acknowledging that he had fixed
his vouchers and checks to straingh-
en- out his accounts but asserting that
he had never profited one cent by
reason Of holding state office in a
wrongful manner, F. A. Clark, state
oil inspector, of Everett, was re-
moved from office today by Governor
Hay on the grounds of inefficiency
and misconduct. The state Oil in

A STRANGE STORY
By Mrs. John Edmonds, Who Was Abb
Quoted from Her Home While Living
at Slidell, La.

Birmingham, Ala, March "A spe-
cial dispatch from York, Ala, to the
Birmingham Age-Herald tells the fol
lowing weird story:
A case of almost the dead coming to
life happened here last night when Mrs
John Edmonds, wife of John Edmonds,
formerly of Soatpa, and this place,
walked into the residence of her father
ir-law, William Edmonds.
Mrs. Edmonds was kidnapped at her
home at Slidell, La, year ago and
with the exception of little inscription
under the lap of an envelope, written by
her at the command of and signed by
the BLACK hand" demanding money for
her release, nothing had been heard OF
her.
A year ago Mrs. Edmonds, after see
ing her children asleep, went out i'll the
back yard to see if the chicken house
was locked. After attending to that she
turned to go to the house but was seized
by two men. She screamed but hood
was thrown over her head. She claims
she was taken to the bayou, where an
other man was waiting with launch
She was strapped to the bottom of the
launch and was carried some distance
where she was released Of the straps
put in a wagon and driven some dis
tance to an old ante-bellum house. Here
she was carried to a room on the second
floor and there stayed until December
81, when she was told by her captors tc
prepare to leave, that they were mis-
taken in the family as they thought they
were wealth. She was carried at nigh
through the woods to the same launch
and with another lady and two mer
were put off, after a short run, within
two blocks of the Louisville and Nash
vile railroad at New Orleans.
A ticket was bought for her and thi
lady confederate to Birmingham vi;
Mobile. They intended to take Mrs. Ed
monds to Birmingham and leave her
Upon arriving at Mobile she lodged TIL
woman who was with her, caught tn,
train back for New Orleans and thei
came to Birmingham over the Alabam;
Great Southern railroad and then, afte
short stay there, came here.
Her husband has left Slidell and sh
was unable to locate him. Mrs. Ed
monds said she was treated with the ut
most respect, was given everything sh
wanted and was very kindly treated b.
all while confined.

LETTERS BY TELEGRAPH
Western Union to Inaugurate a New
Service Known as Night Letters at
Nominal Rates.

Announcement is made by the West
ern Union Telegraph Company that 1t
will shortly be prepared to handle long
right messages at the rates customarily
charged for ten word day messages.
1t appears that the Western Union
has a large mileage of wire at night
which is not earning anything These
wires must be maintained in any event
to take care of the regular day business,
and it is apparently the idea of the new
interests in the telegraph company toilet
the public have the benefit of them. The
announcement states that p special
night letter service will be established
as soon as practicable The charge for
this service will be the standard day
rate for ten words, for the transmission
of fifty words or less, and one-hfth Of
such standard day rate will be charged
for each additional ten words or less"
To be taken at these rates might let.
tiers" must be written in plain English
language, that is to say, code words or
communications written in foreign Ian.
guages will not be accepted. The mes
sages will be taken at any hour up tc
midnight and transmitted at the com
pany's convenience during the night fol-
delivery the following morning. For the
present the new service is confined tc
Western Union Offices in the United
States. The tariffs charged for night
letters are so low it is expected that the
new service will be largely availed of by
business concerns and others to quicker
their correspondence by using the tele.
graph instead of the mails. A night let
ter sent by telegraph viii reach its des-
tination at the opening of business hours
the following morning, thus saving a.
much as three or four days when Ions
distances are involved.

occurrence will be to make attorneys
more cautious in asking for new trials
in cases of homicides in which a COM
promise verdict has been secured. Here
tofore. in practically all cases, the de-
mand for new trial when granted has
resulted favorably to the defendant, but
the New York case proves that the very
opposite may prove to be the case and
that the customary play for delay may
result in the utter undoing of the Grim

AN EXTRAORDINARY CASE
On Second Trial Is Convicted of Muir
der in the First Degree.

New Orleans Picayune: Ordinarily
the average murderer brought to trial in
an American court of justice escapes
either partially or completely the just
punishment he has merited. Recently,
however, a case occurred in New York
in which murderer, after having es-
capped the electric chair through a kind
hearted jury, was later retired on an
application for new trial and was as
sessed the death penalty.
The murderer in question was indict-
ed for the murder of saleman in de-
partment store in New York City. On
his first trial the jury returned YER
dict of guilty in the second degree,
which enabled the convicted man to es-
cape the electric chair. The lawyer IN
the case, in pursuance of the custom
airy dilatory tactics, applied for new
trial, expecting that it would be refused,
thus opening up the way for an appeal.
To the surprise OF the lawyer and his
client the court granted the application
for a new trial. The second trial ended
in an unqualified verdict Of guilty, per-
hitting the court no alternative but to
sentence the murderer to death in the
electric chair.
Evidently the first verdict, which was
more lenient than the murderer de-
served, was the result Of compromise,
while til second verdict was straight
decision, in accordance with the evil
dence submitted. leaving the defendant
in a much worse position than If his at
torney had advised him to accept the
FIRST verdict,
the result Of this rather remarkable
