Takes Name Benedicte XV
Sixty Years Old-An Italian.
Rome, Sept. 3. Cardinal Gi
acomo Delia Chiesa, archbishop
of Bologna, Italy, was to-day
elected supreme pontiff of the
Catholic hierarchy in success
ion to the late Pope Pius X.,
who died Augus 20. He will
reign under the name of Bene
dicte XV.
The conclave of the Sacred
elect the pope, went into ses--sion
the evening of August 31.
The announcement of the out
come of its deliberations was
made this morning shortly af
ter 11 o'clock.
At 11 :35 Cardinal Delia Volpe
appeared on the balcony with
Monsignor Ca,postosti bearing
the pope's cross on his right,
and pronounced the ritual, an
nouncing the election of Cardi
nal Delia Chiesa. To this he
added that no pope has chosen
the name of Benedicte XV.
Cardinal Giacomo Delia Chi
esa, who was to-day elected
pope by the Sacred college in
succession to Pius X, was cre
ated a cardinal May 25, 1914.
He is the archbishop of Bolog
na, Italy.
He was born at Pegli in the
diocese of Genes, November 21,
1854, and was ordained a priest
December 21, 1878.
Bologna, the present pope is
sued a pastoral letter strongly
condemning the" tango.
It has been 174 years since
the time of the last Pope Bene
dict. On his election to the
papacy in 1740 Cardinal Pros
pero Lambertini assumed that
title. It is an interesting fact
that the new pope was archbis
hop of Bologna when Pope Ben
edicte was born in Bologna. -
The choice falls on a cardinal
of Italian birth, as was expected
from tradition and also from
the disturbed conditions in Eu
rope which militated against
the selection of a pope outside
of the Italian heirarchy.

Robeson Farmer Stepped From

Meets Instant Death.
Thomas Chason, a resident of
the Lumber Bridge section of
Robeson, was instantly killed by
being run over by an automo
bile, Thursday afternoon at
New Home schoolhouse,- two
miles from his home. He step
ped from the running board of
the moving machine and was
run over. Mr. Chason's death
occurred a few hours after he
had narrowly escaped drown
ing While fishing his boat
sank with him. He managed
to save his life only to lose it a
few hours later.
Mr. Chason wTas a prospec

Asheville Gazette-News.
Sir Thomas Lipton has gone

Erin. The great international

sterner business for Britains
than sailing pleasure crafts for
silver cups.

A Suffragette Tragedy.
Asheville Gazette-News.
Sad news comes from the
camp of the English militant
suffragettes. They have lost
their "war chest."
The Women's Social and Po
litical Union, as Mrs. Pank
hurst's organization is called,
had an enormous campaign
fund. On August 7, Christo
bel Pankhurst announced in the
Suffragette that it had reached
$860,000. Since the militants
distrusted British banks, the
money was deposited abroad; it
is believed to have been banked
in Germany. And now not one
penny of it is available.
The magnificent London
headquarters of the union are
barred and bolted and the bril
liant purple curtains are drawn
close over the windows. The
purple, white and green banner
no longer floats from the flag
staff. There is a printed notice
outside the door: "The W. S.
P. U. has suspended work dur
ing the European crisis."
Other women's organizations
have formed relief corps and
are actively engaged in serving
their country in its need. The
militants, who might have won
public support by using their
wonderfully efficient machine
for similar service, are criti
cised now for their inactivity.
And their million dollar fund is
probably being used to pay Ger
man soldiers.
"STOP, LOOK, LISTEN."
Automobile Drivers "Flirting
With Death."
Greensboro Correspondence. 4th,
Many automobile drivers are
daily "flirting with death" by
failing to observe the highway
regulation, "stop, look listen,"
when approaching railway
crossings,declares Engineer M.
C. Glenn, of Southern Railway,
who makes a plea that people
using the public roads take
some consideration of the feel-;
ings of engineers as well as be J
more careful of their own
safety.
'Yesterday I was. engineer on
Southern -Railway train No. 108
and at Williams crossing, which
is about four miles west of Ral
eigh," says Mr. Glenn, "I only
missed striking an automobile
about two seconds, and in this
automobile were grown people
and children. If I had struck
the automobile and killed or in
jured those- people some one
would have said that the engin
eer failed to blow, etc., when in
fact, I had just sounded the
whistle for Thompson, answer
ed a signal from the'eonductor,
and had blown a road crossing
signal.- The.bell was ringing
also, but the driver of the auto
evidently did not hear any of
the signals for, when I came in
sight of him, which was for a
short distance on account of a
curve in the track, the driver
averted a collision by suddenly
cutting his car to the right and
I passed within 10 or 12'feet of
him."
Mr. Glenn calls attention to
the fact that if drivers of auto
mobiles and other conveyances
would observe the rule, "stop,
look, listen," when approaching
railroad crossings they would
safeguard .their own as well as
other people's lives to say noth
ing of the property loss in case
of accident.

Kansas City Flooded.

