LEO RALLIES AGAIN Another Remarkablo Change In Condition of Pope. KO WORSE THAN ON MONDAY SIGHT ratlrnt'n I OiipnM-il to Krrry Mrdlrnt Tlirorr-Maiinril 4 n lljlnc, lie ClrrelH Cardinal With "I'lraur He- Smied," HOMK, July 15. Another remark able rally In Tope Leo's condition lino occurred after a Ions; depression, In the nirae of which his hollucHs snITered 'ells of delirium, nnd at times his rensth sunk to the lowest ebb, and now lies In no worse condition than was on Monday evening, except for .e steady diminution of his strength. :pr. Rlsletl, master f the chamber, vlsitml the sick room and on enieixiiig stated that the ponti;:"s condition was unchanged. A little later the pope fell Into a sleep, which It has Just been an nounced Is fairly tranquil, althoiiKh the patient's respiration Is troublesome. The rally was characteristically op posed to every medical theory ami con sisted In getting out of bed, on which two hours previously the pope himself had made all preparations for death. Unsatisfied with this exhibition of vi tality, ho transacted private business and received four cardinals, with whom he talked In an animated way. In fact. Pope Leo's record, little of which appeared In the official bulletin, would be Incredible If it were not con firmed by the doctors and cardinals present In the sick chamber. None seem more perplexed than the doctors themselves. Itr. Lnppnul said frankly, "I cannot liiianine how the pope man Utes to keep alive." According to the physicians, the pon tiff may di at any moment, even in the midst of one of those extraordinary in tervals when his mind and body pre sent a comparatively sound appear ance. All those around the patient have long ceased to hold definite opin ions regarding the duration of the pon tiff's existence. The slow but pro gressive diminution of the strength of the august patient foretells the ap proaching end of the struggle with death, but the doctors will not venture to predict how near the end Is. Con stant relapses, they say, such ns cre ated alarm yesterday, are gradually wearing down the pope's constitution, which seems immune from any specific disease. Most persons are Inclined to the idea that Tope I.00 may go through perhaps two or three repetitions of the ups and downs till, ns Dr. Hossoui puts it, "his pulso sums forever." Throe causes may accelerate the end viz, continued inability to take nour lnnont, sudden heart failure or the rogresslon of the pleurle disease. The ' itter Is thought the least probable. As ay succeeds day It becomes patholog ically clear that It Is a case of a very old man dying because be has lived his allotted time. The pope himself ordered the four cardinals to be admitted ilnd received them standing, he who Is supposed to be at the point of death saying, 'Tlease be seated." He recounted the Impress ive ceremony of the morning when he received the benediction of the Francis can order. The cardinals Informed him of the worldwide prayers for his life. Pope Leo answered that he was much gratified, but that he was ready for his final departure, concluding by saying, "God's will be done." Even more striking was the pope's in terview with his secretary. Mgr. An gell. His holiness sent for him, saying he wished to see certain papers, which the secretary brought. Then after a short explanation Mgr. Angell wished to got the pope's decision on the mat ter, but Tope Leo said: "Well, well, not today. We will do that some other time." The pope Is reportod to have said, "If I am destined to die from this Ill ness I feel I shall expire on Thursday, the feast day of the Carmelite Madon na, whom I specially worship," The night was a rather sleepless one, particularly during the early morning hours. . The official bulletin spoke of agitated periods during the night nnd said that the general condition of the patient was more depressed. The de pression was marked and continued throughout the forenoon, at one time assuming an alarming aspect, when the pope became dizzy nnd seemed to lose his grasp on tangible surroundings. Outsldo of the passing periods of de pression the general conditions of mental nlertnoss continue. When Drs. Mazzonl and Lapponl made their call the pope Inquired about Dr. Uossoni, asking, "Why doesn't he come to see me?" Ilelng told that Dr. Rossoul was 111, he said, "Tell him he must take care of himself." It Is wonderful what different Impres sions people receive of the pope's con dition, according to their different tem peraments. When Cardinals Fiinuta, Segna and Crotonl left the sick room together Cardinal Farrata, rubbing his hands together, said: "The holy father Is almost convalesoeut. We shall soon see him in the Vatican gardons again." Cardinal Segna, making the sign of tho cross, sighed, "Our beloved pontiff Is lost," while Cardinal Crotonl, shaking his head In doubt, exclaimed: "Who knows? He may die; still, he may get better." King Victor Emmanuel has given or ders to keep the Qulrlnal palace In read iness, us he niuy come to Rome ut any time from his summer villa near Turin on account of the pope's condition or in case of his death.

