and modesty
of his life have won for-him great admira
tion, his most lasting monument will be
the work he has don for the amelioration
of mankind, th aid of the laboring classes
and the defense f right and Justice. For
the church bo nas be" great pontiffs Our
dealings with him in an official capacity
have always been fraught with much con
sideration, and It : is only becoming an
American to feel gratitude toward Leo XIII
for th interest he has maintained in the
church in America and in this country in
general." " -'' J ' ;

ONE WHO MAY SUCCEED LEO
Next Pope Is Believed to Be Included
In the List Here De
scribed.
At tho time of the death of Cardinal
Parocchl, which happened recently, there
was much speculation In regard to tho
probable successor of Pope Leo, as in the
list of candidates Cardinal Parocchl was
regarded as one of the most important.
Next to him was Cardinal Seraflno Vannu
telll. Madame Amy A. Bernardy, writing
in the Boston Transcript of the cardinals
favored for the papacy at the ' time of
Parocchl'a death, has the following to say:
"Ther ar two members of the Vannu
telll family In th Sacred college: Cardinal
Seraflno and his younger brother, Cardinal
Vtncenso, who acts as 'grand electeur" to
his more Illustrious but not by any means
more remarkable brother. In fact, Cardl
nal Vincenxo has the reputation of being
a better diplomatist even than his brother,
and perhaps the best diplomatist that the
Vatican can boast of at present. Tho Eml
nantlsslmo Seraflno Vannutelll has a great
regard for his brother; and almost 'every
evening he can be seen walking from his
own residence to the Palasso Rlccl, where
the Emlnentlsslmo Vlncento lives, to en
Joy his dally talk with htm. Vlncenso Van
nutelll is a roan of experience and of re
markable mental powers. His life hai
been on of strife and struggle all through,
H was military chaplain to the popa'i
troops during th Italian war of 1867-70,
and saw the fights and helped th wounded
and comforted the dying on the battle
fields. Later he tried to plan an accord
with the Oriental churches at Constanti
nople; he did good work for th church as
nuncio to Portugal and attended at Bt.
Petersburg the coronation of the car, and
at Brussels th uchaiistio congress. 11
la devoted to his brother, even as his
brother la to him, and leads in his nam a
strong party of supporters, almost entirely
recruited from th ranks of Cardinal Par
occhl' enemies. Seraflno Vannutelll, hay
ing been born at Genasxano, in th very
heart of the old pontifical domains, and
completed his studies in Rom In that same
Colleglo Capranlca that has given
so many wis and learned men
to -. th church, I vary favorably
known among th local clergy; In
fact, h Is th cardinal most popular
with th. Roman-born priests, who con
stitute a powerful and fretful organisation
within and without the Vatican walls.
8eraflno Vannutelll has also traveled ex
tensively, having been sent on official busi
ness from Mexico to Bavaria, from Ecua
dor and Peru to Brussels and Vienna, ac
quiring not little notoriety when. In 1879,
evidences being given by the Belgian cabi
net, of disrespect to the church and Its
representatives, Vannutelll, then plain mon
Big nor, gathered his belongings and departed
In dignified but Implacable wrath from the
Belgian capital. He is also said to have
once disagreed with the pope himself about
going as a bishop to Bologna, which post
Leo XIII had thought fit to bestow upon
him without consulting him first. It was
then that the Emlnentlsslmo Seraflno es
tablished for himself the reputation of a
man who has a head of his own, and Im
paired somewhat his chances of being
chosen as the successor of the pope, whose
good nature he had so severely tried.
Three or four years elapsed before the
pope could forget and forgive the non
submlssiveness of the cardinal, whose
learning, wit, character and generally bril
liant qualities succeeded, after all. In re
storing to him the alienated affections of the
holy father.
"Cardinal Vannutelll, It may finally be re
marked, Is one of those few cardinals who
would be willing that the church should
come to some sort of understanding, I
cannot exactly say friendly, but at least
officially, with the Italian government In
Rome; and, therefore,-his election to the
Holy See would meet with the approval of
the greater majority of Italians.
Cardinal Gottl.
"The Emlnentlsslmo Glrolamo Maria
Gottl Is another of the very few 'tolerant'
cardinals, and his name, together with
those of Vannutelll and Svampa, seems to
recur most frequently In forming the trio
from which It Is most probable that the
next pontiff will emerge. Long, long ago
the holy Abbot Malnchlas wrote a series
of prophetic mottoes supposed to contain
symbolically the names of the forthcoming
pontiffs of the Roman church. From the
book of the Abbot Malachlas It resulted
most clearly that the pope following Plus
IX would have been a 'lumen de coelo'
(light from heaven), Cardinal Peccl, who
had a bright star in his coat-of-arms, felt
encouraged, and became pope. Still, ac
cording to the wise abbot, following the
light from heaven a burning fire will ap
pear 'Ignis ardeus.' Well, Cardinal Gottl
has a flaming torch In his coat-of-arma.
-nut the third of the trio also boasts of
a flaming torch as heraldic device; he Is
Cardinal Svampa, archbishop of Bologna,
one of the youngest cardinals, one of the
most charitable and generally respected,
and one of the most tolerant, and, appar
ently, most unconscious of his own capaci
ties and opportunities, And he has, be
sides, a great advantage for himself he
lives outside the daily strife and struggle
of the Roman court and, since the 'new
ness' of the man seems to be a most Im
portant requisite of the future pope, SvamPa
really seems to have excellent chances.
