THE SUMMER SCHOOL A I’rocesBlon Headed by the Swim Guards and Ended by the New Pope Surrounded by Noble Guards With Drawn Swords Starts the Cere* mony — Actual Coronation Takes PInee at Conelnslon of the Mass, the First Cardinal Deaeon Otnclat- Inv. Papal coronations differ from those of temporal sovereigns, and there seems to be a very' general impression that popes cro n themselves, since by reason of their exalted rank no one is qualified to place the tiara on their head. This is not the case, for the i pope is crowned by a member of the < snored college, who is not a cardinal bishop or even a cardinal priest, but merely a cardinal deacon. It is Car dinal Borromeo who crowned Leo XIII. j It is to Cardinal Macchi, now the senior of the cardinal deacons, to whom would fall the lot of crowning the next occupant of the chair of St. Peter, says Marquise De Fontenoy in the St. Louis Globe-Democrat. It remains to bo seen whether the j next coronation will take place in St. Peter’s or In the Sistine chapel in the It Is like so many other symbols of re ligion and of royalty of oriental origin, for Herodotus describes the crown of the rulers of Persia as a “tiara.” Nich olas L, who was the first pope to be | crowned and who occupied the chair of St. Peter from 850 to 809, was | crowned with an ordinary episcopal i miter surrounded by a single crown. In 1290 Pope Boniface VII. added a ; second crown to the miter In order to ! indicate his sovereignty over tli ..ga 1 temporal as well as spiritual. This gave much offense to the Germ n em peror and to the rulers of Fir ace and England, and it was partly in conse quence of this that Pope Clement V. added the third crown to indicate the spiritual supremacy of the papacy over the then three known uuarters of the globe—that is to say, Uurope, Asia and : Africa. The reign of a pope, I may add in i conclusion, dates from his coronation instead of from his election, although ho is fully qualified to enjoy all the prerogatives of pontiff even prior to his coronation.

If it is Cardinal Vanmitelli or one of the members of the sacred college who are disposed to be friendly with the Italian government, it is probable that the coronation will take place in St. Peter’s, whereas if the nest pope be longs to the intransigent party it will take place, like that of Leo XIII., in the Sistine chapel. The ceremony will take place in the morning, and will commence with a procession headed by,the Swiss guards and ended by the new pope, wearing a golden miter, carried aloft on the sedia gestatoria, with a silver damask can opy borne above his head, flanked by the flabelli. the great fans of ostrich and peacock feathers, and surrounded by the noble guards with drawn swords. As I he pope enters either the Sistine chapel or St. Peter’s—that is to say. the place where the corona tion takes place—he is stopped three times by one of the clerks of the chapel, who, kneeling, sets fire to some flax on the points of u three pronged stick, exclaiming iu a loud and mourn ful voice, “Pater sanete, sic transit gloria mundi” (holy father, thus passes away the glory of the world). Having descended from the sedia gestatoria. the pope proceeds to the al tar and after a brief prayer commences the introit of the mass, which on this occasion is celebrated by him. At the end of the confession lie takes his place on the throne on the Teft side of the al tar, while the first cardinal bishop re cites the three customary prayers over Then the pope returns to the al tar, kneels on the step, and while the first cardinal deacon removes his gold miter the second cardinal deacon in vests him with the pontifical pallium, or hand of white wool worn on the shoulders, with a short band extending downward on the back and breast. This pallium is adorned with three black silk embroidered crosses and con stitutes the most saered and important tokens of his office. As soon as the pope is invested there with he resumes his miter, reusceuds his throne and then receives the hom age of the principal dignitaries present.

(Correspondence of The Ledger.) Washington, I). C., July 10 —An other criticism that one hears talked about in the corridors of the hotels in this political center is the close per- platform adopted by the Iowa repub licans was a straddle and a fake on t he tariff reform and revision question, and all the analyses of it on earth could make nothing else out of it. I said some time ago that it was a gold brick. The Iowa republicans in conveition assembled have proved my assertion correct. Gov. Cummins says bn will continue to make the same kind of tariff revision speeches throughout the campaign that he has beeo making heretofore. If be does he will be speaking through a pro tection muzzle all the time. He says he wrote the tariff plank in the plat form himse 1 !. If be did he was hypno tized by Senator Allison wnile he was doing it, for it talks one way while he talks another when he is out from the influence of the pussy-footed Senator who, as John J. Ingalls once said, “could walk on hens’ eggs all day and never scratch a shell.” Tbe “stand- natters” nnd the American Protective sonal relations of the President and bo Congressman Littauer, of New York, h ave won a victory. They have forced the republicans of Iowa to adopt tbe regulation protection platform. What will the republicans who want tariff[[revision do about it? Charles A. Edwards.