Night fell on Kansas City
with many sections under water
because of the overflowing of
Turkey creek. Three thousand
homes, it is estimated, were
flooded and several hundred
families driven from thier
homes. The water was -reced

from collapsing buildings. Two
men were killed when they
came in contact with a broken
trolley wire, and a number were
injured. The total loss is esti-'
mated at about $1,500,000.
Turkey creek, a drainage al

Paris and Bordeaux.
Asheville Citizen. 8th.
Not a few newspapers be
lieved that the removal of the
French capital from Paris to
Bordeaux was practically the
beginning of the end, as far as
the allies are concerned, and
that the change in the seat of
government denoted in sub
stance the flight before danger
of-the national administration.
As a matter of fact, military
experts agree that the transfer
was a wise move, and that it
evinced a mastery of tactics
which makes impossible the
-surrender of the government
proper as was the case in 1870.
Should Paris be taken by the
t Germans the government will
still be intact, and beyond the
frightful losses in lives and
property which might ensue
from a prolonged bombardment,
the capture of Paris would not
mean any more than the cap
ture of the smaller French cit
ies has meant up to date.
But the probabilities are that
the fall of Paris is a long way
from accomplishment. As
stated in Associated Press dis
patches yesterday morning,
before Pans can fall, the Brit
ish, French and Russian troops
must be annihilated or captur
ed before the Germans can en
ter the city on the Seine, it is
true that up to the present time
the Germans have approached
perilously near Paris in the face
ot the allies vigorous opposi
tion, but there is ground for the
belief that the allies have pur
posely led the enemy on in or
der to get him withm range of
the outer forts of the capital.
Such, at least, is the belief of
military observers, and the re
verses to the- German arms
south and east of Paris, report
ed last night, lend color to this
opinion. With the Parisian
forts and the allies in front,
while the Russians attack them
in the rear, the Germans have
anything but an easy task when
thuy attemp the capture of
Pans. The dispatches this
ment that the Germans are
fighting with their backs to
the capital, or rather the for
mer capital, and thus it would
seem that they are already on
the defensive.
Meanwhile the Kussians in
East Prussia are steadily push
ing on toward Berlin, and it
would not be surprising if the
German capital should fall into
their hands before the kaiser's
forces dine at Paris.
The Mergenthaler Fable.
Charlotte Observer.
The Observer had always un
derstood that the inventor df
the Mergenthaler typesetting
machine had been chiseled out
of his reward by a heartless
company, and that he died, in a
poor house, but Mr. Fred J.
Wharburton comes to the front
with some facts which are cal
culated to shatter this tradition.
Ottmar Mergenthaler was a
mechanic working at $3.50 a
day when he was engaged by a
party of Washington reporters
to wrork on a typesetting ma
chine which had been invented
bv Charles H. Moore. He
worked on it for two years, but
althouglfTie improved it, the
machine was not made a com
mercial success. He used the
money he got in securing an
education in the printing art
and by which he was afterward
enabled to perfect the Mergen
thaler machine. Mr. Mergen
thaler, instead of having been
robbed, died a rich man. He
had received liberal royalties
and from these his family has
been receiving an income of
$50,000 a year. The Observer
is glad to have this knowledge.
Mergenthaler, through his in
ventive genius, revolutionized
the printing business, and the
fact that he was enriched, and
not impoverished through it
makes the music of the Lino
type machine sound the pleas
anter every time one comes
within ear shot of it.

board of arbitration composed

if there should be any left, sit
down to determine what could
have been' settled without the
loss of a single life.
.As has been repeatedly stat
ed, the present conflict in Eu
rope is a war of kings. "This
war is attributable," says an
exchange, . "to - the survival in
.Europe of mediaeval - institu
tions long outgrown by modern
society. This is a war brought
on by the assissination of a
king's nephew, who was of no
more actual importance to mod
ern society than the nephew of
any other individual, citizen or
subject, in all Europe. Born of
mediaeval misconception of the
importance of royalty, this war
has speedily become a war of
inherited mediaeval traditions,
of imperial greed and glory.
But the glory of war is fading
fast. The people of the world
are no longer children who de
light in destruction and exalt
the destroyers. In the histories
of more enlightened ages, the
rulers responsible for this war
will not be described as heroes,
but as homicidal maniacs, as
J.aitors to the sacred trust sol
emnly imposed upon them to
promote the happiness and pro
tect the lives of their people."
It does not matter so much
now where the responsibility
for conditions which affect the
whole world should be placed.
The fact remains that the blame
for this disastrous war, rightly
or wrongly placed, does not
alter the frightful cost to hu
manity. But even as the na
tions of the earth, whether or
not they are involved in this
bloody quarrel are paying dear
ly, so shall the creators of this
war discharge thir debt to the
limit, or as Premier Asquith de
clared in the- house of commons
the other day, "to the last farth
ing." Ten,- fifteen or twenty
years can hardly: witness the
restoration of conditions that
existed beore Austria invited
certain disaster, but five or ten
years may see the passing 'of
crowned monarchs who butcher
nations to make a royal display.

Daniels Says President and
Congress Have Kept AH
Platform Promise?-.
Bar Harbor, Maine, Sept. 4.
Declaring that P.ident Wil
son and the democratic con
gress had kept ail platform
promises, Secretary of the
Navy Daniels, in a campaign
speech here to-night, added
that the President had set
America free to legislate with
out fear. ;
"Greater than the tariff law
itself, greater than the curren
cy law itself, greater than all
the needed constructive legis
lation of the record-making ad
ministration," said Mr. Dan
iels, "looms up this fact: That
the people may legislate with
out any longer fearing that our
business is going to be checked
ar our prosperity destroyed.
The right to enact such laws as
they conceive is best for them
at least has been restored to"
them.
"Under Wilson, the ideals of
Jefferson's first inaugural have
been released. Business no
longer strangles government ;
privileges no longer holds it up
on the highway and rifles its
pockets."
Mr. Daniels took up-4egisla-tive
measures successfully urg
ed by the administration and
said:
"Privilege had mobolized its
lobby against them, with the
rapidity of a European corps.
The propaganda of fear," he
said, "was worked to the limit.
"Certainly whatever else can
be said," declared Mr. Daniels,
"nobody can say that either the
President or congress has
drawn down upon themselves
that anathema 'the Almighty
hates a quitter.' On the very
night the President signed the
tariff bill he said 'we have only
taken one step,' and summoned
the congress to go forward with
the next step -the currency
legislation. He did not pause a
day or even think of quitting
and that has been the record in
every step of administrative
policy since the fourth of
March, 1913."