"Both he and Gottl keep protesting that
they do not wish the pontificate, feeling,
as they do, far too humble and modest for
such an exalted position; Gottl being prin
cipally a man of learning nnd of meditative
and extremely simple h.tblts, Svampa de
lighting In a modest, charitable,. unostenta
tious existence.
. Cardinal Oreglla.
"These three men. Gottl, Vannutelll and
Svampa, are, so to say, stars of first mag
nitude in the Vatican horizon. Mlnor'llghts
are, however, not to be forgotten,, and
among the minor lights the Emlnentlsslmo
Lulgl Oreglla dl Santo Stefano shines the
brightest. I have already said that he Is
the one surviving cardinal created by Plus
IiX,'at wjpse .death- he Insisted that the
conclave should b held out of Italy, his
Idea' being strongly supported by Parouhl
and Ledochowskl. Oreglla dl Santo Stefano
comes from a noble old Pledmontese fam
ily; he Is rich, both in wealth and In wis
dom, and has held honorably various hon
orable posts. He is also a remarkable lin
guist, and, being dean of the Sacred college,
and having a brother who Is a Jesuit, he
can boast of wide Influence and of strong
supporters, especially because of the well
known hostility of the Jesuits against Car
dinal Rampolla. Moreover, he Is one of the
favored few that can turn for hop to the
wonderful pages of Abbot Malachlas; he
has for Ancestral device an altar enriched
with a burning flame. He la said tfi be In
mind and beliefs somewhat akin to Pope
Leo, with whom, however, he has. It Is well
known, more than once notoriously dis
agreed. He is of quiet and, retiring dis
position, modest in his way of living and
most generous In, charities, about which
ha thinks the less said the letter.
But he has an iron will, and, when
roused, sticks doggedly to his own opin
ion. As dean of the Sacred College, he
will also be 'camerlengo' of the church;
that Is, acting as pope from the time of
the pope's death to the election of the new
pope, and) he has already declared his In
tention of proving a 'thoroughly good
broom, that will sweep without mercy,' so
that In two weeks he may have set to order
several things which he does not approve
In th Vatican. Of course, his double
dignity of dean and 'camerlengo' gives him
a power almost unlimited, the extension
of which may fairly be grasped by remenv
berlng that Cardinal Pucct was 'camer
lengo' to the conclave from which he
emerged Leo XIII.
"The chief drawback to Cardinal Ca
pecelatlo's chances for tho papacy Is his
age. He was born In 1824, and may not
see much mora of life. He Is an honest,
upright, sincere man; In fact, his greatest
fault may be said to be his utter, excessive
frankness. He cannot be made to under
stand that there are things In the world
which had bettor rdtnaln untold.
Cardinal Snrto.
"Cardinal Sarto Is the patriarch of
Venice, and he Is said to enjoy his duty
Just as much as he dislikes the etiquette
of the Roman court, whither he only re
pairs when he cannot do otherwise; and
he certainly does enjoy his duty very
much, and certainly do the Venetians
enjoy very much his presence In th city
beloved of St. Mark. He may never be pope
but he enjoys the distinction of being on
of the most universally beloved and res
pected cardinals.
"The same cannot be stated, I regret to
say, of Cardinal Ferrari, the energetic and
stubborn Archbishop of Milan, whose
chances for the papacy are strongly af
fected by hie personal disposition. Yet,
sine It cannot ba denied that he does
dispose of a few votes. It were unfair or
Imprudent to omit him In this review.
"Finally, the name Cardinal Mariano
Rampolla del Tlndaro suggests Itself, In
solitary splendor not that the greater
chances of becoming pope ar his; but for
various reasons he stands out alone. The
hostility of the Jesuits Is a great and prob
ably Insuperable barrier to his success."

be obliged to Icav town In order
the sneezing, watery eyes and other an
noying symptoms of this disagreeable sum
mer disease.
Sherman St McConncl! wish us to an
nounce that when Hyomel Is used, either
as a preventive or cure, there will be no
hay fever. They advise th use of Hyomel
dally for two or three weeks before tlio
usual lime for the annual appearance of
hay fever. In this way th attack will be
pievented. If, however, the preventive,
treatment was not started soon enough"
and the disease comes on, use Hyomel six
or seven times dally and also rub Hyomel
Balm thoroughly ' Into the rostrlls both '
morning and night. This treatment will
relieve at once and give a speedy and per
manent cure.
Hyomol actually br'ngs Into your twn
home, a climate filled with o;0ne and hea'.- '
ing balsams, the same air ihat one breathes
at th White Mountains or ether health
resorts.
There Is no rtomach dosing when Hy
omel Is used. It Is Nature's own method ;
for curing all diieass of the respiratory
organs, and Is breathed through a neat
.pocket Inhaler that accompanies every
outfit, so that the medicated alf reaches
the minutest air cells, killing ell germs
ami soothing and healing the Irritated
mucous membrane.
It Is tho one treatment for hay fever
where Sherman A McConnell guarantee to
refund the tnone;' If It does not give sat
isfaction. All who are subject to hay
fever should begfn Its use at once so as to
prevent the disease.
