been burned to death before they could
escape. The body Of one Of the girls
who slept in the bed opposite them
was found practically in the place
where the bed which she had occupied
stood. The oldest girl was found just
inside of the sill near the door leading
to the porch.
1t is stated by those who went from
Milton TO the scene of the tragedy that
a high northwest wind was blowing at
the time of the fire and that cinders
were found fully half a mile from the
burned building. This being the case
they cannot account for the assertion
that no one discovered the fire while
it was burning
Absolutely no Clue.
There is absolutely no clue to the
perpetrators of the horrible deed, but
every effort is being made by the citi-
zens of Santa Rosa county to appre-
bend the guilty parties. A subscrip-
ton list was started in Milton soon
after the details of the tragedy be-
came known and in a very short time
the sum of 81 ,035 had been subscrib-
ed which will be offered as a reward
for the arrest of the parties guilty of
the crime. An appeal has also been
sent to Governor Broward asking that
a reward be offered on behalf of the
state.
Acreman and his family moved to
Santa Rosa county about three years
ago from Opp, Ala. He worked the
farm on which he lived on shares and
was not considered very well off in
this worlds goods. 1t is said that, at
times, he preached at various places
in the vicinity Of his home He was
considered a good citizen and was
never known to have had any trouble
with his neighbors or with anyone. forI
that matter, which would inspire such
an atrOciOus crime
The cOroner's jury which was en-
paneled, viewed the remains and. af-
ter taking a portion of the evidence,
adjourned to meet at Milton this MORN
mig, when a verdict will be rendered.
The crime has caused a great deal
OF excitement in Santa Rosa county
and the people are determined that no
effort shall be spared to secure thei
arrest and punishment of the ones
guilty Of the horrible deed.

SPORTS

If some team does not lasso that
Shreveport bunch, the Pirates, will
have a lead in the Southern League
race that will be hard to overcome. II
was thought that Birmingham could
trim Shreveport but the Tx Of Gilks
took two out of three from the Barons
and tied the other game up after tif-
teen innings of play. Atlanta who
proved hard game for Birmingham has
cropped two games to the North
Louisiana team. As matters stand al
present Shreveport has lead OF III
points over the nearest competitor.
The ''invincible" Birmingham team
is getting it in the neck, and there
is no cause for regret on the part OF
those who are acquainted with
Vaughan and his methods. Birming-
ham has played thirteen games on the
present trip away from home, won
four. lost eight and tied one.
New Orleans is only 30 points be
hind Birmingham and it is possible
that the Pelicans will be ahead of the
relics before the BarOns leave the
Crescent City. as two more games are
10 be played there.
New York by the two victories over
Cincinnati has again jumped into first
place in the national league. Phila-
Celphia still leads in the American,
and Augusta seems to have a sna9
leading the other teams in the Sallie
organization.

just as charming, graceful and chic as
can be. AS illustrated, the material is

are so well liked this season, trimmed
with handsome braid of the same col

There are Indications that the soft
light grays and some Of the darker
smoke tones as well are to be very
well liked during the coming season
and that the biscuit and node shad
ings are to be more popular than they
were last season. The mellow yellow
tones Of the banana order, tints hardly
yellow, not quite biscuit or ecru, are
also promised considerable attention,
and several soft, rather light greens
are being experimental with.

Viscount kodama Succeeds Field
Marshal Oyama as Chief of
the Army Staff.

