Mrs. Wingard Had Thrilling Experf- ence with Little Negro.

Mrs. Lula wingard, who conducts a retail grocery store at the corner of Randolph and Decatur streets had an exciting experience with two negro boys about six o'clock yesterday even ing whom she discovered in her store tampering with the cash draw She had not seen anyone enter. the store and she was appraised of the pres ence of the boys by the noise they made in trying to open the drawer that contains the money. She. walked henind the counter and immediately were Lawrence Grady, thirteen years old and billiard Franklin. fourteen years old.
 Mrs. Wingard caught the Grady boys arm and held him fast but his com panion managed to escape while Mrs. boy. He fought desperately but the plucky little woman held to him. Out of the store room, through the dining room, through the bed room and out on the back porch, the boy dragged the woman behind him in his strenuous efforts to get away. Time after time. he sank his teeth into both of her hands and although the wounds were extremely painful and blood flowed freely from the lacerations, she Aheld to him with a determination not to be conquered.
 A clerk from a store across the street was attracted to the Wingard home by the noise of the trouble and came to the assistance of tho woman. The boy was then trying to break glass tumbler which he had grabbed and which he was probably trying to break in order to cut Mrs. Wingard with It's sharp edges. A rope was se- cured and the boy wa stied.
 Meanwhile the police had been tele- phoned for and Bicycle Patrolmen Evans and Russell made a hurried re- sponse to the call. Just as they reach ed the store. the Brady boy managed to loosen himself from the rope fas- tenings and clambered over a fence with the patro1men after him. In an alley between Decatur and Hull was taken to police headquarters and lodged in a cell of the city prison,
 billiard Franklin was caught about two hours later by the same officers at the home of his mother.
 As no money was stolen, charges of trespass were preferred against both of the boys and a charge of assault and battery was docketed against the Brady boy.
 Mrs. wingard said she had lost be- tween $50 and $50 from her cash drawer during the last few months and sine suspects that the boys she found in the store yesterday afternoon have been responsible for some of the thieving
 The boys will have a hearing before the recorder this afternoon.

A REPLY TO GLADDEN.
ROCKEFELLER's COUNSEL EX-
 PLAINS ANOTHER CHARGE.
Says That the Congregationalist Preacher, Whether He Spoke Mendaciously or IgnOrantly,
 fs Culpable.

New York, April 25.-John D. Starr, of John D. Rockefellers private coun- sel. issued the following statement by Mir. Rockefeller's authority:
 Tn his latest attack upon MT. Rocke- feller. Dr. Washington Gladden. seeks to make out case of perjury and in doing so assumes paternity for false hood which has been frequently publish ed during the past ten years and until now never answered.
 s'Dr Gladden. says: The South Im- provement Company was one of the schemes invented by the Standard Oil magnates to plunder their competitors and enrich themselves. The organiza- tion and the methods of this company were abundantly proved in court and the company was driven out of busi- ness. A few years afterward, before a committee of the New York Legiss lature, MT. Rockefeller under oath took part in the following colloquy:
 There was such company
 "I have heard of such company
 "'You were not in tt?'
 CT was not
 "Mr Lloyd appropriately adds So help me God
 'On the same day another of the former trustees and one of the closest associates of MT. Rockefeller being asked by a congressional committee who made up that South Improvement Company named as among them the principal members of the Standard oil Company and at the head of them all stood the name of John D. Rockefel- ler.'
 'Dr. Gladden. makes much of his posi- tion as an original investigator and says that 1t Is within the power of every intelligent man to find out from the original documents whether the statement is true or not.
 "But unfortunately. his statement Is untrue and his whole charge of perjury rests upon a garbled report. The testi- mony Is taken from "A Report of an investigation Relative to Trusts. New York Senate, 1888, pages 419-20. Any one turning to that report will find that MT. Rockefeller's testimony to the effect that he was not in such a com pany' did not refer to the South Inn provement Company at all, but to smother and entirely different corpora ton called the Southern Improvement Company. There were two corpora tions-the Sstlth Improvement Com nany and the Southern Improvement Company. The Southern Improvement Company was incorporated in Pennsyl- Vania, April 16, 1870 and Mir Rocke- feller was not connected with 1t. The South Improvement Company was in- porporated over a year later, May 6. 1871 and Mir. Rockefeller was connected with it. The charters of both these corporations are printed in full in the statutes of Pennsylvania and are access sable to all.
 .Tf Dr. Gladden. has mendaciously Earbled the testimony in order to make out a case there is nothing more to say. If he has done 1t ignorantly and has confused the names of two corpora tions he Is scarcely less culpable since. before making a charge of so serious a character, it was obviously

Find Made by Family Living Near We-
 tum mpha.


 Wetumpka. April 25.-(Special )--A white family of Smiths, living about a mile and a half from town, awoke on Easter morning and found a basket containing white infant-a few days old on Its front steps. The Smith fam fly is not able to care for the found ling and some provision will have to be made for it. There is no clue which might lead to the discovery of the pa- rents of the abandoned child.
 A peanut hunt on Saturday afternoon and an egg hunt on Monday gave pleasure to a number of Wetumpka children.
 A boy 10 or II years old. the young son of Mir. A. c. Clark of East We tumpka, died very suddenly last Satur- day night. The child had not been well for some time and had gone to the country on visit and his death so unexpectedly from heart failure came as terrible shock to his family.
 Both yesterday, when court con vened, and today large crowds have been in town attending the sessions of Circuit Court. Owing to the absence on account of illness, of Solicitor W. B. Bowling, J. M. Holley has been ap- pointed Special Solicitor. W. A. J. Ramsey is foreman of the grand jury.
 A tragedy among negroes occurred Sunday afternoon near the Lancaster plantation. A young negro, Joe Lang ford, son of Nat Langford. a we'll known town negro, was being pursued by an old negro named Fred Giles. Giles claimed to be a hoodoo man and has been in the habit of going around with rattlesnakes in his hat. Only the Sunday before he had thrown a snake on the Langford boy and last Sunday when he began to run him with d snake the lad turned and begged the "hoodoper" to stop. He would not de- sist and the Langford negro turned and shot his pursuer. As a result the boy is in jail and the hoodoo- man is in a place where charms will not work the grave.
