A\ hen Holy Father Appeared.
Rome Letter In New York Sun.
Yesterday was a great day. To begin
wirh. it was Easter, which is something
everywhere, but a good deal more in
Kom<. Also, there wasn't a cloud in the
fc k>. After it has rained—in sunny Italy—
for forty days anti forty nights, as it has
t i,ls spring, a .cloudless sky gives one a
n w 1- ase of life. Finally, and best of all,
v, saw the Pope.
To >ee the Pope is the open or secret
w of evr ry visitor to Rome. Creeds cut
n figure in the matter. Protestants seem
to be as eager as the most devout Cath
olivs. Many a good orthodox contributor
to missionary work in Roman Catholic
countries has planked down $lO or even
S.O to take himself and his wife into the
Vatican just for a good square look at
j.pj XIII. Some good Catholics have
c i-erfully paid their own money for the
same purpose, but as a rule the Catholics
secure this privilege in a less aues
ii liable, as well as less expensive, man
ner.
There are two ways open to an Ameri
can who wants to see the Pope. He can
try to secure from the rector of the Amer
ican College in Rome a letter of recom
mendation to the maestro di camera of his
holiness and take his chances of getting
from the latter a ticket of admission to
a general audience. Or he can buy from
hi- hotel porter, if the latter has one, a
ticket wnich has been obtained in some
mysterious way and whFh ranges in
prior from $3 to $lO. according toXLe de
mand This sale of tickets has become so
g, oral this year that there is a good deal
of scant a! about it. Nobody seems to
know exactly where the supply comes
from. Some of them are undoubtedly
c umerf* it. Others are confiscated by the
p riers. For instance, tickets are delivered
at the hot- Is by one of the papal messen
gers. An unscrupulous porter does not
hesitate, after agreeing to deliver them
t the persons for whom they were in
tended, to appropriate them to his own
u.-c and perhaps sells to people, at a good
round figure, the very tickets which had
b -n sent to them. There are no names
on most cf the tickets and this simplifies
the trade.
Others say that a good many tickets
are issued to the convents, which then
sell some and get quite a little revenue
fr >m the sale. At any rate, the men
of authority in the Church profess to
be highly scandalized by the business and
would like to put it down, but they do
n< i seem to be meeting with success.
The other avenue of access <to the Pope
is pretty effectually barred against the
ordinary applicant, above all, if he Is a
Protestant. Mgr. O’Connell, the rector
of fhe college, Is a most agreeable man,
who would doubtless be glad to gratify
all his countrymen with a slgh< of the
Pope. But when they come by the thou
sand h'.s power of saying “no” gets all
the exercise It needs. Every Monday
end every Wednesday morning the Mon
signor receives visitors, and for three
h<*urn there is a constant kicking of heels
in the tiled waiting roooras and a steady
procession through his drawing room.
Downstairs, when the impatient feet beat
a nervous tatoo on the tiles, people ex
change confidences as to the “pull” they
mean to exert to secure tickets. Some
have letters from the consul, one or two
have a note from the ambassador and
rre inclined to be snippy to the rest, three
tv men, whose gow r ns and grammar are
* ally incorrect for the occasion, have
Tutors from archbishops. Later they
h tve their revenge on the haughty ones
who fancy that an ambassador counts for
more than an archbishop. Just now they
are meditative and one of them says from
the depths of her brown study:
‘lf he is nice to u,” meaning Mgr.
O’Connell, “I’ll invite him to dinner.”
When the people get upstairs and face
to face with the rector in his scarlet
e'jred gown and his silver-buckled slip
pers, they make their little pleas with
pathetic eagerness. One woman says,
with Italics all through her remark®:
I came to see if by any possibility
you could help me to get a ticket to see
<ho Pope.”
“I’m very sorry, madam, but It Is very
r *&rly impossible. Have you any letters
to me?”
"No but I come from the strong city of
Philadelphia.”
"Are you a Catholic?”
“No but my grandfather—the priests
wf-r- very fond of him.
But the poor lady’s popular grandfather,
r- • n combined with the strength of Phila
•b;,h!a. failed to pull her through. An
other one had better luck. She came with
out letters because, as she said, the trip
was unpremeditated. Monsignor made the
-me protest that he had made to the rest.
Then he said:
Arp you n Catholic?”
“V<s, a convert.”
"Oh. then p- rhaps I can do something
for von.” And he gave her the letter to
the maestro di camera.
Afo>r the procession had ended, he sigh
ed v. rirJlv and said that he had received
far this season at least 10,000 appllca
-0 r- in writing for tickets, in addition to
the semi-weekly personal invasion of vis
itors.
"Apparently every American who comes
to Rome wants to see the Pope,” h© said,
"hui T wish you could impress it on peo
ple that it is useless, as a rule, for them
to come to me unprovided with letters.
As the number of tickets is limited, more
ov *r. it ip but right that Catholics should
b- considered first. That is only fair,
though I would gladly give tickets to all
who come, provided they come in a re
spectful spirit.”
