FOUR NEGROES IN JAIL.
Charged With Being Implicated In the
 Murder of Two Women.

Four negroes are now in jail accused of being implicated in the murder of the two negro women in a section of the city known as Mule Ear.
 The coroner's jury finished its in- vestigations yesterday, and as result Frank Yates, Maggie James and Bob Carter are in jail. Charley Altman is also wanted. Altman and Yates are the husbands of the two dead women.
 The investigation developed no eye witnesses to the tragedy, but 1t was snown by number of witnesses that Charley Altman had made repeated threats to kill his wife and the Yates woman if his wife remained away from him. He was also seen in the neigh borhood of the house shortly before the tragedy.
 Frank Yates, husband of Ella Yates, was on the stand before the jury He denied taking part In the crime, testi- flying, however that he had heard All man threaten to kill the women.
 Yates, Carter and Maggie James all lived in the same house with Altman. and are supposed to have had knowl- edge of the contemplated crime before it's commission
 every effort is being made to locate Altman.

Shreveport Won.

Shreveport, May 25.-(Special.)- Sample was too much for Birmingham today. The big twirler held the visitors down to one hit until the ninth inning. During this time only two men reached first base. Moss, the first man up in the initial in- ming, hit safe and Gettinger in the third, who reached first on Weikart's error.
 The visitors had a chance to score iii the ninth Wilhelm hit safe, but was thrown out at second on Moss hit to third, sMoss reaching first on the choice. Moss was forced at second on Leidys hit to O'Rourke. Veitch hit safe and LeidyL went to third. With first and third occu- pied and two men out, the best Gettinger could do was to fly out to Bammert. Sample was steady throughout, allowing only three hits and not giving base on balls or hitting a batsman.
 Wilhelm twirled a great game and would have won only for the local pitcher and the great support he received. The Birmingham boys are playing great ball, especially the little third baseman, Mauch. Sullivan, the right fielder. is a star. Montgomery's work in center was easily the feature of the game. He rob bed Moss, Veitch and Leidy of three baggers by marvellous running catches.
 The score.

 The Secret of Pure Blood.
 No one can be troubled long with in- digestion and have pure blood, for, how ever careful one may be in the selection of proper food, if it is not properly di- gested it will not furnish the blood with pure materials.
 For this condition Peruna is a nev F. falling remedy. It cleanses the bloc correcting digestion, and gives toI the whole system by increasing th' tritive value of the food. "Spring fe' as it is sometimes called, which proc a tired-opt, sleepy feeling, and inat to do much mental or physical wor the result of sluggish digestion, an blood medicine will be of any use ever unless it is able to rectify the paired digestion. The great popult that Peruna has is due to the fact tn all such cases fiat once corrects digel and enriches the bloc purifying this very important sour that vital fluid.
