POPEBENEDICTXV. IS HARD WORKER
RisasatBandlsFraiiiisntlyEn- pged Up to Midnight
TAKES HIS MEALS ALONE.
After Midday Rafeetion the Pontiff Walks In Vatican Gardsns if It Is Not Too Het—Of tan Gees to ths End, Whsrs H* WatchM Traffic and Peo¬ ple With Interest.
Rome.—Benedict XV. is one of the most energetic pontlffH who ever sat upon St. I'eter's throne. He gets through more work In tbe day tban most busy men Ih tbe outer world. He rises at 0 o'clock, summer and winter. As soon as be is dressed be says mass in his private chai>el, assisted by one of his chaplains. After that Is a frugal breakfast, consisting of an egg beaten up In a cup of milk—nothing else. Be¬ fore 8 he Is hard at work.
His flrst task is to read the daily papers. Though bis secretaries always prepare for bim what they consider the most Interesting pieces of news, be prefers to read it flrst hnnd. The
POPK BKNKDKrr XV.
Catholic papers are soon done with. He spends f.ir more time with the Italian Liberal and Democratic organs.
At 9 o'clock tbe mall is brought in Secretaries .segregate it rapidly, sub¬ mit tile more ImiMjrtant letters to the pope, and tbese occupy him till about 10 o'clock, when he receives the car¬ dinal secretary of state.
At lOi.'lO the private and public au dlences begin. Here Pope Benedict shows a marked difference from hl.s predecessor. Pope Plus X. used to like to talk with everybody who came; none went away without a special word from blm. But Benedict does not spend so much time on bis visitors. Those whom mere curiosity has brought arc soon dlsmLssed. It is only in the case of an important person that be lingers In conversation. But even then tbe au¬ diences last till midday, when the i)oi>e takes tbe principal meal of the day.
Pius X. alwaya dined with one of his chaplains. When the present pope was elected there was much specula¬ tion as to whether he would follow that custom. But tbe order came from his major domo before the flrst meal tbat Cardinal Delia Cblesa ate as pope to set his table for one person, and he always adheres to the rule of taking his meals alone. HLs midday meal- lunch or dinner, whichever you like to call It—consists of an Italian souj) witb plenty of macaroni and cheese, a course of meat, a couple of vegetables and fruit, with a glass of French wine- no more.
After this comes recreation. Until 2:30 or 3 he walks in his private apart¬ ments or, when the weather is not too hot, in tbe Vatican gardens. He goes on foot, unattended by guards or chamberlains, and walks briskly. He often goes to the end of the gardens, to the wall that looks on the Piazza del Resorgimento,' Rome's most mod¬ em neighborhood, and people down below in the palaces nearest tbe pon¬ tifical gardens can see the pope watch ing the trafflc with evident Interest.
At 3 p. m. he goes back to work. Reports, instructions to his nuncios and various correspondence are now attended to. This goes on until 6, when more audiences are beld. But these are of a private or Intimate na¬ ture and are never reported In the Os- servatore Romano, the Vatican organ.
It Is at this boor that Benedtot XV. receives his cardinals, the higher offi¬ cials at the papal court and, very often, Italians who have some politi¬ cal or diplomatic position in the secu¬ lar government and wbo cannot there¬ fore go to the Vatican officially. At these evening audiences the pope learns more of what goes on la public afTairs outside his domain than at any other time. It is tn many respects tbe most important part of bis day.
At 8 tbe audiences are closed. Tbe pope tben takes a supper of eggs beat¬ en up In milk and talks to chosen mem¬ bers of tbe household for balf an hour. And then to work again. Very often the three windows of tbe pontifical study sre lighted np as ss Iste aa mid¬ night.
No vUlage priest works harder than Benedict XT.
MARRYING SQUIRES BUSY.
•e Busy They Want te Put an End to 'Runners^ In Jeffsrsonvillo, Ind.
JetTersonvlIie. Ind.—Some of the six Justices of the peace of Jeffersonvllle, wbo flgbt among themselves for "mar¬ riage couples." are proposing a combi¬ nation whereby all six would establish central marrying parlors and would pool and divide equally all their earn¬ ings.
Tbe chief beneflt would be tbe elim¬ ination of the "nmners," with whom the Justices of the peace now fq>llt their fees, which only in exceptional cases amount to more than |3. One result of tbe comi)etltlon bas been the cutting of fees. Many eloping couples get married for $1 and some for "six bits." Secret weddings generally cost the elopers a little more, and a twenty- flve dollar fee shows up once in awhile.
TOMBSTONES AS GUIDES.
Somo Changes Are Mada aa a Result of Ore Boom'In Nevada.
Reno, Nev.—Tombstones are being used for location monuments in the new mining district near Sodaville. where a supposed fabulously rich ledge of tungsten ore was discovered, ac¬ cording to reports brought to Reno by men who answer the call of the desert and mark the lx)uudarles of their claim.
One miner located the village ceme¬ tery, and as there wero no rocks near he used some of tbe l>est looking tomb¬ stones to mark the boundaries of bis claim.
Others soon followed .suit, and now the relatives of the departed, interred three j'ears ago, wouid bave a hard time re<'ognlzing one grave from nn¬ other.