WAS ALM08T LYNCHED. , Kefrro Who Aannnlttd Child Was t Snred hy QnlrW WIHrri Sheriff. AL1UNY, N. Y July IS.-Ttao quick , wit of a deputy sheriff at Coxsackle prevented the lynching of .lames Little, n nineteen-year-old negro hailing from Kiliunict hurst, N. J., who nenr New , Baltimore criminally nssaulted Emma Cole, aged clcvou years, daughter of Joseph Cole, n farmer living one mile ; back of New Raltlfhnre. The child, I with her five-year-old slsfer nnd Maud Lobdell, aged twelve, was picking ber ries by the roadside In the long woods between New llaltlmore and Coxsac kle, a mile from home, when Little ac costed them, asking for something to eat. The Lobdell girl went to her home, but her mother was not there, nnd, re turning to her companions, she found the negro dragging Kuuiia Cole Into the woods. She ran to her aid, and the tie. , gro pulled out n handful of her hair, j She then ran away, with the little Colo girl screaming for help, while Little dragged his victim Into the woods and nssaulted her, then uscaping after i threatening her with death If she moved. I In the menn while news of the rnp ture reached New Rultlmore, nnd a mob of 150 enraged farmers started for Coxsackle, augmented by a large num ber of striking Coxsackle molders nnd river meu, all frankly vowing their In tention to lynch the negro. Deputy Sheriff Vanloon, realizing that the coming of darkness would mean the breaking of tho flimsy local lockup and the violent death of his prisoner, smuggled the negro out nnd took him down the river on tho boat to Cntsklli, where there Is a well built jail. The Cole girl Is seriously Injured, but may recover. Her father and the neighboring farmers are in a terrible state of excitement nnd but for the deputy's quick action would certainly have lynched the negro. CAME DOWN ON THEM. Tent of t'hrlatlHM Kndenvor Conren-i tlon lllunn Over. DENVER, July 14.-The big tent En deavor, where the Christian Endeavor convention has been held for the past four days, was blown over at n late hour yesterday, mor- than 8,WK people being in the tent at the time. The Injured numbered nearly n score, but fortunately none of them was seri ously hurt. Mrs. Jessie M. Thornburgh of Denver was the most seriously in jured. Her nose was badly gashed, and she suffered several scalp wounds. The convention was In full progress at the time of the accident and, al though there were signs of ralu and some wind was blowing, no trouble was anticipated by the management. The sides of the tent had been raised to ad mit air, and this enabled the wind to lift up the big canvas ns if it were a balloon. The gust that turned the tent over came so 'suddenly that no prepara tion could be made to forestall the con sequences, aud when the wind swept under the tent the top puffed out like an Immense sail, the smaller guy ropes were pulled from their places, aud In a moment more the big poles were drawn from the ground. Immediately the 8.000 oceupnnts of the tent wore In a pnnic, heightened by the surenms of hundreds of women. Mr. Ramsey sprang to a chair and cnll ed loudly on the men to hold up the canvas and catch the large supporting poles as they fell. Hundreds of men sprang to their feet aud successfully carried out the Chicago man's sugges tion and thus averted serious conse quences from the nccldent. More than 1,000 people who had been seated near the walls of the tent escaped the folds, and these Immediately formed them selves Into a rescue corps. Those who had fainted and those suffering from slight Injuries were quickly removed to the hospital tent. PETITION TO RU88IA. President Itooaevclt Confer With Jewlih CltUena. OYSTER RAY, N.

One of the principal topics of con versation now is the Freeland Electric Coach Co., which is virtually a branch of the Trackless Trolley Co. of Scran- ton, and it may be of interest to our J readers to have the system explained It is a new and claimed to be practical means for running cars or coaches without track rails. In France and Germany there is a similar system in use. The idea of the trackless car is somewhat like the automobile except that the latter is propelled within it self. The system to be used in Free land differs from others in having a pair of trolley wheels pressed apart against two trolly wires, one of which is for the return current. By having the trolley wheels thus horizontal, as in the usual under running trolley, the trolley poles can reach any distance up to fifteen feet on either side with out jumping the trolley, and so give a total of thirty feet, thus the width of an ordinary street or road can be free ly traversed by the coaches. Any common grade may be climbed which is now made by an automobile, the question of grade resolving itself into one of power. The vehicles are equipped with two ten horse power motors. Hard rubber tires are used i on asphaltum or macadamized roads and flat steel on country roads. OO wire is used in the trolley lines. The coaches are arranged to carry from 25 to 30 people. In the winter a large trolley rolLr will be used to pack down the snow in the roadway. The cost of putting up the trolly wires and sup ports is about $1,600 per mile and of coaches with motors and trolley com plete $2,600. Try Thb Columbian a year. ni For Infants and Children.
