TO BE MUSTERED
 OUT NEXT MONDAY
co. A, WooDLAWN LIGHT MEAN. TRY, A. N. 0, GOING OUT OF SERVICE - MOVEMENT TO OR GANIZE NEW COMPANY.

Company A, woodlawn Light infan- try, Third regiment, A. N. C., will not be mustered out of service until Monday night of next week, owing to the failure of the Warrior detachment to send their equipment to Birmingham, as ordered.
 The company cannot be mustered out until all the equipment is in the hands of the company quartermaster sergeant, ready to be delivered to the regimental quartermaster when the company Is mustered out
 The mastering out of the company was ordered some time ago. The orders were sent to Capt. w. E. Gardner. quarter master of the Third regiment. and he was instructed to muster the company out as soon as possible. It was at first announced that the company would be mustered out a week ago, but 1t was postponed until tonight in order to get the Warrior detachment equipment; and 1t is again postponed, awaiting the equipment.
 The mastering out will take place in the armory at Woodlawn. Orders have been issued to Captain Gardiner to mus ter in another company in the Birming- ham district, but where that will be To- cated Is still in doubt
 Local regimental officers are in con ference frequently as to the best place to organize the company but they refuse absolutely to make any statement as to what they will probably do.

kREss STORE RUReLARIzED.
Police Think That Skeleton Key
 May Have Been Used.

The Kress five and ten-cent store was burglarized Saturday night and about s2O in money was taken from the cash draw CTS of the registers scattered throughout the store.
 Although the police have made a thor ough investigation of the store they have been unable to discover any way by which the burglar entered or left the store It was at first supposed that some negro had been locked up when the store closed and that he proceeded to rob the place after the lights were turned off. If any one was locked up they left the building without leaving the slightest trace of their escape
 The police look on this as a rather sus- picious circumstance ins connection with the robbery, as they claim that 1t was hardly possible for any one to enter or leave the store without leaving some thing to show the means employed. It is thought possible that skeleton key was used

BATTERY LEAVES TONIGHT.
Brandon Light Artillery Going Into
 Camp at Mobile.

The Brandon Light artillery will leave tonight for Mobile for the annual en- campment of the artillery branch of the Alabama National Guard. The battery will be in charge of Capt. Ed. F. Smith, and 1t Is probable that several other of fcers will also go into camp.
 This battery expects to have more men in camp than any of the other batteries. It is probable that about fifty men will leave here on the train tonight
 Battery D is the youngest organization in the military of the state, and 1t has always made an excellent showing. The officers and men are anxious to eclipse any thing else in the service and espec- icially the artillery branch of the serv- Ice.
 This will be the first encampment that the battery has ever attended as it was organized last year too late for the an- nual encampment. Three of the cannon which the company received when it was mustered in will be taken to Mo- bile, and a special baggage coach has been provided to take care of the guns

SHOULD FRAME THE VERDICT.
Judge AIston's Censure of Madison
 County Jury is Severe.

Huntsville, August 9.-(Special )-F'ol- lowing the reading of the verdict of ae- quittal in the murder case of Jesse Dur ham Saturday afternoon. Judge Alston of the Circuit court severely censured the jury for communicating to the pub lie the sense of the verdict before it had been read in court. He said this was shocking to him and would not be coun- tenanced in the future. Touching upon the acquittal, the judge said:
 If the plea of selfe-defense which in this case was a more shooting under ap- prehension of danger, Is to be as easily maintained before the juries of this country as was this defense, then hu- man life will grow even cheaper in Mad ison county than it is today After agreeing upon that verdict that you have just rendered, and before leaving your jury room. you should have written out a license to the red-handed manslayer, informing him that it was not against the laws of this county for man to shoot down his fellow man, if he could get up the slightest excuse that he ap- prehended danger to himself from the party slain You should then have framed this and hung it upon the walls of your court house, that all might know that it Is a mere travesty upon justice to try to bring the guilty manslayer to jus tice in this county"
 Judge Alston's words were prompted by the fact that in the past few years there have been numerous homicides in Madison county and no convictions have ever followed. However in the Durham case, public sentiment has always been with the prisoner and it was generally felt that he should have been discharged immediately upon his acquittal of the murder of Frank Blackwell a charge exactly similar to that upon which he was acquitted Saturday except that in the last case the man who met death at his hands was John Scott
