STAGG MAKES ADDRESS

Anniston, October 27.-(Special) )-Consid- erable enthusiasm was injected into the campaign for the location of the Presby- terian College for Women at the meeting Monday night in the courthouse. Ad- dresses were made by Dr. J. w. Stagg of Birmingham, pr. J. G. Anderson and the Rev. J. D. Simpson or this city. Dr. Foster of Birmingham, who was to have been present, was unayodably detained away.
 A good audience of Anniston people were present and were much interested in the addresses. Dr. Anderson presided over the meeting and introduced the speakers.
 Dr. Simpson of the First Methodist church made an excellent speech, in which he gave great credit to the Presby- terian denomination for its abounding in- terest in the cause of education, His speech was well received He advocated the hearty cooperation of Anniston with the Presbyterian synod in establishing the girls college here, pointing out the ad- vantages to both the school and the city in the step
 Dr. Stagg, who was the chief speaker, spoke at length on the advantages An niston offered for the school and of the advantages the school would give Annis- ton. It would bring to the city, he said, a class of the best citizens of the state and of other states. whose living expen- ses would soon recoup the city for any expenditure involved in securing the school. He said he had, early in the canvass for a location. arrived at the con- clusion that Anniston was the proper place for it and he still held to that opin- ion. He had, from the first, insisted on the location of the college here and would be with Anniston to the end. The city, he said, should present to the synod next
