The Sacred Cou tge

---TIAes< ssosapf1nces of the church com- pose the sacred college or college of cardinals--a body ruling over 100000 900 Catholics throughout Christendom. and one of the most conservative legis- 1atiye bodies in the world. The sacred college settles all questions, always on same way, that arise among Catholics in over 50 different countries Extreme caution also marks this body's delibera- tions and 1t is sometimes years, some times decades and even centuries before its mandate is delivered
 The sacred college Is not always in session. The majority of it's members reside elsewhere than in Rome. Those who make their home in Rome, how ever, and who invariably compose the six cardinal bishops, have charge of the various departments of the central pontifical administration, which is known as the curia.
 Since 1t became known that IS new cardinals were to be invested with the red hat there has been considerable talk among American Catholics both here and in the United States over the possibility of an American cardinal be- ing raised to the chair of St. Peter at the next conclave. There is, however, not the remotest possibility of an Amer ican pope occupying the vatican, &C., cordlng to the best informed authori- ties.
 Such a move would be in violation of . species of century old myth or un-

AUTOMOBILE FIGHT
 ON IN ATLANTA Whether Pedestrians or Au- tOs Own Streets Council
 Is to Decide

Atlanta, Ga., November 20. (Special.,- Do the streets belong to the autoists, or to the pedestrians, or have both rights? This question comes up every few weeks or so in Atlanta and fight nearly always follows, in which tho honors are about even. It is scheduled to come to the sur face once more at the next meeting of the general council, and this time, wneI both autoists and footwalkers are at tackled, it marks the first time that an effort has been made to so describe just how and when man shaii walk.
 The ordinance referred to practically holds that the streets belong to tine ve- hicles, the sidewalks to the pedestrians, and the corners to both. If 1t became a law, which now seems doubtful, no man or woman in Atlanta would be allowed t0 cross a street between cross streets; every man or woman getting off car at 8 corner would have to walk to the near est sidewalk first, and then cross at right angles.
 Of course the autosts are likewise to be limited in their rights. It was pro- posed to Increase the speed limit from eight to 12 miles. the principal argument
 in favor of this change being that 1t is diffio's'+ 'r rurcf fsee'' ssg' sfs tfas1's5
