FOR WINNIE DAVIS HALL
Ladies of Athens Are Backing Rep
resentative StOvalTs Bill.

Ladies of Athens Are Backing Rep
resentative StOvalI's Bill.
Athens, Ca, July S.-There is great
interest manifested among the ladies
of this city in the bill that has been in
troduced in the Legislature by Mr.
Stovall of Chatham, to appropriate
Sc 900 with which to complete the
Winnie Davis Memorial Hall, at the
State Normal School This bill was in
troduced in response to a request of
the Daughters of the Confederacy, and
q petition asking that the bill be pass
ed has been presented to the Legis-
lature signed by the committee of the
Georgia Division of the Daughters OF
the Confederacy, of which Mrs. VIII
liam f. Eve of Augusta is the CHAIR
man.
In this petition it is set forth that
the plans for this memorial building,
which is to be used as dormitory Tor
girls at the State Normal School, turn
ed out to be inadquate to the needs
of the institution and that they We're
so changed as to make the building
much larger and to afford greater ac-
commodations for the young women
who attend that school. This change
in the plans of the building increased
the cost from $4,000, the original sum,
$22. 900. for the building complete, OK
elusive of furnishings. In this emer-
gency, the Daughters of the Confeder-
acy ask that the state come to their
help, as the building is solely for the
benefit of one of the best educational
institutions in the state.
The people of Athens are naturally
very much interested in this building,
not merely because it is located here,
but also because of the fact that the
woman who has done more than any
other to make the movement success
is an Athens woman-Miss Mildred
Rutherford. the president of the Geor-
gia Division of the Daughters of the
Confederacy. The Athens people gave
81, 900 towards the fund, and the Laura
Rutherford Chapter of the DAUGHTERS
of the Confederacy has given over ST.
200 towards the fund.
The Winnie Davis Hall has now
reached a practical standstill on &C
count of the lack of funds with which
to complete it, and the appeal to the
Legislature is made in the hope that
the Georgia solons will put up enough
money to enable those who have the
building of the memorial hall in charge,
to proceed at once and complete it by
the opening of the session of the Nor
NAL School next fall.

Prophecies OF ST. MALAcHY.
1t Is Held That They Designate Mgr
GOtti as Next Pope.


1t Is Held That They Designate Mgr.
GOtti Next Pope.
The following is from a recent issue
of the New York Tribune:
If any further credence is to be at
tached to the prophecies made by the
Irish archbishop st. Malachy 500 years
ago, predictions which are said to have
been fulfilled in the case of every other
Pontiff who has occupied the chair
of st. Peters since that time, Cardinal
Girolamo Maria Gotti is destined to
be the next Pope.
st. Malachy did not predict the names
of the Pontiffs, but gave species Of
motto for each. Taking the Popes of
the present century alone, he prophe-
sled the motto "Peregrinus Apostolic
Gus" (Apostolic Pilgrim) for the first
of the number-Pius VI-whose exile
and. wanderings are well recalled and
who died a prisoner of France at
Dion. The motto predicted for the
next Pope was "Aquila Rapax" IRA
pacious Eagle, and Plus VII not only
had a black eagle on his family coat
of arms, but likewise had much to suf-
fer from Emperor Napoleon, who in
stituted the eagle as the emblem of
Imperial France.
Another motto was that of DE Bal
neis Etruriae" (from the baths of
Tuscany. This was applied TO Pope
Gregory XVI, who was Tuscan. For
his successor, st. Malachy prophesied
''Crux de Cruce" (Cross from the
Cross), and there is nN Pontiff in mod
ern ages who has been called on to
face more disaster than Plus TX, who,
after suffering exile and many misfor-
tunes, was finally deprived of the pos
session Of the Eternal City and of his
temporal sovereignty.
'Lumen de Coelo" was predicted by
ST. Malachy for Plus TX. 8 successor.
Now this is the family motto and part

Baltimore, Md. July 6.-In speaking
of the Pope's critical condition to-day,
Cardinal Gibbons said:
In the death of Pope Leo shall lose
a dear friend and father. 1 have known
MIN for twenty years, and with an ever
increasing admiration of his character.
He had not the unfailing sweetness and
amiability of Plus TX, whom l also
knew, though not so well: but he pos
sessed a much stronger character and
was distinguished by a singular nobil-
ity of mind, which made his influence
felt within the church and without.
Il have crossed the ocean, back and
forth, sixteen times, and my visits dur
Ing the present pontificate were spe-
cially memorable, chiefly through my
intercourse with the Holy Father. who
was always most kind. 1t was impos-

allied and courageous spirit and the

Brock then went to Illinois to live.
He married the child wife of Gen. Clay

divorced her and received a home in
Woodford county from the general,
who sought TO make them comforta-
BILE by bestowing upon them nearly all
he had gathered during his stay at st.
Petersburg, where he was United
States minister for several years.
Gen. Clay gave them land so that
they might rent it out and live on the
income, but Brock soon tired and sold
everything, including the presents CIV
en- to his wife by Gen. Clay. The gem
ersl then sent for the girl to come back
to Whitehall, and she went, but insist
ed upon having her husband remain
there also Gen. Clay dismissed him
and she followed. A telegram received
here tonight said that the girl ex-
poets to find a home at Whitehall and

The correspondent of the Associated
Press made an inquiry on the subject

that the report was untrue No such
instructions have been sent to Cardinal

presence of Cardinal Matthew at the
Vatican is due to the fact that he is a

which necessitates his attendance un-

His action is quite independent of the
French government, which has not
