XUN CELEBRATES MOST
VNl'SCAL ANNIVERSARY
Cistercian Sister, Who Has Been In
valid for Fifty Years, Specially Re
membered, by Italian Clergy.
Rome. The past month, which
closed the celebration of the fiftieth
anniversary of Italian independence,
witnes-ed a'.so anotKer golden jubilee
celebrat'on of a vastly different char
acter. This was the celebration in
the Cistercian convent at Vlterbo of
the fiftieth anniversary of the day
on which a sister of that order was
stricken with paralysis a sister
who;e name is not even known to the
public, but whose reputation is so
great and so world-wide that on the
occasion of her recent sad Jubilee year,
Pope Pius himself sent her an auto
graph letter. Other letters were re
ceived from some of the highest car
dinals in the Catholic church, while
gifts and remembrances poured into
her nun's cell from a'.l over the civil
ized world.
All that !s allowed to become known
by the Bisters of the Cistercian order
of this remarkable woman Is that
about fifty-two years ago she was a
young European operatic singer of
remarkable promise. Accompanied
by her mother. In 1859. she left her
native city of Zurich, Switzerland, for
Milan, where she was to fill an oper
atic engagement. Hardly had the two
reached the Italian city when the
mother died suddenly.
This loss made such a deep Im
pression upon the young artist that
she resolved to give up her operatic
career, which was then of the highest
promise, and enter the Clsterian sis
ters' convent at Viterbo. Within a
year and a half after taking the vows
she was stricken with a terrible and
incurable spinal malady and it was the
fiftieth anniversary of the day on
wh'ch this affliction came that she
has Just celebrated.
During these fifty years the nun
has beep kept in exactly the same po
sition by bndages and a wire frame
work, as the doctors are agreed that
even a slight movement of the spinal
column might endanger her life. Al
though she has at all times suffered
intense pain, no murmur of complaint
has ever been known to cross her
lips. It is th's fortitude that has
made her famous all over the world.
During her fifty years of affliction
the Inhabitants of Viterbo came first
to appreciate her great sanctity and
then to attribute to her marvelous and
miraculous gifts gifts of divination,
prophesy and cure. From the people
of Viterbo, her fame spread all over
the province, then over &'. Italy and
finally over a goodly part of the civ
il zed world, until her invalid's cell
has now become a shrine visited by
the high and lo walike for spiritual
comfort, spiritual guidance and for
the spiritual cure of various afflic
tions. In th's ce'.l Cardinal Cassetta, one
of the most powerful princes of the
Catholic church, has celebrated mass,
while other dignitaries and priests by
the scores and hundreds have paid
similar homage. The sister always
converses freely with her many call
ers. Her miraculous works have attract
ed so much attention from the highest
dignitaries of the Catholic church,
even up to the pope himself, that it
is considered certain that after death
and after the proper time provlaed by
the rulers of the Catholic church shall
have elapsed she will be canonized
as a saint.
In the letter which Pope Pius X
sent to her on the occasion of her re
cent golden jubilee a jubilee that
was in fact golden only in name he
expressed the warmest admiration for
the example of Christian fortitude and
resignation which she has given to all
the faithful.
In speaking of the celebration, the
Corrlere Delia Sera, the most fa
mous Journal of Italy, said:
"Xot a few extraordinary facts are
related of this poor nun, and it Is
certain that many strangers who
come to Rome take occasion to visit
her in Viterbo in order to be able
to converse with her and to com
mend themselves to her prayers. The
old convent already has become a
santuary and the sister, who Is now
over 75 years of age, continues to
give proof of really extraordinary in
tuition."

on the'r honeymoon. There they de
cided to drive in an open buggy to
Colorado, making a five-days' Journey
across the Mountains. On their sec
ond day out they became lost, and
for eight days wandered about in the
blinding snow in an effort to find a
town or ranch house.
Haggard and partly frozen, the cou
ple reached Meeker, Colo., where they
remained until last night, when they
resumed their journey eastward.
While going through their trying
ordeal in the blizzard, Mr. Hadden
according to his statement, would
have given up the struggle had not

BABE IS SECURITY FOR A DEBT.

South Bend, Ind. A two-year-old
baby appeared sufficient security at
first sight for a debt of 93 cents but
later a demand for a cash substitute
for the security brought the debtor
and creditor into court, according to
a story t MJ a judge in the city court.
John L'rban, explaining why he
became involved in the brawl with
Mrs. Rose Shearer, said he owed her
the 93 ceuts. She held his baby for
it. Later when he went to make a
two-cent purchase from her and ten
dered a Jl bill, he said she kept the
bill and told him' to take h's baby.
This, he said, enraged him and he
tried to stab her.

TWO TRE TIES POSSIBLE.
Ru.ss'.an Jowl li Sia nation to Bo In One
Covenant.
Washington. That two treaties
with Russia will take the place of the
treaty of 1832, just abrogated by
President Taft, is probable, in the
personal views expressed by officials
of the state department.
One treaty would deal entirely with
matters of trade ana commerce, and
the operation of its favored nation
clause. If one vere embodied, would
be confined to hese subjects.
The other t lty would relate
purely to matters of citizenship and
naturalization, which, of course, would
involve some treatment of the Jewish
question. The adoption of th:s course
may be suggested by the Russian
government.
The introduction In the Duma of
the bill attacking export trade with
Russia is not regarded with much
concern in official circles here.
Even If the measure should be
adopted by the Duma, it would re
quire the approval of the imperial
council and of the emperor himself
to become law, and could not take ef
fect before January 1 1913. because
of the continuance until that date of
the present treaty with Its favored
nation clause.
Negotiations for a new treaty prob
ably will not be undertaken seriously
before September. Meanwhile the
Rua'an general elections will have
been held as will the great American
quadrennial political conventions. Re
moved from all likelihood of political
influence in either country, it is felt
that negotiations then can be con
ducted in a calm and judicial manner.
. The movement in Russia to boycott
American machinery Is growing. The
state department was advised today
that members of the council at Mos
cow and Kursk have' petitioned the
Duma to act?.

mat tpion Sinclair had encouraged
h"s attentions to Mrs. Sincla'r and
that no love had existed between the
socialist and his wife, Harry Kemp,
the Kansas poet, in an Interview at
the bungalow where he and Mrs. Sin
clair have recently made their home,
exp ained his unusual views of ' the
marr'age relation which were echoed
by Mrs. S nclalr herself.
"There is no reason why I should
not explain the fact that u flra liv

"I am not afraid or ashamed of it.
"And I would be a cur and a ten

one of the squarest little women in the
world.
"There Is far greater reason for
Meta S nclair and me to live as we
are living In defiance of-the conven

eyes of the law as the wife of Upton
Sinclair whom she divorced three
years ago in every sense of the word,
though not in law.
"We intend living together as we
are now unt;i the end of time. If we
find that our mutual love and inter

how long that may be?
"But no laws of marriage or mar
riage ties could keep u apart!
"The decision that binds the Sln
clairs In law has convinced me of the
necessity of a more strict monogamy."
It was only when Mrs. Sincla'r
spoke of her little son David that she
showed any worry or sadness
"I am afraid that Upton will get a
divorce and want the boy," she said,
"and he should be with me."
