Frank James in Huntsville, Ala, to
Stand Trial in the United
States Court
On Charge Of Robbing One of Uncle
Sans Paymasters near Mus
sci Shoals.
The Colonel Thinks He Has Good Case
and is Confident Of Acquittal
NUNS the Word.

HUNTSVILLE, ALA, April Prank
James, who is here in jail awaiting his
trial upon charge of robbing the Paymas-
ter OF the United States near the Mussel
Shoals Canal, in I.auderdale County, Ala,
in March, 1882, said to-day that his health
is better than it has been for years. He
added that he mad been kindly treated by
the Sheriff and the United States Marshal,
and that he had no complaint to make
against any one here. The
prisoner is really looking remark
ably well considering his recent Illness
and his long imprisonment. Speaking Of
his trial, in the United States District
Court, James said that he had secured
the services Of General L. Pope Walker,
OF this city, J. W. Newman, of Fayette-
vile, Tenn, and X. b. Sloane, Of Nash
vile, as his attorneys. General Walker,
is one Of the best and most influential
lawyers in Alabama. If Messrs. New
man and Sloane are as able as Walker,
James will certainly be well defended.
He expresses himself as being well
satisfied of certain and prompt vim
dicatlon and acquittal, provided he can
have a fair and impartial trial.
DICK LIDDIL
arrived here several DAYS ago and has been
subpGned as witness in the case on be-
half of the United States. 1t is not known
what his evidence will be, nor is it GER
tain that a jury would be influenced in
giving verdict against James upon the
evidence Of man already convicted of
the same offeuse.

arrived here on last Thursday and is stay
ing at the Stegall Hotel, which is but one
square from the Jail. She has visited her
husband twice and appears 10 be in good
spirits, believing that he will certainly be
acquitted, and that he will within two
weeks leave here with her free man.
There are several strangers in the city
who are supposed to be here as witness
es, either on behalf of James or against
him. Only two or three Of them have
ever been here before, and none Of them
are personally known to any Of our citi-
zens. one of them either knows or pre-
tends to know a great deal about James
This man declares that he has known
james for at least twenty-iOur years; that
he first became acquainted with him in
Missouri when he was boy and Frank
James was entering upon his manhood;
that he has known him intimately ever
since, and has seen him frequently at dif-
ferent times and in different States. He
further says that in March, Is, Che would
not give the year the month in which
Frank James is charged in the indictment
with having
COMMITTED THE ROBBERY,
near Mussel Shoals, and upon the day the
robbery is said to have been committed,
he was with Frank James in Nashville,
Tenn, and consequently knows that be
was not engaged in the robbery. He
further says that he is well satisfied
James knew nothing OF the robbery, and
never heard of it until he read of it in the
Nashville papers. This man will be
witness for the defendant. He was very
careful in his conversation and refused to
answer questions as to himself, but ad-
mitted that he was from Missouri.
Court convened this morning, and it is
expected that lstice W. b. Woods, of the
United States Supreme Court, Judge d.
A. Parker, United States Circuit Judge,
and District Judge John Brown will all be
in attendance. The James trial will
probably be taken up early next week.

A SUCCESSFUL EXPERIMENT WITH

BY a ten acre field Of cotton, Mr..
A. j. Kibler had sown down in
oats at all-allowed the seed to
lie upon the surface Of the earth
at the mercy Of the birds, wealth
er, &c. 1t took one a half day to
sow the seed. Lsst week the oats
were harvested at an expense of
$3.50, and the yield was nearly 800
bushels, enough to feed his two
mules IL months. Thus with an
outlay Of not more than SO, Mr..
Kibler has provided for the sup
port Of his working stock for an
othe, year, and at the same time
proven the fact that oats can be
made just as we'll without cover
ing as with it, upon comparative
ly fresh land. About the same
time Mr.. Kibler was having this
grain sown, a tenant Of his tried
the no covering process upon a
few acres OF cotton land that had
been ''laid by more than ten days
and upon which rain had fallen
since last plowed. 1t looked like
throwing the seed away, but it
made q magnificent yield likewise.

TINE BOY WHO KISSED HIS MO-

She sat on the porch III the sunshine,

But whose face was blossom sweet ;
Making me think of a garden,
Where, in spite Of the frost and snow
OF bleak november weather,
Late fragrant lilies blow.
heard footstep behind me,
And the sound OF a merry laugh,
And I knew the heart it came from
Would be like comforting staff
IN the time and hour of trouble.
Hopeful and brave and strong,
One Of the hearts to lean On
When we think that things go wrong.
turned at the click Of the gate latch,
And met his manly look;
A face like his gives me pleasure,
Like the page OF pleasant book,
It told of steadfast purpose,
OF brave and daring will -
A face with promise in it
That God grant the years fulfill.
He went up the pathway singing;
saw the wOman's eyes
Grow bright with worldless welcome
AS sunshine warns the skies.
"Back again, sweet mother"
He cried, and bent to kiss
The loving face that was lifted
For that which some mothers miss.
That boy will do to depend on,
hold that this Is true
From lads iA love with their mothers
Our bravest heroes grew.
Earth's grandcst hearts have been low
ing hearts
Since time and earth began;
And the boy who kissed his mother
Is every inch man.

Most Of the members are very
careful about correcting the proofs
OF their speeches, and some change
and revise until their speeches
could scarcely be recognized by
one who heard them on the floor Of
tho House. The new members are
particularly whimsical. and uneasy,
though some never get over their
nervousness, no matter how long
they have served in the House.

copy that goes to tho printing office
from the Capitol. Mr.. Morrison
is one of the best-natured men in

and is always very free to make
allownces for errors Randall is
also good-natured in this respect.
Hewitt, Of New York, is a thoro'

in settling with the printer. 1t is
customary to have speeches printed
by subscription, each member pay

bert will not allow this with his
speeches. He pays out of his own
pocket for every copy printed, and
gives them to those who want them.
From his quick nervous manner
he has gotten the reputation of
"fussy." But that he is fussy is
denied by his printers. They say
he is neat and careful but is al

Spring days of old were warm and long,
They're longer now, and colder.
The world once liked merry song;
It's sadder now, and older.
The fairies and the merry elves
Are shy and discontented;.
They'd sense enough to hide themselves
When east winds were invented.
When songs they sang were sad at all
1t was q CHEEKY sadness;
The songs we write, If glad at all,
Express solemn gladncss.
Our smile is but chastened grin,
Our fathers laughed and meant It;
Aid when they sinned some jovial sin
They left us to repent 1t.