After one has received the coveted let
ter of recommendation from Mgr. O’Con
nell It must be taken to the Vatican and
with the maestro dl camera. If he
•'■ends the tickets for an audience they will
ennu* the day before the event Is to take
plnco. Yesterday's audience was an*

the portico of St. Peter’s. Before we
r nuid really reach the audience chamber
Wf * had to run the gauntlet of guards and
Jngpectors galore. First, at the great
bronzy doors which form the public en

passed, a temporary cloak where
wraps were left and where women who
had neglected to provide themselves with
black veils could leave their hats. A good
many were so anxious to get to the front
that they neglected this opportunity and
later appeared startlingly brilliant in the
audience chamber.
The crowd packed itself against a bar
rier placed across the nail and there grew
and grew' until very nearly 11 o’clock,
when there must have been almost a
thousand men and women waiting. An
other detachment of guards, with tall hal
berds, came then to the support of two
young men in evening clothes, w’ho were
to regulate our entry. One of the young
men mounted the rail and harangued the
orow’d on the necessity of going slowly
and not pushing, then they opened a small
gate in the barrier and the whole thous
and tried to get through it at once.
“Piano! Piano!” cried the tw r o young men
In distress.
“Piano! Piano!” they protested, potting
the air with their hands as if they could
soothe the crowd that way.
The people were let in by Installments
and were passed on from doorway to door
way, each guarded by soldiers and inspec
tors to whom, each ticket had to be shown.
In the ante-chamber to the audience hall
a place was screened off and marked
“Sanitary Assistance.” It was a wise
precaution, for three persons in our im
mediate vicinity were taken out before
the audience began. Strangely enough,
they were all men, which seemed rather
an infringement on woman's time-honored
prerogative of fainting.
The crowd 'was interesting; and that
was lucky,, for we had to w r ait almost in
hour and a half for the Pope’s arrival.
There were Hermans and French, English,
Irish, Americans, Moravians, some
strangely garbed Abyssinia ns. and at least
one young man from Hungary. We knew
this, bocause he was one of those carried
out and there was great sympathy ex
pressed for him because it was whispered
about that he was “hungry.” There were
shaven monks and a sprinkling of priests
and nuns. One of the latter gave a bottle
of smelling salts to the fainting young
man, who promptly drank them, causing
himself much internal inconvenience and
prolonging the discussion as to whether
he was Teally hungry or only from Hun
gary. There were two Irish ladies who had
come all the way from I>ublin and who
were ready to cry because they had for
gotten their rosaries, which they wanted
to have blessed by the Holy Father. One
of them had brought a camp stool, which
she regarded with a malevolent eye be
cause it wasn’t a rosary.
“As if it needed blessing!” she remark
ed. Then she caught eight of a woman
who had at least twenty rosaries over her
arm. The poor Irish lady felt that she
was in a land where ony a strange, for
eign lingo was spoken, so she made signs
and queer interrogative noises to the wo
man, who replied in a feeble attempt et
French. But that did not prevent their
finding out that English was their com
mon tongue, ami the woman who was
rich In rosaries gave two to the Irish
couple, and their faces were glorified.
“I had me prayer book,” Paid one of
them, "an 1 I asked me sister if she thought
the blesein’ could be made to extend, but
she thought not.”
Almost everybody had a packsge of to-
Rnrles,crucifixes,pictures, prayer books and
other religious articles. You could spot the
Germane every time, because they carry
thtso thirfgs in brown paper parcels, just
as they had come from the shop. Two
American girla stood rear us; one In hat
and street gown, the other in bright blue
skirl and a w hite waist, which she seemed
to have vainly endeavored to cover over
with a long black face veil which she wor-*
on her head. Of course they were gig
gling.
"I’d give 30 cents for your picture,” Bald
the one with the hat.
One of them had gone to St. Peter’s yes
terday morning for the Easter pervice,
paying 33 for a ticket to one of Ihe trib
unes to hear the music. In the meantime
the other ono discovered that the hotel
porter had tickets for the audience. She
seized upon them at 310 apiece, borrowed
somebody's old face veil and rushed off to
St. Peter’s for her friend. The friend, in
gorgeous Easter hat and bright blue gown,
was waiting for the music to begin when
she was apprised of the new S2O invest
ment. She abandoned her $3 sent, stowed
her hat away In the cloak room, draped
the old veil about her head and shoulders
and awaited the Pope.
At last he came. It was all different
then. The people who had be?n looking
faint and white braced up, and their
cheeks flushed and their eyes shone. The
American girls stopped giggling. The Irish
ladies climbed painfully onto the camp
stool and held up their rosaries, and their
hands trembled as they did It. The young
man from Hungary, who had come back
looking very white and 111, cheered with
the rest. That first cheer was something
not to be easily forgotten. At first the
crowd could not see anything except the
long, velvet-covered poles on which the
papal chair Is carried. These were bought
In from the corridor outside because the
chair was carried through a turn too short
to permit of the use of these long polei.
The Pope walked up the steps lo the audi
ence chamber, as he does not trust hlm
slf to be carried up or down stairs in the
gestatorial choir. At the entrance the poles
were put In place and then he took his
seat In the chair.
