Mrs. Freeman Accepts
 Agency for Woman's Work

Mrs. Paul Freeman has accepted the agency of Womans Work, the official or gan of the Alabama Federation, and will solicit both advertisements and subscrip- tions for this publication. She will confine her work exclusively to Birmingham, as other representative women are authorized agents for Woman's Work in their partic- ular sections of the state. Woman's Work is now so firmly established on business basis that Alabama women no longer feel any hesitancy in approaching the subject of advertising in their club organ to the business firms. It is no longer an experi- ment. Its position in clubdom has in creased with every issue, and it's subscrip- tion list has grown in proportion to its ar tistic and literary development. It is pre- eminently the best womans journal pub lished in the south, and, reaching the rep resentative club women in all sections, It offers a magnificent medium for advertis- ing purposes. While Woman's Work is es- sentially a club journal it will keep in touch with other topics of interest to its readers, and will include in its contents literary contributions from notable writers. The Federation could not have its inter- ests more capably represented in this city than by Mrs. Freeman. She is universally popular, and possesses to a marked degree the tact, energy and business ability qualities admired in the progressive woman of today-that are necessary for the success of any undertaking. With her powers of persuasion, backed by the inter- ests of hundreds of Alabama women and one of the most brilliantly edited woman's journals in the South, she should meet with great success.

THE ASSAILANT OF WILL LAVENDER Negro Caught Who is Believed
 to be Guilty. CUTTING OCCURRED IN MAY Lavender, a Conductor on East Lake Car Line, Was Stabbed by
 Negro Who Made His
 Escape
 
CUTTING OCCURRED IN MAY

Marshal Pair of Woodlawn last night rested Walter Byars, a negro who is charg- ed with an assault on Conductor Will La vender on the night of May 6, last.
 Motorman Strange, who was on the with Lavender at the time of the assault, identified Byars as the man who stabbed Lavender. Lavender is also understood to have identified Byars as his assailant.
 Conductor Lavender had charge of the East Lake car that left the Lake about Il o'clock on Sunday night, May G. On the car were several persons who were coming into town. A half dozen negroes had seats in the colored apartment When the car stopped at Fowler station two negro got off and the last one he passed Con- ductor Lavender, who was standing on the ground at the side of the platform, thrust his knife into the latters face. The blade entered just under the left ear and pene trated the carotid artery. Heroic efforts on the part of persons on the car succeeded in stopping the flow of blood until the wound ed man could be brought to the city and taken to the infirmary of Drs. Talley and Chapman. Both negroes ran off in the dark as soon as the conductor was stabbed and apparently no one knew who they were. It was stated later that Lavender's assailent was believed to have been a negro man he had had trouble with the Friday night pre- ceding.
 Byars was brought to the city last night and placed in the Jefferson County jail, where he will remain pending an investi- gation of the charge against him.

MS SISSIPPI PRIMARY
First to Select Delegates Ever Held in
 United States

Jackson, Miss, June 21.-The first primal ry election ever held in the United States to select delegates to a national convention was held today in the seventy-five counties of Mississippi. Five candidates were in the field for places on the delegation from the state at large-Governor Longino, Senator Money, R. H. Henry, Senator Sullivan and w. D. Cameron-the three former having been nominated by dissenting faction of the party assembled in state convention, and the two latter were announced as in dependent candidates.
 Returns are arriving slowly from the counties tonight, but the present indica- tions are that Longino Money and Henry have been elected, with the fourth place in doubt between Sullivan and Cameron the chances, however, being somewhat in favor of the latter. In some counties the convention ticket was single-shotted, while in the Fifth and Second districts attempts were made, to single-shot Sullivan and Cameron.