VICTORIA. B. c., May 6.-Advices
were received by the steamship Athen-
ian, which arrived last night from
Japan and China, of the retirement of
Marquis Oyama from the post of Field
Marshal and chief Of the Japanese
headquarters staff, he being succeeded
by Viscount Kodama, recently pro-
NOTED from a baronetcy and lieu
tenant-general. Admiral Togo will
shortly be made count because of his
service during the war. Viscount Ko-
dana will be further promoted and be
made count. Count Nodzu will be-
come marquis, and Generals Kuroki,
Oku, Nogi and Kawamura, who were
recently appointed to command the
Toxic district, will be created Wis
counts.
An assemblage Of lieutenant gen.
erals in command of divisions of the
Japanese army has been convened by
the Minister of War to discuss pro-
posed army reforms.
The Toxic Jill Shimi outlines the
Japanese reforms in the field and
mountain artillery and the transport
corps and changes of cavalry and ar
tillery, including the organization of
horse artillery. Other reforms ex-
pected are the building of railways in
Korea and Manchuria, increase of arse
nails, increase OF railway corps and or
ganizing of a balloon corps.
The Nichi Nichi says the organiza-
ton of mounted infantry will be dis
cussed, although approval is uncertain,
as the training Of troops for this SER
vice could not be accomplished in the
shortened period now fixed for SER
vice.
The third period of Japanese naval
expansion now commenced will result
In increasing the Japanese navy by
10000 tons before the end Of this year.
The third programme Of expansion
started with the building of the $4,000
ton battleships Katori and Kashima,
just completed in England, and the
armored cruisers Tsukuba and Ikona,
of $4,000 tons, just launched in Japan;
the kurama, ready in August; the
Ifubi, soon to be laid down, and the
19,000-ton battleship Aki shortly to be
ordered. -Four dispatch boats and
twenty-eight destroyers will be or
dered.
The Japanese courts, now closed,
confiscated forty-nine ships, thirty
three with cargoes, five with part car
goes and eleven without cargoes. Fif-
teen ships have been ordered sold and
spirited bidding is promised from four
japanese and several foreign shipping
companies.

Diamonds and Trinkets Worth Hun
dreds of Dollars Are Lost by
an Auctioneer.

The pathetic stories of valuables mis-
placed in the haste of moving and then
lost in the mad rush of the flames
through the city's streets are being told
and retold wherever the refugees gather
about their camp fires.
Fred H. Chase, the auctioneer, has
one of the hard luck tales to tell Some
weeks since he took a diamond sun
burst valued at more than $400, a dia-
mond pin, watch and some rings of a
total valuation of $500 and placed
them in candy box with some money
belonging to his children.
On the day before the earthquake he
won on nickel-in-the-slot machine and
was paid in cigars and one box of can
dy. He took the candy home.
When the excitement over the fire
was at its height the Chase family had
to move. Mrs. Chase took the box
she supposed contained her jewelry and
packed it safely in her trunk. The fam
lily moved out to the Preside and pre-
pared to camp out.
Mr.. Chase made a hasty examination
of the trunk and learned quickly that
his wife had saved the box of candy
and had left behind the box of jewelry.
He did not have the heart to tell his
wife and at last accounts she was still
congratulating herself that she had
saved her diamonds ont of the wreck.

An Excellent Juror.

The Judge had his patience sorely
tried by lawyers who wished to talk
and by men who tried to evade jury
service. Between hypothetical ques-
tons and excuses it seemed as if they
never would get to the actual trial of
the case. So when the puzzled little
German who had been accepted by
both sides jumped UP the judge was
exasperated.
"Shudge!" cried the German.
What is it?" demanded the Judge.
II t'ink like to go home to my
wife" said the German
You can't" retorted the Judge. "Sit
down"
But, shudge," persisted the Ger
man, Il don't t'ink / make good
shuror."
You're the best in the box" said
the Judge. "Sit down."
what box?" said the German.
Jury box" said the judge.
"Oh, thought it vas bad box that
people gets in sometimes"
no" said the judge, "the bad box
Is the prisoners box"
"But, shudge," persisted the little
German, II don't speak good English" :"
.You don't have to speak any at
ALL" said the Judge. "Sit down"
The little German pointed at the
lawyers to make his last desperate
plea.
"Shudge," he said Il can't make
holdings of what these fellers say"
1t was the judges chance to get even
for many annoyances.
Neither can any one else,' he said.
"Sit down."
With sigh the little German sat
down.--The Green Bag.

Washington, the capital of the na-
ton, offers to architects unusual Op-
portunities for artistic expression. Its
wide streets and stately avenues fur
nish not only long vistas but dignifed
settings; it's ample stretches of IN
broken sky, its abundant foliage and
universal parking, lend it color and
picturesqueness and it's official func-
ton gives it both individuality and
distinction. II Is a peculiar city. thor
oughly cosmopolitan and yet at the
same time provincial In spite of the
fact that it is the seat of the Federal
Government and that it's population
is drawn from every State in the
Union, as well as the world at large.