Up to this time nobody could see him
except the people Immediately around the
door. Everybody knew he was coming,
however, and every neck was stretched
for the first glimpse of him. It came
when bis bearers lifted the chair to their
shoulders. As It went up there went up
with it a shout which was like a roar and
which seemed to have been a very part
of the lifting of the chair. Then came
u scene of wild enthusiasm. The Her
mans near us shouted “Hoch! hoch!
hoch!” The French called "Vive le
Pape!” The Italians shouted "Vivat!" or
something that sounded like It. It was
a medley of cheers. The air broke, not
into "a mist,” but into a hail with them.
Women shook their handkerchlvfH in the
air and men waved their hats. Some of
the women cried, not hysterically, but
quietly, as If they were realizing u life
THE MOKNING NEWS: TUESDAY, MAY 15,1900.
long desire and were crying out of deep
down gladness.
And the Pope? Whether one was a
Protestant or a Catholic, one could not
help a thrill of emotion at the sight of
him. His white figure stood out against
the red chair and his face was as clear
cut as a cameo, with the prominent nose
and under lip accentuating it powerfully.
Bending to right and left, he made the
sign of the cross with the outstretched
first and second fingers of his right hand,
doing it slowly and gently, with a be
nevolent smile always on his lips. After
the bearers had carried him a few yards,
he put his hand's on the arms of the chair
and raised himself to a half-standing po
sition, at which the cheers swelled of a
sudden into another roar, which swept
down the hall and fell and rose again as
the Pope, still standing, with his left
hand resting on the arm of his chair,
bleseed the people with his right hand.
The hall Is a long one, but the cheers
did not cease for an instant during the
slow progress of the bearers. In front of
the altar, the chair was set down and
the Pope knelt on the steps, accompanied
by the officiating priests. Tw-elve men in
red livery had carried the chair and ten
of the noble guards, in dark uniforms and
brass helmets, had walked beside 14. These
ten soldiers took their places on the altar
steps, five on each side. At the bottom
of the steps stood a dozen of the Swiss
guards in full uniform. Other officials,
in white ruffs, great silver chains and
brilliant decora*ions completed as strange
a group as could be found anywhere now
adays at the foot of an altar.
The music was lovely, but It was greetel
with no absolute hush like that which fell
over the audience when the Pope rose
from his knees, wont up the altar steps
and chanted the litany In front of the al
tar. At first a murmur of amazement
went around the hall, hl voice was so
clear and strong. Then there was
plete silence. But It was even more im
pressive to see him than to hear him, foT
Instead of chanting rather mechanically,
as officiating priests so often do,he seemed
to put his whole soul into it; so much so,
that his thin white figure was shaken by
it. When he‘spread his arms out in wh at
Is often a perfunctory gesture of invoca
tion the movement was almost dramatic in
its Intensity. He lifted his arms as high
as he could stretch them ar.d his whole
body straightened up so that he seemed
at least several inches taller. As he eank
back again it was a great a reaction ns
if he had suddenly stooped.
Then he turned and faced the people and
many of them dropped down on their
knees, in spite of the crush, as with a slow
sweep of his arm he solemnly blessed them.
Perhaps some of the Germans knelt, but
most Of them r* maim'd standing and
stuck their brown paper parcels up above
the heads of the crowd. Those brown pa
per jkarcels waving aloft between us and
the figure of the Pope were almost like tha
ridiculous getting in the way of the sub
lime.
After the benediction, the Holy Father
was seated In a chair placed on the plat
form in front of the altar and certain priv
ileged persons were presented to him. They
knelt and kissed his ring and he spoke to
them with grout apparent Interest and be
nevolence. Then perhaps fifty or sixty
men and women belonging to a pilgrimage,
knelt and kissed his hand—or rather, his
ring—ln turn. After he again took his
seat in the gestatorial chair, and the
scene of enthusiasm which greeted his en
trance wae repeated. This time he stood
up several times and each time he lifted
himself he lifted at the same time the
voices of the crowd,so that the swelling of
the shout seemed a part of his movement.
When he was set down at the entrance,
out of sight of the crowd. It was almost as
If a shadow had fallen on the hall. There
are few people with a more interesting
personality than that of Reo XIII, but that
alone does not make it so well worth
while to see him. A private audience
would have its own advantages, especially
for a Catholic. But Protestants should see
the Pope when they can feel what he
means to the hundreds of men and wom-n
beside them. Under those circumstances a
glimpse of the Pope, will be o revelation.

tGood tiOKfteepi is 0 Science,
and (tweeplng as a part of this system
of good housekeeping must be properly
done. A carpet sweeper does not sweep
clean It simply eklma over the surface
of the carpet and collects lint and bits
of thread; but does not permeate the nap.
Antiseptic Hrooms, on account of their
scientific construction, sweep not only
clean, but chemically clean, and they do
this without any extra effort on your
part. For this reason the most Ignorant
servant can use them and secure the
best 'results. All good housekeepers buy
Antiseptic Brooms. Order one to-day.
