SIMPLE LIFB O THE ]NEW POPE. Day, Beginning at 5 O'clock, is a Round of Exacting Duties--A ModCt, Affable Man. 10 Rome Corr. in New York Sun. Pius X. rises very early. When his valet, young Sili, enters the pope's bedroom a little after 5 o'clock the pope is almost always up and reciting his breviary. At 6 he celebrates mass in the little ora tory, arranged immediately after his elevation to the papal throne. The oratory is quickly described. Opposite the window is a wooden altar, and above it fastened to the wall, is an ivory crucifix. Six bronze candlesticks are placed on either side of a modest tabernacle of carved wood, gilded. The altar rests on a rug which covers half the room. In this there are also a prie-dieu and a gilded armchair: a wardrobe for the utensils is on the right. From the middle of the oratory hangs a chandelier of the exquisite Murano glass. The furni ture of the oratory is quiet but taste ful. Since the day of his coronation Pius X. has never failed to say mass. On the day after his eleva tion, as the oratory was not ready, it was thought that the pope would abstain from the celebration; but with the modesty that characterize s him he-declared that the pope could surely celebrate mass as the cardi nal did, and going into the picture gallery he said mass at one of the altars that had been erected for the use of the conclave. When Pius X. says mass it is usually served by his private sec retary and lasts half an hour. Then, having removed his vestments, the pope kneels on his prie-dien and listens devoutly to the mass o thanksgiving. Next the pove breaks his fast with a cup of coffee mercly. The norning passes quickly. If the heat is not too great Pius X. goes down into the gardens, where he likes to walk, stopping to enjoy the coolness of the shady path or to look at the magnificent flower beds and the countless variety of plants. Meanwhile he chats with the secret chamberlain on duty and with the officer of the Guardia Nobile. The holy father never fails to go and pray at the grotto of Our Lady of Lourdes; he has taken special care to do so in these last days. as he wishes to associate himself in spirit withI the p)ilgrimlage undertakeni by Italian Catholics to lhe greatest sanctuary that Franice has dedicated to the holy v'irginl. In the verdure of the splendid vatican gardens Pins X. tinds a p)leasanIt distraction from his cares, and lhe does not hide the fact ;but se rious occupations call him back to hsprivate apartments, so that his wak cannot last more than an hour. In his study he finds the analysis of the day's correspondence, which is very voluminous and to which he gives up sonme time. Then he receives the reports af the various congregatiois and gives an enlight ened judgment on all important, complicated or doubtful questions. Pius X. cannot bear carelessness, lack of order, of regularity or of ex actneiss. Extremely conscientious, he does not despise the smallest details. Next comes Mgr. Merry D)el Val, pro-secretary of State, and his holi ness studies with him the delicate and dIi ficult relations with foreign governments. After that the offi cial receptions, whether private or for business, begin. According to the day of the week or of the mouth stated audiences are granted to the monsignor major domio, to the car dlinals, to the various congrega tions, to the secretaries and to thme high officials, but it is the special audiences that tire thme pope miost, though lie grants thiem rather freely b*13hops, prelates, ambassadors, rep resentatives, Italian or foreign per sotis of note. With one it means merely an interview, with another a matter of business to be settled or a question to be decided; he encour ages, comforts, blesses all. His affability has already won all hearts to Pius X Those who come in contact with him speak of him as of a father. It suffices to stand for a few minutes in an ante room and watch those who come from an audience, especially if it be the first one they have obtained, to see what affection the pope inspires at once. The faces of all beam with joy, many even weep with emotion. The other day an old prelate from north Italy, coming from an audi ence, stopped, as is the custom, in the hall called the Equerries' hall, in order to lay aside the violet cloak, in accordance with etiquette. While the servant was helping him the prelate was so worked up that he could not hold back his tears. The servant, rather alarmed, asked him the cause of his emotion. The pre late's answer was overheard: "If you cotild have the happiness of speaking to Pius X. you would be as much moved as I am. That man is a saint!" Toward noon the pope dines; af ter that very frugal meal he takes a short nap in his bedroom, a rest that does not last more than an hour. Then he begins to recite his breviary again and takes up his other occupations. At 6 in the evening, accompanied by Don Pes cini, the intelligent and sympathetic young priest who for the moment takes the place of Mgr. Bressani as the pope's private secretary; by Mgr. Bisleti, the chamberlain, and by Sili, he takes a walk in the third loggia, where some unknowr artist painted the geographical charts of his time and where Man tovani, Calli and Consoni decoratec the ceiling and painted some epi sodes of Pius IX.'s pontificate. Usually when the pope comes out on the loggia lie finds there some 20 persons, men and women, most ly strangers come to Rome in order to kiss the pope's foot. He talks for a few minutes with all, aston ishing all present not only by his marvelous knowledge of facts, even of little importance, but also with the extieme kindness and paternal afliabilty with which lie receives the visitors. WVhen the audiences are over, the pope remains alone with his secre tary, the doors opening onI the loggia are closed, or, ini case for the s,ake of aiir they' are not closedI, a gua rd is p)laced at every entranice to keep peclple out. T1heni the pope is wholly free and walks up and down'i talking with the secretary. Often he recalls his owvn Venice, looks at the paintings and decorations, and above all never fails to cast a glance over Rome and the suir rounding hills. Viewed from that height, the hills stretch out in a tangled network, lighted by the sun setting on the horizon under a great canopy of clouds of gold and of fire. The walk does not last much longer, and the pope withdraws into his modest pi9visionmal apartment, taking up again his interrupt:d labors till about 9; then Pius X. takes his second meal of the dlay. After half an hour lie finishes recit ig his breviary and if he has a little time lie may readt a newsp'Iper, but never later than half past ro, when lie goes to rest-and lhe neecds .Innominato.
