ed with the murder of Ethel Reed,

child if alive, would understand the
nature of an oath. The court, how

ed as a serious one. and much in
terest is bein= taken in it by colored

JACKSONVILLE WANTS TEAM.

There is to be an effort made to
get Jacksonville into the Southern
Baseball League for another season.
Correspondence looking to that end
has already been instituted, and
there are prospects that the
scheme will succeed. There are
several reasons why Jacksonville
has good opportunity of
getting into the Southern League an
other year. The paramount reason
for believing that there is a good
chance for her to secure a place in the
league is that the state of Alabama
his passed a law prohibiting Sunday
baseball playing, and this will greatly
interfere with Montgomery and Bir-
mingham, which are members of the
league at present. Montgomery can
hardly make the venture paw. and
Jacksonville may get into her place.
