An eloquent tribute to the late Dr. S. R.. Jenkins, was paid by the Hon. J. D. Stewart, leader of the Conserva- tive pa-'rty in this Province, at the public meeting in the Strand Theatre last night. Mr. Stewart, said he em- braced this opportunity of pmniioly paying a last tribute of respect and esteem "to that man who today all Prime Edward Island mourns."

"We in this Province," he continued,

“are proud of our many illustrious sons, and we are justly proud. Our honour roll is long and it is brilliantly emblazoned. Bun on that honour roll I feel that no name will shine with greater cffulgence than the name of that beloved physician whose magic toudh relieved and healed many suf- fering ' souls,-that perfect citizen who always strove for the uplift of thecommunityin which he lived, that

PARIS, Sept. l'l-The Vatican's

fortun, was estimated at $110,000,000 today by Philippe ’mrati, former Italian deputy and chief of the an- ti-Fasclsts in Paris. Commenting on information published by the Fin- ancial Times rcmarking on the Vati- ‘ can's fortune Turati said: “It is per-' fectly exact that for signature of the Latersn treaty the Pope received 750,000,000 lire cash and 1,000,000,000 in five percent bonds of the Italian consolidated debt. The money re-. ceived amounts to about l.000,000.I which, added to the value of the Vatican fortune assessed at $30,000,- 000. makes the entire fortune silo.-_ 000,000.

“The Pops has entirely reorganized ine ssministrsiios 'ef his finances and has called in as official treas- urer Barnardo Nogara. who at the same time is minister of finance and Vatican banker."

“The Vatican recently bought B5.-

“The lou to our Province, to our

Our late friend belonged to a family whose public service to the country and party for generations have been splendid. Butthe late Dr. Jenkins was not a Conservative aim- piy because hewaebornso.He was a Conservative because he found within that great party the atmosphere which was most conducive to the advancement of his patriotic activi- ties.

"I shall not pursue further the re-

Dr. Jenkins is gone, but the memory of this many acts of charity gnd mercy, the memory of his splendid life, will be an example to future genera- tions.
