THE MANITOWOC PILOT.
VOLUME XLIIL-NO. 14.
AN AUDIENCE
WITH THE POPE.
A Cuest of Mrs. Timothy Kelley
Highly Honored.
IMPRFSSIONS OF BISHOP OF ROME.
Wonderful Old Man With Giant Brain and
Frail Body.
MADE TWENTY MINUTES’ ADDRESS.
Mrs. Keefe Says He Highly Eulogized Arch
Bishop Ireland—An interesting and
Readable Interview.
Mrs. Mary Keefe, of Chicago, a guest
at the home of Mrs. Capt. Timothv Kel
ley, has just returned from a European
visit, and she speaks interestingly of
continental countries. Mrs. Keefe visited
Paris, where her daughter makes her
home while studying art, and like all
who go to that beautiful city, she was
deeply impressed with its grace, solidity
and permanency. Mrs. Keefe has pleas
ent recollections of boulevards, palaces, i
secular and religions architecture, art
gallaries and the inagnificenf gardens of !
Verseilles and the forests of Fonten- 1
hleau. It is the visit which Mrs. Keefe ;
made to Rome, however, that has left j
upon her mind the most lasting impres-'
sions. She had an audience with the
Pope and this is what she said of nim:
“Leo XIII came into the audience
chamber in the Vatican palace, carried
in the sacred chair, and when my
eyes beheld him I thought of him as a
spiritual shadow, but a potent reality.
His face, full of benevolence, is lighted
by two eyes which Hash with penetra
ting force, yet they are kindly eyes and
speak sympathy for a world. His conn
tenance and forehead are markedly in
tellectual. and it seems paradoxical that
a physical fabric so delicate and a form
so bent, can sustain the giant brain
which 1 know him to posess."
'He spoke with us for twenty minutes.
His words were tenderness themselves.
He eulogized America and the develope
n.cat roti---.'.V. on every -hand He
said the American people were the most
progressive in the world, ami he had
high praise foi the American Catholics,
laying special emphasis on his admira
tion for Archbishop Ireland. It seemed
to me that the twenty minutes he occu
pied in talking did not fatigue him. At
the conclusion of his address lie was
carried back to his private apartments.
I shall never forget my visit to the
pope."

STUDENTS
WERE DELAYED.
But Awoke Early on Monday and
Saved a Condition.
LOCOMOTIVE MET WITH ACCIDENT-
The Boys Were Rendered Very Angry
By Breakage.
THEY WANTED A SPECIAL TRAIN
Dispatcher Looked at Them Grimly and
Said "No.”—Left Milwaukee on
Monday Morning.
A happening something in the nature of
a joke on the boys returning to Madison
by last Sunday afternoon's train. Most
of the students had been landing the
thoughtfulness of the railroad officials
in putting on the Sunday train. The
afternoon train just suiting the boys,
enabling them to reach Milwaukee in
time to catch the 7.40 p. m., train from
that city to Madison.
On last Sunday afternoon’s train there
were forty students, some from this city
and the balance from Sheboygan and
they were all in high spirits as becomes
boys of their age. When nix miles out
from Sheboygan, however, an accident
happened, the piston rod of the engine
broke and a delay of three hours occur
led, also necessitating a change of loco
! motives.
It was nearly 10 o’clock before the
young chaps reached Milwaukee and
the Madison train was gone, and there
was some heartburning because the stu
dents knew they would bo conditioned
if they failed to report at roll call at the
university the first period after the
holidays.
The forty boys, on reaching Milwau
kee, presented themselves to the train
dispatcher, asking for a special Madison
train. The dispatcher smiled grimly
and answered • no," telling the -tudimts
they could catch the 4.0 h am . train
Monday morning and thus save tie . ~n
dition. This the hoys reluctantly did
The aggravating part,however, was that
a special Chicago train was made np
to carry only twenty passengers.

AN INTERESTING DENTAL CASE.
Rights of ttie Board to Enforce an
Examination.
OR TO PASS ON VALLE OF DIPLOMA.
The Board's Enactions is Wide and Its Dis
cretionary Power is Quite
Extensive.
Dr. H. L. Banzhaf, a member of the
State Board of Dental Examiners has
been vindicated by the Supreme court
in the position he took with regard to
the board's power to withhold a license
to practice dentistry where the appli
cant refuses to be examined. The de
cision was handed down on Monday and
necessarily the doctor is in high spirits
and well he may be. The result of the
case is that efforts of the Wisconsin C< 1-
lege of Physicians and Surgeons to get
recognition for its Dental department
from the State Board of Dental Examin
ers have failed, the Supreme court hav
ing reversed the decision of Judge Elli
i ott of the Milwaukee Circuit court issu
ing a peremptory writ of mandamus
i compelling the board to recognize the
school for Milwaukee county.
William L. Coffey is a graduate of
the Dental department of Physicians
and Surgeons, and brought the action
because the Stab Hoard of Dental ex
aminers refused to recognize his diploma
from the school The authorities of the
Wisconsin college illeged discrimin i
tton against them by the state Ik ard
whose members were said to be favor

trial that the board was basing its action
on investigation.
