It is the Pope's own railroad on whihc he can travel to the outside world and on which visiting cardinals or heads of state or papal representatives can enter the Vatican City. Only 600 feet long, it has double tracks, several switches and a big railroad station that would do justice to a railroad 600 miles long... A' hun- dred or more workmen have been busy since last April constructing the "line" in back of St. Peter's. They have dug a 300-foot tunnel into the Vatican Hill, 1t will be used as the "yard" of the railroad, and in it locomotice and cars, in- cluding the Pope's special train, will be kept and trains made up. The difference in level between the southern side of Vatican City, where the railroad begins, and the part of Rome that touches on Vatican City has necessitated construction of a bridge connecting the Vatican .ail- rcad with the Italian state railroad. A section of the wall of the papal city was demolished, The bridge is| 720 feet long--in fact, longer than the Vatican railroad itself. Some of | its arches are 35 feet high. | A beautiful poli-centric | been built at the spot where the railroad enters Vatican City, It cars rics two gates of iron and bronze The station, for its size, is one of the most sumptuous and beautiful in the world. It is built in travertine stone of a soft rose color. It is 180 feet long and has a central hall 0 | feet long, which will be 5 salone d'onore," or recept r au- | gust visitors. The station will no ol be called upon t3 handle much pas enger traffic The railroad is not carry ord mary ly the Pope himself, to toreign countries, visiting als, bishops, nuncios, heads of kings, princes and members arch has | destined to but merc- | muncios cardin- states | of royal passengers, papal families. {n The road will do a modest freight | business, as. foodstuffs and merch an- | dise will come into Vatican Cit | rectly. In accordance with the His 2} eran treaties no duty wil { paid on these goods, A great effort has been made prevent the modern garishness of a railroad conflicting with the archi- tectual treasures of Vatican City, softened by cénturies, The Vatican Hill, Il have to be t ) into which the | unusual. tunnel has penetrated, has been or- namented with fountains, and lands- cape architects have turned it into a garden spot. The new papal train of Pius XI will be a thing of magnificence and color not yet chronicled in the his- tory of railroads. Soon after the Vatican City railroads goes into op- _| eration, the papal train, finest in the world, will be ready for operation, too. It is not likely that the train will have a very extended use tinless the Pope should decide to make the of- ten projected trip outside the Vati- can City, to Northern Italy, perhaps, this summer when the heat of Rome is wearing upon him. It will not only mark a new para- graph in the story of special train construction, but will add another footnote to the story of the papacy, for this will be the first time since 1870 that a Pope shall have ridden in a train. The papal train in which Pius 1X until the time when Victor Emanuel II tool. away the temporal power of the Pope, and the Pontiff became a prisoner in the Vatican, is now on view in a Rome Museum. Bespite its elaborate decorations, it is a far cry from the sumptuous new train, Like Pius IX's train Pius XI's will consist of three coaches, one for the papal throne, another" containing a little chapel, and the third a private coach, wherein the Pontiff may dine and sleep. There will be several other coaches for members of the Pope's household, for Swiss guards, papal gendarmes or noble guards, All coaches will be of steel, paint- ed dark red. Each one will carry the pontifical coat of arms in bronze. The internal walls' will be ornamented with red damask. This will bring out the decorations in gold on the ceil- mg, in the middle of which will be a pontifical tiara" with the keys of Peter. Designers of the train have devot- ed special care to the throne coach, for here the Pope will hold his re- ceptions, Consequently, every inch of space has had to be utilized. The throne and other furnishing will be of mahogany. The chapel-coach will be a true gem of special construction. It will rry a complete altar, of course, cases - a large variety of pon- | tific al vestments. Over the altar will be a valuable painting from the Vati- can collection, not yet selected. The hag z:h will be decorated bv a mally known Italian artist, personal coach of the Pope a most modern and original designed to surpass the per- will be effort, | sonal coach of King Victor Emanuel, constructed last year in time to bring King Albert of Belgium to Rome with his daughter, Princess Marie- Jose, who carried Crown Prince | Humbert, At coaches the same time, other special will be ocnstructed to acco- cardinals of the Curia on through Italy, or papal on their visits to foreign odate journeys nunc countries, 108 HONOR SHIPS' SOULS Osaka, Japan, Jan. 13--A Buddhist ceremony was held here for the souls of ships being broken up for junk, but to the Japanese it was nothing When animals are slaugh- tered to be eaten there are rites, and the makers of the Japanese banjo regularly hold services for the spirits of the cats that provide the strings, ------------ Strasbourg, which before the World War was an inconspicuous German city, is now one of the leading ports of France, handling nearly 5,000,000 tons of freight in the last twelve months, John.
