Governor Heard has refusecd to commute the death sentence of A. E. Batson, twice convicted in Lake Charles for the murder of the Earl family at Welsh, Calcasieu parish, on the ground, as he said, that lie had not beoon presented with suffi clent evidence of the condemned man's innocence to warrant his in terfence with the action of the courts. He showed plainly that his sympaty was with the be reaved mother, but stood firm on his convictions of Batson's guilt. When Mr. 8ompavrac, his attor ney, announced Governor Heard's decision to Batson, he, of course, showed slight signs of being af fected by it, but said nothing. On being interviewed by a reporter, he said that there was "nothing doing for the paper." After tell. lng Mr. Sompayrac that his attor neys had done all they could for him, he thanked them for it, and retired to his couch. Yesterday (Friday) was the day named for his execution. Will A.

Pope Plus X had a fainting fil Tuesday evening, while celebrating mass. His Holiness soon revived, The strain was too much for a man of his age, and there is alarm felt for his future welfare. The report that Mgr. Merry del Val, enemy of America, is to be Papal Secretary of State, causes consternation among liberal Cath olics.

BIOGR I:A PI'ICAL SKET'CH OF THEII 1NEW HEAD OF THE CHURCH. Cardinal Guisep.p.arto was born at Ri4'se, I'rovince of Venice, July 2, 1i:3. f1 was created Cardinal and Patriarch of Venice June 12, 1893. lHe was very learned in the ecclesiastical doctrines, is modest, energetic, a good administrator and olga nizer, a patron of the arts, and his seriousness has always been proverbial. Early in April, Pope Leo, in a conversation with Father Perosi, the Italian composer, said, in speaking of Cardinal Sarto: "Hold him very dear, Perosi, as in the future he will be able to do imuch for you. We firmly believe he will be our successor." lie has been known for many vears :as one of the. greatest preachers in the church. Cardinal Sarto belonged to the Ecclesiastical Congregation of Bishops and Regulars, Sacred Rights, Indulgences and Sacred Relics. He enjoyed great popu larity in his diocese. He is hon ored by all for his purity, for the strict uprightness of his life and for liberal ideas. He is a modest and agreeable man, highly culti vated, very kind-hearted and still strong and robust in spite of his (8 years. He has never taken great part in the political and pub lic life of the church, but divided his time between study and good works. Although most faithful to the Holy See, he was presented to the king and queen of Italy in Venice. Hle was considered among the more liberal members of the Italian Episcopate and Sacred College. It is said that Leo XIII sided with him on one occasion when Sarto disapproved of Ram r pol~ls 1) o icy. ' The lilt of liroadway. "THE MAN IN THE BOX" IS TU GREATEST NICKEL EATER OF ALL. The man in the box is the hit c Broadway. The bears are cryin for more of him, says the Nei f York Sun. Not since the gamblio, machines were pulled out and sen to junk has there been such a nick t el eater. The first Broadway hote to put one in the bar wasn't a bi enthusiastic about it. The prc prietor sat it there to oblige friend. Pretty soon a wine buye happened in. "What is the game ?" he wantei to know. "Just a new weighing machine, said the bartender. "lDrop in nickel and it tells your weight." "And plays a tune ?" asked th man. "No, just tells your weight." "I can get that done for a cen on the elevated station," said th wine buyer. "But what's the horn ?" "That's where the weight come out," explained the bartender. "'A ticket with ,my fortune oi it?" "No, it just tells your weight" "I'm on," finally said the wing man. "But, say, your'e the pooresi demonstrator I ever saw. Yot couldn't sell gold pieces for cop pers.' The man -got on the machine put in a nickel, and instantly the voice shouted "one ninety-six." The bar-room woke up thi sound. It was distinctly a pho nogragh voice, but the sudden ness and volume of the answel were catching. Men fought for a chance to spend their nickels and the cigar counter was madi busy with the changing of larger coins. When the nickel goes in and th weighing apparatus is put in me tion the thing which falls to the weight of the person on the scaler releases a cylinder which drops in to a phonograph. The cylinde. has three or four words of tht man's weight, the phonograph ut tIae thornm anA thau onwa n,*.IndA K.
