Selma, Aprfl 26.
 Some excitement was caused on Broad Street late this afternoon by a Mormon elder critisizing Rev. Mir. Boswell of the Christian Church. Mr. Boswell had writ ten circular refuting some of the doctrines that the Mormon elders are preaching. They were being distributed by boy who handed one of the circu- lars to Mormon. who in turn handed it to the one who was talking. He read it and then attacked MT. Boswell, who was in the crowd. Mir. Boswell dis claimed any intention of being discourte- ous to the Elder. but told him he had explained some things that the Mormons had left unexplained. The Mormons say they will reply to Rev. Mir. Boswell 6 circular.

Citizens Were Aroused,

Last night between il and i2 o'clock loud screams and yells from female throats aroused the citizens in the neigh borhood of Riverview. Policeman Philen attracted by the screams. went to the scene as fast as possible, thinking that a riot was going on or some one was being murdered. When he arrived he found Justice David Lloyd on the ground, Mrs. Lloyd was quite i'll and MT. Lloyd was trying to suppress the disturbance. because it annoyed his sick wife. It all came about from the fact that three negro women had gotten religion, as they term it. and were shouting and screaming at the top of their voices. The screams could be heard all over the western portion of the city and the slumbers of several thousand persons were broken hy the vigorous manner in which these colored women manifested religion.

Curing A Balky Horse.

An expert states that the voice of balk-
ing in horses is almost invariably caused
by improper breaking and handling of the
animal while young. 1t is only high
strung and ill-tempered horses that balk;
and these are handled with more success
by humoring and patience than by severe
measures, which generally make matters
worse. 1t is almost impossible to follow
rules in case of this sort What will sue
coed in one case is useless in another, so that
a driver must exercise good Judgement
sshorse sense LIN handling case A
very good treatment is to watch the ANNA
closely in places where it would be likely
to balk, and driver should say "Whoa,
then get off and loosen or pretend change
the harness in some way; also take up a
foot and tap the shoe with stone
Spend few moments leisurely in this way,

The beauty of the coloring in the broken

The nearest railway station to the won

the past year way station has been es-
tablished at Adamanna, after Adam Han

who spends his time plotting people to the
forest.
The trip from the railway to the forest
is without interest, unless one can find in

have fallen and petrifed in years gone by
and been covered up by the sands and lost.
The surface of the desert is constantly
