CHARLOTTE NEWS, JULY 14. 903. X i I I 8 s i H w ,. . - THE OHO LIFE OF POPE LEO X!!! THE WORK, THE SLEEP AND THE . DIET OF THIS REMARKABLE OLD MAN, POSSESSED OF AL MOST YOUTHFUL VIGOR -HIS FAITHFUL VALET. In view of the remarkable vitality displayed by Pope Leo XIII, in this ilast struggle for life, the following :sktch of .the daily routine observed by this wonderful old man is of unusual interest. .- A writer in a recent issue of the Paris Figaro thus told of the Pope's daily life: . ' The greatest modification in Leo's life is his almost entire abandonment of his walks in the gardens. As a mat ter of fact, the Pope himself says that he has no need of open air. If at times the heat is excessive it is pos sible that he has himself carried iu a Chair to the pavilion he has had built on the highest point in the garden, and fhus enjoys, so to say, a little country ife for a few hours; but I do not be lieve that he cares for this often. In his apartments the Pope can gee, by going from one room to another, such Blight variations of temperature as are sufficient for his delicate system. . There are also some changes in his manner of saying mass. Formerly on Sundays the Pope celebrated mass in the large chapel of his apartments and invited thither persons of note who were passing through Rome. For more than two years, however, on Sun days and weekdays, with rare excep tions, he l as said mass in the little chapel naxt to his bedroom and no one is admitted. His servant Centra assists him. Nor is this mass said at a fixed hour, as used to be the custom. Now he celebrates it at 7 or 3 or even 9 whenever he has happened to -awaken. - A gool idea of Leo s health can be had from his appetite and his manner Of living. He has always been a light eater an J for several . years past, na turally, he has eaten less than ever. Having no teeth and with a stomach which, always feeble, now digests with difficulty, it is necessary for him to have-a special cuisine. -. In the morning Centra brings hiis chocolate, milk and two very soft boiled -:?gs. The k'tchen is u. story above the Papal apartments and i? connected vith them by a narrow and straight staircase, which is usel for no othor purpose. The dishes are taken first to the credenziera (office), where Signor Giuseppi MacelU is in command. He gives them to Centra, who is in the anu -chamber, an-I the latter alone serves Leo and assists him at his meal - , Macelli carries Ir-st a wicker basket in which is a simple copper tray, with the co ver and napkin marked with the Jetters S. A. P.," which stands for 'Sacred arcl Apostolic Palace." Then come the oishes. The Pope really takes regularly only a bouillon or a potage, which is the chief itm of his nourishmf.iit Ths rest of the. meal consists of little bV:Is of hashed merit or mince 1 chicken, eggs, well-cooked vegetables and very ripe fruits. Ordi narily coffee is no; served, and as to wine, the Pope dmks but liti.I-, but it is an tjcellent daret sent tc him from a convent in Bordeaux. He 'utb it, as if with water, with a little white wine of Grottaf errata. When itc dishes have been taken back to the office it is seen that he has scarcely touched anything; that what fie. has e.--ten would hardly be enough for a child of 6. ijeus tipartmenis nave no ainer room. He passes tte day in his bed room, works ther?, eats there an J gives his ordinary audiences there The room is divided by a cumin which conceals the ted. Near the cur tain and leaning against the wall are the familiar armchair, from : which his ideas and thoughts go out through the world, and a little square table.

If Leo has changed much physically with years there is no failing in his intelligence and will power. I can say thajt no one in his entourage comes be fore him without a slight quickening o( the pulse, because nothing'eseapes him and his remarks, although always calm, are short and to the point. There is no relaxation in him. The Pope is still the legate, the firm Chamberlain Pecrci. . V A GOOD THING. German Syrup is the special pre scription of Dr. A.

