ONE MAN LACKING
TOCOMPLETE JURY
JUDGE IN RANKIN MURDER CASE
INTIMATES DOUBT AS TO
SECURING HIM.

UNION CITY, Tenn, Dec. 9.-"The
court is up against wall and does
not know which way to turn to Sc.
cure a jury" remarked Trial Judge
J. E. Jones at the close of today s
session of the trial of Garrett John
son and Arthur Cloar, alleged leaders
of the Reelfoot Night Riders. Two
jurors were secured today but, as one
secured earlier in the trial was ex-
cused on account of Illness. the panel
is still lacking one man.
Attorneys for the State insisted
that the present trial was all impor-
tant and urged that another effort be
made to complete the jury. over
1 500 veniremen have been examined
since the trial started. Judge Jones
ordered another panel brought into
court Monday afternoon and its ex-
will probably be the final
EFFORT to secure the missing Juror.

 Marvel City.
NASHVILLE TEAM COMING

Bessemer, August S0.-(Special.)-A dar- ing robbery was reported to the police this morning by M. Nicely, merchant on Second avenue. It seems that the burg lars entered the store some time Sunday night and secured several hundred dol lars worth of goods. Twenty-six suits of clothes, hats, shoes, furnishings and mo- tions were taken, and in fact the store was practically footed. From indications it seems that the thieves entered by the back door of the store, cutting out the loek with brace and bit. The back en- trance is latticed up so that no one can come near the door without first break ing through the lattice This prevents the police from trying the door during the night and consequently the robbery was not discovered until this morning. The police are making every effort to locate the goods It is thought that an attempt will be made to dispose of them through out the suburbs. All the police officers of the district have been warned to be on the lookout and Chief Wallace thinks that he will have the goods back in short time.

MODEL SCHOOL IS
 MOUNT HEBRON

Greensboro. August 30.-(Special.)- the combining of two or more of the country schools into one will be of bene- fit to a community is exemplifed in the case of the Mount Hebron school. located near Akron in this county. About six years ago two of the country school dis tricts were combined into one, now known as the Mount Hebron school. Since the combination the trustees have erected a handsome school house and last session employed a principal and four teachers, besides the music teacher. The school house Is a two-story affair, and has all necessary school rooms, each one of which is we'll fitted with the latest desks and school furniture. Besides the class rooms, there is a large chapel or audi torum.
 Last year there were in attendance upon the school something over 40 pupils. Besides the school house, the trustees have erected near to it neat cottage residence for the principal of the school.
 In the immediate neighborhood of the school there is nice church, and num- bers of families have moved in, each one building a nice home. These houses are not the average country log houses, but each and all are frame, weatherboarded, with brick chmneys and plastered rooms. Around the school has grown up quite a community and as an evidence of the class of people living there, will say there is no doubt but that the lands in that community produce more to the acre than do any other lands in this, Hale county, i. nxro no est lands in the county.
 What was once an almost forsaken com munty has by reason of the coming in of this school and the civic improvements that have come with it, become the very best community in our county from point of citizenship and civic improve ment. The lands within radius or hye miles from the school house could, prior to the establishment of this school, have been bought for an average of from 8 to s5 per acre, but now no lands can be bought in that territory for less than $25 to $30 per acre.
 Prof. R. J. Holston, formerly pres- dent of the Tuscaloosa Female college has recently contracted with the trus- fees of Mount Hebron school to accept the position of principal, and it is pro nosed to make of 1t model training school for boys and girls. Boys and girls will there be made ready to enter any of the colleges of the south, and while getting this preparatory education will be in a frst-class country commun- ity, away from the temptations of the

Nashville Americans Coming.

Beginning tomorrow, the Nashville American team will play three games with the local baseball team and the vs- itors feel confident that the locals cannot duplicate their feat of taking three games The Nashville team has had long and successful road trip and Bessemer is the only place where they have not won the series Fancher, who has been on the road with the Y. M. C. A. team of Bir- mingham, has returned and will prob ably pitch the game tomorrow as sikes pitched Saturday and Reddish is sick. It will be remembered that Fancher held down the Nashville team for 13 innings The entire team is confident that they will win the series. Some thought it unwise for the team to play the three games just at the end of the City league. but the boys are all in fine condition and it is the opinion of most of the local fans that the three games will keep them in training.
