that a public consistory will be held on
December . for the purpose of confer
ring the red hats on the Cardinals who

The names OF the new Cardinals are
not mentioned. lest the news should

the case last year when Cardinals Far

Cardinals will be announced or guessed
from the arrival OF the candidates
here. The Vatican denies they have
already been selected and hence the
date Of the secret consistory Is not
given.

F the optimism of some of my friends
 has a substantial basis we are soon A to see the beginning of an era of phe- nomenal prosperity. Even alarmsts and chronic eroakers will admit that good times will return one of these days. But men who are supposed to have good judg- ment in material matters think that with the approach of summer the business world will witness a greater degree ot activity than has been seen since 1907 Birmingham will not only share in what ever prosperity comes to the country al largo, but it will go forward at a faster rate than ever before.
 Enough large construction work is blocked out in northern Ala hama to make things hum in this in- dustrial and commercial center. Sky scraper hotels and elegant apartment houses will be in course of erection with in the next 12 months, and along with these great improvements Birmingham should have an auditorium as large, If not larger, than that built in Atlanta a few years ago.

COLD SPELL WILL BE
 BROKEN THIS WEEK
Weather Observers Predict Warmer Weather for
 Some Time

Washington. February 1.-The most severe and protracted cold spell of many years will probably be broken this week and the unusual winter which has partially paralyzed transportatic on land and sea, taken many lives ana caused untold suffering in all parts of the country, will give waytq more sea- sonable temperatures.
 Observers of the weather bureau do not promise there will be no more cold waves this winter, but they predict that the next week or 10 days will be the forerunner of spell of moderate weather.
 Since the last week in December. save for short periods, in all the country east of the Rocky mountains, new rec ords for extreme low temperatures have been set. While 1t was extremely cold in the east, however, temperatures w-re above normal on the Pacific slope.
 Ar times below zero was recorded as far south as Tennessee, Arkansas, northern Texas and Oklahoma, and frosts were recorded in Miami, Fla, where they rarely occur.
 Lake Superior, greatest of the Great Lakes, is reported frozen over from shore to shore, something never heard of before. In the present month the mercury at Sault Ste. Marie Is touched 32 below at Northfield, Vermont 26 be- low. while In San Francisco it has never been colder than 46 degrees above.
 But the weather map of the north CT, hemisphere as it looks today shows general change toward moderation and the weather bureau looks for warmer weather from now on.
 There are no indications at the pres ; ent time of a general storm to cross the country. The precipitation for the week probably will be light except in northwestern states.

 WILL HEAD PARADE

New York. February 1i.-(Special.) )--The anti-suffrage argument against woman s adaptabilty to make cavalry charge in the time of warfare will be exploded when 50 beautiful young women of so- cial distinction, who proclaim themselves willing and able to go to war, will dem- orstrate their peculiar fitness by riding on high spirited mounts at the head of the big suffrage parade on May 4.
 The young volunteer cavalry women have thrown away their stays and, don hing riding boots and brooches, will this week begin training for the big pageant.
 Miss Anna Tinker, the beautiful young suffragist who is arranging this extra ordinary feature of the ''votes for wom- en- demonstration, and who will lead them down Fifth avenue. was one of the first women to ride astride in Central Park.
 ''To eliminate pompadours and other fancy hair dressing to which any might be inclined.' said Miss Tinker today, we shall wear uform style hat, a three cornered George Washington effect with cockade of suffragist colors, green, white and purple.
 Do believe women should go to war;" asked the pretty suffraglst, in answer to the question. Goodness, yes; if they want to. Why not? It is much pleasanter | tnlilk to play lHe IOle UT HeTo soiiS to the front than to remain at home and probably starve to death or worry to death with responsibilities.
 This hero business for men, I think. has been exaggerated to their credit. With all the sacrifices women make At such a time and the hard work they do at home and on the battlefield as nurses are absolutely left out when the laurel wreaths are passed around afterward."
 Mrs O. IT, P. Belmont will walk at the head of her division, the Political Equality league.

Lillian Russell to
 Shame Queen Sheba

New York, February 11.-tSpecial)--Lil- Han Russell is preparing to make the Queen of Sheba look like King Cophetuas s beggar maid. On the night of Februaly y 19 she is to appear on the stage in gown sllttering with jewels. l.. Kramer. manager, designer and in- ventor of glittering garb for Fifth ave nue milliner, arrived from abroad today with all the material for the gown, the boxes of jewels and the plans and spec: fications. He said he had gone to Paris expressly to get this creation for Miss Russell and that would surely be some
 gown.
 Miss Russell has had 8 hand or two .n the design of the gown, at least she gave
 Mr. Kramer few glittering generalities,
 stipulating. however, that these gener-
 alities should be purchased in Paris, 1e-
 cause the French gems were more bril-
 liant than the American, and if tsey
 were not brilliant what was the use Of
 them anyway? Indeed. so successful was
 MT. Kramer and so lifelike were the
 jewels for the gown that MT. Kramer was
 afraid the customs people would think
 he was the Maharajah of 'Gwailior, or
 one of those fellows, and set him back
 about $30OO,00O in duties. So that was how
 the glittering cat got out of the bag.
