 is Fined @2SO.

Mobile, Nov. 25.-fSpecial. )--.'we the jury. find the defendant guilty as charged in the indictment and assess fine of $250."
 This was the verdict of the jury in the City Court this morning in the case of the State against L.. c. Meeks, of CitroneIle, and the second convic- ton for violation of the prohibition laws during the present term of court was recorded.
 Meeks was indicted in twenty-three counts but the Solicitor struck out ten Of them. leaving thirteen. 2 Meeks was resident of Citronelle and the evidence tended to show that since the enactment of the Fuller and Carmichael laws he was found doing a blind tiger business. When officers went to his place of business 1t was brought out that some one threw two cases of liquor from an upper floor window. When the first cage struck the ground every bottle was broken. but the thrower was not so fortunate with the second as some of the bottles remained intact and were used in ev- idence. It was charged that Meeks threw the liquor from the window. In other counts 1t was charged he sold prohibited liquors.
 The following were the jurors: Hem ry P. Loding. foreman; Benjamin Cas- ton. Jr, Joseph J. Pollok. Ike Fitzger- aid. Joseph Wisenhunt, Robert Thomp- son, Edward Alvarez. John T. Slaugh- ter, Patrick MeDonough, Paul Semler. 1 Adriano Rubira and John M. Farnell. IF.
 The case was given to the jury at 1 SIS o'clock last night and 1t was 1:30 o'clock this morning when they reach ed a verdict. They came into court shortly before 9 o'clock this morning, and Judge Semmes received the yer dict. the jury then being dismissed for the day and the court taking holiday. An appeal will be taken.
 About two years ago Meeks was in- dicted for violating the law which pro- hibited the sale of liquors within two miles of a church in Citronelle.
