PLANS FOR GREAT COLLEGE.
Money Being Raised to EDIarEe Tn,

MOneY beln& NutSGu AO AANO
 Alabama Brenau at Eufaula. mass meeting was held at the Carn negie a few night ago. the ob- feet of which was to raise money with which to enlarge the Alabama Brenau College of this city.
 Last spring President A. w. Van Hoose, of Brenau College Conservatory, Gainesville. Ga, undertook to rebuild what was Union Female College of Eu- faula. For several years the school
 i'd been a complete failure, and its best friends had come to the conclu- sion that its days of usefulness were over. President Van Hoose, of Gaines vile, visited Eufaula about that time and agreed with the trustees of the college that he and his associate, pr. .H, l. Pearce, would undertake to re- build the institution provided the citi- zens of Eufaula would guarantee to add to the building as soon as the present building was filled with stu dents.
 Much to the surprise of every one when the session opened last Septem Der the building was filled to over flowing. and has been so ever since. True 10 her obligation, Eufaula is in- teresting herself in raisine sufficient amount of money to put the school on a plane equal to that of other insti- unions of the South. Every citizen Is proud of the record that the school has made under its new management and there is no doubt that the Alabama Brenau will soon become one Of the largest and most successful schools oi the South
