Wise Seeks Bail.


 In an effort to be released from GUS tody on bond, William Wise. charged with the murder of Elias M. Lathem in the lobby of the Morris Hotel. on April IT, has instituted habear corpus proceedings. which came up before Judge A. A. Coleman. of the circuit court, at 10:30 o'clock this morning. By agreement the testimony taken down by stenographers in the trial of Glen Havis, charged with the same offense, was sub mitted to Judge Coleman. When court was called to order the attorneys for the | State and defense stated that no addi- l tional testimony would be introduced. In addition to introducing the testi- mony of witnesses for the State in the | trial of Havis, the State has submitted the testimony of Burrel Wilksie. an ele- during the preliminary trial before Jus tice of the Peace I. H. Benners. shortly after Lathem was killed. l The State announced that 1t would not offer the testimony of John D. Lathem. | the father of the man who was killed The State also gave notice that 1t would object to the testimony of character wit nesses introduced in the Havis trial to testify in reference to the character of Wise.
 A short argument arose as to the sub mission of the bulky report. Judge Cole man said that it was a lengthy one, and If the attorneys could agree to refer him to the main issue 1t might facilitate matters. It was finally agreed to submit | the report as 1t stood, except in the case of MT. Lathem.
 | Wise was in the court room when court was called to order. His father and mother sat on his left and his wife on his right side. Mrs. Wise was at- tired in white Wise wore a new light blue serge suit. He looked somewhat pale and haggard as a result of several months imprisonment. It is not known. of course, how long 1t will take Judge Coleman to examine the testimony. When he has finished his task the attorneys will be notified and there will be short arguments on 1 both sides.
 | It was expected by many that some additional evidence of some kind on both sides would be introduced, but such will not be the case.
 The trial of Glen Havis was a lengthy and sensational one. He was with Wise when he pulled the trigger of the pistol that meant death to Lathem. Wise and tavis were in the hotel and had talked | to Lathem for over an hour before the | tragedy occurred
 | Upon the preliminary hearing of both men. jointly indicted for the murder of Lathem. both were bound over to the grand jury without bail. On June 18th the trial of Havis began, a severance having been granted in the Criminal l Court.
 The jury convicted Havis of murder in the second degree and sentenced him to serve twelve and a half. years in the penitentiary. An appeal to the Supreme Court was taken.
 Now that Havis has been tried Wise seeks to be federated from the county jail on bond. pending his trial at the September term of the Criminal Court. It is thought that 1t will be several days before Judge Coleman will make a decision as to whether or not he win allow Wise to make bond, as the duty of carefully reading the evidence sub mitted this morning will necessarily oc- cupy quite a while.

 Selma, July 20.
 Hon. E. s. Starr, Representative Of Dai- las County in the lower house of the State Legislature, will in a few days issue a call for. all farmers of the county to meet in Selma on Thursday, Aug. f3, for the purpose of organizing a farmers club or institute to advance agricultural interests and at the same time MT. Starr will ask farmers for instructions in re- gard to legislation for the betterment of the stock laws, the contract labor law and the road law.
 The organization of the farmers club will be in line with the policy adopted by the State of having the farmers brought together In each county in some kind of society. It is one of the duties of the Commissioner of Agriculture to en- courage this and other plans for fostering agricultural interests and disseminating practical information. On August 13 a club will be organized if the call is responded to by sufficient number and the club will be placed upon permanent basis with rules governing the frequency and place of the meetings and making other provisions for the maintenance of the society. Mir Starr thinks the organization will be of the greatest benefit of the county.
 MT. Starr says that ne wishes to learn the opinions and wishes of the farmers in regard to the stock and road laws and in regard to the laws controlling contract labor. All of these have of late caused confusion and trouble and he thinks they should be remedied He believes that the farmers are best qualified to offer sug- gestions as they are most affected and most familiar with prevailing conditions. tions. He will ask for instructions and during the next sitting of the legislature will probably propose new legislation to govern the matters.
 It Is noteworthy that the court of coun- ty revenues has recently adopted a new road law. subject to approval or disap- proval by the Legislature. The new law requires that each citizen between 21 and 45 years of age shall work on the public roads ten days or pay B in lieu thereof; the old law requires that he shall work ten days or pay $5

Will Get Negro College.

The immediate Birmingham district will get the college to be erected by the Freed man Aid and Southern Education Society. an organization of the Methodist Episco- pal Surch. North. and 1t is believed that m the next few weeks the site will be selected.
 Information has been received from Cin- cinnati, the headquarters of the Society. that notwithstanding the fight made on the Birmingham district by the parties working in behalf of Decatur and the extreme northern part of the State, that the committee has seen fit to select the Birmingham district and steps will be taken now shortly to locate the college, It Is intended that as soon as the site can
 be secured that contracts will be given out for the construction of the first buid- ing. All efforts will be pushed in order to use at least one of the buildings to be erected before the end of this year.
 As has been stated before the argI- ment was used against Birmingham that there was much crime in this section. the report of the police department for some time back showing numerous arrests. Other reasons were given against Birm- ingham. The committee of the Freed-
 man Aid and Southern Education Society. which came here, accompanied by one of the big bishops of the Nothern Methodist Church felt favorable towards the Blr-
 mingham district, and their favor landed | the college for this district The white
 and c)lored men at this end of the case
 are now working earnestly to secure a '~oner site and to start the work of actual construction at the earliest possi- be moment. A large sum of money will be spent on this college and it>is not in- tended to fit out the students solely for the pulpit and school teaching work. The
 first expenditure after the purchase of the site will be about s5OOOO for a large build ing. Other buildings will follow later.
