AN UNNATURAL MOTHER.
Mrs. Graw Fined for Compeliingg Lt-
 tie Daughter to be Immoral.

tie Daughter 10 De 1muAVNNse
 A remarkable story of woman's de- pravity was disclosed in the Recorder Court yesterday afternoon when Mrs. John IL Graw of 11S 1-2 Montgomery street was arraigned for forcing her I3-year- -old daughter, Amanda Foster' to enter houses of i'll fame.
 Several negro women of well-knoWn tlisreputabIe character testified that Mrs. Graw had visited their houses with the little girl and had told them to admit her to their houses and to re- ceive company there. One Of these women notified the Police Department some weeks ago that the girl had come to her house applying for admission and the police have been on the loohout for the girl.
 Friday night it was learned that the girl was at the house of Lizze Judkins, a negress. on South Holt Street. Police Captain w. Fl. Taylor sent Special Off, ficer Ea w. Jackson to the home of Mrs. Graw- to notify her of her daughters s whereabouts and ask if she wished the police to arrest the girl and take her home. She refused any assistance to the police and gave them to understand that she did not care for interference in the matter.
 Captain Taylor then swore out a war rant charging Mrs. Graw with viola tion of Section 5320 of the State Code and she was arrested re.. ",t.
 Oficers were also dispatched to the Judkins woman's home to bring the girl to bodice headquarters where she was placed in the custody of her mother.
 The little girl testified in a straight forward manner to the conduct of her mother. Mrs. Graw did not make a statement.
 After the evidence in the case had been heard. Recorder Arlington fined the unnatural mother $50 and costs and sentenced her to six months imprison- ment in jail. On the legal protest of the defendants counsel. however. he withdrew his decision in order to look more fully into the law, saying he would render his decision in the case Monday afternoon.
 When the decision of the court was understood by the child she broke down and wept. It was one of the most pitt full scenes ever witnessed in the Re- corder's Court.
 Mrs. Graw was released on bond, pending the decision of the Recorder and the child left the court room with her mother.

 Gadsden, Oct. 29.-(Special. "A bad wreck occurred on the Louisville and Nashville in the western part of the city this afternoon. Two freight trains came together head-on. No one was hurt, but tn etwo engines were wreck ed. one being almost demolished. The tive trains met at the curve on the main line about 200 yards from Twelfth Street One was the regular freight from Attalla to Anniston. The train had five loaded and five empty cars and a caboose. The local freight was in charge of Engineer W. G. Prindle, and had five cars of coke and three empties.
 The regular freight train was on time and was running twelve miles an hour. while the local was said to have been running fifty miles an hour. Engineer Carol saw the local just as he round- ed the curve. He reversed his engine, which came to a standstill about ten feet from the local, which was com ing at a fast speed. Engineer Carroll and Fireman Dismukes jumped. as did Conductor Jeffries, who was on the cow catcher. All barely got off before the two engines crashed together.
 The crew on the local jumped and no one was hurt except a negro fireman who was slightly bruised. The two en- zines were wedged together firmly. the cowcatcher on both being splintered, A tender was standing on one end while one of the cabs was thrown backward. The wreck will cost the L. md N. $20,000.

SHOT AT CAPTAIN WALKER.
Mysterious Missile Entered Vehivie Il
 Which he Was Riding.


 A bullet or other missile smashed into a hack occupied by Captain B. W. Walker. Republican candidate TOT Congress in the Fifth District, at i o'clock Hast night.
 The hack was a few yards from the Montgomery residence of captain Walker at the corner of Martha ana Goldthwaite Streets. The police are of the opinion that the missile was bullet from a Flobert or air rife or stonesshot from a rubber sling, They reached this conclusion after 1nVesu- gating the occurrence and finding that no one had heard the report of gun or pistol Neither Captain Walker nor the negro hackman heard q report nor did any resident of the neighborhood hear the stiffness of the early night broken by the report of a fire arm. If the missile had been a spent bullet fired by accident or by some roysterer. orsif it had been fired by design the shot would have been heard by some one in the neighborhood.
 Special Officer F. w. Jackson, who investigated the affair with Mounted Patrolmant John McDade said that he believed the missile was either Flo bert rife built or a buck shot from an air rife or rubber sling. He called upon a number of residents of that section of the city and none of them had heard gun shot
 Captain Walker returned last night from the Fifth District. where he has been campaigning. At the depot he took hack. of the Haygood line The hack was No. 14 and was driven by Mitchell Johnson, a young negro man. It was modern rubber tired vehicle with glass sides. The hack was on Goldthwaite Street three doors north of Captain Walkers residence where the missile smashed into 1t. It enter ed the hack on the right side directly over the front seat Particles of glass were dashed over Captain Walker, who was occupying the rear seat.
 The course of the missile was de- f1ected, that Is it passed out the hack at lower point than 1t entered. It's course was also diagonal indicating that it's source was bit in front of the hack. The missile passed out the hack over the door. The glass door was lowered from the top to the lower wooden half and the missile met no obstacle in passing out.
 The hole in the glass was rather eleanly cut, there being only two cracks radiating from it.
 Captain Walker directly after the shooting notified the police department

Vests MinstreIs.

Audiences at both matinee and night performances yesterday of William H. Vests Minstrels at the Montgomery Theatre witnessed a peculiar exhibition of minstrelsy The pecullarity exists in the fact that the first part, which in the real sense Is the true minstreIsy of the modern minstrel companies was poor and the olia, or vaudeville, after part was of unusual excellence.
 The audiences left the theatre satfs- lied with the performances, but the feel ing of satisfaction was due to the olio and not to. the first part. This condi- tion did not exist when William H. West, one of the earliest and foremost of American minstrel opponents, was alive and at the head of his minstrels. If MT. West was here, 1t Is most prob :. able that he would make some radical changes in the performance. He would have frst~class minstrel show in stead of a sterling vaudeville. bill for the entertainment of the hosts of his admirers, who realized the loss to the black face world when he died.
 One feature only shone bright in the first part That was the solo of John P. Moore, a vocalist who charmed the audience in his rendition of a ballad, The More l See of Other Girls the Bet ter I Like You" Both voice and song
 
 tone voice of MT. Moore being one of the finest heard in Montgomery this season. He sang, with fine expression and with grace and ease.
 The other vocalists were only fair in solo work but an octette brought great harmony out of the song, Aloha and was encored repeatedly.
 Tom Mack, the star end man of the show, violated all tradition of black face comedy by wearing a mustache He also lacked ability as an end man. As monologue man in the olio he was very good and showed clearly that he was out of his sphere as an end man. He convulsed the audience with some clever parodies
 Lavalett Brothers on rings and par allel bar. showed wonderful strength and cleverness. Their feats of strength and acrobatic work were enthusiast. cally applauded.
 The great Kartelli, justly designated on the program as "The King of the Wire" performed wonderful stunts on the slack wire. He Is undoubtedly a marvel and alone in his class. He has been seen here before in his act. but he has improved greatly since his last appearance here.
 McDevitt and Kelly, eccentric buck and wing dancers, are as good as any dancing team that ever came to Mont gomery. The audience just refused to let them stop. They undoubtedly get much money for their act which is a headliner in the olio.
 Major Smith. in turning the Devil Stick. showed Montgomerians probably the best exhibition of the kind ever seen.
 Something was wrong with the act of Cyclus who rides on a bicycle around a perpendicular track as he tried sev- eral times to do his whirl and failed.
