SEEKING MORE EVIDENCE.
Lawyers Think They Can Change Case
 Against Sparks.

Opelika, February 19.-(Special) 1.-The attorneys for c. H. Sparks. the negro sentenced to be hanged here March a, have been here obtaining affidavits which they claim will change the aspect of the case. The evidence is said to consist of affidavits from two negroes, Tom and Matilda Murphy, who testified that they heard the wife of the negro who was murdered by Sparks say that she did the killing. As the woman was sentenced for life for complicity after trial, and as the new evidence is from witnesses who are said to be well known in police court and who have been impeachej. but little credence is given 1t.
 Petitions from all over the county ask ing that the law be allowed to take it's course have been sent in. The officers of the law took Sparks from a mob when he was arrested and they promised the law would be carried out. Sparks $ a dangerous character, 1t is said.
