HER FATHER,S COMPANION.

Atlanta, Ca, Sept. 19.-Miss Winnie
Davis, the Daughter of the Confed-
sracy," was born in the Confederate
Executive Mansion at Richmond, Vir-
ginia, in 1868. She was educated prin-
cipally at home, owing to the trouble
surrounding her father and the publ
city which attended all movements of
the Davis family.
Miss Davis attained her majority at
Beauvoir, Mississippi. Here she as
sisted her mother in various ways, and
took her place in the many social func-
tons of the place. She was her faith
er's constant companion. She assisted
him in all his work, and much Of the
information which was required by Mr..
Davis in his writings was secured for
him by his daughter. Her strong char
acter was marked from youth.
She was engaged to Mr.. Wilkerson,
of Syracuse, New York, but shortly af-
ter her fathers death the engagement
was broken off. While no public ex-
planation of the rupture was given out,
it was we'll known it was for the pur.
pose of maintaining her fathers name.
She received the name, Daughter OF
the Confederacy," in 1886, when hen
father made his famous trip through
the South. Mr.. Davis being unable tt
appear, Miss Winnie was brought be-
fore the thousands at the different
points along the route and introduced
as the Daughter of the Confedercy.'

WILL ALGER RESlGNY

Is Mr.. Mckinley preparing to throw
Secretary Alger overheard? Many
persons think SO. Secretary Alger is
the only member of the Cabinet who
was not specially summoned to Wash
ington to participate in the extended
consideration and discussion of the in
structions given to the American Peace
Commissioners previous to their de-
parture for Paris. It is asserted that
this pablo snub was administered to
Algss as a hint hat his resignation of
the War Portfolio would be acceptable
tO tho administration. Another reason
given for not having Alger in Washing
ton Just now is that Mr.. Mckinley
wished the other members Of the cabi-
net to feel free in expressing them
selves about the intended investigation
of the War Department, which would
have been impossible with the Secreta-
ry of War present. Mr.. Mckinley is
said to be fully convinced now that the
Investigation will result in finding AL
ger guilty of some of the gravest
charges that have been made against
! him, and be fully determined to do
nothing to shield AIger. Some say that
he has been brought to this state Of
mind by evidence laid before him by

There is much speculation concern
ing the nature of the instructions given
our pesce commissioners, and the be-
lief is growing that the instructions
were not specific, further than to de-
mand possession of the Island of Lu-
ION, and everything else was left to
be determined by circumstances, after
the commission meets, and there is an
opportunity to learn the attitude of
the Spanish commissioners. In any
event, it is certain that Mr.. Mckinley
does not intend, if he can prevent it,
that the positian of the administration
shall become known until otter the

in the house. Last night, however, a

death came to end the suffering, which