JSH bishops kiss his foot and his right knee, but receive no embraces, while minor dignitaries of tbe church and laymen kiss ids foot, or, rather, the cross on his BlipiH*r, alone. The mass is thei iroceeded with, and after the collects the senior cardinal deacon, standing at the lowest step of the altar, cries three times, “Long life to our lord, Leo XIV. (or whatever oth er title the new pope may assume), tlie bishop and universal pontiff given to us by God,” and thereupon, turning to ward tlie pope, hands him the papal crozier, which is distinguished from those of all cardinals, archbishops and bishops and abbots In that it is sur- mounted by a cross instead of a shep herd’s crook. This form of crozier is exclusively used by the pontiff, nnd it Is said that one of the reasons why the crozlers of the other dignitaries of the church have the upper end bent and are surmounted by a crook is as a sym bol of the fact that their owners are compelled to bow to the will of the su preme pontiff. Not until the conclusion of the mass does the actual coronation take place. The pope proceeds from the altar to his seat on the throne, and thereupon, while the senior cardinal deacon pro nounces a prayer over him, the second cardinal deacon removes from the pon tiff’s head the golden miter which he has until that time worn. The first cardinal deacon then places the tiara upon the pope’s head, with the words: “Take this tiara, adorned with three crowns, and know that thou art the father of all princes nnd sovereigns, the ruler of the globe, and on earth the vicegerent of our Saviour, Jesus Christ, to whom all honor and glory for ever and ever, amen.” The pope then rises and, wearing the tiara, delivers that benediction which completes the ceremony of coronation and which until the reign of Leo XIII. was invariably given from the external balcony of St. Peter’s to the faithful assembled In tbe vast square below. Tbe tiara, like tbe cioss surmounted crozier above described, Is an attribute which belongs to the pope exclusively. Important Kxperimenta Brina Con- duotiMl by u UritiNh County.

After the stones had been well heated they were spread out and allowed to become somewhat cooL Then they were deposited from five Inches to six inches thick on a wooden platform and covered with tar—five gallons, with a little pitch, being suffi cient for a ton of stoue. The stones were turned over and over, so that each had a'coat of shining black, and after ward placed iu a heap to mature. At the present time the stones are being carted to Monksgate, on the Brighton road, and spread to an aver age depth of about five inches. They are consolidated by a ten ton steam roller, and clean sand is sprinkled over the surface just for a covering. About 100 tons of quartzite lias been treated and will be sufficient to lay down upon a length of from 125 to 150 yards of road.

W’onderment was then expressed that such a thing should have occurred un less President vVbeeler bad been specifically asked by some one to omit the names of these two generous don ors to the upbuilding of the Univers ity of California. Although he has been roasted to a brown turn by tbe press of California and asked to ex plain, Mr. Wheeler has never uttered a word by way of explanation for his uncalled for and unheard of omission. Tbe explanation has now come by in ference and the conclusion is irre- Bistable.

Out in California Wheeler, at the re quest or suggestion of a soul so small that three hundred of th^m could dance the highland fling on the point of a cambric needle, performs the act of an ingrate and insults tbe spirit of bis state. In Washington he gets his pay by being allowed to fawn at the feet of alleged greatness and stick bis knees under presidential mahogany. He was entitled to anything tbe President could give him. He saved him from listening to the applause that would have followed tbe reading of tbe name of Hearst in California, for it is a name that fears and dislikes. And no Mr. Hearst has told tbe truth so often concerning Roosevelt and hie party that every time the President sees a New York American be shies at it like bis erstwhile moon-eyed broncho at a black stump. * * * A Birthday Dinner.

The table was loadrd with every good thing, even olenty of ice cream; but when Tom and Willie left it there certainly were some empty dishes. This day was Aunt Jane’s seventy- third birthday. In our conversation she said ; “Well, I have staid here by myself day after day, and don’t know who 1 am work ing for, nor whether I am living to any purpose or not; and I feel some times like I would be glad to know that my time here was short. Then I look upon the brighter side, and say it’s all right.” “Yes,” 1 said, “never mind where your work is; never mind whether it is in sight or not; never mind whether your name is connected with it, you are work ing for eternity. If you cannot see results here in the hot working day, tbe cool evening hours are drawing near when you may rest from your labors, and then they may follow you. So let us do our duty, and trust God to give the seed we sow ‘a body as it hath pleased Him.’ ” So we parted, wishing Aunt Jane happy returns of her birthday. “Yes,” ehej said, “but don’t give me such a surprise, for when you all came I thought some one was dead.” Mrs. R.
