There was deep wrinkle in his

Senator Mills asked the court that

The jury retired to deliberate a
few minutes before six o'clock and,
being well regulated jury, promptly
sent out for dinner. There was no
discussion of the evidence until din

1t was a long gruelling day for Gill

front of the jury, building the struc-
tuic Vi s5ulll piece ny plcCS, anu iSdS-

with damaging argument and power

All day long the old Herkimer court
room was famed with people. Freez-

outside.
Late in the afternoon the prosecu-
tor concluded and Justice Devendorf
charged the jury as to weight of ev-
idence and the various degrees of
homicide. When he concluded the
jury filled out and Gillette was shack

his cell in the Jail across the street.

Judge Devendorf announced he
would keep court open until midnight

The California senators in the upper

NEGRO GRAND JUROR HAS
 STIRRED UP COMMUNITY

Montgomery. April 6.-(special)-A me- gro whose name has not been learned here was severely whipped in Monroe county night before last because he in- sisted on serving on the grand jury to which he had been drawn. Though drawn on the jury he was not summoned. How ever. on Monday. having seen his name in the local paper as one of the jury, he swan the river to get to Monroeville. He was not allowed to serve and was told that the judge would excuse him from service if he asked 1t. This he refused to do.(
 Tuesday night he was taken out by some one not known and whipped and told to move on The next day he showed up and exhibited his bruises to Judge Lack land. telling how they were received. The judge at once called the grand jury into the court room, related the case and in- structed them that they should proceed to discover and indict the persons who had white-capped the negro.
 'eI have performed my duty, gentlemen of the jury, perform yours,' said the judge as he dismissed them. The charge created a profound impression in the county and the judge Is being congratulated on the stand he has taken However, the feel Ing is high and In some parts of the county the negroes have been ordered to move out and not allow night to catch them there,

Selma. April 6.-tspecia1)-A few days ago news came from Monroeville. the county seat of Monroe county, that great eonsternation and not little excitement had been occasioned by the drawing of a negro to sit on the grand jury which was empaneled on Tuesday last. The reports were to the effect that the jury commis- sioners had come in for no little criticism and the incident was indeed a live one. Today travelling men who are right from the scene relate that the negro served on the grand jury all day Tuesday.
 Wednesday morning bright and early he hunted Judge Lackland up and is re- ported to have said: "Jedge, I wants to Rx yer to 'scuse me from serving on that jury. Tse sick man, jedge, l is, and [ wants to go to my home" The judge is reported to have looked at the swollen and otherwise disfigured eountenance of the negro which had been different prior to Tuesday night and concluding that he had not spent a pleasant night, excused him from further attendance at court and the negro is now reported to be hard at work preparing the soil in the western part of Monroe county for the planting of cotton and corn.

A Bicycle Cave.

Three negro boys were airainged in police court yesterday in connection with stolen bicycle and after listening to the accusations and counter accusations, Judee Feagin was unable to determine whether there # a wholesale subtefranean bicycle supply depot in Smithheld or not.
 The boy who was caught with the bicycle said that he bought N from one of the others and went out after IL at midnight about week ago. He sald that the boy he got it from has hole or excavation of some sort near his nome in Smithfield which he keeps stocked with aH sorts of wheels. These wheels he sells to boys in the country and gets city boys to peeldle for him down town.
 After hearing the testimony of mum her of witnesses the court, could not make heads or tails out of the case. He dismissed the case against one boy put another on probation and sent the tErd one to q o'clock train on his promise to go to coal mines twenty miles in the country and never put his foot inside the city again.
 During the trial of the case there was some amusing repartee between the court and some of the witnesses. An aunt of one of the boys stepped in front of the judges desk and very solemnly and de- liberately said:
 'Jedge. I'm gwine tell you what pleases de Lord bout dis case"
 "What do you know about what pleases the Lord?' rather sharply demanded the court.
 well anything dats right pleases him don't it2" promptly replied the old woman.
 When the court inquired where another l a female relation walked to the front and named place that evidently did not appeal to his honors idea of responsibility and he asked:
 "If he is such good boy as you say he is, what do you let him stay at such place as that for?'
 "WeH. if he can't stay at one place, he jest as well stay at another was the womans reply. 'All right" said the court, suppose we try the coal mines then Nav. nav. jedge; don't you do that. I jest as soon have him whar he is as | out dar"
