 Dadeville. May 10.-(Special. 1.-The preliminary trial of Adolphus Golden, charged with shooting the Wessrs, Welden about three weeks ago, commenced before Judge G. J. Sorrell yesterday, and is still in progress. There are about seventy-five witnesses in the case and it will probably take three days to dispose of 1t. The evil dence so far Is very conflicting and 1t is impossible to tell much about the actual facts.
 Alf Berry. one of the best known ne- gro citizens in Tallapoosa County, died At his home near town last Saturday. Ali was a negro of unusual intelli- gence and had a great many friends among the white people. He voted the Democratic ticket all of his life and was never arrested o= accused of any crime.
 Testimony in the case of the Talla- poosa County Bank against the estate of the late F. A. Vaughan, is being taken before the Register in Chancery here, preparatory to a trial of the cause St the June term of Chancery Court. This 10 one of the most important cases ever tried In Tallapoosa courts. there being a large amount of property in Volved in the litigation.

AT CASINO THEATRE.
New BnI Win Be Presented There
 Tonight.


 Tonight.
 If the company of actors at the Casino Theatre maintains the standard of excel leuee set by the production of The Sins of Society,"" it's popularity with the summer theatre-goers of Montgomery will increase with each performance.
 ''The Sins of Society,"" which Is really an adoption of The Charity Ball. is strong drama, of intense situations-a play which is above the level of repertoire companies This enhances the compliment paid the actors in saying that it's well balanced pre- sentation was beyond expectations.
 Miss London. statuesque blonde young woman who knows how to wear her e1- auisitely fashioned gowns, deepened her hitherto good impression. She reads well and Is altogether capable.
 The other members of the company were satisfying. but one remembers most of all the artistic character bit supplied by Mir Dawson as Old Betts He brought the loyal and charitable old servant with a penchant for chess, 0 ready understanding and he invested him with life and interest
 Tonight the company will present "A Romance of the Blue Ridge" which is deseribed as a sensational melodrama. An- nouncement was made last night that Henry Hall Wizard, the leading man of the com many. would appear for the first time to- night and that speciaities would be in- trodueed
 The excellent music provided by the Ca sino Theatre orchestra Is well worth the cooling ride to the park these suItry even ingA

Livingston, May 10.--lspeciaI l--Ths spacious pavilion at the A. N. College was packed last night at 8 o'clock to witness the calesthenic and elocution- ary exercises. The exercises were chiefly by the teacher and pupils In elocution and physical culture. The accomplished teacher, Miss Layexe Huffman. gave a number of readings being called back twice by the delight- ed and enthusiastic audience. Her ren- dering of ~Old Hickory" and "Jefiiefs Wedding Trip" especially moved to a high pitch of enthusiasm the old and young alike. None who heard her wi1l question her mastery of elocutionarT expression.
 The May Pole Drill. the 'sBonnek1 DriIr' and the Scarf Drill" were exe~ cuted by the young ladies of the physi- cal culture class and the audience waa delighted. The beauty and grace of movement gave unmistakable proof of faithful and skillful training.

pulse of the Federal troops at the ex- plosion of the Crater, and was in full view of the brilliant charge of Cor don's gallant corps upon Fort Sted- man, almost the last expiring struggle of the Confederacy.
 The Ladies' Memorial Association ob- tained possession of the church, of which only the walls and roof were in- tact. and decided to restore the inte- rior and use 1t for e mortuary chapel, and to carry out the idea of Q memo rial by requesting each Southern State to put in e window. in memory of their dead who lie in sight of the ivyclad walls of the old church; these windows to follow one general design. as indi- cated in a former circular. that Is, at the top, the coat of arms of the State contributing the window. in the centre, the figure of one of the apostles, and a suitable inscription at the bottom. The cost of each window Is $400, and the various Memorial Associations. Camps of Confederate Veterans. Sons of the Confederacy and Daughters of the Confederacy. and kindred commem- orative. associations throughout the South, will cooperate with the Peters burg Memorial Association and start a popular subscription to raise $40o. the sum necessary to defray the cost of putting in a Memorial Window for each State.
 Virginia and Missouri were the first States to respond to the appe1l sent out by the Ladies' Memorial Associa- ton, and their example was quickly followed by the Washington Artillery of Louisiana. These three beautiful windows were put in place in May, 1904. and unveiled with impressive cor emonies,, in the presence of vast thronr on June g. our local Memorial Day.
 The interior of the church has been so far restored that 1t has been possi- ble to use 1t for funeral services on several occasions. It is hoped to have the work of restoration complcted at an early date, with pews and pulpit in place, provision made for heating Tn the winter, and the present plain glass windows replaced by the memorial windows from the remaining States thus making of old Blandford Church an enduring and practical memorial to our lost cause and its heroes A rep resentative of Tiffany & Co.,, says when the work is completed this memorial chapel will be the most beautiful antique in America
 It is earnestly hoped that this appeal will meet with 0 prompt response. as it is important that the work be push ed to completion.
 It is recommended that the organiza tlons 6f each State appoint a Stat, Treasurer, to whom these contriou tions should be sent; the treasurer. il turn, remitting to
