Rome, Jan. 21.-Pope Benedict's condition grew worse overnight. Pneumonia progressed and this morn ing visitors were told that the pope was dying. He remained conscious most of the night and fell asleep this morning at 1 o'clock Physicians then said the end was only question of hours. It came late today.
 Pope Benedict XIV, the 259th suc- cessore of St. Peter as supreme head of the Roman Catholic church, be- gan his pontifcate on September 6, 1914, soon after Europe entered up- on it's four years of war. Upon many occasions during the war he endeavored to bring the belligerent nations to a peace agreement and thus to maintain the title which had been affectionately bestowed upon him by high dignitary of his com- munion as messenger God sent to bring peace"
 The war between Italy and Aus trla, in both of which peoples of the Catholic religion predominate, was particularly a great sorrow to the pope. Those near to him said he de- precated the German violation of Belgium. When the Lusitania was sunk he telegraphed to the then Elm peror William his abhorrence of a deed which had shocked the world.
 The successor of Plus X was said to have combined the statesmanship of Pope Leo XIII with the grace of his immediate predecessor. He en- deavored, it is said, to carry out the ideals and policies of those two great churchmen. But the world war, which broke the heart of Plus X, saddened the first four years of his pontificate and prevented the full hllment of some of his aspirations.
 One of the incidents of his pon- tltical career was the visit which President Wilson paid to him on Jan uary 4, 1919, when the president went to Rome prior to the opening of the peace conference at Paris. ooclal and treaty questions were discussed, it is said, during the pri- vate audience at the cocnlusion of which Pope Benedict presented to his guest handsome mosaic reproduc ing Guido Reni's famous picture of Saint Peter, valued at $4O,OOO.
 One of the smallest men physically ever elected to the chair of St. Peter, the former Cardinal della Chiesa nev- CT expected to be thus honored by the Sacred College and is said to have wept when apprised of his election. He would have preferred, he said, to remain a simple priest or, at most, cardinal and archbisohp of Bologna.
 On the day of his election he spoke of the burden of sponsibility thrust upon lone frail brain" and expressed his horror of the world conflict then being waged and his hope that it

Washington, Jan. 21.-Pope Bene- dict is believed to have weakened his constitution by continued efforts to stop or mitigate the world war. This IS believed by many officials of the church, including American cardinals familiar with the actions of the su- preme head of thee hurch.
 Benedict believed that his note to all belligerents in August was the first step toward the Washington con ference on international limitations of armament.
 The pope was always friendly with the United States, despite the fact that no diplomatic relations were maintained between Washington and the Vatican, as is the case with other world powers.

 London, Jan. 21.--The first news of the death of Pope Benedict at Rome was given the world this after noon by Cardinal Bourne, who stated that he had been officially notified by wire from Rome.
 Transmission of the news in this manner is apparently in conformity with the custom by which the cardi- nals of the Catholic church, compris Ing the sacred college from whose number the succeeding pope is se- lected, are first informed of the death ot pope and then the news gen. erally made public.

GLENwooD TEAMS
AGAIN VICTORIOUS

The Glenwood girls and boys bas-
ketball quintets again walloped their
opponents last Friday night, defeating
the Rifle teams by fine score.
The game was eagerly anticipated as
the rivalry between the two teams had
been strong, and the game was there
fore we'll attended and the interest
was intense from start to finish.
The girls game was one of the fast
est games played for some time. The
Rifle team was much heavier bunch
and at first it appeared that the local
girls would not have much chance
against their opponents. However, the
Rifle girls were not good basket shoot
ers, compared with the G.C.H.S. team.
The score at the end Of the first half
stood 6-4 and the final score was 25-10
in Glenwood's favor. Cornelia Burdge
as forward was our star player, max
ing most Of the baskets.
The boys game was fast and furious
and again the G.C.H.s. team work,
their defense and their excellent basket
shooting won them the honors Of the
day.
The score at the end of the game
showed Glenwood in the lead by 32-17.
Referee Baum Of Grand Valley under
stood the game thoroughly and was
very fair in every respect, and the
spirit between the two teams was
splendid.
