SUPERIOR COURT
MEETS MONDAY
=
REGULAR DECEMBER TERM WILL
BE CONVENED BY JUDGE
DART.
MANY CASES TO BE TRIED
Both Criminal and Civil Dockets Are
Well Filled With Cases and the
Session Promises to Be an
Interesting One.


Der term, Monday morning at 10
o'clock, Judge f. Willis Dart presid-
ing. This session of the court prom
ises to be a very interesting one,
The civil docket will be disposed OF
first, and will be taken up as soon as
the court has been organized. 1t is
thought that the court will finish ala
civil cases by the end of the week, as
no contested cases except sucn as the
lawyers may agree upon will be
heard
TWO Murder Gases.
During the session two murder cases
will be tried, and both of them nave
attracted considerable interest in the
county, and a large crowd will doubt
less be present to hear both OF them
argued ass.s
One of these cases is that of Sam
Story, the white man, who is charged
with the murder of Hamp. Shriyer,
also white, which occurred few miles
from the city little over year agm
Story was tried at the May term OF
the court and his case was bitterly
fought by both sides. The jury after
being out for a number of hours, could
not agree and mistrial was declared
in The case.
Attorneys for the defense claim that
Story shot Snriver in self-defense ana
much OF the evidence introduced at
tae last trial carried out the state
ment, but still there was some
nesses for the state whose testimony
was different and the jury was unable
to reach a verdict
For Numbering Child.
The other murder case is that OF
Bessie Gale, the Fancy Bluff negress,
who is charged with numbering little
child at taat place a lew weeks ago.
Her case is not on the dockets yet as
the grand jury has not had a chance
TO return true bill, but this will be
among the first work OF the body and
the case will be tried during the pres
.ent session.
Other Cases.
Besides these three are a number OF
other interesting cases, both criminal
and civil. to be tried during tne term.
1t is hoped that all the work can be
finished in two weeks, but the court
has a big batch of business to trans
act and the session may extend for a
longer time
