only of dlssapoiiitment but even
of derision,
Rome Is becoming extremely im
patient over the delay In the selec
tion of the new pope, concerning
which there appears to be no defi
nite explanation, owing to the rigid
secrecy with which the proceedings
within the conclave are being
guarded, Today practically the
only news that came from the Sis
tine Chapel was that of the extreme
ly grave illness of Cardinal Herrero.
It is presumed, however, that the
other aged cardinals are also suf
fering Irom their prolonged incar
ceration and the intense heat,

John Brttutl n the Sweepstakes,

The North Fairview mid the
Utopian are in active state of devel-
op-neut and each is piling up splen
did ore.
Reports from Mr. Shane's camp
are flattering. It has long been
known that Mr. Shane has some
excellent property.
The latest strike is reported from
Jackass Ritlge. Al Churchill is
the lucky man. He is said to have
broken into n very rich sliute of
free milling ore.
Advices from the Vesuvius are
to the effect that work is now well
under way, and at the end of every
day's work brings' forth most en
couraging results.
