said; D-n him, know him as far as can see him, and can kill him as far as can see him He was talking of Goebei. This conversation was in the adJutant- generals office. He also said: D-n him. I know his every movement, and can hit him with this as far as can see him. He carried a Colts 22 that shoots a Winchester cartridge six or eight inches in the barrel. Coombs was in the assistant adju tant-gen- erals office on the morning of the shooting with Hooker Smith and John Wallace. I saw the man who got the key from John Powers this morning. The fellow was 9 little man. When we Caleb apd Joan Powers and myseif) went back there, ne said, You have given he the wrong key I don't remember what John said to him. The rest of the day I was around town. No reference was made to the key the rest of the day. The key was local business"
 'NOn Tuesday did you meet Caleb and John Powers?" asked Attorney Campbell.
 "Yes, did; saw them in Caleb's office. got letter from Blakeman that morning asking me to come to Louisville Caleb said he was going wath me, but said he might want me to go to the mountains. He was talking to Walter Day and Govern or Taylor. E. J. Howard, of Harland county, came up and he talked to Fraylor. He insisted on Taylor calling out the mill tta
 
 "Tay1or said: My God, you people mast do something adding, I can get the mti- tia quick enough. You fellows mpst Act first By what I understood we fellows must raise a riot in the senate chamber while Goebel was there. As told you this morning, we would clean. out enQugh tor that legislature there to make it ouf way"
 What do you mean by that?' |
 "Oh, kill 'em." E
 "After Taylor was through talking urged Powers to go to the train with me, as it was due. I learned at LaGranRe that Senator Goebel had been shot. We con- tinued to Louisville I do not kndw why MT. Powers went to Louisville. Both Joan and Caleb Powers were along. We left for Frankfort that afternoon and went directly to the state house, I never saw MT Powers again that day." e.cy ss8 a
 Attorney Campbell then took the wit ness back and Golden told of a conyersa- tion he had with Caleb Powers on a train in Laurel county previous to the shooting
 ''Calab Powers saId," continued Golden, " d-n 'em; we've got them l understood by that remark that we had the democrats down here, and we could do as we pleased after we got here.''
 The witness then took up the events after the shooting. He said he saw a man named Blakeman In Louisville. Blakeman and John Powers had a conversa tion.
 Counsel for the defense strongly objected ito this line of examination, and the com monwealth withdrew il and announced that 1t was through with the witness.
 Golden, who was very weak from his hemor1hage, begged to be allowed a few minutes rest, and he was accordingly taken cut by a deputy sheriff
 Golden's illness proved more serious than at first thought, and after half an hours delay, adjOmTyment was taken until 10 a. m. Monday. The defense will then take up the croSs-eXa naination and introdlbee testimony in rebuttal.

SCHOOL FUNDS IN
 GOOD CONDITION Superintendent Fountain Con- pIetes Semi-Annual Report. PERIOD ENDED MARCH 3l
Makes Comparative Statement With Last Year, and Shows That More Children Have Been Taught
 at Less Cost Per Capita

County Superintendent of Education Jerry Fountain has completed his semi-aniiual report. which shows the school funds ot the county to be In excellent condition His report is fallows:
 1 present herewith a financial statement of the school funds of Jefferson county for the six months beginning October 1, 1SS9 and ending March 31, 1900. These figures do not include Birmingham, Pratt City, Bessemer, Woodlawu and Avondale. give first a statement of the funds of last year as compared with the first six months of this scholastic year.
 So far as I have been able to ascertain (and I have had very limited access to any previous records of the off1ce), the records for last year show as follows: There was available last year
 Total state funds per capita. ..$ 7Sh Total poll tax per capita. 70 Total county tax per capita. .0S1s
 In round numbers, there was available for schools last year, $S6,OOO.
 I will have used to April 1 of this year: Total state fund per capita. ..$lOO Total poll tax per capital. .a Total county tax per capital. .2
 Total funds per caipita... ...xi.5S
 These figures show that there has been used fl cents less per capita than was used last year.
 Free public schools have been maintained in majority of instances for the six months, and will continue; the most nota- ble of which are East Lake, with three teachers: Elyton, with two teachers; West End, with two teachers; Gate City, with one teacher Mary Lee, with one teacher; Mintl,, with one teacher; Twenty-first ave- nue, with two teachers; Cotton Mills, wdth one teacher; Lakeview, with one teacher; Month Birmingham, with two teachers; Jonesville, with one teacher: Smithfieid. with one teacher; East Birmingham, with one teacher; and many other places over the county.
 These facts prove conclusively that we can have a full public school system for the county. In some places individual fee is charged in order to pay for rent and fuel (the state does not yet allow any of it's funds to be used for these purposes).

Ihad no strength in the arm; for three months could not lift a pin with my thumb and finger. Then got stiff all over; could not dress or undress myself for three months. Finally happened to get hold of sThe Ills of Life! In it read MT. Gould Durkee's testimonial and wrote to him asking him if 1t was true testimonial. He replied, telling me if I took your medicines I would get we'll. I took all three of them and they cured me. am free of pain, feel as Timber as I did fifteen years ago, and can sit down in any position and get up as spry as boy. consider Pe-ru-na the best medi- cine of it's kind I ever saw. I was 75 years old last August. was also troubled with diabetes, and the Pe-ru-na cured that. think Fortuna is the best medicine ever saw."
 In old age the mucous membranes be. come thickened and partly lose their function. This leads to partial loss of hearing, smell and taste, as well as di- gestive disturbances. Pe-ru-na corrects all this by it's specific operation on all the mucous membranes of the body. One bottle will convince anyone. Once used and Fortuna becomes lifelong standby with old and young.

MT. Isaac Brock, of McLennan county, Texas, has attained the great age of 110 years. He is an ardent friend to Peru na and speaks of it in the following terms: MT. Brock says: "After a man has lived in the world as long as have he ought to have found out great many things by experience. I think l have done so. One of the things have found out to my entire satisfaction is the proper remedy for ailments due directly to the effects of the climate. For no years I have withstood the changeable climate of the United States. During my long life I have known a great many remedies for coughs, colds, catarrh and diarrhoa. I. had always diseases. For the last ten or fifteen years I have been reading Dr. Hart mans books and have learned from them one thing in particular: that these affections are the same and that they are properly called catarrh. AS for Dr. Hartman's remedy, Pe-ru-na, I have found it to be the best, if not the only reliable remedy for these affections. It has been my standby for many years and I attribute my good health and my extreme old age to this remedy. It exactly meets all my requirements. I have come to rely upon it almost en- tirely for the many little things for which I need medicine. I believe it to be especially valuable to old people, al- though have no doubt it is justas good for the young" Isaac Brock.

UNION WINS
Court Decides That O'Keefe & Go. Must
 Give Up Label

The suit between Birmingham Typo graphical Union No. 104 and A. J. O'Keefe & Go. was decided yesterday afternoon by Justice H. B. Abernathy in favor of the plaintiff.
 This suit grew out of the use of the un- lon label by O'Keefe & Go. in the Daily Democrat. which they began publishing a few days ago. O'Keefe is the local leader of the Knights of Labor, which organiza- tion Is not recognized by the Typographical union, and when his firm placed the labels of both orders in his paper the local union demanded that they surrender the union label. This was refused, and the suit fol- lowed.
 i, MT. O'Keefe stated last night that he was prepared to carry the case to the highest courts, and would appeal.
