Observers Will Be Sent to Guatemala
 Washington, Sept. 2o.-The Secretary of Agriculture has approved the plan for fur ther studies of the "Kelsep." the boil weevil- eating ant.
 O. F. Cook, who discovered the ant. is in Guatemala and three assistants are now in Texas making preparations to establish the colonies for the winter Two assistants will he sent to Guatemala 10 observe the hahits of the ant during the coming winter and to send more colonies if the latter are required
 It is during the winter season In this country that the cotton crop In Guatemala ia grown. The Secretary states that of the ea colonies already imported. only one has beon lost and that through an accident. The statement that the ants have died off or have been killed, 1t Is announced, are erroneous.

A Beautiful Story.

Tn Persia" said a traveller, they tell story of Jesus that Is beautiful enough to be included in the Bible.
 T heard this story from a youth in Teheran. will repeat 1t to you, word for word, just as l heard it."
 This Is the story that the traveller re- peated
 Jesus arrived at certain city and sent His disciples forward to prepare doing good. walked through the streets into the marketplace. And He saw at the corner of the market some people gathered together. looking at an object on the ground. and He drew near to see what 1t might be. It was a dead dog, win a halter around his neck. by which he appeared to have been drag ged through the dirt; and a viler, 0 more abJect. a more unclean thing never met the eye of a man. And those who stood by looked on with abhor- renee.
 Faugh! said one. stopping his nose. 1t pollutes the air
 How long shall the foul beast of- fend our sightY said another.
 Look at his torn hide, said a third i; one could not even cut a shoe out of It.
 And his ears.' said a fourth, all dragged and bleeding
 "No doubt said fifth, he has been hanged for stealing
 And Jesus heard them. and looking down on the dead creature, He said:
 "'Pearls are not equal to the white ness of his teeth
 Then the people turned to Him with amazement, and said among them selves:
 "'Who is this? This must be Jesus of Nazareth. for only He could find some thing to pity and approve. even in a dead dog and. being ashamed, they bowed their heads before Him. and each went his way"

SHOT IN THE STREET
ONE NEGRO IS KILLED BY ANoTH-
 ER
Summers wilson Turns . Pistol on John Alexander at Corner of Monroe and Court--Alexander Dies
 At Hospital.

Bud Oliver. alias John Alexander. a negro died at St. Margaret's Hospital at II o'clock last night, as the result of two pistol shot wounds in the ab- domen, received from a pistol in the hands of Summers Wilson. a negro, and Wilson Is confined in the county jail under a charge of murder.
 Alexander was taken to the hospital In order to have an operation perform ed to extract the bullets but the sur geons decided 1t was useless to oper- ate.
 The shooting which cost Alexander his life. took place at 12:15 o'clock yes terday afternoon at the corner of North Court and Monroe Streets. and eyc- witnesses to the tragedy declare 1t was cold blooded murder.
 The trouble which brought on the shoot ing is said to have resulted from Wilson striking Alexander's little sister with e buggy whip for using his horse and buggy without permission. Alexander. 1t Is said' went to Wilson yesterday morning and com piained of the treatment his sister had received.
 Just prior to the shooting Alexander and Wilson were walking close together on the west side of North Court street going to- wards Bibb street. When they reached the corner of Monroe street, Wilson exclaimed: Go on. now: don't you follow me any long, CT: if you do. you are going to get hurt before you know it. While talking Will son was holding .ss caiibre Smith and wesson pistol in his hand. Alexander said "I ain't following you" as he crossed Court street. continuing to Monroe street.
 Wilson walked along the street until he got to the corner. when he started in the di- rection of Alexander. So closely was he watching his enemy that a dray came neai running over him. and he darted around the vehicle to the sidewalk. He ran almost into Alexander and without a word fired two shots at him, both of which took ef' feet.
 It is said that Alexander made no motior to draw a pistol any motion to protect himself. and 1t seemed to witnesses that the assault surprised him. The wounded negro ran staggering across the street. hii arm pressed to his side. Friends went tc his assistance. and he was taken to a negro drug store a block away on Monroe street after which he was sent to his home il Watkins alley, between Union. and Riple, streets He was later removed to the hos pital in the hope that an operation woulc save his life.
 Wilson made no attempt to get away ant stood where he until he was arrested by Patrolman Sweeney He taken tc police headquarters. but was shortly after wards turned over to Deputy Sheriff s. s Beiser for confinement in the county jail
 At the time of the shooting. Wilson claim ed that Alexander had a pistol. but non, was found on his person when he wal searched at the drug store.
 Both negroes are known as gamblers ant Wilson has a police record.
 The warrant charging Wilson with as sault to murder was changed to murder The hearing of the case Is set for Sep tember 2sth, before Justice R. H. Jones.
