EXCELLENT LECTURE IN FIRST
 BAPTIST CHURCH.
Dr. Hawthorne Delivers CeIebrated Ad- dress for Benefit of societfe.. Wii Preach at Regular
 Service Tonirht.

A large and appreciatfye audience met Dr. J. 3. Hawthorne in the as- sembly room of the First Baptist Church Friday night to hear his cele- brated lecture. ssunshine. Air and Out door Life" To say that this great man lectured Is to, say that. there was great treat in store for those for tutnate enough to hear him,
 pr. Hawthorne has for a, number of years borne the honor of being one of the great men of the South and perhaps one of the greatest orators she has produced. Although he says that he is not as young as he was thirty years ago. he still retains the fire of enthusiasm and the power to grip and hold his audience in spell of entertainment.
 Dr. Hawthorne's plea for broader and better life physically and mental ly. and outdoor living and sunshine and air he declared to be the great essen tials. He deprecates the confinement of brick walls. stuffy rooms. The American peoples practice of hot housing their boys and girls their men and their women, the lecturer declared was telling seriously upon the man hood and the womanhood of our na- tion. f
 He drew his comparison from the nations of the earth and their various tendencies and from the strong fibered oak of the forest in It's freedom and in it's battles with the storms, and the beautiful, tender hot-house plant. From these illustrations he urged his hear CTS to more recreation in the fields and in the forests.
 Dr. Hawthorne decried the present commercialism. He declared that God made the country. but man made the town. He paid n glowing tribute to the purity of patriotism of the coun- try life.
 The lecturers description of going to sleep in the forest beside the run ming brooklet was so realistic that his audience for moment perhaps felt itself in drowsy state. but 1t was quickly awakened when the speaker described the chase behind a pack of hounds. Their bayings furnished sweeter music than did full orches- tra. the speaker declared. and the au- dience was prepared from the word ing of the picture to believe.
 The lecture was given under the auspices of the Ladies' Societies of the church for their society purposes.
 pr. Hawthorne was persuaded to re- main in the city today, and will preach to the congregation of the church at the night services of the First Baptist Church.

Shot mysteriously through the back of the head, Jack Shores, a well-known negro, lies in dying condition at the county jail. The shooting is believed ytc -curred about 8 o'clock in the
 ane Railroad yards, in West IA, was not brought to the pail or mad the attention of a surgeon until t bout 10 o'clock.
 The authorities were informed about 2 o'clock of the shooting and Deputies J. B Clements. George Wilson. Hall and mcCord went immediately to West End. They brought the wounded negro and three prisoners back with them.
 Who did the shooting is question which is now puzzling the county au thorsties. The three negroes. who were taken to the county jail, declare that another negro, Tom Barnes, did the shooting but of this the deputies are not sure. Barnes has not yet been found. but the deputies are hot on his trail, and his arfest within few hours was expected late last night.
 Deputy Sheriff J. B. Clements was the officer first notified of the shooting. He said last night that he was about to sit down to supper when crowd of ne- gro men and women came to hss front door and informed him that an un- known negro was lying shot near the railroad tracks. Soon afterwards Deputy Clements. with the negroes. who had come to him, went to the scene of the shooting in what Is known as woi- folks Quarters, at the end of Bell Street.
 Said to Have Been Drunk.
 Mfr. Clements was told of how the wounded negro had been fin the quar- ters all afternoon and the early part of the night He was reported to have been in a drunken delirium. and the whole quarter was terrorized by his statements.
 Deputy Clements found the wounded man and had him Immediately conveyed to the county jail, where surgeon was awaiting. Upon examination, 1t was found that the negro had evidently been shot from behind, and had not seen his assaiiant. The bullet had en- tered just above the left ear and ranged diagonalIy across the brain, being stop ped by the frontal bones of the skull.
 The negro, when brought to the jail, was breathing with difficulty, and h;s pulse was weak at forty-two. That he had been drinking heavily was evil denced by his breath, which reeked with the fumes of alcohol. It is prob- ably due to this stimulant that he has lived, It was stated that when the effects of the alcohol died out, tho end would come quickly. The surgeon in Attendance stated that there was no hone of life. It was expected that he would never regain consciousness
