hut, the two links were always togeth- CT. Tamasa loved but one thing in the world. her daughter Fana. Nothing was too good for Fana, nothing too high to be hoped for her. So Tamasa's keen eyes studied the youth whose gaze followed the link behind her in the cir clings of the endless chain. and the re- suit of the study was made apparent in open encouragement or harsh repu- diation. At the gang plank Tamasa's eyes were always kindly. for Miguel, the scrutinizer of fruit, received 3S cents a day; but Fana's gaze at that point dropped resolutely to her feet, for Miguel as illfavored and morose. In the ships hold Tamasa's good ma ture changed to black looks, while Fanta's gaze rose swiftly and sweet ly and happily. Rafo received only 1s cents day, but he was handsome and blithe-hearted and straightfor- ward.
 Round and round circled the endless chain bearing its stream of banasas from the wharf to the hold, and like alternating belts of sunshine and cloud changed the faces of old Tamasa and youthful Fana as they went from gang plank to hold and hold to gang-plank.
 Under ordinary circumstances one gang plank as amply wide for the load
 
 likeness in the hold. and Fana's per- sistent coldness at the plank had dark ened more and more the tempestuous countenance of Tamasa. until at last, just after they had passed the sullen Miguel, her resentment got the better of her tenderness and she turned with a sharp reprimand.
 But Fana had not yet raised her eyes from her feet, and the consequence of Tamasa's checking the regular mo- ton of the chain brought them togeth- CT and swayed the bunch of bananas from its delicate balance. Fana tried to right herself. but in vain. A mo- ment later there was a loud plash in the water 20 feet below, accompanied by a scream from Tamasa, who was peering down with wild. frightened eyes.
 Miguel was not ten feet away; but his face was sullen with resentment and anger. and he made no move. Then there was a swift rush from the hold and a second plash, and Rafo's head rose to the surface with a merry shout of encouragement
 A rope was dropped from the vessel and even as Rafo's left arm encircled the girl his right hand shot up and

MAY GET ITS COURT HOUSE BACK
 AGAIN.
Supreme Court Decides Against Bay Minette, Baldwin's County Seat in Affirming the Mobile Chan
 cery Court

Interest in the controversy between Bay Minette and Daphne for possess si' n of the court house of Baldwin county was reopened yesterday when the Supreme Court decided case in laN or of Daphne.
 The title of The case was James D. Hand against Gus Stapleton. on an ap- peal from the Chancery Court of Mo bile. MT. Hand is one of the promoters of Bay Minette. Mir Stapleton Is a loyal citizen of Daphne. the pretty l4 tie resort on the eastern shore of Mobile Bay. which was so long the capita! Of the large county of Bald win.
 The Legislature four years ago passed an act pr"r!c!r g for the re- mo val of the court house to Bay the Louisville and Nashville Railroad Company. in the northetn part of the ccunty. Since that time the citizens of Daphne and the lower part of the the county seat to their little town A handsome court house was erected at Bay Minette but the Daphneites went right on fighting in the courts.
 They first attacked the conStitu- tlonality of the act. which was upheld i'y the Supreme Court. Then Mir. Sta rleton and his faithful followers fill d d bill in the Mobile Chancery court al- lcging that the act provided that the court house at Bay Minette was to be built out of the revenue coming into the Baldwin treasury in one single year and that this provision of the act was ignored MT. Hand and his ad- herents demurred to this bill saying that the appropriation for the court house was continuing.
 Chancellor Smith If the Mobile di- vision overruled the demurrers of NKr. Hand. thereby deciding in favor of Daphne. Mir, Hand appealed to the Su- preme Court and the court yesterday affirmed the decision of the Chancellor. MT. Justice Tyson dissenting
 It is expected that MT. Hand and his friends will avail themselves Of every legal point. Just now Daphne has the advantage al law, but Bay Minette has the court house and the records.

