SELMA NOW HAS A
 MUSICAL GHOST Sweet Strains of Music Came
 from the Church AT DEAD HOUR OF MIDNIGHT Policemen Gan Get No Glue as to the Identity of the Nocturnal Musi- elan Who Inhabits the Pres-
 byte-ian Church.
AT DEAD HOUR OF MIDNIGHT I

Selma, May 17-(Specia1.) Selma has a musical ghost A few nights ago Officers Buritt and Eddy were on their way to re- port for duty. It was just little past the hour when graveyards yawn, and spectral figures are supposed to walk on earth. As the policemen passed along in front of the Alabama Street Presbyterian church all at once they heard an organ playing and the sweetest sounds mortal ever lis tened to rolled out to them as they halted at the gate leading into the church yard.
 At first Officer Burftt thought the sounds came from the adjoining house, but on going around to the side window it was easily evident that the organ in the church was the instrument from which came the wonderful music.
 The two officers astounded, yet charmed, with the music that almost seemed to come from some celestial source, went around to the front door and suddenly the soft strains turned into that familiar air 'Nearer My God to Thee. The officers shook the front door determined to find the source of the strange occurrence, when the music ceased and all was still.
 This is not the first time that the report has gone out that in the dead of night the sound of sweet music is heard in the CiuICH5 III ldcI, OllcSf mlileT lefiS an lIl- cident that happened to him about two years ago. He was passing the church about midnight when he heard a noise coming from the little verandah of the church. He went in the yard and was about to make investigation when, a whirring sound passed by him, leaving a hot breath on his cheek, and striking the fence a few yards off, breaking several palings loose from the fence. where they were discovered next morning.
 Burglars at Work
 When Joe Rosenberg awoke this morn ing and took a gaze around his room his Yaluables were missing.
 When he went to bed he had a few dol lars in change in his pants pocket and his watch and chain in his vest. This morn ing he was minus both and also a quantity of his clothes While he slept some thief had entered his room and taken away such articles as suited his fancy.
 Noting that intruder had been in his room during the night it was with an anxious feeling that he took up his vest and felt in the inside pocket where before retiring he had placed a roll of bills. It was with no small sigh of relief that he found the thief had overlooked the roll, and 1t partly soothed him for the loss of his other property.

TEAM SIGNED
Players Who Will Tackle Selma Have
 Been Secured

Since the announcement of the coming of the Selma baseball team there has been great activity in local sporting circles, and the work of organizing a team is being rapidly pushed. The names of twelve amateurs and semi-professionals have been secured and the boys will begin practice today tomorrow. The local managers realize that they will have to go against a strong team when they tackle the Tn vincibles,'' but with few days hard prac- tice they expect to make it decidedly in- teresting for the men from Selma.
 The Birmingham fans have been suffer- ing for the sport, and when the umpire losses out the new ball next Monday it is expected that North Birmingham park will be filled with enthusiastic spectators. If the series proves success financially, sev- eral of the semi-professional teams, repre- senting Memphis, Rome, Ga, Mobile, New Orleans and other southern cities will ar range games at this place, and it is prob- able that regular schedule will be framed and adopted

wailing was heart-rending. It nearly crazed me, weary and worn-out as I was from constant watching and nursing. The dis charge of matter was so profuse that it was necessary to dress his back three times a day. Every time the bandages were removed blood would flow and for time even powders and different salves did not check the trouble. It be- came necessary to wrap the little body in silk. When the trouble appeared at its height our anxiety was increased by. the ap- pearance of boil just outside the lid alongside one of his eyes. We feared lest the scrofulous mat ter get into the eye, and even if his life was spared to us, that his sight would become affected.
