Young Vaughn was resident of this city but got in some trouble across the river and was convicted or burglary in the Quitman county court and sentenced to seven years in the penltentiary. Although he protested his innocence to the last. the evidence against him was sufficient to convict and the sentence was more than ne could bear and led to the rash act Vaughn was born and grew to manhood in this city, and while he had the rep utation of being wild and somewhat reckless, he was never before accused of so serious crime.

DISOBEYED ORDERS
THIS WAS CAUSE OF ACCIDENT AT
 PIPER MINE.
Inspector Kufrner Reports To Governor That Loss of Life Was Due To Refusal to Follow Instrue-
 tlona.

According to q report made by As sistant Mine Inspector M. M. Kuffner yesterday to Governor Jelks. through Chief Mine Inspector J. M. Gray. the disaster st Piper Mine No. 2. was caus- cd by a method of mining against been instructed by the State Mine The spectors.
 It will be remembered that eleven miners were killed. and the same num- Der wounded in an explosion at the Pi- per mine on February 27. Inspector Kufrner was on the scsno of the disas- ter shortly after 1t occurred. He con- CUTS completely in the report made by Inspector Gray to the Governor two weeks ago. and the statement of con ditions in the mine are identical in each report. He, however. adds that the main trouble In the mine is in the man. ner in which the coal is worked. Nearly all of the coal iS shot from the solid without doing any pick work and many times deep holes are bored straight In on the almost square face. He says that he had talked against this way of working with both miners and the mine managers Of the Piper opening. and sent rules to the company govern ing the working of coal in this mine. The company agreed 10 accept these rules, but. according to the evidence. 1t seems that the miners absolutely re- fused to accept them. This was report ed to the officers of the company. but never to the Chief Mine Inspector, Hs in the case of other mines.
 As miner of many years exper- fence, Mir Kuffner says that this meth cd of working is defective and dan gerous, and recommends that the Chief Inspector and Board of Mine Foremen Examiners make rule for the method and manner of workig this none.

ARE SEEKING SPACE
IMPoRANT MANUFACTURERS TO
 EXHIBITION AT STATE FAIR.
Board of Directors of Agricultural As- sOciatioE Will Meet his Afternoon to Consider Location of the
 Grounds.

That the importance which the State . Fair of the Alabama Agricultural As- sociation, which Is to be held in Mont gomery October 22 to 27, inclusive, will have upon the farming and other in- terests of the State, IS already coming to be recognized by people outside of the city, was shown in a communfca- tion to the Secretary of that organiza- tion yesterday. in which one of the largest wind mill manufacturing con- cerns in Chicago applied for exhibit space.
 Although the movement for the big exhibition is scarcely under way, and the first meeting of the Board of Di- rectors will not be held until this af- ternoon, 8 number of applications have been received. several of which are either from out of town concerns, or from manufacturing firms in other cit les which have branches in Montgom- cry. In addition to these, number of local merchants and manufacturers have also applied early in order to get choice positions when the time comes for the allotment of space.
 The meeting in the headquarters of the association at 40 1-2 Commerce Street this afternoon at 4 o'clock prom ises to be one of the greatest impor- tance, as here for the first time will be outlined and discussed the plans which will later be carried out in the preparations for the big event.
 The first matter which will be de- cided upon will be the selection of a site for the Fair Grounds. Of scarcely less importance, however, will be tho discussion of plans for the building of the race track and the structures for the exposition exhibits.
 Several plans have been prepared for the consideration of the board and will be presented at this afternoons meet ing They all provide for the erection of the stalls and booths for stock and animals, the erection of buildings for agricultural and for mining and min eral exhibits, and for a large grand stand with a seating capacity of sever al thousand.
 The premium list on which Secretary Adams has been working during the last week, 1t is expected, will also be presented to the board for approval
