had been declared by the white woman
the custom has been that a conviction
would follow.
Against this ironclad case of the
state Lawyer Scipio A. Jones, who
represented Williams, proved possibly
the most complete, the most sweeping
and the most irresistible alibi that has
been produced in the court in recent
years. And with it he utterly annihi-
lated the states testimony, forcing the
state to an unconditional surrender,
with the result of a verdict of Not
guilty by the jury. This meant, OF
course, the complete exoneration of his
client.
Able Defense by Attorney Jones.
Williams had been employed by the
Blissville Hardwood Lumber company.
Mr.. Jones produced an array of wit
nesses, time checks, time slips and
written records, which proved beyond
the shadow of doubt that at the time
of the alleged crime Lee Williams, the
defendant, was on duty at this mill,
which was 100 miles from the place
of the alleged crime. The proof on
the part Of the defense showed that
the prosecuting witness was mistaken
in her identification Of Williams. "She
knew Williams was the guilty man.
She knew she could not be mistaken
about it." But she was mistaken, as
Williams was not the man.
This striking illustration of the i'm
narfaofion of oil hnrap iudOrnopt
teaches a valuable lesson and should
be carefully considered by all the peo
pie, as 1t Ia Of universal concern, and
most especially should it be remem
bered by our courts and juries, not
that guilty men may escape punish
ment, but that innocent men may not
be put to death.
The court and jury of Little Rock
and Pulaski county, Ark, are to be
congratulated upon the spirit of fair
ness and justice exhibited by them
throughout the trial, which was a
great credit to that community. state
and southland. The facts in this case
and It's final conclusion illustrate the
splendid position held by Lawyer
Jones in the courts and demonstrate
his extraordinary skill and ability as
a trial lawyer.
Lawyer Scipio A. Jones in this one
case in bringing forcefully to the
minds Of the people the universal frail
ty, weakness and uncertainty of all
human conclusions as to ability to
perceive clearly. remember correctly,
describe accurately or identify truly in
addition to nreseryinp the innocent
life Of his client has rendered man
kind universal service. He has made
his way up on higher ground by close
application, dint Of hard study and la
Dor.

CHARGE AGAINST

Arkansas Jury Frees Man Ac-

BIG VICTORY FOR DEFENSE.

Graphic Story of How Attorney ScIpio
A. Jones Broke Down States Evil
dsnes In Sensational Criminal Case
In Pulaski County Circuit Court.
Case Of Mistaken Identity.
Little Rock, Ark.-The case against
Lee Williams, charged with the crime
Of rape upon a white woman in Pulas-
XII county, Ark, recently came up for
trial in the circuit court of the said
county and failed. Williams was in
dicted by the county grand jury and
faced the court with a strong array of
state witnesses against him. He was
defended by Attorney Scipio A. Jones.
According to the evidence given by the
state, the woman had been criminally
assaulted and Lee Williams was the
man who had committed the crime.
Williams had been thoroughly iden-
titled by the woman as her assailant.
She had picked him out of a collection
Of seven colored men at police head
quarters and declared him to be the
guilty man. She knew he was the
man. She had seen him several times
before and knew him. She had pre-
viously failed to identify any one of
several colored men brought before
her, but by the time she saw Lee Will
iiams she declared him to be her as
sailant. The state also produced some
testimony which supported the main
prosecuting witness
When the state closed its testimony
it was the general impression of near
ly all the spectators in the courtroom
that the state had made out an IRON
clad case and that Williams would
surely be convicted and executed. And
this conclusion was not at all strange.
for Williams was a colored man and

Exnloslon of a Flower.

Sometimes the floral spathe of a
great palm tree Will fly open With a
sound like detonation in a mine.
Such an event occurred in the botan-
ical garden in Algiers recently. The
spathe nearly three feet long, was
projected to a great distance, and for
some moments the head of the palm
tree was wreathed with golden dust
formed of the debris of the flower. The
suns heat had roasted the flower to
the color OF rust The director OF the
garden explained the explosion as be-
ing due to a fermentation in the flow
or caused by the extraordinary dry
ness of the air A violet sirocco had
Just passed. In Algeria ostrich eggs
explode In the same way and from a
like cause.-Harpers Weekly.
