@ ANIEL A. GREENE associate nU judge of the Criminal court of O Jefferson county has been on the bench for over two years, having been elected to the position which he now oe- cupies in December, 1900. During his short career as judge none of the decisions he has made have been reversed, though ff- teen or twenty appeals have been taken.
 Judge Green was admitted to the bar in 1866. He engaged in the practice of his profession in Birmingham from that time selected for the bench.
 After graduating at Oxford, Ga.. with the degree of B. A, in 1884, Judge Greene taught school in Tuscaloosa county. In 1886 he received the degree of IL. B. at the University of Alabama and came to Birmingham the same year.
 He is the son of R. M. Greene, presi- dent of the Bank of Opelilxa. Judge Greene was born in Opelika in 1863. In 1890 he was married to Miss Jordan Mor- row of Birmingham, daughter of Dr.. George NJ. Morrow.
 Before he became judge he was coun- se in several important cases. He defend- ed Fannie Bryant in 1889, when she was charged with being an accompllce of flaws in the murder of his wife and two children. The woman received life sem

tence, but was subsequently, pardoned.
 He assisted the state solicitor in the prosecution of Mrs. Clarence Martin sev- eral years ago. She was charged with the murder of her brother-in-law, Ed Martin. Mrs. Martin was acquitted
 Judge Greene has been in politics to sition of chairman of the county demo- dential election that year. He was also chairman of the county Morgan campaign committee in 1900, when Senator .. .an T. Morgan defeated Joseph E. Johnston for United States senator. He was a mem- Der of the legislature in 1S96-97. This is the extent of Judge Greene's active work in political matters.
 Although he has been on the bench for only few years Judge Greene enjoys a rather unique distinction. tie has been connected with the five cases Tn which the defendants have been senteneea to hang for highway robbery. These five are the only ones In the history of the state receiving death sentence for this crime. The first was a negro wonidn whom Judge Greene defended during his career as an attorney. She WAS stntcnced To hang, but Judge Greene succeeded in securing a new trial when ths woman received sentence of thirty years in the penitentiary. With the other four cases Birmingham people are familiar Dur ing the past year four negroes have been tried before Judge Greene on charges ef highway robbery and given death ssn- tences by the jury.
 Judge Greene Is well known In social

}. '. Ford, who owns the Kim
nell gin west of Waxahachie, was
in town yesterday attending court .
He said he and his neighbors, the
Green boys, had fed several ue-
groes during the rainyspell and Just
when it was dry enough for them to
begin picking cotton some one I'M
known to him gave them a scare the
other night by shooting their tents
full of holes. Some of the negroes
narrowly escaped being hit by the
bullets. SO badly terrified were
they that they have left the country
and Mr.. Ford says a great deal of
the cotton they would have picked
will be lost, AS he cannot pick it
himself and it is impossible to en-
ploy other help.
