Pope Pius X, pontiff and temporal head of the Roman Catholic church, stricken with years and grief at the folly of nations, is no more. J . . . Czar. kaiser, king, and president outrage heaven with im- portunities for the success of their arm s—“for Christ, and for the Fatherland.” Proud and power maddened they seek the divine sanction of murder. On the lip s of the aged and wearied prelate who died in Rome, with his latest breath, was a petition for peace. With the knowledge that death was inevitable he said: ‘‘The Almighty, in His inexhaustable goodness, wishes to spare me the horrors that Europe is undergoing.” The Christian world, laying aside creed and doctrinal pre- judice, may well unite in mourning one whose foremost doctrine was charity, and whose life was a record of good works. Nor, had he lived longer, would the intercession of the pontiff have been without weight in the ultimate arrangem ent af arbitration. , , Bigots of free th o u g h t-fo r there are such phenom ena- may berate his clay and memory, but the warm and generous intellect of the world will render a tribute of respect and affect- ion to the living name of Pius X.

At th e approach be- neath the bridge trestle on the road, Mr. Geer, who was driving a heavily laden wagon, saw th e approach of train 14 and h urried beneath.
