TEXAS DOGS ARE BEST.
Native BlOOdhounds Will Be Sent to
the Canal Zone.

San Antonio, Texas, Feb. Lick
as bloodhounds have just won out in
the test for efficiency concluded by
Lieutenant Colonel r. P. Stevens,
chief quartermaster for the depart
ment of Texas, U. S. A. Col. Stevens
was ordered by the war department
to secure bloodhounds for use in
tracking criminals in the Panama
Canal zone. Complaint has been
made to Washington of the many
depredations committed by Grimm
ais in the canal zone, and the fact
that the rough, broken country, COW
cred with dense tropical foliage,
made it practically impossible for the
police to follow up and capture the
criminals. Bands of marauders are
beginning to become a serious men
ace to public property and blood
hounds have been suggested as
means of protection. Colonel Stew
eens was ordered to call for dogs and
make severe tests. A number of dogs
were tried out--some from Texas
and some from other states-but
failed to hold the trail to the salts
faction of the officer. Finally a pair
of dogs owned by Sheriff John w.
Tobin of this county were tried out
They were taken to the mountains
to the north of San Antonio, and a
and kinnikinik thickets to do the
little Eva crossing the ice" act. Six
hours later the dogs were loosed and
followed the trail swiftly and uner-
ringly Notwithstanding the fact that
the soldier had used every artifice of
walking over rocks, wading up run
ming water, and in other ways tried
to throw them off When the noun
ted men came up, the soldier was up
a tree, smoking pipe and waiting
for the relief party. Sheriff Tobin
used these dogs to break up gangs
of horse thieves that used to infest
the hill country. He gives them up
to the government reluctantly, al
though he knows where he can get
others. He says the Panama thieves
are going to have a lively time when
"Old Sleuth' and "Deadwood Dick"
get on their trail.

YOUNG MAN SCARED BY BITE OF TERRIER InOcuIated Rabbit Has Recently
 Gone Mad NEGRO CHURCH IN COURT Congregation at Bessemer Divided on Question of Calling New Pastor. Personal and General News
 of Bessemer.
By J. F. LEE.

Bessemer. October 10.-(Special.)- A. Jones, young man employed at the Birmingham Southern shops, was bitten by a terrier dog October %, and they ad- vised him to sever the dogs head from it's body and send it to the Pasteur institute for examination, as the young man did not feel financially able to take the trip unless the dog had rabies. telegraphic reply was asked on the result of the examination. The head reached Atlanta that same night and in a short time telegram was received here, stat ing that no trace of bacteria germ had been found in the dogs brain. The cerum which they had examined, how ever, was injected into a rabbit, and to- day wire was received stating that 1t had just gone mad Simultaneously with the receipt of the telegram it was learned that dog that been bitten by the dog that was killed had just gone mad.
 It was rather a peculiar coincidence that the bit dog showed signs of madness at almost an equal number of haurs after the rabbit had been inoculated.
 The young man became greatly excited when he received the information and is leaving on the first train for the Pasteur institute. He has been living in Bessemer for the past two years. but his parents reside in Lomax, Ala.

Celia Perry Case.

John Howard and Henry Perry, the two negroes who were brought back from Litchfeld, H., about three weeks ago. charged with the murder of Celia Perry, since which time they have been connned in the county jail, were given prelimi- nary hearing before Justice Lopez today, and were discharged, the state having been unable to obtain evidence sufficient on which to hold them.
 It will be remembered that the negro woman Celia Perry, mysteriously dlsap- peared about six weeks ago A broken trunk, supposed to have belonged to her, was found hidden under the house where she had lived, the inside of which was much bespattered with blood. Will Inge. a negro who was rooming in the same house, was arrested and charged with the murder, and other evidence was se- cured that it was believed would impli- cate Henry Perry the woman's husband, and John Howard, but additional testi- mony that has been searched for has not been forthcoming. The negro Will Inge was released few days ago on $25O bond to await the action of the grand Jury.

Negro Church Gets Into Court.

Because a part of the congregation wanted to change pastors, and the other part didn't, the New Bethlehem Colored Baptist church has gotten itself in the courts in quo warranto proceedings. The hearing was to have come up before Judge Jackson today, but it has been postponed until Thursday evening at 4 o'clock. In the meantime, however, war rants had been sworn out against Henry Dxon secretary of the church; Floyd Jackson, deacon and sexton; Willis Walker and Willie Jackson, two mem- bers, charging two of them with will fully injuring and defacing a church, and two with "wilfully disturbing or inter rupting an assemblage of persons met for religious worship by noise, profane, discourteous, rude or indecent behavior, at or near the place." Floyd Jackson, the deacon, stated that his side had about two-thirds of the congregation on their side, and had legally called another pastor to fill the pulpit, while the minority wanted to insist on keeping the same pastor that has been serving.
