He will go back to Russellville and be tried under writ of habeds cor pus.
 Hampton, some time ago, was given notoriety through the daily papers for having sought to influence and incite the negroes of his congrega tion against the white people Of Russellville, which Hampton indignantly denies, branding the reports SIS false. Hampton is an exceptionally shrewd darkey.

Advertiser Bureau.


 Selma, Nov. 2S. The matter of the reorganization of the camp of Sons of Veterans of this city Is being agitated by some of the members of Camp Jones, United Con- federate Veterans
 Some years ago a camp of Sons of Veterans was organized in this city,. but nothing ever resulted from the or- ganization. Officers were elected and then the camp practically died out.
 In speaking upon the question this morning a veteran who had just re- turned from the reunion at Mobile. said that Selma was possibly the only city in the State that was not repre- sented at the reunion by a delegation from a camp of Sons of Veterans. The memories Of the South and the war which the Sons of the South fought so valiantly should always be kept green, he thought, and to keep alive this memory he was of the opinion that the sons of the Veterans should take more interest in their organizations.
 In speaking upon this question:, the veteran said that Dallas County and Selma for the State of Alabama spilled the first blood in the Civil War. This blood was shed at Bull Run. when seven soldiers from Dallas died upon the field of hattie. three of them from thls clty ana the othef TOUT rom the county. The companies that they were members of were the Governors Guards of this city. under the command of T. J. Goldsby and the Cadets. under the command of the late Col. N. H. R. Dawson.
 The old veteran wanted to see the camp of Sons of Confederate Veterans in this~ city reorganized. new officers elected and some life put into the or ganization. He said that the young women of the city were more pa triotic than the young men. The or ganization of the Daughters of the Confederacy was in a hourishing con- l dition and were ever doing d good work.

Hau. with staring eyes. answered:
 T don't understand what this is all about"

Until this morning Hau either did not. or pretended he did not. re- cognlze anybody, eveh his lawyer, Mir wilson. When the former came into court today. however. he said:
 "Oh, this is MT. Wilson"
 Hau was still dressed faultiessly, but his hair was disheveled and his face unshaven, while his eyes wandered aim less1y around the court room. occa- sionalIy he would ask Mir. Wilson or the detective who arrested him at the Hotel Cecil what he was there for. They tried by every means to make him talk coherentiys but if the prisoner was pretending to be insane he was on his guard, for when suddenly told that a letter had been received from his wife his only answer was:
 That's absurd"
 When MT. Wilson addressed the pris- oner as Hau, he angriIy asked;
 why call me Hau. My name Is Burnhan Eddine Effendf." ttile name of the favorlte son of the Sultan Of Turkey.)
 The magistrate could not get any thing from the prisoner but the re- peated statement:
