ernor of the papal province of Benevento
and, like Sixtus V, busted himself with
the suppression of brigandase. In CON
nection with this work the following story
was told of Mgr. Pecci: A certain marquis
called ono day to protest against what he
considered the interference of the gov
ernor and informed the latter that he
was Just starting for Rome to procure his
recall.
Have you considered the step well,
marQuis?" asked Mgr. Pecc
Yes, monsignor," said the other land

To this the governor rcjoined. "Resolu-
tons OF this kind should be we'll consider
ed at leisure. You will do me the honor
of STAYING here for the present
That same night the marquis s castle
was surrounded and ~ brgands of whom
he was patron and chief. were arrested

Frem Benevento Mgr Pecci was trans
ferred to the governorship of Perugia,
where he remained for year and half.
The young ecciesiastic, in 1913 was
called to exercise his talents in more
important post, being conseclatod bishop
of Damietta in partibus and sent to Brus-
sells as papal nuncio. 1t was as roprrs-
entative of the Vatican in the HelGian
capital that he first gained the political
insight and experience which have been
one of the principal characteristics of his
tenure of the pontifcal throne.
Mgr Peoci remained over three years
in Belgium. and on his recall to Italy was
decorated with the grand Gordon of the
order OF Leopold.
After leaving Brussels the nuncio paid
visit to London. This was in February,
1916, and in the same year he was con-
sccrated archbishop of Perusia. He

SKETCH or THE POPE.

His late holiness was born at Carpineto
in the diocese of Anagni in the papal
states, on March 2 1910, being christencd
under the name of Joachim Vincent The
Society of Jesus, which it was afterwards
the first care of his pOntihcate to re-
store TO its ancient position in the coun-
ellis of the church, was entrusted with his
education, young Pecci being sent at the
age of eight years to the Jesuit College
at Niberbo, where he remained until his
18th year. At this time his mother died
and he shortly afterwards proceeded to
Rome to continue his studies at the
Jesuit College in that city.
When he was IS years old he secured
the FIRST prize for chemistry and physics
His aptitude for natural science. however,
in no way interfered with his taste for
literature and classical studies, and even
IN those early days he was remarkable for
the elegance and purity of his Latin
which subsequently found such notable
expression not only in his encylicals and
ecclesiastical WORT, but in the higher plane
of poetry. He obtained in 1881, the de-
gree of doctor of divinity and entered the
Academy of Noble Eccesasticals to study
law and diplomacy and thus qualify him
self for joining what may be termed
the papal diplomatic service and become
ccnversant with the system of the spirit
ual government. 1t is from the ranks of
this official body that, in these days, a
new pontn is almost invariably chosen
In 1887 Joachim Pecci received the sub
diaconate and diaconate and on March
Il of the same year Gregory XVI made
him domestic prolatc, his first promo
ton, with the title of monsrsnor.
on December 20. 1897, he was ordained

done by the Savannah folks. To those
who know Savannahians no more is
necessary to describe the fun that will
be had.
The Jacksonville team is practicing
regularly and playing one or two
practice games a week to get in shape.
If what is remembered of former bowl
ing visitors is true of the present chal-
longing team good article of bowl
ing will be put up by them. The Sa-
vannah team is also keeping in trim
so as to be in shape for all Corners.
Atlanta has not been heard from as
to the next match game but a propo-
sal for a return match is expected at
any time.
Arrangements will be made for the
South Villagers" and a game or Sc
ries will be fixed as soon as possible.
The first game will be played here
but it is not known upon what alleys.
The Yacht Club alleys will probably
be used. The expenses of bringing a
team here is no small item, though,
and no admission fee can be charged
if the games are played at the Yacht
Club because the constitution of the
club forbids it. The Hussars alleys
are too small to accommodate a crowd
and the Tomocbichi alleys are not
very much larger, and the question
now in the minds of the promoters OF
the games is where to play them
Those obstacles will probably be over

RIDERS CANNOT FIGHT
AND ESCAPE PUNISHMENT
George Leander Must Pay $50 for
Scrap in Atlanta.


Scrap in Atlanta.
I AS a result of his fight with the Be
dell brother at the Atlanta Coliseum, at
the close of the six-day race in that
city, George Leander, the speedy Chi
cago pace follower, will have to pay
$50 into the treasury of the National
Cycling Association.
Leander is given his choice of doing
this or staying out of the game until
May 80, and as Prince explained yes
terday the man from Chicago can pick
up five times that amount any old
night that he gets out and rides.
Prince received a telegram yesterday
from Chairman Batchelder of the
Board of Control, announcing what had
been done to Leander.
Jack wired Chairman Batchelder
from Macon, asking him to be as light
on Leander as possible, and explaining
that the Chicago rider was not really
at fault in the Atlanta mixup. The
Board of Control evidently took
Princes word for it. for the reason
that $50 is a very light fine. The
N. C. a. is severe on riders who do
anything that tends to put the game
in bad repute, and in this way keeps
cycling in a class all to itself. Leander
was Immediately notified by Prince of
the decision of the Board of Control
and the fine will be paid.
