From China to Georgia.

R. E. McLendon, who was at the Wind eor Hotel yesterday, was nearing the end Of a long journey. his destination being Rome, Ga.
 Mir. McLendon was en route from China. where he had been stationed several months as a soldier in the 9th Cavalry, United States army.
 He started from Yangstun, Chna. and From Taku. China, he sailed to Manila, being fourteen days on the trip. MT. Mo Lendon sailed from Manila to San Fran cisco and was twenty-eight days on the trip from Manila to Montgomery.
 MT. McLendon said he had been in the military service about four years. being only recently mustered out and was en route to his home in Rome.
 He had with him numerous curious and relies including some arrow spears.
 Electric Railroad to Tal1adega.
 A recent press dispatch from Talladega speaks of the probability of an electric railroad being built from Montgomery to Talladega through the rich agricultural and mining districts of Montgomery, FL more, Clay and Coosa Counties.
 This could be done no doubt by utiliz- ing the power at Tallassee and making the route so as to avoid the mountain ous portions of these counties and there can be no doubt that 1t would be paying investment.
 The territory through which the sug- gested line would run Is without railroad facilities whatever. Farmers are now compelled to haul their cotton fertilizers for miles distant and over rough roads, mado worse by indictment weather. Acres of lands, rich in timber and in minerals, lands which would produce the staple products of the agricultural world lie deserted and uncultivated. A territory which Is now thinly populated would be traversed by this railroad route.
 This condition would be greatly improv- ed by such & venture. With means of transportation farmers would populate and cultivate these lands, gaining the ad- vantages thereof and wonderfully en- hancing the interests of the State Rich soil along the banks of creeks and rivers. the most productive of all, would be cul- tivated and fine crops would be made.
 Small towns would be built on the road, making nearer markets for the planters of the different sections.
 No county in the State has brighter mineral prospects than Clay and the pro- posed route would enter the heart of this section.
 From Jackson's shoals on the Coosa River near Talladega more power could be obtained and the line could be run to Anniston and Jacksonville.
 This line would cover the only section in Alabama which has practically no rail- road facilities and which merits the same as much as any other part of the State a territory wherein abounds "the fat of the land"
 At least four good towns would also be greatly benefited: Montgomery, Tal- ladega, Anniston and Jacksonville.

LEE wEIaLE ON TRIAL
Arraigned in Texas on Charge of
 Murdering His Wife.

Murdering His Wife.
 Anniston, March 26.-(Speclal )-Lee Weigle, charged with the murder of his bride nee Miss Marion Quinn, is on trial at New Boston, Texas.
 Yesterday was consumed by the de- fense in an argument for continuance which was overruled by the presiding judge and the case went to trial today. A special venire of 1l0 men has been sub poenaed for the case and the trial will be before Special Judge Turner.
 The trial of Lee Weigle will recall the death of former Annistop woman. The couple were married here one Friday af- ternoon and the following Tuesday came the intelligence from Arkansas that the bride of four days had been found dead in Texarkana hotel with her throat cut from ear to ear and the man was found still alive but his death was momentarily expected. By good attention he was re- stored to health and Is now on trial for tho deed.
 Miss Quinn, the young woman mur- dered, had lived the larger part of her life in Anniston and was popular in the city. Her remains were sent here ard entered in the family lot at Hillside Cemetery. A. II. Quinn, a brother of the deceased. is now in New Boston at tending the trial.
 NJ Pierce, a member of one of the City Court petit juries. was sentenced to one day in jail by Judge Thomas w. Coleman this morning for appearing for duAr in on intoxicated condition.

He appeared in an intoxicated condition again this morn ing and was called from the jury box by Judge Coleman. who instructed the Sheriff to place him in jail for one day. Pierce immediately began serving his sen tence.
