DEE SHELTON TO BE
 TRIED THIS WEEK
HE IS CHARGED WITH THE MUR- DER OF HIS UNCLE MORE THAN TWO YEARS AGo-WILL BE THE THIRD TRIAL.

Florence, September 16.-(Special.)-A long drawn out legal battle and one re- plete with unusual features has been the fight for the life of Dee Shelton who has already been tried twice in the Lau- derdale county circuit court for the mur- der of his uncle. W. A. Hammonds, in May 1904
 The first trial. September, 1904, re- suited in conviction and on account of the youth of the defendant, who was only r, he was given life sentence. His attorneys appealed and after wait ing its turn in the supreme court, the case was reversed on a slight technlcality and tried again at the March term of court, this year, resulting in a hung jury.
 It Is a remarkable circumstance that three different solicitors will have prose- cuted the case; Solicitor Sawtelle, who acted in the first trial, being absent at the second and Judge E. B. Almon acting as special solicitor. At the coming trial R. T. Simpson. who was recently ap- pointed solicitor will be disqualified, owing to the fact that he has been one of the attorneys for the defense and Hon. Paul Hodges will act as special solicitor.
 special venire of 50 has been sum- moned from which to select a jury
 The murder for whichE' Shelton is to be tried for the third time Thursday, was a most attrocious one. It occurred Sunday morning, when the entire family with the exception of the murdered man, were attending church at some distance away and returning they found Ham monds lying in the front door shot and with his head beat into a pulp.
 Trouble over the division of property was thought to be the cause of the mur- der and circumstantial evidence pointed so strongly to Shelton that he was ar rested the following week.
 Just prior to the boys first trial he was visited in prison by his father, who returned home and committed suicide. Shelton has suffered greatly from the confinement and from present appear ances he will not survive much longer.

NEGRO CONFESSES

 Improvements.
BURTON COMES FRIDAY

Selma, September 16.-(Special.) )-Chief. Walters and the police department are coming in for a liberal share of praise to- day over the capture of the negro Cater Wood, who broke into the house of Judge P. H. Pitts Thursday night, stealing much money. jewelry, etc. Wood was arrested by Chief Walters in person in less than twenty-four hours after the crime was committed. The negro confessed to being the right man, as he could not well do otherwise with five of the gold pieces, two gold watches and several other things being found in his pockets. The spending of the gold pieces in ten or twenty dif- ferent places around the city gave Chief Walters the clue and he was not slow In following ih until he ran the culprit to cover. A mystery to Dr. Pitts and his brother, A. M Pitts was why the negro did not take a 41-calibre pistol that was left In the room on the dresser, but which was found by pr. Pitts the night after the robbery on the bottom shelf of the wardrobe. Wood, when asked about 1t stated that he had placed the pistol there in easy reach of his hand while he sorted out his booty, sitting on the floor, and that had any one disturbed him 1t was his n- tention to kill him. The negro also con- fessed to having entered the house of MT. Wolf in the same neghborhood and had with him a silver watch and other trinkets belonging to Mr. Leon Ehlbert. Mrs. Wolf's brother-in-law. who lives in the same house. The negro will be given 6 preliminary trial Monday, when he will be bound over to await the action of the grand jury.
