Harralson,s Trial Postponed.

The preliminary trial of Charles liar ralson white man, charged with the murder of Grover Richardson by the cor oner's Jury few weeks ago, was to have come this morning in Justice Guns court, but the prisoner waived the exam ination and was remanded to jail to await the action of the grand jury.
 The case is we'll remembered in this city The dead body of Richardson was found lying at the corner of Ninth alley and Nineteenth street some few weeks ago. and all sorts of reports were cur rent as to the manner in which he came to his death.
 The circumstances surrounding the murder pointed to Harralson as being the murderer and was arrested and taken to Birmingham to await the finding of the coroners jury A jury was appointed by Coroner Paris and they returned a yer dict which stated that Haralson was the man.
 AS to whether or not the guilt can be fixed on Harralson remains to be seen, but the impression prevails everywhere that he is the man that committed the crime.
 The preliminary trial of Olmstead Hern- don colored, who was charged by the coroner's jury with having killed man at the Robertstown furnace about four months ago, will take place next Monday and the trial will be conducted by Jus tice Gun.

MT. Tomlinson Enters Golf Tourna- ment at Tate and Makes Excel lent Scores-MoVement of
 Well Known People.

At the annual golf tournament at Tate Springs MT. John W. Tomlinson did some fine work on the links. ac- cording to q special from Tate. taken from the Atlanta Constitution
 Besides the tournament there was some excellent work done on the links by MT. John Tomlinson of Birmingham, with A1r. Nichols, d well known pro fessional, who Is in charge of the Nashville golf course. MT. Tomllnson, prominent attorney in Alabama, is one of those very busy men who has at the same time some leisure to devote to golf, and he plays the sort of game which required that the small handi- cap given him at first by MT. Nichols be with drawn that he and MT. Nichols might play on an equal footing.
 A large gallery" watched the golf CTS during both days of the tourna- ment. and their enjoyment of the event was more than usual on such an oc- casion, since almost the entire course can be seen from Mount Cecelia, the hill above the wonderful Tate spring. There were no ladies in the tournament, but the ladies in their fresh white gowns and lowered hats made an at tractive picture on the hill, some of them perched on the old stlle and oth- CTS seated in gay groups on the thick green grass under great old shady trees. There are a number of ladies here who play golf, and q tournament is to be arranged for them in q short time.

 Great Success-General
 News of Bessemer.

! Bessemer, August 19.-(SpeciaL)- Two attempts have been made during the past two months by prisoners con- fined in the city jail to saw the bars and thereby gain a few hours liberty.
 The latest move in this direction took place last evening when some prisoner with the aid, no doubt, of several oth- CTS, endeavored to cut loose from every thing that held them and make a bold break for the clean and open. The plan, If carried out, would have been one of the greatest jail deliveries that has taken place in this district in some many prisoners confined in the jail at the present time.
 Fortunately for the jail authorities, the culprits could not complete thei work last evening. From the appear ance of the hole that was being bored by the men that were so anxious to escape, it would seem that it would have taken until late this evening at least, before an opening large enough to admit of the exit of a mans body could have been perfected.
 There is no doubt but that great eff forts were made during last evening to complete the work. and the only drawback to the free delivery was because the work required more time than had been anticipated
 The officers connected with the jail express the belief that assistance was being had from tn outside and they are confident that 1t will only be a matter of short time before those that gave assistance will be langush- ing behind the bars.
 When the day warden commenced his morning tour of the cells this morning, he discovered the work that was being done, and naturally he got mixed up in the search for the person that started it.
 There are a good many, both whites and negroes, in the jail and of course no one could throw any light on the subject.
 As stated above this is the second

How to Keep Buttermilk Fresh.
'om Marper's BaZar.

From Marpers BaZar
 While visiting at farm house not long ago I observed that my friend all ways had nice fresh butter milk to use. and I was consumed with curiosity until l found out how she did 1t.
 Having but little milk at this time, the churnings came several days apart, tn erefore every drop of the butter milk was conscientiously poured into large earthen pitcher and to 1t was added a pint or more of cold water.
 Whenever she wanted any of the milk she simply poured off the water (which always remains at the top). and after wards she again covered the remainder with cold water.
 And the biscuits that she madei And the shortcakesi They were delicious, even without the honey which made them still more delectable-

attempt that has been made at jail breaking in this city during the last few months, and it certainly does not speak very well for the respect that the prisoners have for the jail
 The jail Is about as badly in need of repairs as any place could well be- and the sooner something is done to make 1t more secure. the better 1t will be for every one of the officers con- nected with 1t, and the citizens in general.
 Chief of Police Wallace has surround ed himself with a fine set of officers, but there Is little use in their making an arrest if at any old time the pris- oner elects he can saw out.
 It is needless to say that when the real offenders are caught and come up before Mayor Sullivan for trial that he will hand them a few doses that will be a guarantee against swamp fever for ever
