THRONG HAILS PIUS AS ‘THE CONSOLER' Demonstrations in-Rome In- spired by Signing of Peace- Pact. . By the Assoclated Press. ROME, February 13.—"Pius the Con- goler” was the name given yesterday to Pope Pius XI by a throng of more than 100,000 persons who received from the Pontiff the first open blessing given from the balcony of St. Peter’s in seven years. They had come to catch a glimpse @f their spiritual leader while some 60,000 more crowded the famous basilica for the celebration of the Pontiff's seven-year service as head of the church, the conclusion of the Vati- can’s pact with the government of Italy and. the fiftieth year of the Pope's priesthood. When the Pope, attended by cardinals and chamberlains, appeared on the balcony of St. Peter's the throng first cried “Viva il Papa,” or “Long Live the Pape.” Then some members of the crowd, inspired by the peace pact with the government of King Victor Em- manuel, began shouting “Viva il Papa Consolatore.” The great mass quickly took up the appellation until a steady beat of “con- golatores” could be heard. The new name spread about the streets after- ward, and a few hours later Pius XI was more or less generally known in Rome as “Pius the Consoler.” The royal house of Italy was given a full share of the demonstrations in honor of the signing of the accord. The square before the Quirinal Palace was jammed yesterday afternoon with 8 mass of persons who shouted their Joyalty and would not be satisfled until King Victor Emmanuel had appeared on the balcony with Queen Helena, Secretary Turati of the Fascist party end Prince Boncompagni, governor of Rome, The monarch saluted the crowd repeatedly. Everywhere the papal flag, as well as the Italian flag, was shown on pub- lic and private buildings. The emblem of the Vatican was hoisted over the Chigi Palace, which contains Musso- lini’s office, this being the first time that the papal flag has appeared on a government _building since the fall of the temporal power in 1870. The American College added the Stars and Stripes to the combination of government and church banners. It was the first religious institution in Rome to hoist the Italian flag.

C, LILY LANGTRY FALSELY KNOWN BY PUBLIC, DECLARES BELASCO Famous Beaut_y, Called One of f“Coldest" Women, in Reality Was Warm-Hearted. Tells of Her Trials and Triumphs. BY DAVID BELASCO. (As told to Ad-.}tufie Kerr, 7Anm:mm Press al Writer. NEW YORK, February 13—Lily Langtry lles dead in Monte Carlo—a woman once hailed as the greatest beauty of her day—but a woman whose inner life was a contradiction of the public’s conception of it. She was regarded as one of the cold- est of women; in reality she was one of the most warm-hearted. She was showered with adulation and fame that, to the public’s fancy, meant happiness; but her later years were fraught with sadness. ‘The first time I saw her was when she came to New York to make her American debut under the management of Abbey & Schoefield at the Parke Theater. She had long been the toast of London drawing rooms. She had re- ceived recognition on the English stage and_America was agog over her coming. I'was stage manager of the Madison Square Theater then and I invited her to come and see our double stage—an innovation in those days. We were all dressed in our Tuxedos, with fast-beat- ing hearts under our white shirts, wait- ing for her on the stage when she ar- rived. She was the most exquisite thing I ever saw. Soft wavy chestnut hair knotted in a coil at the base of her neck, eyes of deep dark blue and a beautiful mouth. Her skin was flawless, she needed no cosmetics and she never used any. 1t was her bearing that was her most distinctive quality. She moved like a queen and carried herself with as much grace and distinction. Her dress was simple, as always, but of the richest ma- terial, and she wore few jewels. We showed her about the theater, l'.xra Dry and Pale holding candles high above our heads lest she trip in the dim light, and when the recefltlon was over I escorted her back to her hotel. It was there that I| caught the first glimpse of the fire that was hidden under that seemingly im- passive exterior of hers. Scarcely had we arrived at the hotel when we received word that the Parke Theater, where she expected to make her debut, was on fire. We rushed to the windows, stood there, and watched it burn. I saw Miss Lily, as we always called her, clinch her hands and wipe the tears from her eyes as she saw the theater where she had hoped to achieve a triumph within a few days become a smoking ruin. & “Well,” she said, ““we’ll try again some other way.” In time, she made her debut at an- other theater and naturally she was received with applause and acclaim. But she realized it was a tribute to her beauty and the fame she had already acquired, and she hated it. Therein lay the seed of her first great unhappi- n ENTERPRISE SERIAL BUILDING ASSOCIATION 7th St. & La. Ave. N.

WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 13, 1929. 1 must say this for Lily Langtry— she wanted with all her heart to be a great actress. Her experlence on the stage was no idle excursion for a new adventure, * She had already tasted the richest cream of social success the world could offer. She had come to London a coun- try girl, whom “butter would choke and milk would intokicate,” and, almost over night, and to her own bewilder- ment, she had become the rage of its society. In her simple black evening gown—the only one she possessed—she was invited everywhere, she became a favored companion of, the Prince of Wales and the toast of the drawing rooms. Crowds stood in the streets and thronged the thoroughfares to see her pass. Hats and perfumes and gowns were named for her. Her advent on the stage, then, was the result of a real ambition to become a great actress. The critics held the key to her happiness. If the criticisms were good, she sang with happiness and bubbled over with joy; if there was a her day was clouded and gray. “Bernhardt is not beautiful,” she often said to me, “yet she has the world 2t her feet for her great art.

I helped her all I could; she learned to read her lines with the distinction and intelligence which nature had liberally endowed her; but she never became the actress she wanted to bg. The spotlight of publicity in which che lived was largely responsible for her reputation of coldness. Wherever she went she was the center of all eyes and she schooled herself to a plastic expres- sion, a demeanor that was not natural- ly hers. I have seen her sitting in a room, surrounded by a watchful crowd, ex- tending her hand graciously to be kissed, nodding her head with dignity in recognition of a greeting until they were all gone, then she would jump up from her chair, pick up her skirts, and cry, “Thank God, that's over for a while, Now let's play.” And then would follow an hour of music and laughter and chatter that the watchers of an hour ago woud not have be- lieved possible. She returned to America for a num- ber of theatrical engagements during her career, for she persisted in her stage work, although she never reached the | heights she hoped to attain. Always se was royally and enthusiastically re- ceived, but she lived more and more alone and the latter years were not| happy ones. Her estrangement from her daughter, whom she loved deeply, was largely re- sponsible for her sadness. After her daughter’s marriage a misunderstanding arose and Lily Langtry was cut off from all_contact with her.
