BLIND TIGERS RAIDED.

jackson. Friday was the most ex.
citing day in local blind tigers and
gambling house orioles since those in
stitutions were first established.
Armed with axes, hatchets and other
instruments of destruction the local
police force raided the places and ab-
solutely destroyed everything in sight
that looked like 1t was remotely con-
nected with the sale Of whiskey for
the operation of gambling joint.
The wreckage was pitched out of
windows into the alleys, and behind
many buildings the significant piles
Of debris could be seen. In the gamb-
ling houses and blind tigers no peo-
pie were found, they having somehow
got scent Of the impending danger,
and only small amount of whiskey
and beer was secured.
The Mississippi School Agency has
been formed at this place by F. T,
Raiford, editor Of the School Journal,
and Richard Whitfield of the Office of
the uperiutendenr of education.

LANIER RE-sENTENCED.

Aberdeen. The special term of the
Monroe county circuit court, called
lor the purpose of resentencing Will
liam Lanier, who was to have hanged
fast April for the murder of the Bit
tie boys, but who escaped from Jail a
few days before the time for execu-
tion, convened Saturday,
Lanier was arraigned under habeas
corpus proceedings and, by appoint
ment of the court, H. s. Gilliren
assumed his defense, District Attor~
ney J. W. Barron and W. b. Walker
appearing for the state. Mr.. Gilliren
pleaded that it was not a regularly
organized court, because of the lack
of peti5 and grand juries and other
necessary adjuncts, and that Lanier
was still prisoner of the Supreme
Court, under whose sentence he was
to have been hanged last April, and
whose jurisdiction over him had not
yet ceased. These were overruled by
Judge Sykes and Saturday, January
25, 1909. was fixed for his execution.
An appeal was at once taken to the
Supreme Court which will at least
serve to give this now celebrated
murderer little longer lease of life.
With the decision of the Supreme
Court this case will present the novel
and very unusual spectacle of the
death sentence having been pro-
nouncsd four times on the same man.
