GETS LIFE SENTENCE
Sam BltIer Sentenced at District Court Satur
day. Met Sentence With Same In
difference Shown Through
Trial

The motion for a new trial
OF the Sam Bitler murder case was
argued at the district court before
Judge Finley here on last Saturday.
County Attorney Beck, was here from
Kiowa county to represent the state,
and Attorney Hodson, Of Eureka, rep
resented the defendant. The motion
for new trial was over ruled by the
court, and sentence was passed on
Bitter, the only sentence that could
be given him for the offense he was
convicted of-a life sentence in the
penitentiary.
Bitter showed no signs Of any
emotion while sentence was being
pronounced, but sat in the same in
different attitude which marked his
appearance all through the trial.
Bitler's attorney will have the case
reviewed by the higher court, but
there is little chance, it would seem,
Of fgetting q new trial.

THE whole doctrine of
Devoe Lead and Zinc
Paint turns on these
three points:
1. 1t is all paint and true
paint.
2. 1t is strongest, and goes
farthest paint.
3. 1t is full measure.
Because these three things
are true, Devoe Lead and Zinc
Paint takes least gallons for
the job; looks best all the
time; lasts longer.
There is no such argument
for any other paint; there is
no other such paint; the man
who uses Devoe gets the best
he can get, in paint.

THE HoMELY POTATO.
its Glriefn, Development, nnd Nearest
 Reiatives In Vegetables.


 ftn DrtGiu. Development, nnd Nearest
 Relatives In Vegetables. Dayton News
 The origin of the potato was prob ahlv tue to the fact that a part of the stalk became bruised. thus causing sort of stoppage to the flow Of starch which the roots were sending mp into the stalk. It became buried in the earth, perhaps through the rains beating upon it, and as the starch was deposited at the obstruction. an en- iarxement of tuber was formed. The seed from the knotty stalk naturally produced plants that tended to have tubers upon them-and so on until the well-developed potato came into ex- iEtence.
 Tn this connection 1t might be stat ed that the tomato plant and the to- bacco plant are of the same family as the potato, showing plainly that at one time in the evolution of plant life there was but a single parent of all three. Indeed, 1t would be possible, in the course of time. to develop any one of the plants from the other, and Luther Burbank has succeeded in blending the potato and the tomato until he has produced a vegetable that is neither the one nor the other, but having some uf the qualities of each.
 Another thing about the potato that may appear curious to those who do not understand chemistry Is that a potato which grows above the ground Is poisonous. You have probably seen potatoes growing at the roots of a plant where they were partly exposed to the light. If you have. you have noticed, no doubt, that they were green and if you have tasted the part of the potato in the light. you have also dis. covered that 1t was very bitter, not unlike the taste of green tobacco.

D0LIvE CONVICT
 CAMP ABOLISHED

With the recent decision by the Con- vict Department of the State of Ala bama to abolish It's convict camp at Dolive, Baldwin County, the camp was broken yesterday and the thirty negro and i've white convicts, who have been serving sentence there. were brought to this city last evening on the Louis- ville and Nashville train by Dan T. Tray chief clerk of the Convict De- partment, and Transfer Agents B. M. Travis and c. L.. Parker.

 The convicts will be transferred to- day to some of the other camps and la boring places throughout the State. where they will serve the balance of their sentences Twenty of the mum Der will be taken to the Henderson and Boyd Lumber Company's mill at Richbourg in Coffee County. while thir- mines near Birmingham. The other two will be sent to the walls at We- tumpka.
 The convict camp at Dofive has been abolished by the State because the lease had expired and all the lumber in that vicinity had heen cut. The camp has been in existence at that place for the past twelve years. during which time many of the States con- victs. served their time out there.

 It is a scaly eruption of the neck face and wrists. and is usually accom- panied by mental disorders. The great majority of the eases discovered have been in asylums.

