Many people persist in riding on the street cars. insuficiently protected by clothing.
 They start out perhaps in the heat of the day and do not feel the need of wraps.
 Precautfon Better Than Medicine.
 The rapid moving of the car cools the body unduly. When they board the car, perhaps they are slightly perspir- ing. When the body Is in this condi- tion 1t is easily chilled. This Is espe- cially true when a person Is sitting.
 Beginning a street car ride in the middle of the day and ending it in the evening almost invariably requires ex- tra wraps, but people do not observe these precautions. hence they catch cold.
 Nip Colds In the Beginning.
 Colds are very frequent in the spring on this account, and as the summer ad- yances, they do not decrease. During the spring months. no one should think of riding on the car without being provided with wrap.
 Pe-ru-na Prevents Colds
 A cold caught in the Spring Is liable to last through the entire summer. Great caution should be observed at this season against exposure to cold During the first few pleasant days or spring, the liability of catching cold IS
 No wonder so many people acquire muscular rheumatism and catarrnal diseases during this season.
 However, in spite of the greatest precautions, cold will be caught.

The position taken, by Mayor Atkins that the law which governs Selma merchants should also govern other people doing business here.
 The way of Montgomery trying to run oyer Selma in matters of this kind should be stopped" declared May or Atkins. Our merchants are com pelled to pay license to conduct their business and they are compelled to observe the Sunday law, and out stders should be made also to observe these ordinances. An outsider shouldn't be allowed to do business here exempt from license when our merchants have to. A warrant for violating the Sunday law shhould also be made out against these men as the evidence shows that they had an open room at the Albert Hotel"
 On advice of City Attorney shafer after the Mayors suggestion the sec- ond warrant was made, but the Mayor said he would sign 1t or abolish it later.
 Judge Craig. representing the de- fendants. pleaded with the court in both cases. but the fine of $50 each was assessed on the first warrant.
 Later in the day the case was com promised by the agreement of the Hur- leys to take our license to conduct a tailoring business for six months The fines were remitted and warrant against the two men for violating the Sunday law was withdrawn.

.BOMBARD HOME
OF NEGRO FAMILY

About sixty white residents in the
neighborhood of Madison and Clinton
streets attacked the home of John
Crumb. a negro gardener, about 8
o'clock last night with rocks and
stones, according to Crumbs story, be-
cause he moved in the neighborhood
Saturday. Not a window in the house
remains intact and one missile hurled
through the front window struck
Crumbs mother, who is so years old,
severely injuring her.
With their faces ashen colored,
Crumb and his wife applied to the
police for protection, but Sergeant Nc
Clure told them that he could not as
sist them as their property is out of
the city limits. Crumb was referred
to the constables. He says that if he
cannot get protection from the officers
he will be forced to defend himself.
A warning was posted on Crumbs
door Saturday night informing him
that the whites in that section of the
city would drive out any negroes who
attempted to move in, but as he had
only recently purchased the property
he decided to stay as long as possible.
Without the slightest warning, so
Crumb says, the crowd descended on
his place after the family had retired
and began a bombardment of the
house. Crumb his wife, mother and
his seven children sought safety in the
basement until the siege was over with.
With his wife the negro attempted
three times to leave the house but was
driven back by a fusilade of missiles.
At last, believing their lives were in
peril, he made rush and ran the
gauntlet,
