NEGRO NOT CAUGHT
PURSUIT OF GRIFFIN ALLEN CON-
 TINUES.
AssasIant of Jesse Henson Still Hiding in swamps of Perry County. BlOOdhOunds Returned to
 Selma.

Selma, Nov. 21.-(Special.) )-Police oficer Logan and Detective Hayes who left here yesterday afternoon with their bloodhounds to trail the negro Griffin Allen who Thursday morning shot and perhaps fatally injured Jesse Henson at his home in the eastern part of Perry county re- turned to Selma this afternoon.
 Detective Hayes stated that the bloodhounds took the trail of the ne- gro from the home of Henson and fol- lowed it to the swamp In which it is believed the negro is now hiding. The swamp is a mass of tangled under growth apd water and the hounds could not follow the trail of the negro to his hiding place.
 The citizens of East Perry have the swamp surrounded and 1t is believed that the negro has no chance of get ting out of the swamp without being captured.
 Mr. Hayes stated that all of the citi- gems in that section are armed and that they are keeping a sharp watch for the negro.
 The feeling among the citizens is intense and if the negro is captured 1t will take some effort upon the part of the cooler members of the posse to keep the younger ones from lynch Ing the negro.

WORK IN THE SOUTH
THIS SOCIETY PROMOTES INDUS
 TRIAL EDUCATION.
pr. Humphreya Elected President, and the Atlanta Meeting Comes To CIOse-C, B. Gihson
 Sneaker.

Atlanta. Ga, Nov. 21-With the report that the society now has 1000 active members scattered throughout, the United States. the National Society for the Promotion of Industrial Education closed it's second afinual convention here today.
 Alabama and Georgia are the South ern States in which the members of the society are most numerous. The society also has organized State com- mites in twenty -eigh States.
 It was reported at the final session that a great amount of information con corning industrial education has been distributed during the past week.
 The one great struggle in America today" said c. B. Gibson, of Columbus, Ga, ak<the closing session of the con yention today, ''is not for supremacy in music, art, language or learning, but for a mastery of the markets of the world, through the universal industrial efficiency of the people.
 "rhe manufacturing interests or America are rapidly coming to domin- ate all other interests and are intiu- encing in no unmistakable way the so- cial ideals of the American people. If the ideal be the transformation of boundless stores of raw material into the products that contribute to the needs and comfort of man, industria' training in the public schools, will be the best means of promoting social en1- ciency.
 If the ideal be the symmetry and strength of the human body, athletics may well be the means of promoting so- cia1 efiicfency.
 If discoveries in science be the ideal the school laboratories will become the workshop through which social eficien- cy may be increased"
 pr. T. M. Ballet, dean of the Sehooi of Pedagogy, of New York University said:
 "so far as elementary schools are concerned ,the following forms of voca- tionaI and industrial education are pos sible: Cooking and sewing, drawing, color work, design and elements Of in- dustrial art. schools in the shops of manual train' ing high schools. This has been cone in a certain number of cities, where there are such day high schools. This is the easiest sort of trade schools and the least expensive to establish.
 "Our whole evening school system needs overhauiing. Elementary in- gtructfon for foreigners" Dr. Ballet added, facilitates at night for students forced to leave day schools to continue day school studies and extensive pro- visitor, for instruction in drawing and design are some of theN reforms 10 be made in such an overhauling."
 The following officers were elected: Dr. Alexander c. Humphreys, of Hobo ken, N. J., president; Walter o. Kerr. of New York City. vice president; Freder- Ick B. Pratt, of Pratt Institute, Brook lyn, treasurer.
 The secretary will be elected by the Board of Managers.
