SHELBY ON MISSIONS

Talladega, July 1.-(Special )-Saturday morning there was held a conference of Presbyterian laymen attending the first annual encampment, at which Dr. Flynn addressed the workers and went into the details of the assembly's plan of financing the church. This session was presided over by Mr. Sibley, and after the address and departure of Dr. Flynn this earnest and able layman spoke on "The World Obligation of the Layman.' MT. Sib- ley began by saying that at the great missionary meeting of laymen held in Birmingham he had dedicated his life to this movement, and he was here in keep ing of this pledge. By means of charts and figures he made clear to the minds of all that the foreign field is where the laymen will dind his most abundant har- vest, and gave the characteristics of a standard missionary church.
 This evening at o'clock MT. Sib- ley told of his trip around the world and the work of the missionaries in the far east
 Tomorrow nt Il o'clock, Dr. Carr of the Government Street church of Mobile will preach in the commoiious pavilion to those who have come to the meeting, ana to the many who will go out from the, city.

WARRANTS NOW
 WORTH NEARLY PAR
Appointment of Commission Has Already Strength
 ened Huntsville Credit

Huntsville, July 1.-(Special.)-The ap- pointment of the three commissioners for the city of Huntsville: R. l.. O'Neal, K. Ey. Smith and Lawrence Cooper, has al- ready had a notable effect in boosting the valse of outstanding city warrants, which have been issued during several months past in payment of current indebted ness. Until a few weeks ago the war rants had practically no value, then when the commission government proposition won the warrants were negotiable at 80 per cent. Now they are nearly worth par. The commissioners will devote themselves soon after taking office to some measures looking to the payment of the floating debt and bond issue IS probable.
 Lawrence Cooper, one or Governor O.Nears appointees on the commission, e,nounced last night that he had not S',Il,, made up his mind whether he will accent inc appointment. He is very hrsy man and would be making per sonal sacrifice should he accept put many of his friends are urging him to make the sacrifice.

.SAYSHER BROTHER .' 3IS DONE INJUSTICE
Mrs. Brakefield Maintains McGuffin Was Justified
 in Cunningham Killing

Anniston, July Especial. )-Mrs. W. M. Brakefield. who resides at los Stephens avenue, has given out signed statement in which she makes defense of her brother, Will s. Me- Guffin, who is in jail on a charge or having killed Officer John L. Cunning ham in this city in a battle between McGuffin and officers last Sunday aft ernoon.
 Mrs Brakefield says that the public has done her brother a great injustice. She says that he acted purely in self defense when he shot Officer Cunning ham, declaring that any other man would have acted similarly under the circumstances. She further ayers that the prisoner was irresponsible when he fired the shot and says that 1T the city officials had enforced the prohi- bition law the shooting would never have occurred.
 Referring to the arrest of Will Ray field and Charles Alloway, whom Me Guffin charges with selling liquor, Mrs. Brakeffeld says that they deserve pun ishment charging that Rayfeld wanted to cut her brothers throat after he had been shot, The trial of the two men has been postponed until McGuffin Is able to appear against them.
 Mrs. Brakefield says further that she and her brother have nothing but sympathy for the family of the dead officer, and that she deeply regrets the fact that her brother has the blood of any man on his hands. She says how ever, that she thinks the public should not condemn the imprisoned man with out hearing.
 Considerable interest Is manifested In the sermon to be preached on Sunday evening by pr. " F. Marlborough, pas tor of Parker. Memorial. Baptist church, on Lessons of Last Sundays Tragedy, the killing of Officer Cunningham by w. S. McGuffin in pitched battle, being the inspiration of the theme.
 Auditor William M. Brandon, who made a special trip. to Jacksonville this week to audit the books of the State Normal college at that place, has completed his labors and returned to the state capital, from which place he is expected to make a report within a few days.
 The Methodists of the Talladega dis trict will hold a conference at Jackson vile next week, beginning on July at the Methodist church. About 135 dele- gates are expected to attend the confer ence, a large number going from this city. The convention will last three days.