DEPUTIES PLUSH
 NEGRO CRAP GAME

While out scouting early yesterday morning about o'clock In the quest of gamea Deputy Sheriffs Harry Me- Cord and Bill Frizzle raided a crap gamo on the Lower wetumpka road. about mile and half from the city and placed six negroes, Paul Proffit, Henry Harris. Ben Julius, Ed Taliiver, Willie and Kid Davenport, under arr rest.
 Just after they had crossed the rail- road near Epperson's store, the depu- ties were attracted by the inspiring strains of fiddle which was waited to from house back in the woods. Hitch ing their horse they started to inves- tigate. Upon coming closer the husky sounds of seven come 1even." 'nine's my point' and you all crapped," told them that a game was in progress.
 Reaching the cabin the deputies peeked in the window to see what they were up against and then Deputy Me- Cord knocked on the door. Who's there!" called a frightened voice. The sheriff," promptly replied the deputy. Immediately the light was extinguished and there was shuffie.
 Close in on them, boys" Deputy Me- Cord calledNn a loud voice. while Dep- uty Frizzle, in the rear of the house, made enough noise for dozen men. The negroes thinking 1t useless to at- tempt an escape, opened the front door and surrendered.
 On the way to town after the arrest, one of the negroes said, From the noise you all made and from the way you talked, thought there was a dozen of you. If I'd a known there was only two. I'd sure run"

FORECAST OF NEWS
MANY MEETINGS TO BE HELD THIS
 WEEK.
Result of sutton Inquiry May Be An- nounced so0n--F0reigp Af- fairs to Be in Pub-
 lie Eve

gathering of far-reaching influence will be the twentieth annual session of the Trans Mississippi Commercial Con- gress at Denver this week. The meet ings will open on Monday. and continue through the week. Governors, mayors, merce and other similar organizations throughout the country will be present.
 Other meetings of the week will in- clude the National Fraternal Congress on Monday at Boston; the American Association of Farmers Institute on Monday and Tuesday at Portland, Ore. :; the Irish Catholic Benevolent Union of day at Norfolk, Va, and the postmas- ters' convention on Thursday at Tole- do, O.
 The record of the naval inquiry into the death of Lieutenant James N. Sut- ton of the United States marine corps. recently concluded at Annapolis, will be in possession of the Navy Depart ment at Washington early in the week, and 1t is possible that the result of the inquiry may be made public within the next few days.
 The war maneuvres will be contin- ued by the arNy of the Department of the East on the New England coast this week, and at the same time the Atlantic squadron will engage in naval maneuvres of the Virginia capes.
 Foreign affairs will have a large place in the weeks news. The Cretan situation Is a delicate one. and 1t bids fair during the coming week to give the powers of Europe much concern. particularly as it carries a threat of war between Turkey and Greece.
 Crete Is a tributary state to Turkey but since 1898 it has been under the protection of Great Britain. Russia, France and Italy, who declared they would safeguard its autonomy. This guardianship came to an end July 37.
 The population desires union with Greece and has time and again voiced its sentiments in this direction. Since July 27 there has been Q recrudescence of this popular demand. which resulted, among other things. in the raising of the Greek flag at Canea. Turkey has asked Greece for statement to the ef- feet that she has not ulterior motives in Crete. The Grecian answer was re- garded by Turkey as plea in evasion, and she has insisted upon a more ex plicit answer. , Sunday, August 22, will see the open ing at Rheims. France, of week of aviations, in which aeronauts from France, America, Austria and Italy will take part. Glenn H. Curtiss, the offl- cial representative of the Aero Club of America, is the only American con testant, but a number of Wright bi- planes will be piloted by foreign aero nauts.
 There is reason to believe that Spain's warfare in Morocco against the Riffs will continue for some time to come. General Marina, the Spanish commander, has close upon 10000 men under his command, and Spain has sent to his support every available vessel in her navy.
 General Marina has been preparing for a week or more for a decisive ad- vance against the enemy, which prob ably will begin Monday or Tuesday.
