 The present terminus of the company Is at Brilliant in Marion County. The road will be extended in a northeasterly direc- ton through Marion County to Double Springs, in Winston County.

HEAD CRUSHED TO PULP.
John Klein Meets a Fearful Death al
 Ball Plav


 Gadsden, April 23.-(Special )-News reached here today from Ball Play of the fearful death of John Klein, an en- pioye of the Cherokee Logging Company.
 MT. Klein was train hand on the little railroad which hauls timber to the river for the local mills
 The train had been lcaded and the cars were being coupled up for the trip to the river when the accident occurred. Klein was doing the coupling and on two of the cars the logs protruded too far over the ends for the coIpling to be made The engineer was signaled to back up fast so as to bump the logs back This was done so the logs would not touch when the coupling was made. Klein went Tn between the cars to couple them and the engineer was sighaled to back up easy. This he did but fin some manner klein's head was caught squarely be- tween the smoothly sawn ends of two huge pine logs and slowly crushed to a pulmp. Klein fell to his knees when the engine moved forward and then fell to the ground with not spark of life in his body. Strangely enough the skin on no part of his head was broken.
 MT Klein was middle-aged man and leaves wife to whom he had lately mar ried.
 The Seaboard Air Line has a corps of fifteen or twenty engineers in the field surveying for an extension of that big system from Lock 3 to Gadsden. The o,iSlHoeis were Campeu yesterday at Greensport and there Is no doubt that they are hsaded this way. It is confiden- tially bel~fd that some definite an- nouncemen. of the extension will be made soon and that the Chattanooga Southern will be connected in whatever deal is made. -S
 Paul Croft, charged with manslaughter In the second degree, was fined $50 and sentenced to jail for ten days in the City Court yesterday. Croft shot and killed Gus Mooney near Murryoross by care lessly handling a gun.

Horses and Flowers.

May the annual Horse Show and Flower Parade will take place at Monroe Park, an event looked forward to with great interest. Already a large number of entries have been made for the several events and a spirit of rivalry exists among the expectant contestants. Your representative this morning saw several of the horses which will be paraded be- fore the judges of the contests, among these being Francis Medium, a 7-year- old bay mare, owned and exhibited by A. D. Davis. This beautiful animal is now two-time winner of first prize in the harness and gentleman's rig contests and her owner claims the winner this year will have to beat Francis Medium
 Another bidder for honors will be the
 1-2 year-old chestnut sorrell pacer and trotter, George R., owned by George R. Haas and August 2. Oberhaus. George R., Is a Mobile County raised animal. It is said the flower parade will exceed any of former years and the ladies will leave nothing undone to capture the much coveted honors. The ladies in charge of the event, with Mrs. James K
 Glennon at the head are anticipating a record breaking attendance, with more than double the entries of former years.

Around this shaft of granite, upon the top of which stands a silent sentinel, are many graves, the last rest ing places of men who wore the grey In a cause dearly loved, though lost.
 For many years society known as the Ladies' Memorial Association, on April 26. has made visits to this spot, ac- companied by the veterans of the Con- federacy and State troops. and with ap- propriate ceremonies. placed wreaths of evergreen and garlands of flowers upon sociation are busily engaged in weav- ing wreaths for the coming Memorial Day and their time-honored ceremony this year will be as sweet as those of the 26th or April of years past
 The veterans will lend their aid, as on former occasions, in honoring their dead comrades and in order to have the fall strength of the two camps out. orders pie of the general orders issued by Semmes and Withers Camps:

As the decoration of the graves of our dead comrades is the best evidence of the esteem in which we hold their mem ories no less than of our love for the cause for which they died, there should be a large gathering of the survivors; and this gathering should be greatly augmented on the present occasion since the decora- ton takes place on the Lords Day, a day when all can participate.

whereas the Central, according to the rumors, "got no bales at all" It is al- legged that on compress receipts, the reg uiarity of which are now the subject of investigation, bills of ,ading were issued not been received. Whether these 600 were bales of cotton, which it Is said have not been received. Whether these 600 imaginary bales, whether they are in the present investigation to be accounted for by the signers of the compress receipts or what the outcome will be a matter of guesswork. How the bills of lading were realized upon, whether the cotton was sold or the bills hypothecated in bank or held, are also questions yet to be solved. The railroad is alleged not to have received the cotton for which the bills of lading were issued, and its object is now to ascertain the reason if there was failure to deliver.
 The compress receipts on which 1t is al- legged the bills of lading were issued by the Central were from the compress com pany at Birmingham of which the active member of the shipping firm was presl- dent.
 Was the compress company under bondY' President Egan was asked
 Yes, 1t was under bond of y10,OOO,' he replied.
 6OO bales have bee issued upon irregular receipts Is true the railroad Will not be indemnihed by this bond, for the prob able valus of this amount of cotton would be around $30,o00.
 A savanna exporter is reported to have shipped fifty bales of cotton from Birm- ingham 10 a domestic milI, which turned out l6D pounds short to the bale, or a loss or 5000 pounds. Other mills are looking into their recent receipts to ascertain 1T there are any shortages Tn weight, and If so, the exporters nanalIng the business will prooably soon be advised. Considerable cotton from Birmingham Is afioat, and the shortage in weight. if any cannot be learned until the control iers get hold of It on the other side. The sales of the Birmingham cotton were made locally by several brokers and some OF the cotton IS reported to have been bought direct by the exporters themselves. The next few days promises 10 bring fuller developments and enable all interested to know where they stand
