RECORD OF COURTS

An adjourned term of the circuit court
of Jefferson county will begin its session
this morning at 10 O'Clock, and Supernu-
merary Circuit Judge Aston will pre-
side.
The decision to hold the adjourned term
was reached three weeks ago by Judge
A. A. Coleman, and he requested Govern
or Jelks to instruct Judge Aston to come
here for the purpose of holding the ses-
sion. The term will continue three weeks,
closing March a.
The fall term of the circuit court closed
Saturday last. and Judge Coleman him
self would have held the adjourned term
but for the fact that he was compelled
to visit Winston and Walker counties to
hold court there. He will remain on the
road three weeks and will return to Br-
mngham in time to open the regular
spring term of the circuit court here.
The following cases are on the docket
of the circuit court for trial today, all

While nothing definite has yet been
decided it is very likely the first division
of the criminal court will devote all next

the intention of the judges and the state
solicitors to place on trial as many as
possible of the prisoners held in the coun-
ty Jail under indictment for murder and
other capital offenses. Persons out on
bond for such offenses will be tried at a
later term of court.
