ReU. John Beeman Adopts NeW Means of Gaining Linehght

Rev. John Beeman is'again in the iimelight.
 Rev. John Beeman just can't keep out of the limelight. Like Roosevelt, Bryan Tom Lawson, Mary McLain, and Henry Gray, he knows the value of printers ink, and, like the aforemen- tioned personages, John Beeman, broth CT of Dave Beeman, recently rescued from the murderer's gibbett. likes 72- point type lots better than he does small pica.
 Rev. John Beeman is still in the limelight. Newspaper men of Mont gomery believed that after he had of- fered himself to hang in the place of his murderer brother, after he had been accused of buying Gospel hymn books and not paying for them. after he had
 stayed in front of the door of the of flee of Governor Conner for seventy-two
 hours until the Governor commuted the sentence of Dave Beeman, and af-
 ter he had offered his photographs for
 sale. they were well rid of him.n
 But John Beeman, like leechs the
 itch. the Waterbury watch, the Saliva
 tion, Army and the musical comedy,
 has come to stay.
 A day had elapsed and John Bee
 mans name had not appeared in print.
 This was gall, wormwood. and sour
 pickles to Rev. John Beeman. He was
 determined to get his name in print,
 and he, therefore, now declares that
 he has converted Dr. F. c. Galley. the
 negro physician in the Montgomery
 County jail. charged with murder ana
 meretricious practice.
 This wasn't so bad, but he had no
 business in soaring a blonde headed
 artist who works in The Advertiser building to death in informing The Advertiser of his powers of preaching. The blonde headed artist aforemen- tiohed is an early riser. He is usually the first to report at The Advertiser building. He came around yesterday afternoon about o'clock and saw Q mysterious missive hanging on nall on the side door. It was addressed
 ITO the advertiser, City" The letter
 was in common, or garden envelope
 but was suspended from a nail by . hempen cord.
 Now. the blonde headed artist did not appreciate this. He had misgiv- ings of mafias. of black hand outrages Sssh! 1t might be a note of defiance from collector! :. He would not open the missive. He called on a common reporter, who hap pened by. The reporter, however, was equally afraid. One glance at the note convinced him that Mayor Teague was wrong in closing the saloons on 1 Sunday, and he and the artist imme- diately proceeded to endeavor to break | the law.
 'Tt's a message that The Advertiser will have to pay over $5,00o to Antonio | Dynamitio or be blown to smithereens 1 by tonight at 12 o'clock" observed the \ artist. "Tll bet two paint brushes | against an empty coco-cola bottle that l that's it." he added.
 The. reporter merely groaned anc 1 hurried on. In the meantime, city editor came City editors are usually brave men. | They have even been known to speak I harshly to reporter. He took dowr | the note, Here is what he found, 1 this statement is from Rev Johr | Reeman called to see you all ana

QUITS IN OCTOBER
REV. JOHN BASS SHELTON NOT TO
 REMAIN WITH CHURCH.
After Completion of Year will Return to EvangeIistie WOrk-Win Continue to Reside in
 M0ntnOmery.

Rev. John Bass Shelton. pastor of the Adams Avenue Baptist Church, an- nounced to his congregation yesterday morning that he should not remain with them longer than his second an- nfversary as pastor of the church, Tn October He expects to enter tine gen eral evangelistic field, and will con- tinue for some time at least, to make his residence in Montgomery. at his present home on South Decatur Street.
 MT. Shelton told his congregation that he had had the advisabilty of taking such a step under consideration for some time. While on his recent vacation he made definite plans which would require his relation to the con- gregatlon as pastor to cease in Octo- Der.
 MT. Shelton has spent ten years of his nineteen years in the ministry in the evangelistic field. He has wide acquaintance. and is well prepared TOT his chosen work. MT. shelton assur- ed the eanembers of his congregation that 1t would be useless to urge him to stay, as his mind was fully made up as to the course he is to pursue.
 he resignation was quite unexpect- ed. and the workers of the church are somewhat at sea just at present as to his successor. About len days ago MT. Shelton rendered his resignation to the deacons of the church, but they unan- imousIy refused to consider 1t, or to offer it to the congregation. Follow ing the action. Mir. shelton himself took the matter up with the congre- gation at the morning service yester- day.
 The work of the church, it is said. is in excellent condition. The running affairs of the church were never in bet ter shape, and there are besides some large things being planned for the fu- ture.

FEDERAL GRAND JURY
 TO CONVENE TUESDAY
No Great Amount of work In Sight For Uncle Sam's HRquisitorial
 Body,

The Federal grand jury for the mid de district of Alabama will be con vened by Judge Jones at 10 o'clock Tuesday morning. United States depu- ty marshals have just returned from a trip which was spent in serving papers on citizens throughout the dis- trict who have been drawn as mem bers of the inquisitorial body.
 So far as is known in advance, the grand jury will not have a great vol ume of business. Federal officers as sert that infractions of Uncle sam s laws have been infrequent in the mid dIe district during the past six months and, on this account. 1t is believed the august body of grand jurors will not be overly burdened with work.
 The grand jury will grind without an open court so far as indications now point. Judge Jones has not an- nounced a day for opening court to begin the trial of cases for the May term.
