"The Village Postmaster

In ''The Village Postmaster there is a
most realistic scene showing an old-time
donation party at the Baptist min
ister's, in which the, unfortunate
man gets six -or seven pairs Of
slippers. a live pig and turkey, bags of
beans and potatoes and "only $40 to last
till spring. "An' I did want We to have
that shawl, Hannah" he says, pathetically,
to his wife. Another scene depicts thresh-
Ing day on the farm, with an old fashioned
horsepower machine threshing out the
wheat. The interior Of the village post Of
flee and general supply store, with the
usual loungers sampling the cracker bar
rel and looking for the cheese. is faithfully
reproduced. 1.-The Village Postmaster .

.EX-ALDERMAN KING
10 run FOR BOARD
It's Said That He Will Seek
Complete Vindication from
His People.

E Mr.. John NJ. King, ex-Alderman from
Jefferson Ward. 1t Is stated, Is going to
run for seat in that same body at the
next election, successful canvass to
be taken and construed as complete
vlndIcation Of the charge on which he
was arrested and has twice stood trial
Just which man Mr.. King will oppose
Is mot known.
While actually, In the eyes of the law,
the mistrial OF King, the failure Of the
twelve men to agree, really amounts to
nothing, 1t Is certainly to be regarded
x az a victory for the accused, showing
az It does that there at least existed q
ID strong doubt in the minds Of the jury
n as to the guilt OF the defendant Along
this same line 1t may be- stated that the
Il action Of one jury rarely over affects
the action of another, and. therefore.
p the indefinite result Of the tedious hear
X Ing. should DO taken as no criterion eithor
II one way or the other.
During the progress OF the trial
Messrs. Carter and Meredith filed two
4 bills Of exception In behalf Of King anu
+ against the ruling Of tho court on their
Il pleas of abatement. This IS important,
as 1t signifies beyond the least shadow
of doubt that the famous case VIII be
Z fought to the last ditch, concluding only
with decision from the Supreme Court.
y It will be remembered from the re-
ports Of the trial that when the case

Tense moved to dismiss the charge Of
bribery against the defendant, fling two
pleas In abatement. The first set forth
that the grand jury which found tho
i Indictment had on 1t one man, Mr.. Dab
hey Crenshaw, who was not legally q
citizen Of Richmond, and therefore. the
true bill was not valid. The other
held that the proceedings were irregular
because Mr.. John Winston. the steno-
srapher, was in the Jury-room and heard

was not member. of the Jury.
