Rome, Aug. 4. At 11:40 o'clock
this morning Cardinal Macchi, sec
retary of the Apostolic Briefs, ap
peared on tme balcony or the Vati
can and announced that. Cardinal
Joseph Sarto, patriarch i of Venice,
had been elected pope of the Holy
See. The new pontiff has selected the
name of Pius X. ,
Pope Sarto was born June 2, 1835,
at Riese, and was one of the most
learned cardinals. His election is
believed to be a compromise, as he
has taken no interest in Vatican
politics. . .;: -. "'v".
Pius X will probably devote
himself to : religious affairs almost
exclusivniy," except to urge concilia
tion, as did the late Pope Loo.
The charitable disposition of oar-
to has gained for him the affections
of the multitudes of the Vatican.
An immense crowd had gathered
at St. Peter's at as early as 10:45
o'clock this morning watching the
Vatican stovepipe. It was the larg
est multitude . that has ' gathered
since the beginning of the conclave
and numbered about 12,000.
When government officials saw
the enormous streajns of humanity
wending their way to St. Peter's the
number of troops was increased in
order to suppress promptly any dis
order, each as whistling, catcalls,
sarcastic shout? should the first of
the day's ballot fail to elect. This
unruly spirit was shown somewhat
at last night s ballot.
' Sarto, the prelate, is from the
Venitian provinces. He began his
studies early at his native place
and was paesed to college at Castel
Franco, where he was ordained
Driest and although very young; he
was given the parish of Tombolo.
He was soon transferred to a larger
parish in 1867. The bishop of
Trevi-o recognizing ' Sarto's great
merit and ability,' nominated him
Canon of the Cathedral, where he
became vicar general. -
. In 1884 he was made bishop of
Mantova. Here his Teal activity,
cleverness and scope was not long
in coming to the front. In 1893, at
the age of 58, he was chosen patri
arch of Venice, but the government
refused its permission because of
some political act. He obtained
permission, however, and when giv
en the patriarchate he was made
cardinal.
The new pope had - no expecta
tion of the pontificate and bought a
round trip ticket when he left Ven
ice to attend the conclave.
Placerville, Cal., Aug. 4. It .is
believed that at least five of the es
caped convicts are not more than a
dozen miles from this city, in hid
ing in the dense countrv this side
of Grizzly Flat. . "
It has been verified that the five
of the FoUom Prison . outlaws visit
ed Pine's ranch - yesterday, and
their camp has been located about
a mile from the ranchman's house.
There . they probably spent last
night. It is judged today that only
five traveled in the party that held
up Pine. This gang is designated
as the Webber Creek party, but
.where the remaining seven cut
throats are is only conj'ecture.
It is surmised that the other
band is making its way along the
Tuolomne River, which is in an al
most untreaded district. If this is
so, Nevada is their object point,
thiough Hope Valley." It is believ
that'the desperadoes mnst surely
be captured if large enongh posses
can be induced to follow them, as
the country is so sparsely settled
that the convicts must appear in
order to get food.
It is the purpose of Sheriff Bos
quit to station sentries about form-
bouses in the country ahead of
where the outlaws are- supposed to
be, in order that when they ap
proach a house they can be readily
surrounded.
San Francisco; Aug.. 5.' James
RobertS7one of the 13. convicts who
escaped from Folsom prison",' "was
captured today ,'. near - Davisville,
about 35 miles from Folsom. It is
thought that Roberts . was accom
panied by Convict Howard, and a
detail of officers is now searching
for Howard between Davisville and
Sacramento. ;;
Of the : many 'reports that have
drifted in today regarding the pur
suit of the remaining convicts in
the neighborhood of Placerville, the
most promising is the discovery at
Shingle Springs, that Case and one
more of the fugitives were in that
vicinity Monday night. .
A telephone message was received
from Lotus tonight that today's
work of the pots a in that neighbor
hood had been fruitless. . .
St. Louis, f Aug. 5. One of - the
heaviest storms of the year, but of
brief duration, swept over St. Louis
at 3 o'clock today, being preceded
by a wind that in the western por
tion of the city developed into min
iature twister that tore through the
World's Fair Grounds, killing one
man, probably fatally injuring a-
Dotber, and severely iDjurmg seven
otherf, besides causing damage to
the World's Fair buildings and oth
er property' generally- throughout
the city to the extent of $10,000.
The greatest fury of the Storm, was
felt at the W01 Id's " Fair grounds,
- The - day had been extremely
warm, the temperature registering
94 degrees. Suddenly the sky be
gan growing dark, and within a
comparatively short time it became
necessary to retort to artificial lights
in the stores.
Soon after, the storm broke with
th a force of a gale. Pedestrians
hurried for shelter, and the wind
swept through the streets, causing
a little damage here and there by
broken windows, falling signs and
shade trees.

Boston, July 28. At Massachu
setts Homoeopathic hospital a wo
man's sight has been preserved by
grafting "with the ekin of a frog.
The flesh around the eye had be-,
come bruised and the skin became
affected. Both to save the eye
sight itself and to prevent the eye
socket from having a pale appear
ance the graft had to be made. One
of the ablest surgeons of the hos
pital says frog ekm was used be
cause no human skin was . availa
ble. :; . . -
The patient has fully recovered
and now. moves in Boston's best so
ciety, a handsome, fine-looking per
son. - '
No one but the surgeon who per
formed the operation knows that
the skin around the eye is frog skin.
The Datura! ekin and the frog graft
have coalesced, so as to be indis
tinguishable the one from the other,
New York, Aug. 5. A fight to
the death between a Burmah bull
and an eighteen-foot python took
place at Far Kockaway yesterday
afternoon . Not until . the lower
part of the serpent's-body was torn
terribly did it remove its fangs and
release the bull from its coils.
In the combat Mile. Van, a snake
charmer, had her arm lacerated by
the serpent's fangs. The wound
was cauterized by Dr. E. S. Parker,
of Grand View avenue, Far Rocka
way. . ,.. '
The fight occurred in a side-show
of Welsh Brothers' circus. Both
bull and snake are natives of East
India. When the charmer raised
the snake from its cage, it sighted
the bull and -wriggled from her
hands. ; Children screamed and
women, fainted when the snake
struck the ground. It sprang for
the bull and partly coiled around
him just below bis hump. As if
experienced in fighting reptiles, the
bull lay on his side and ripped his
horns under the snake's body. ;
Mile. Van tried to remove the
snake, but it stuck its fangs in her
left arm. She diopped to the
ground and fainted. She was re
suscitated by Dr. Parker.
The bull sank his horns into the
reptile, brought his head forward
and tore the snake's body for a feot.
The serpent gradually released its
hold. Ten minutes afterward it
was dead. v .
