Five Years in Jail and $3.50 Fine.

Frank Richardson, negro who has
already served one term in the peni-
Tertiary for HOUSEKEEPING and has
spent much time in Jail for various Of
lenses, was tried in the corporation
court Tuesday charged with attempt
ing to assault Miss Beulah White, a
young white woman. The prisoner
was represented by Mr.. Duncan Cnrry
and the commonwealth by Capt. Car
ter BraXton. The attack on Miss White
was proved, but the evidence did not
show whether his purpose might not
have been robbery. The court ruled
that under the statute and recent de-
cision of the court of appeals, he could
not be sent to the penitentiary, and the
jury fixed his punishment at $3.50 fine
and five years in Jail. If the verdict
stands this means five years on the
public highways. Motion was made
for new trial.

Under Southern Skies.

One of the most successful plays to
be presented in our city this season is
"Under Southern Skies which will
appear at Beverly Theatre on Saturday,
Aug. %. "Under Southern Skies" is
one of the largest and most expensive
dramatic companies now travelling, as
the company numbers twenty-three
people, and every piece of scenery used
in the production is carried with the
company. "Under Southern Skies" is
now in its seventh season having had
six phenomenally successful years.
"Under Southern Skies is from the
pen Of Lottie Blair Parker who also
wrote "Way Down East" and it is as
true and interesting picture of the
South as that now famous play is OF
New England.
Publicity makes a product noted,
quality brings fame. 'Salada' Tea is
both noted and famous.