Fifty years ago, hay fever had not boon n?.Trpd,- but undoubtedly 'people suffered ; then as they do now with storms of sneezing, profuse watering i of the pves. excessive running at the nose, intense smarting and itching and stuffed up feeling in the head. The direct causes appear to be heat, dust and the pollen of flowers. Although hay fever may occur at any season of the year, it is most common and severe in August, and preventive treatment should be adopted some weeks before the time the disease is due. Prior to the discovery of the re markable effects following the use of Hyomei, the only treatment that gave relief to hay fever sufferers, was change of climate. The use of Hyo mei enables any one to breathe air at home which is like that of the Adiron- dacks, the White Mountains or other health resorts where healing balsams fill the air with nature's germ de stroyer, ozone. Those who are subject to hay tever shoul.l beein the use of Hyomei at once and thus prevent the disease. An ounce of prevention is worth more than a pound of cure in tne treat ment of hay fever. R. H. Jordan & Co. nas seen tne good effects following the use of Hy omei in all diseases of the respira tory organs, and they are willing to sell Hyomei to any hay fever sufferer, with the understanding that if it does not give satisfaction, the treatment will cost nothing. ELEPHANT AS A SURGEON. Big Jewel Pulls a Wire Nail Out Of Her Own Foot. New York, July 10 Jewel, the big elephant in the Central Park menage rie, limped a little on Sunday ween sue was taken into the yard t Jr an outing, and when Director Smith observed it he decided that she was troubled with corns. The limp was somewhat worse on Monday, and the Director ordered Billy Snyder, the elephant man, who is also official chiropodist, to pare her corns. They hadn't been cut for a year, and as she had been confined to her stall since last summer there had been no chance to wear them off by walking. Corns grow not on the animal's toes, but on the soles of its feet. The keeper pared the corns on Tues day with the assistance of Keeper Pe ter Shannon, a horseshoe's knife and a carpenter s drawkmfe. The corns were small ones and easily removed, and Jewel seemed to be pleased at their removal, but she continued to limp yesterday when she put her right hind foot on the ground in walking. lou must have skipped a corn on that foot," Mr. Smith said to Snyder, and told him to go at it again with the drawknife. The keeper gave the knife a few turns on the grindstone to get an edge and went to the elephant house with Shannon. The keeper ordered Jewel to get down on her knees, so that he could get at the sole of the limping foot. An elephant is one of tne few animals that bend the hind, legs forward in order to expose the soles of the feet. Jewel got on herxhind knees when commanded and Shannon straddled the leg to hold it firm while the chiropodist was at work. Snyder squatted on one side and took off a slice of the calloused skin with the drawnife. Then he dis covered a nail imbedded in the foot. He seized he head of the nail with a pair of pii. ers and piled. The nail came out about an inch and then stuck, as it was bent in the center. Jewel trumpeted in pain, and swayed from side to side. She swung her head sround and reached back to the lame foot with her trunk, and before the men knew what she was up to she had entwined the finger of her trunk about the nail and with a sudden movement she pulled it out and dropped it on the floor. It was a three-inch wire nail. She got upon her feet and seemed to be relieved, but Director Smith went to the elephant house, and when he saw the nail he said there was danger of lockjaw, and he ordered another oper ation on the foot to kill any tetanus germs that might be present. The animal was again made to kneel and the wound in its foot was enlarged and cleaned out with spirits of turpen tine and germicides. The wounded foot fs.then dressed and bandnged.

Miles Had No Orders, But Only Permission To Do It. Capt. Jerome B. Titlow, of the Third Pennsylvania Artinery, wuu was office of the day at Fort oMnroe when General Miles had Jenerson Davis thrown down on the ground with violence and held there wnue irons were riveted on his anfcies, writes the following interesting letter to the Army and Navy Journal; St. Paul. Minn., . June 29, iau. To the Editor of the Army and Navy Journal: In a recent issue of your paper I noted a communication reflecting upon the strictures of Geh. Nelson A. Miles, United States Army, has put upon soldiers of the United States in the Philippines in regard to "bar barous and inhuman treatment," and I also note your editorial comment upon the communication, and in so far as your correspondent has drawn a parallel between these acts and the act of General Miles in placing irons upon Jefferson Davis in Fortress oMn roe in May, 1865, I- beg to correct the opinion which you have formed in the premises. General iMles never had official orders to put irons upon Jef ferson Davis. I was officer of the day, upon the date in question, when irons were put upon Mr. Davis. General Miles called me into headquarters and told me that he had "authority" to place Mr. Davis in irons, and in con firmation of his orders General Miles exhibited to me a personal letter from the then Secretary of War, Stanton, which evidently was in reply to a communication from .General Miles, in which the Secretary in effect said: "If you consider the safe-guarding of the prisoner requires it, you may place him in irons, at your discre tion." There was nothing mandatory from the Secretary of War, all was left to the discretion of the commanding of ficer; nor was the communication of ficial, and I am sure that a review of the files of the Adjutant-General's of fice will reveal no official communica tion making it mandatory upon Gen eral Miles to put Jefferson Davis in irons, and, further, I shall say that it was not an act necessary to inssure the safe retention of the prisoner within the custody o fthe United States. Jerome B. Titlow, Captain Company K, Third Pennsyl vania Heavy Artillery, officer of the day. at Fortress Monroe upon the day that Mr. Davis was ironed; and under whose command the work was done.

Many suaaen deaths are caused by it heart disease, pneumonia, heart failure or apoplexy are often the result of kidney disease. If kidney trouble is al lowed to advance the kidney-poisoned blood will attack the J vital organs or the kidneys themselves break down and waste avay cell by cell. Bladder troubles most always result from a derangerpent of the kidneys and a cure is obtained quickest by a proper treatment of the kidneys. If you are feeling badly you can make no mistake by taking Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great kidney, liver and bladder remedy. It corrects inability to hold urine, and scald ing pain in passing it, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity o: being compelled to eo often during the day, and to get up many times during the night.
