While he does not want anyone Constantly in the room. the Pope rings frequently for trivial causes. thus showing beyond doubt his desire for companionship. He takes“ very 'frequentiy sips of meat broth, al- ternated with a half spoonful of chick- en gelatine. His urine continues scarce- amounting in the last twenty-four hours to thirty-six cubic centimetres. - When asleep the Pontffl appears to be dead. His checks are sunken. his eyes are hollow, and his laws are ex- ceptionally prominent, the skin being tightly drawn over the bones. When awdke the Pope usually appears to re- tain lifelonly In his brilliant black eyes. though he recovered the lucidity of his mind this 'morning. and gave fresh proof of his wonderful memory, saying: “Today is the fete of St. Leo. I have never failed to assist at Mass, since. when almost a boy. I came to Rome to participate In the jubilee of Leo XIII. I wish to hear Mass today." The Pontiff's desire was immediate- Iy gratified by Mgr. Manolinl celebrat- ing Mass, as he did yesterday. In the chapel adjoining the sick room. After the visit of the doctors the Pope said he could not stay in bed, as It made him restless. His limbs were uncomfortable and be felt pains all over his body. Therefore he wished to go back to his arm chair. No opposi- tion was made as the doctors think that nothing can now do the Pope much harm. But. to the Pontiff's as- tonishment. he found he could not dress himself. as he did some days ago or walk to his chair so his ever- watchful valet. Pio Centra assisted by Seneca. another valet clothed the Pope and almost carried him to the arm- chair. the Pontiff frequently thanking his faithful servants and remarking that they must be verv tired. The Pope understands the gravity of his condition. and says he is ready to die: but he'doea not realize the Im- minence of his danger. as again deals onstrated when his confessor. Mgr. Pif- feri. asked to see him. The Pontiff. on being informed of the monsignor’s re- quest replied somewhat petulantly: “Not now. Tell him I shall not die without calling for him." The doctors really think tuat. unless a. complication arises. the Pope may live for days. and even weeks longer. WASHINGTON.

NEW YORK, July 17. from steamer Erin. via Deli‘orest Wireless.-—It was almost calm at Sandy Hook at 10 a. in today. when Sir Thomas Lipton's twin racers left the Horseshoe in tow of the tug Cruiser for their daily spin off Sandy Hook Lightship. Weather sharps on the Erin predicted that the gentle air from the west would give place to a cool sailing breeze from the south, later. Not a breath of wind was moving and the surface of the sea was like glass when the Shamrocks passed out Gedney Channel. It was decided to send me yachts fifteen miles south. a beat to windward and back to the Lightship. thirty miles around. The Shamrocks-were dropped by the tug and began to jockey about for the start from a line between the lightship and the Erin. A gentle south wind of three knots met the racers at Sandy Hook Lightship. giving promise of a fine racing b.leese I.afer The official time of the start was: Shamrock I.:-—11 35: 19.

The following will be of interest. to sliipowuers and masters. The matter it treats of‘lias been the subject of considerable inconvenience and trouble 'to vessels engaged in the coasting trade. many of them Maine schooners. The Virginia court of appeals has handed down a decision reversing Judge Martin. of Norfolk, who held to be unconstitutional tire law imposing compulsory pliotage on all coasting sciiooners entering the Virginia capes for ports in that-state. Under the pres. our law, which the highest court of the state upholds, schooners going to Vir- ginia ports from other ports must em- ploy s Virginia pilot. The case decid- ed was waged by New York shipping people who protested against the char- ges of the Virginia pilots. ’iuis deci- sion ls far-reaching and places many thousands of dollars In the pockets of members of the Virginia Pilots“ asso- ciation. The case of the pin: a was fought in the supreme court by .22.}. rd States Senator Daniel B. C. Marshall and Judge D. Tucker Brooks. Robert M. Hughes appeared for the New York shipownors. The case will be carried to the United States supreme court. when it is expected that the New England vessel owners and captains will have sufficient testimony to have e port of Virginia open without the lot. tax, which is claimed to be ncith- r right nor just. The waters of Vir- ginia are the property of the govern ment and it is the object of the vessel owners who send their craft to ports in Virginia to insist that these ports shall be free as regards pilotage as the ports in the northern states. All the counties of sailing vessels of 700 tons and upwards are obliged to pay a Unit- ed States license Into any port. The tax In Virginia Is ten cents a ion. The Virginia vessels do not have to pay, which makes the low class legislation. TO PREVENT RUN ON BANK. .Judpe Hall Grants an Order to Fidelity and Trust Co.. of Stamford. STAMFORD, July lT.—Postcd In a conspicuous position in the banking house of the Fidelity Title and Trust Company today is a copy of an order. granted by Judge Hall, of the Superior Court, enjoining the bank from paying out any of its funds within ninety days or until such time as the court may further order. The order was grant- ed at the request of the directors of .the Fidelity Company. whose affairs were yesterday examined into by the State Banking Commission because of the contraction of thc Fidelity Com- pany with the interstate Trust Cumv puny, now under investigation In New Jersey. Up to this time the bank commission- ers have made no statement. but their final report will be given to the public shortly. The officials of the company today said that the bank had been found by the commissioners to be sol‘ vent and that they' had requested the order of Judge Hall In order to prevant a run on the bank by small depositors. They bone to have matters straighten- ed out in a short time and to have the bank doing business within the time burned in the order. The news of the examination of the bank's affairs by the state commission reached the country districts last night. This morning at the usual hour for the opening of the doors quite a number of the rural depositors were on hand in order to withdraw the r savings. but when they were confronted with the sign they returned to their homes. THE WHISTLING BULLET. Never Dangerous to the Person Who Hears it. “Don't be afraid of a bullet that you have heard whistle." said General Andrew Burt to a Star man at Fort Myer yesterday. "If it sings in your ear rest assured that it will never harm you. In fact. as any old soldier will tell you, you never hear the bul- let that hits you. It is a problem of "windage' as the boys in the army call it. In other words. the bullet which you hear sings has already sp‘ed past you, and the bullet that hit you has biased in the ear of some other fel‘ low. in passing, before it got to you. It is a simple proposition after all. The singing bullet is the atmosphertc vibration which Is created and the re- sistance which the air offers to the progress of the bullet. This cannot be detected by' the car until the bullet has cross the parallel line with the car. It may sail over your head or whiz close to the ground. but if it passed you at all the car will catch the sound of its flight. To the soldier of many music.
