OUT ON BOND. .4 P John Bowman Is Discharged With
 out Bail And Peyton Held in a Bond of $1o,oOO, Which He
 Promptly Gave.

. Peyton G. Bowman gets bond in the sum of S10, ,000, and John T. Bowman dis charged.
 That was the result of the habeas corpus trial, which ended at 5:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon.
 On the night of June 12, in the Florence bar, Peyton Bowman shot and killed Eu- gene Jeffers. It was claimed by the prose- cution that John Bowman had disarmed and was bolding Jeffers when he was shot. Both were arrested and charged with mur- der.
 At the preliminary trial, which was had two weeks ago, P. G. Bowman was denied bail and John Bowmau's bond fixed at $5OOO. A writ of ha beas corpus was sued out before Judge Sharpe of the city court, with the result above stated.
 The defense introduced some new evil dence yesterday, which put a new light on the deed. One witness swore on the stand that he heard the deceased threaten the life of F. G. Bowman and that he was then looking for gun or pistol.
 No arguments were made, the attorneys submitting the evidence to the court.
 John Bowman was released from custody immediately after the court anrsunced the decision, and friends were soon on hand to make F. G. Bowman's bond. His bonds- men are J. A. Bingham of Talladega, MT. Dean of Shelby county and MT. Chalifoux of Birmingham.
 His bond was approved and he was re- leased shortly after the decision of the court,

LEGAL BATTLE BEGINS
ron 4 MODIFICATION or JUDGE
JENKINS FAMOUS ORDER.
A sharp CoIioquy Between the Judge and
the Attorney for tho Labor Organiza-
tombstone of Those Present.

MILWAUKEE. WIS. March 2.-The
legal battle for the modification OF Judge
jenkins strike order was begun in the
United States Circuit Court this MORN
ing Attorney Harper began by calling
attention 10 the petition of the receiver
on which the injunction was granted,
that the men were preparing TO resist
reductions Of wages Mr. Harper insist
ed that the receivers petition was i'm
proper, az II did not show that irrepar-
able injury would be done to the North
ern Pacific property. The petition show
ed on its face that the men were leaving
the service OF the Northern Pacific. and
about TO leave for the lawful purpose OF
opposing an unjust schedule of wages.
The men were not striking to cripple the
road as alleged by the receivers.
Tilt Br'ween Judge and Attorney.
Mr.. Harper said: This is the first
time any court has gone to the eN-
tent that this court did"
Il think you are mistaken" interrupt
ed Judge jenkins.
Mr.. Harper repeated his assertion ana
added. Under no circumstances should
your Honor have granted this injunc-
ton. In the Toledo and Ann labor
case" said Mr. Harper, Judges Taft
and Kicks admitted the mems right to
strike"
who has ever questioned that right?'
asked Judge Jenkins.
Mr. Harper held that the injunction
forbid the men even talking about quit
ting. Mr.. Harper claimed it was right
OF the men TO work or loaf as they
saw IT. and no law could prevent their
free choice. He said he was employed
by the chief railway labor organizations;
he represented S2l 600 men. and not alone
the Northern Pacific employees. This
was vital question with all.
What Is IA Strike?
The court asked what counsel meant
by a strike.
Mr. Harper said: Simply a quitting"
mo. sir" said Judge Jenkins. "a strike
IS a stopping of work TO enforce a certain
demand. IL is the same as a lockout
when used as a weapon 10 enforce
certain demand"
After Mr.. Harper J. V. Quares spoke
on behalf of the employees, arguing on
the law question. 1t appeared during his
argument that men are working for the
Northern Pacific fearing to quit on ac-
count Of the injunction.
SnaGe Jenkins said the injunction did
not forbid them quitting. He said "The
men have not the right to combine and
conspire with "A view TO enforcing de-
mands, 10 compel compliance to their
demands by saying we shall cease work
and you shall be injured so that you
shai} have 20 comply without having
an honest intention to quit. If the en-
ployes want to quit and go to Texas or
elsewhere singly or I'm groups, they have
the right to do So
They want to Go to Texas.

Dressing Rihle Characters

There is a widely-prevaiing notion that
while the Bible is not too old to he useful.
its age nevertheless. makes against II,
and that IL is. therefore. the duty Of the
teacher To freshen ii up and make il
look as spry as possible, by dressing II
in modern garb. Some OF our teachers
are 20 deeply impressed with this duty
that they never come across Bible
character without stopping 10 try a new
suit OF clothes on him. Adam Is hardly
out OF Eden before he is sporting I'm

the trouble about these efforts 10 throw

light that IS IN the Bible by placing the
Bible in a ridiculous light. II Is like
