 burning, but the blaze was extinguish- ed before the department reached the scene and very little damage was done.
 Pending a settlement as to who thu wall belongs to that blew down be- tween the building formerly occupied by the American Candy Factory and the building on Water Street owned by Mrs. John A. McKinnon, the worh of rebuilding the candy factory build ing has been suspended It is thought that the matter will be amicably ad- justed within a few days and that then the work of rebuilding the place will be pushed to completion.
 The two buildings are about 1S0 feet deep. Only part of Mrs. McKinnon' building was two stories high, about high. The candy factory building which was owned by Lloyd Hooper was three stories. The falling of the wall a couple of weeks ago, which mashed in the one-story part of Mrs McKinnon's building and also tore down some outbuildings on the adtoin- ing lot, owned by Dr. R. P. Lockhart is the cause of the controversy.
 Thomas Purvis had contracted with Lloyd Hooper to repair the building formerly occupied by the American Candy Factory and which has been gutted by fire. His figures had been accepted and he had force at work on the building when a wind storm came up and blew down the east wall of the three story building. Of course MT. Purvis could not afford to rebuild this wall and otherwise repair the building for the same figures.
 Mrs. McKinnon and Dr. Lockhart 1t Is claimed wanted damage from MT. Hooper for the injury that the falling wall had done to their buildings, claim ing that the wall belonged to him. It is also stated that Mir. Hooper claimed that the wall did not belong to him, but that it was Mrs. McKinnon's. There the matter Is resting until it Is found out to whom the wall did really belong and who Is responsible for the damage which accrued from the falling wall and who shall pay to have 1t rebuilt.
 Until such a settlement Is reached Contractor Purvis has stopped work on the building. How long the work will be stopped Is not known, but it is thought that the difference will be satisfactorily adjusted within a few days.

On Three Char<e..

Jim Rivers, 8 negro, who recently has been discharged from the United States army on account of chronic sickness, appeared in police court this morning with three charges docketed against him. The charges were for vagrancy. resisting an officer and us- ing profane language in the presence of females. Rivers showed his hon. orable discharge from the army and proved that he had worked some re- gently and the case against him for vagrancy was dismissed.
 But in the other two cases he felt the iron hand of justice and will doubtless remember its touch for many days to come. It, was clearly proven that he had resisted Officer Barker and that he had cursed loud enough to have been heard for two blocks. while ladies were only across the street from him. Mayor Atkins told Rivers that resisting an officer was a serious charge and that lately he had fined several very heavily with the hope that the fine imposed would stop oth- CTS from doing likewise. For resisting an office Rivers was fined $100 or nine ty days on the streets. On the charge of using profsne language in the pres ence' of ladies an additional fine of $46 or ninety days was imposed.
 The case against Eugene Benson for disorderly conduct was dismissed.
 Jim Harvey answered to the charge of running a disorderly house and 8 fine of $25 or fifty days on the street was assessed against him.
 The case against Mary Johnson. charged with vagrency, was dismissed, as it was proved that only last week Mary had been arrested before jus tice of the peace on the same charge and fined.
 The case against Ed Brooks. charged with destroying furniture, was also dismissed.
 Messrs. O. J. Thompson and c. J. Cothran were fined s5 each for an af- fray.

4 SUICIDE AT SELMA
B. F. WILSON PUTS END TO HIS OWN
 LIFE.
We'll Known Attorney Is Found on the Floor of His once and Medical Aid Could Not Restore
 Consciousness.
Advertiser Bureau,
 = -r 0I

Selma, May 30. B, F. Wilson, a well-known lawyer, was found lying on the floor of his of flee unconscious this morning shortly after II o'clock. Phycians were quick ly summoned, but MT. Wilson could not be restored to consciousness and at 2:l0 o'clock breahed his last.
 MT. Wilson came down town as usual this morning and pleasantly greeted all of his acquaintances that he met, and appeared to be in the best of spirits Later in the day to several friends he complained of feeling very bad but his mind appeared as bright and active as usual
 After being on the streets for a while about II o'clock he went up to his of flee on Water Street. over the wholesale whiskey store of M J. Elkan & Co.,, and when next seen he was discovered lying on the floor of his office breath ing heavily. The alarm was quickly given, and several physicians were summoned to his side. who worked faithfully to restore him to conscious ness for about two hours. but were un- successful in their efforts. Shortly af- forwards he breathed his last. It is supposed that the cause for the rash act was despondency and ill., health. Although Mir. Wilson had no very intimate friends 1t has been
  in financial distress. and this together with ill-health is supposed to have led him to take his own life.
 Mir. Wilson came to Selma several years ago from Talladega, where he had been a prominent member of the bar of that county and at one time solicitor of the Seventh Judicial Circuit. Since arriving in Selam he has been very un- successful and received very little prac- tice, although he was a very capable attorney. He was brother-in-law of Col. W. W. Quarles of this city and leaves a wife and two children to mourn his death.
 While Mir Wilson was well-known in Selma and greeted everyone with a cheerful word or shake of the hand, no one can be found who seems to be able to get the immediate facts that sur round his death. He was a quiet and well thought of man, and his sad death comes as severe blow to his many friends.
 After death the remains of MT. Will son were prepared for bSrial and car ried to the residence of Mrs. N. Wood ruff on Union Street, where the fam fly had a furnished room. His house. hold furniture, which had been packed for ystrs was taken out this morning and carried to the depot and shipped to Florence, where the deceased had already secured a house and intended to soon go and begin the practice of his profession.
 The funeral will take place from the residence about ? o'clock tomorrow af- ternoon and will be conducted by Rev. J. L. Gross Of the First Baptist Church.
