JURY IS HUNG.
Fate of Thomas Kennedy Hangs Tn
 Balance.

scottsboro. Sept. 21.-(Special)- Since Friday the jury in the Circuit Court. trying the case charging mur- der against Thomas Kennedy. photo- grapher of Holyrood. has been hopc- lessly hung and there seems to be no hope of an arrival on a verdict.
 Kennedy Is charged with the mur- der of q young lumberman. Younts, of Columbus, Ohio, who he killed claim ing that his daughter had been wrong ed by the northerner.
 Kennedy ahs been once convicted and sentenced to ten years Imprisonment, but the case was reversed in the su- preme Court. Younts was said to be highly connected.
 Mrs. Griggs, wife of the assistant postmaster of this place was gather ing beans in her garden Monday morn- ing for dinner. The beans were planted in the corn and the vines run up on the corn stalks. On reaching out her hand to pull the vine down 1t came in contact with something warm and soft and upon investigation she found that three large snakes coiled up in the vines. She nearly tainted but managed to get away. Help was called and the snakes killed Mrs. Griggs is now in bed with prostration. It is thought the extreme dry weather has caused the snakes to come down from the mountain nearby to hunt for water.

Appointed Countx Judge.

Henry Bellinger, who received the nomination at the last Democratic prl- maries for the County Judgeship. was selected by Governor Jennings yes'er- day to take the vacated position, made so by the death last week of Judge Thomas R. McCullagh. who had held the office for more than eight years MT. Bellinger was not an applicant for the position at this time but would have been installed therein in Jan uary. As 1t Is. the appointment came to him yesterday and he got busy at once fixed up his bond received his commission and is now ready to take charge of the office.
 special meeting of the County Commissioners will be held tomorrow night for the purpose of approving the young mans bond and he says the first of his duties will be performed the first day of next week Mir. Bel finger at present Is paying teller at the Citizens National Bank of this city. and will probably hold this posi- tion after being instuIed into the judi cial office.
 The legal fraternity of this city are very much pleased at the decision of the Governor in filling the office with q gentleman who is no novice in the study of law. Mir. Bellinger practiced law in this city for some years.

NAMES NOT DIVULGED.
No Grand Jury List Released by Com-
 missiOners.

Opelika, Sept. 1.-(Special.)- cor respondent of The Columbus Enquirer Sun in today's issue criticises the divulging of the names of the next Lee County grand jury and seems to think that this has been done by members of the Commissioners Court.
 Several members of the court who are in the city today deny positively and emphatically that they have giver such information.
 The names of the grand jurors have not been published in the papers and 1t Is not thought that any of the of f1cials have divulged their names. The Jurors were drawn six months ago and have recently been summoned to at tend the next term of the Circuit Court of Lee County and 1t is probable that Individual Jurors might have stated that they were on the jury, after re- ceiving their summons. This is the method by which such matters usually become public

justice were not all there was to life This other and undiscovered side oi his nature awoke amid the life, the lights, the sparkle of the city. Il came to him at once that there were other things in life besides the tilline of the land intelligNntly and industri ously. The whole vista of human life and activity forced itself upon hin and he regretted the long years oi grinding toll
 But the great awakening did not come for several days after he had be. come satiated with watching the bus. iness movement and the wildness oi the exchanges. He went one evening to the theatre. It was a musical farce or light opera or something of that sort. with a great chorus of attractive girls and plenty of action and dash From the moment Cameron entered the theatre he was entranced and the singing and dancing of the chorus thrilled him until he thought he should faint.
 For the first time in his life the sensual side of his nature was touch ed and Its very repression during all the years added oil to the conflagra- ton. The amusing music, the beauti- full women, the seductive costumes the dNudSlouS uanCeS, the whole atmos- phere Of abandon and invitation envel- oped Cameron's consciousness and fired his imagination as nothing he had ever dreamed of had done before
 The first act left him breathless and incoherent, the second flushed and throbbing. One of the chorus girls in particular. had appeared to him fin adynamic manner. Smaller and less bold than the rest and attired with less exposure of limb and person. she appeared young and innocent beside them and yet all the arts of the mod. este were apparent in her costume dainty and voluptuous figure was sug- gested In manner to make 1t much more seductive than if brazenlv dis. played and the entire get-up bespoke girl.