 A long line of bending figures were passing up the gang plank into the hold of the vessel, then back by an- other plank to the wharf where they again connected with the line, form ing and endless chain. Each link was a woman. and upon every sloping back was bunch of bananas.
 At the wharf end of the gangplank a man gave a glance at the number of clusters, or hands, upon the punches as they passed and then called out their s;zes in a sing-song: "One-half bunch, one bunch. two, one and a half one. one, two. one and a half, a half one" and another man with a book upan a barrel marked them down. In the hold two men directed the women where to place their fruit. Both of these were conchs-one, a rough, brutal-looking fellow. who merely nodded directions and scowled; and the other a laughing, testing youngster. who gave his orders by springing forward and helping each woman to deposit her bunch In its proper place. UusualIy the women Thanked him with looks or words, some of them adding: You good boy, Rafo." pr Your gal goin smile on you for dis
 
 thank him with looks or words either She was old and shrunken, with covet- pus. suspicious eyes; and when Rafo sprang forward she always met him with angry snarlings and would never allow him to touch her bunch. But not a whit difference did 1t make to Rafo. His song or laugh went on just as lightheartedly as ever. and when her portion of the chain came round again he was waiting. as usual, with his ready offer of help. his ready laugh. and his friendly eyes.
 Just behind the old woman circled a young girl. as young as Rafo, and beau- tiful in spite of the dark face and bare feet and tattered garments, in spite of her bent shoulders with their burden of bananas. She was always that link In the chain, the link behind old Tam asa. her mother: and Rafo never had time for more than one swift glance Into her eyes before Tamasa had depos- Inter her bunch and whirled upon them with her hawklike eyes. And 1t was Just the same on shore, at the Tamasa

Then he whispered something to her. and with quick in- tuition and courage equal to his own, she placed her arms over his shoul- ders so as not to impede his move- ments. and then. hand over hand. he went up the rope until he could swing himself across to the gang-plank. It was a rare exhibition of nerve and mus cle, and the spectators sent up an in- voluntary shout of appreciation-all except Miguel and Tamasa.
 The old woman's face was drawn and tremulous. but the looks she cast upon Rafo were black as ever.
 Come Fana," she whispered. hoarse- ly; we will not work any more today. We will go home and rest.
 But Fana was leaning aga;nst Rafo, smiling happily. Instead of recover ing from fright. she was perfectly calm. Those few moments coming up the rope, borne by the strong. confi- dent Rafo. had been the happiest of her life. And now upheld by his en- circling arm. she did not care If the whole world-and her mother. too were looking.

 how weak she is. And I like it."
 "You-like it." screamed Tamasa, losing control of herself entirely You you 19-cent man. You grinner and jester! Oh, Miguel, come here"
 But instead of Miguel. another man a brisk young Englishman, pushed his way across the gang -plang toward them.
 "Rafo." he called. imperiously Here. quick! I want to see you. I'm in hurry. Oh. here you are." as he saw the group. Well I'm sorry tc disturb you. but every second is pre- cious to me now. I have an imperative summons to England, to settle up ar estate, and may have to be gone two years or more. I want you to take care of my finca until I return. I've had you work for me. Rafo. and know you are perfectly honest and trustwor. thy. What do you say. quick! must get my things ready and take this boat back. You will know how to cut and ship the bananas, and will give you $50 month and pay all the expenses. And, oh yes" as he noticed for the first time the figure encirclet by Rafos arm, this will be a goot time for you to get married. There 1: comfortable house on the plantation you can live in. What do you saw"
 Rafo made him a low bow, showing his teeth. 'Si, senor," he answered we will be married in 20 minutes ant you can leave in 30-as soon as VOL have kissed the bride" And then his merry. infectious laugh rang out, SC heartily that all had to join in, ever Tamasa.

There are A assignments OF error in

to make this charge in regard to the

recit,ng the complaint Judge Hamer
contends as follows:
"All after the foregoing is q mere In.
ference from the facts stated. The
foreg Ding facts charge that the defend
ant made the assault with deliberate
and p%remsditated malice, but they do
not charge that the killing was done
with deliberate aud p~remeditated
malice. Section 8 Of the criminal code,
which defines murder in the first
degree, provides that the 'k,lling' shall
be done 'purposely and OF deliberate
and premeditsted malice The person
who contemplates the making OF an
assault and then determines that he
will make ir, and does make IL, may
not contemplate anything beyond the
assault. II the assault is committed
without excuse or justification he does
it OF deliberate and preme iitated
malice but il a killing occurs which he
did not contemplate il cannot be said
that he deliberated and p~remeditated
