JAIL DELIVERY
Eight Prisoners Escaped From Walker
 County Prison

Jasper, June 27.-(Special. )-Seven white prisoners and one colored prisoner escaped from the county jail here last night. The cells were found unlocked this morning and a large hole in the north wall of the jail near a water pipe, which the prisoners used to reach the ground.
 It is the general opinion that some one familiar with the sheriffs office procured the keys and sent them up to the negro prisoner who was on the outside of the cells, or that the negro prisoner first made the hole in the wall and went to the sher- iffs office and procured the keys and lib- erated the other prisoners
 Jasper Musgrove, chalged with murder, and Charles Haynes, charged with rape, were among the number. The other five men were charged with small offenses. Charles Haynes and another party stopped at farm house six miles north about Il o'clock last night and sent word to Sheriff Orear that Haynes would return and give himself up today. Up to this hour no other clue has been obtained.

LIGHTNING PLAYS
 HAVOC AT SELMA Negro Woman Partially Paraly- zed and Dog Killed. RESIDENCE ALSO DAMAGED Bolt of lightning Went Into Cap. Atkins Parlor and Ran Around the Pic
 ture Moulding and Into
 Dining Room
RESIDENCE ALSO DAMAGED

Selma, June 27.-(SpeciaL )-Heavy clouds surcharged with electricity have been pass ing over the city at intervals today, the morning being ushered in with quite an electrical demonstration. Shortly before o'clock there was a clap of thunder louder than the rest, and it transpiTes that the bolt of lightning struck q house on St Phillips street Anna Lamar and Laura Jane Jackson, colored had gone out into the yard to remove a chicken coop in out of the rain. The watchdog, which lies chained under the step, got up from his bed and went as far out as his chain would let him. The flash of lightning came, fol- lowed by the loud clap of thunder, and the two women were seen to fal one rising to her feet and screaming at the top of her voice. Assistance quickly came and it was found that Anna Lamar had been shocked quite severely by the lightning and that the dog was instantly killed.
 Dr. Burwell, who was called to see the woman, stated that the sensibilities of the lower third of the left leg and foot are completely lost, also the lower two-thirds of the right leg and foot The mobility is partially lost in both members. No other part of the body was injured, though the hair and limbs of the woman were scorched, the zigzag course of the lightning being plainly seen on the limbs.
 Laura Jane Jackson was not hurt,
 badly frightened. She says it seemed 70 her that a ball of fire ran up the chain on the dog, which fell over without yelp, and then she knew no more until she found her self on the ground beside Anna Lamar.
 Another heavy clap of thunder came at about the noon hour today, announcing the presence of a bolt of lightning which did considerable damage to the residence of Captain V. B. Atkins on Mabry street.
 defective lightning rod on the north side of the house is responsible for the damage. The lightning came down the rod until it came to the place where the in Sulator was off and then it tore about dozen pieces of weatherboarding loose, and, entering the parlor, ran around the mould ing from which the pictures are hung, turn ing it as black as a felt hat, then switched into the dining room and went up into the ceiling, leaving quite an aperture where it went out Only the cook and the two smallest boys of Captain and Mrs. Atkins were at home at the time, and while they were badly frightened, they did not learn of the damage until several minutes after 1t occurred.

Heavy Damag es From Rain

Heavy rains continue to fall daily through this section of the state, and farm work is still practically at a standstill. The heaviest downfall during the present rainy season here fell during today. The present rainy spell set in through this section on the second day of June, and without ex- ception rain has fallen every day since that date. The Alabama river has over flowed much of the lands in cultivation, and as the rise today is rapid, it seems that all of the lowlands along the banks of the stream will be inundated Farmers are very much disheartened, as the crop prospect is very slender. Planters estimate that they will not make a half crop, should the rains cease now.

MUCH LUMBER BURNS.
Bad Fire Breaks Out in Yard
of SaWnill at
Eland,

Eland, Wis, June 30-[Special.] !
Fire was discovered in the lumberyard
Of w. *. Rideout & Son late yesterday
afternoon. A high wind was blowing at
the time and swept the flames over the
yard, destroying the entire seasons cut
Of about 15O.O0O,000 feet.
While the lumberyard fire was at its
height, the residence Of John r. Perry
caught fire from the sparks and burned
to the ground. Mr.. Perry and his fami-
ly saved only the clothes they had ON.
A couple of freight cars standing OH the
siding also caught fire, but were moved
out Of range Of the flames and saved
with slight damage.
The large sawmill was Oh fire several
times. 1t was saved from destruction by
the hard work of the employees, who
fought and subdued the flames.
The fire is supposed to have caught
from a spark from the smokestack of
the mill
Rideouts' loss is estimated at about
$50 900 and is understood to be nearly
covered by insurance. Perry's loss will be
about $4,000 with $3.50 insurance

ARABIAN EFT dICS.
Eastern Despotisms Leave Ample
Scope for Personal Liberty.

Europeans frequently fail to- UNDER
stand that many Of the worst despotisms
in the East leave ample scope for per-
sonal liberty, and that the effects of their
tyranny fall more often upon the rich
than upon the poorer classes of the pop
uation. Yet such is the case, and i'm no
people is the sentiment of individual Lib
erty of private action and equality be-
tween man and man more highly devel-
oped than among the Arabs. These facts,
and the intense but perhaps not formulat-
ed dislike to the system of Life which we
call civilized, contribute to- the mainte-
nance of the Sultan's empire in Moroc-
co, and render it's chances of permanent
cy more likely than is usually believed
to be the case in Europe.
The Arabs readily enough adolf all the
exterior blessings of OUR progress, as gin,
rum, telephones, arms of precision and
the rest, but utterly reject the essence
of our lives, and hence the difficulty with
which travellers are confronted in jndg-
ing of their real attitude toward our.
selves. This perhaps is the reason which
leads so many writer's to imagine that
the French or any other nation have but
to enter the territory of Morocco. and
to forthwith possess it without difficulty.
Nothing could well be nlore- fallacious.-
