 No word of shooting had been re- ceived by the oficers but the nature of the negro's wound and his per. turbed air at their approach caused them to believe that he had been en- gagged In a fight in the course of which a revolver had been discharged. pro- ducing the injury to his hand which they observed. Emanuel denied that such was the case and up to the pres ent time nothing definite has been learned concerning the matter.
 The wound. however. bled profuse- ly and the officers were enabled to

 Confident. then. that there had been a desperate struggle shortly before they ran upon Emanuel. the officers made a thorough investigation but could discover nothing in regard to the matter. They therefore decided to bring the negro to headquarters and await developments in the case.
 An examination of Emanuels hand was made by physician and he was sent to St. Margaret's Hospital. where he could receive proper attention. Only in the event of blood poison is any serious result of the wound to be feared.

UNIQUE MILITARY RECORD
 OF LIEUTENANT SCHWARz

sThe soldiers of the 1st Regiment have made . fine record in the strike district" said a former National Guardsman. who has been at Birming- ham. T was much impressed with their good behavior and their soldiery conduct.
 "There Is one man in this regiment whose patriotism Is worthy of com mendation. I speak of lieutenant Leon schwarz. of Mobile. Lieutenant schwarz wears the unusual distinction of having served with each of the three infantry regiments of the Ala bama Guard He has occupied high business positions in several cities of the State and wherever he has resided he has been a member of the Guard.
 .Lieutenant Schwarz is native of Linden. in Marengo county. He comes of a family of several sons, each of whom has carved out success In the business world. Lieutenant Schwarx has resided In Selma. Tuscaloosa, Blr- mineham and Mobile. He spent two wears in Central America and even there he took an interest in the mili- sarv but did Aot overthrow the gov ernment.
 Now Lieutenant schwarz is . val ued -attache of the dry goods firm of Pollock and Bernheimer in Mobile. And he is a commissioned officer of the 1st Infantry.
 He is undoubtedly one of the finest clerical men in the State and he is an authority on military laws. When there Is an encanpment of the soldiers or riot duty or strike duty, Schwarz is most valuable man. He knows the duty of Guardsmari; knows the law on the subject and knows how to execute orders.
 T noticed in the newspapers that he was the man who took charge of the work of searching the houses at Blocton shortly after the train was fired on. He found scores of weapons and the bad men were disarmed. This shows what good soldier is worth in an emergency of this kind.
 While Lieutenant Schwarz is the battalion adjutaht of Major Hagan's battalion he has been detached and assigned to the Headquarters of Col onel Hubbard In the camp at Norwood. He has charge of the clerical force and the assignment of the military. Tn this capacity he is almost indispen- sable. He has been connected with the National Guard about twenty years and any military officer who knows of his excellent service will agree with me that he ought to have some recognf- ton for his faithful and intelligent work.
 'Lieutenant Schwarz Is merely one of the many good soldiers that are . part of Colonel duMont's capable reg iment."

 Harknees.
 Birmingham. Aug. a7,--(spaciaL)- )--The mortality record of Birmingham for the first six months of the year shows 6 de- crease of ninety-four deaths over the cor responding period of 1907.
 The fact that the doereasas were most prominent in the case of violent deaths Is attributed by City Health Officer R. R. Hardness to the good influence of prohibit tion
 The report shows there were eight deaths from railroad injuries in the first six months of 1908. and thirty-two deaths from the same cause in 1907: 1t shows eighteen deaths from Eunghot wounds in 1908. and thirty-threo in 1901; and two deaths from stab wounds in 1908. against five deaths from this cause In 1907. Tn commenting on this pr. Hardness ro- ports; While the depressed conditions of the industrial centers undoubtedly does ac- count in a great measure for the decrease in deaths from railroad injuries. wo are at a loss to understand the decrease in deaths from other forms of violence, except by ereditinK this decrease to the influence of prohibition"

 Selma, Aug. 27.
 At meeting of the Commercial night the matter of changing the schedule of the night and morning train on the Western Railway of Ala bama between Montgomery and Selma was discussed at length.
 The Western Railroad of Alabama made q proposition to the people of Selma to change the schedule of the two trains on September s so that they would make direct connection with east bound and south bound trains in Montgomery when the new transeontinental schedule will be in- auRurated or that the road would let the schedule remain as it now ia without making these connections If the people Of Selma desired the roa5 to do so.
 The question was thoroughly dis- cucsed and the schedule of every train in and out of Montgomery was figured. The meeting finally decided to ask the management of the road to allow the schedule of the morning train out of Selma and the night train from Montgomery to Selma remain as at present as such schedules would prove more advantageous to the business in- terests of the city.
 No business other than hearing the reports of, Secretary Maryman and Vice President Asee was transacted at the meeting.

yesterday afternoon the Forest Stars
and the Pine Tree Stars played five
innings of what was to have been
full game, but which was nipped
short by little misunderstanding on
the part of the youngsters who COM
posed the rival teams. At the time that
the game was stopped the Forest Stars
had Is scores and the Pine Tree Stars
II. and it is hard telling how high the
scores would have climbed had the
game been played out Cooper and
Lynch were the battery for the For
est Stars and Tobey and Purinton for
tho Pine Trees. The hitch in the game
was reported by delegation of the
Forest stars to have been due to the
fact that they had been playing with
the ball belonging to the Pine Trees
and at the end of the fifth inning the
latter team objected to the further use
of their property; that the Forest
Stars offered to send home after their
ball., but the other team would not en-
terrain the proposition and decided to
quit.
