GET TWENTY YEARS
LIMIT OF LAW GIVEN sAMBO
 GRICE.
Was Negro Who Attempted to Rape Ten Year Old Child in Pensacola -Convictiou Required One
 Day.

Pensacola, Fla, Feb. 9.--(Special) --Sambo Grice, the negro who, ten days ago attempted to rape the ten year old daughter of C.M. King, re- siding at the corner of Hayne and Strong streets, was this morning sem tenced in the Criminal Court to serve a term of twenty years in the State convict camps.
 The sentence passed by the court was the extreme penalty fixed by law. as it is provided that a person con- victed of this charge cannot be sem tenced to serve a term in prison ex- ceeding twenty years. The passing of sentence on the negro followed the denying of motion by the court for an arrest of judgment, which was made by attorneys for the defendant Wednesday afternoon.
 The case of Grice is one which has attracted considerable attention in Florida, owing to the quick and speedy trial given the negro. His att tempt to rape little white girl was followed by immediate arrest. and the . following day he was turned over to the county authorities by the police and committed to jail. The next day he was given a preliminary hearing and held to the criminal court. and on the third day after the commitment of the crime he was tried and con- victed. Within one week afterwards he had been sentenced to a term of twenty years.

To Improve orphanage.

An effort is being made, since a statement was made by Capt. Jacob Kryger regarding the deplorable condl- ton of the Pearl Eagan Orphan Home, to better matters in that institution, by supplying the necessary amount of funds for conducting the institution Today meeting of prominent citizens was held and a finance committee ap- pointed to receive donations that will place the home fh first class condition, and will maintain it ana clothe the eighteen orphans properly.
 Captain Kryger. who Is one of the most charitably Inclined citizens of the city. recently paid visit to the Home. where he found the beds in want of cover and pillows. and other conditions existing which made the place uncom- fortable for the inmates. This was not attributed to the matron, as she had no funds with which to procure the necessary clothing and conduct the in- stitution. but the citizens were cen- sored for allowing such a condition to exist Much talk followed by those who desired to assist in caring for the homeless little ones. and 1t Is now be- lieved that funds sufficient will be do- mated each month to properly equip and maintain the Home.

A Popular sheriff.

Perhaps no man in the State has proven to. be more popular sheTin than has W. E. Haynes of Lowndes County, who, few days ago, took the oath again for the fifth time. During each term that MT. Haynes has held the office of Sheriff of Lowndes County. he has fearlessly discharged the duties of the office and for that reason he is strong with the voters throughout thar county.
 He was first elected to the office of sherifr of Lowndes County in the year of 1884. He has since been elected to the office each alternate term. A few days ago he again took the oath Of office. and succeeded Will Dickson, who for the past four years has served as the Sheriff of Lowndes County. AL thoagh he had opposition during the last primaries, Mir. Haynes won the nomination by a large majority.

Selma, Feb. 8.
 The trouble between the local union of the International Machinists Asso- citation of American, and the Southern Railway was settled satisfactory to both parties this morning. 8ta At a conference which was held be- tween members of the union and rail- road officials, it was agreed that the non union man, c. s. McGowan, who had been appointed night foreman of the round house, would be removed.
 All of the machinists who walked out of the shops Thursday afternoon at 1 o'clock and who could be found and no- tiaed in time, returned to work at noon. The others who are employed at the shops will return to their work Monday morning.
 All are glad that the trouble between the machinists and the railroad has been peacefully adjusted. No one want ed to see the men go out on strike which would have probably been of long duration.
 c. s. McGowan. the non union man, who caused the trouble. returned to Birmingham tonight While no attempt has been made during the past two days to modest him. he thought 1t best to return to Birmingham at once be- fore he get in trouble.

AS appetizing and attractive a salad
as can be easily made is the whole
tomato, peeled, the pulp partly re-

Muslmelons should be served in a
bed OF ice, not filled with Clipped ice.
The ice against the pulp destroys the
sweetness Of the fruit.
The fancy-shaped sandwich cutters
may be used in cutting melon pulp for
little entertainments. At card party

in card suit shapes.
The pulp of watermelon broken into
small pieces. half dozen in the ice
