Special to The Journal.

Chipley, Fla, April 1S.-About a
ago a would-be assassin went
to the home of Archie Smith, an old
one-armed Confederate soldier, and
an honest and law-abiding citizen of
Orange Hill, and from the darkness
discharged a shot gun through an
open window at his daughter, Cora,
age Is years, inf1icting painful wounds
on the right side of her face, which
resulted in the total loss of one eye.
Mr. Smith, believing that he and
his family were not safe in that
neighborhood so long as the party
who made the attempt to assassi-
nate his daughter, was at large,
moved out of that section and down
on Econfina Creek.
Yesterday his stepson, a young
man by the name of Patterson, was
going along the public road, when
some one, who had concealed himself
near the roadside. fired on him from
ambush. seriously wounding him.
Sheriff Allen was notified and PIT
his dogs on the trail, but up to this
time no news as to the guilty party
has developed. There is considerable
excitement over it and every effort
possible to bring the criminal to JUS

ROMAN CHURCH
WILL WITHDRAW
District Establishment of
Church is but Matter of a
Few Years, Says Arch
bishop of Milwaukee
Government is Unfriendly
to Catholics.
az AssocIated Press.

Milwaukee, Wis. April 1S.-The
distinct establishment of the Catholic
church in Italy, within a few years
is predicted by the Most Reverend
Sebastian G. Messmer, archbishop of
milwaukee. in an interview today.
Everything now" said the bishop,
points to that event. The govern
ment is distinctly unfriendly TO the
church. and the church, having no
voice in national matters, is power
less TO avert a condition in Italy that
will be but a repetition of tn situa-
lions now obtaining in France
Bishop Messmer's statement was
called for in commenting upon an in
terv.ew given by Rev. F. H. Wright,
in which the latter predicted dis
established church in Italy, within
ten years, saying the people are firing
of the dominion of the church, and
were drifting into infdelIty and
anarchism-
Commenting on the Rev. Wright
statement, Bishop Messmer says it is
true that large portion of the people
of Italy seem TO be drifting from the
church. many of them into infidelity
This. he said was due to the govern
ment appointing infidels to professor
ships in the institutions of learning
Thus intidelity was sown broadcast
among the upper classes Another
canse, he said, was that the people
"were ignorant of the principles OF
their religion; they don't understand
iis"