DESIRE A RULING.
Non-Resident Railway Wants Mortgage
 Tax Exemption.

Non-Resident Railway Wants Mortgage
 Tax Exemption.
 Columbus, Ga., Sept. 21.-(Special.)- If it Is decided that the Birmingham, Columbus and St. Andrews Railway Company, which has filed mortgage for s9,600,o0o in Alabama, is liable for the special mortgage tax in that State the amount of the tax will be s14,400 instead of over s1o0,0o0 as recently an- nounced.
 A tax of Is cents on each $100 of property covered by the mortgage would be $14400 and when this is paid in one county the claim of the State Is satisfied it being necessary to pay the tax only once and not in every county through which the road will pass. The road will go through some seven or eight counties and the combined tax would have been very heavy. It Is un- derstood that the officials of the com pany are inclined to the opinion that they are exempt from this special tax of 15c per s100 and will ask for rul- ing on the subject from the State Auditor at Montgomery.
 An old rife of J. Lamar Chappell of Memphis, Tenn, a brother of Mayor L. H. Chappell, of this city. has just been recovered in an interesting manner

 A year or two after the war Chap bells rife was stolen from his fathers residence in Macon County. Recently Colonel Robert M. Howard of this city, while visiting in Russell County. saw a gun on the stock of which was en- graved the name of J. Lamar Chappell. The rife was in possession of negro who had brought 1t in to have it.re- paired. He mentioned the incident to Mayor Chappell with the result that the rifle after having been lost thirty five years has been recovered. Mayor Chappell will send the rifle to his brother in Memphis. It Is an old fashioned muzzle loading Springfield rife. The Chappells naturally prize 1t highly as a family relic.

HIS TWO NATURES.
BY FREDERICK DE LAPP. (copyright. 1904. By Daily Story Pull

 Col
 Gaston Cameron had come to town for the first time in thirty two years. All these years had been so full or hard work and close figuring that he never found time to visit the great throbbing city of which he had heard so much Of course he had visited the village frequently and had read the newspapers assiduously. and he was not so green to the ways of the world as one might suppose. In fact around about Nashville he was ac- counted an able and astute man.
 His years of toll and self-denial and shrewd application had counted. too, and he found himself in the hey day of young manhood, the possessor of broad acres. productive mortgages and other concrete evidences of wealth.
 And then a business complication arose which made 1t imperative that he visit the metropolis. He was gsaA too, rather than sorry, because his affairs were now in condition so he could be spared from home and he really yearned to see the great things of which he had heard.
 And so he had come to town with all his experience and all his curiosity. And the sights he saw and the emo- tions he felt and the experiences he had turned his life topsy-turvy. The bigness of 1t all-the tremendous deals the importance of what was do~ ing, and the smallness of one individ- ual atom struggling amid all these forces impressed him so profoundly that his perspective became upset a\l he lost much of his self-assertive and dominating confidence.
 Justly to be told he was built on a broader plan than he knew. Brought up by his canny Scotch grandparents. who cultivated only the thrift in his nature. and remaining all his life in the narrow path of a struggling farm CT, how was he to know of the other undiscovered and undeveloped side of his nature. of the warm French blood which came down to him from his mothers ancestors. with all Its imagi- nation, Its artistic perception, its ar- dent sensuaiism?
 How, indeed? And so he had grown to manhood and well into mans es- tate before the awakening came and he realized that hard work and saw Ing and rigid honesty and merciless

The Annual Budgets.

The annual budget of expenses for the different departments of the city government went to the Finance Com mittee of the Council this evening. and the committee carefully shaved down the requests to what the three gentle men comprising the committee thought would be absolutely needed. The re- quest for the Board of Public Safety was for the sum of $53.ooo. while that of the Board of Works was for about half that sum. The Board of Health made a slight increase in the request for appropriation this year, but it is doubtful if the same will be granted The Finance Committee is made up of three well-named watch dogs of the city treasury" and not an item which is regarded as superfiuous and which may be gotten along without. is allow ed.
