Who was as fair as the fairest fair

But in waiting for a train
On the track she did remain
So long that she grew old and scary.

NEGRO IS SNEAKED
 AWAY FROM MOB
ALLEGED MURDERER OF DETECT I'VE AT PEORIA, ILL, SLIPPED OUT OF JAIL AND ANOTHER LYNcHINe IS AvERTEp.

Peora, Ill, June A.-John Mckay, a negro who killed Detective ". D, Mur- phy last night, was sneaked out of the county Jail through a rear door shortly after noon today A carriage was walt ing and the prisoner was taken to train for Galesburg, There Mckay will be imprisoned until triai. \
 In the early part of the evening a crowd gathered in front of the county jail and 1t became evident that an at tempt would be made to force an en- trance. State Attorney Teffet and Cir cult Judge Green addressed the crowd, telling them that a special grand jury would be summoned immediately and the trial would be held as soon as possible. In order to convince the mob that Me- Ray had been removed. a committee of six members of the mob were permitted to search the building. During the morning several negroes who were con- fined in the jail for petty offenses were removed to the workhouse in order that no mistake might be made if the jail was broken in by the mob. After hear ing the report of their committee that Mckay was not In the jail, the mob dis persed.

ADJUSTMENTS.
At the RIIou.

The Joseph Kilgore company will pre- sent new piece tonight. It is to be "The Late Mir. Brown" a comedy which 1t Is believed will prove even more pop ular than An American Citizen" This piece was substituted for Lost "A Hours' because the management thought it would prove better for the last por- ton of the week, while Lost "A Hours' will serve better as an opener for next week.
 The principal parts will fall to Mir. Kilgour and pretty Miss OBrien. Prob ably no two actors have ever spent so short a time in Birmingham and become such favorites. The unusual talent and beauty of Miss O'Brien, united with her excellent stage appearance, is partially the cause of this, and Mir. Kilgour's ex- cellent interpretation of the part he had in An American Citizen" Is the cause of the rest.
 There have never been an actor and an actress who seemed better suited for each other than Miss O'Brien and Mir. Kilgour, and when the summer season to their respective companies 1t will seem a pity to separate them. If present plans are carried out 1t is more than possible that they will head a company to play the Wessl Circuit next summer.
 Miss Gibbons will have an excellent part tonight. and one which will tend to make the complications of the piece more intricate therefore more humorous Miss Hayden. Miss Hanlin and Miss Ford are also to appear in parts which will give them as much, if not more chance than they had earlier in the week.
 There will be a matinee Saturday.

HOPES TO INDUCE
 CONGRESS TO ACT
CONGRESSMAN THOMPSON WORK ING UP A MOVEMENT THAT HE THINKS WILL RESULT IN OPEN ING UP THE coosA.

Congressman c. W. Thompson was in Birmingham yesterday on his way home from Gadsden, where he has been in con- ference with Congressman Burnett and Col. Patrick Lay, chairman of the Coosa River convention, in regard to calling a convention to meet some time before con- gress convenes, either at Wetumpka or Montgomery, to devise the best way of se- curing an approprition for the opening of the Coosa. It will be remembered that the bill for this improvement was defeated In committee in the last session of con- gress.
 Captain Andrews. in charge of the sur vey which was ordered to be made, has submitted report showing that the work can be done for $6000.000, which is less than one-third of the amount which Chairman Burton of the rivers and har- bors committee said the improvement would cost. This has encouraged the friends of the measure, and so 1t has been decided to hold a convention. to which delegates will be selected to repre- sent every section of Georgia and Ala bama through which the Coosa river passes. Senator Morgan and Senator Pettus of Alabama and Senator Clay and Senator Bacon of Georgia will be invited to be present, and 1t is also proposed to have the members of the rivers and har- bors committee on hand If possible.
 Congressman Thompson Is very hopeful Of inducing congress to act.

JUDGE WHATLEY
 RESIGNS OFFICE
ACTION IS RESULT OF CHARGES OF IRREGULARITIES MADE BY EXAMINER sEpRERRY AFTER AN INSPECTION.

Ashland, June 24-(Special)-It has just become known here that Judge M. W. Whatley, judge of probate of Clay coun- ty, on last Saturday mailed his resigna- ton to Governor Jelks. His resignation is the outcome of the examination or State Examiner Sedberry, which, accord- ing to MT. Sedberrys report, shows many Irregularities In the administra- ton of the affairs of the office. MT. Sedberry was here some two or three weeks ago and made an examination of all the affairs of all the officers, and in his report on Judge Whatley charged, as stated heretofore, many Irregularities. and especially in the matter of distribu- ton of confederate pension warrants to which report Judge Whatley replied through the Montgomery Journal and the local paper, the Standard, charging Ex- aminer Sedberry with discriminating against him, asserting that no such ir- regularites as those suggested by the examiner really existed and that the matter was political.
 Examiner Sedberry returned to this county on last Thursday, stopping first at Llnevilie, and stating that he had come back for the purpose of more thor oughly looking Into the matter Of pen sions. The news did not reach here as fact that the examiner was in the county until last Friday evening. He Is now here issuing subpoenas to parties to ap- pear before him on next Thursday at which time he will take evidence in the matter of pensions It is claimed by the examiner that Judge Whatley has endors- ed and drawn money on the warrants Of parties who have been dead, some as long as three years and that these and like Irregularities run up Into the seyen- ties.
 Judge whatley war not in his office yes- terday, and 1t was said that he had not been there since Saturday, leaving here soon Monday morning. It is asserted that he has gone out in the country look Ing after some mineral interests. Just what will be the outcome of Examiner Sedberrys investigation is not easy to sur mise
 Judge Whatley's resignation as 1t stands does not take effect until August 1, so the governor. if the matter remains in this state, will be in no hurry in making the appointment
 Judge Whatley was elected judge of probate Tn 1898 as a populst, but has since aligned himself with the republican party.

 He Was Sworn In.

New York, June A.-Former Congress- man Driggs was indicted by the federal grand Jury in Brooklyn today. He ap- peared before Judge Thomas and gave ball.

 To the first two indictments MT. Driggs pleaded not guilty, reserving the right to plead later to the others, which contain sixteen counts each. after his lawyer had read them.
 MT. Driggs refused absolutely to com ment upon his indictment. He had previ- ously admitted, however. receiving a sal ary of s12500 from the Brandt-Dent conn pany for introducing It's machines, but claimed that the work he did for the company was done before he was sworn in as congressman, but after his election. and declaring that he had done nothing to which the government could object.
 The indictments were found under sec tions I'll and 172 of the Revised Statutes of the United States, which provide for the punishment of any person receiving emoluments while in the employ of the government
 MT. Driggs was before the grand jury today preceding the finding of the indlct- ments.
