 HAS MET FOUL PLAY
J. l.. Kelly Has Mysteriously Disappeared Since Tues
 day Morning

J. L. Kelly, 1900 Pearson avenue, West End. has disappeared. He has not been seen or heard from since 8 o'clock Tuesday morning.
 Tuesday morning at 8 o'clock Kelly left his office at the Ryan Real Els tate company on bicycle for Wood stock, Ala, after stating his intention to stop at both McCauley and Morgan and look over some real estate at those places. He said that from Woodstock he would take the train for Tusca- 1oosa where he would attempt to cleai up a land title for the company. He reached none of these places.
 It is thought by his wife that Kell, might have met foul play. as he hao some land abstracts in his pocket. Th' police of Bessemer have advanced tn, theory that he may have lost his life in one of the swollen streams that ht would have had to pass right after the heavy rain Tuesday morning and aft. ernoon.
 Any information that might lead tc her husbands wherea bouts will be ap- preciated by Mrs. Kelly, or word could be sent to w J. Ryan of the Ryan Real Estate company of this city. Both parties have phones.
