Surely, with a foundation of such
courage. the better part could be
brought out
Then he wondered what Anne would
say to the adoption, or, rather. what
advice she would give, for he felt en-
tirely sure Of her broad humanity out
side of their one difference. He felt
the need of her practical sense. Soon
he had drifted into thinking of Anne
entirely-not bitterly now, but with a
steady longing. The gray light Of the
waning moon sitting through the
boughs was the true lumina for rev.
erie. Why had he not answered her
letter? Perhaps by this time
What was that moving in the grass?
He had noticed a sort Of something
before He threw up his right hard
in threatening gesture to frighten
the intruder away.
Instantly he got his answer. and an
icy wind seemed to ruff his hair-that
insistent. dry. shrilling sound that will
make a mans blood turn cold If any
thing will. the whirring defiance Of q
rattlesnake.
Jim thought quick and hard, with
chills and fever coursing over him ad
libitum. He did not want to waken
and brighten the boy. He managed to
; slip his arm out without disturbing
the sleeper. But now! There wasn't

Jim thought Of the rope he had used
for a cinch and made for It with his
eye on the snake lest the latter should
approach closer to the boy.

heft Of the rope be returned and
struck with all the strength Of his big
body and pounded away IN a sort OF
crazy rage. although the nrst stroke
had done the business.
He snapped the sweat from his
brow as he looked down at the still
writhing reptile.
MY God! What might have hap
pened If the boy hadn't walked me7'
he thought. The superstition Of the
miner rose in him rampant. II believe

in his enjoyment of the mystery O.

]. A. GRESHAM
 IS SHOT BY NEGRO Has Very Narrow Escape From Fatal Wound in
 the Head

l. A. Grisham, a motorman on the North Bessemer car line, received an ugly wound above the left eye last night when he was fired upon by an unknown negro at the corner of Tenth avenue and Twenty-fourth street, in Bessemer.
 When seen last night Mir. Grisham stated that the negro wanted to ride on the front end of the car and that he had asked him to go inside. The negro finally went inside, but at the corner of Tenth avenue and Nineteenth street he came out again. MT Grisham states that he pushed the negro back into the car for the second time. When the car stopped at Tenth avenue and Twenty fourth street the negro got off.
 There was a large crowd of negroes waiting to get on the car at this point and after they had all got on Mir. Grisham states that the negro fired once at him, the bullet taking effect above the left eye. Mr. Grisham fired five shots at the negro as he fled down the street and says that he thinks one of his shots took effect.
 Upon arriving in Birmingham MT Grisham immediately went to the St. Yincent's hospital. where he had his wound treated. Although it is nothing serious. it is very painful. The shoot ing took place at 9:15 o'clock. The ne- gro made good his escape in the crowd
 Hospital authorities state Mir. Grish- am's escape from a serious if not fatal wound is remarkab ble considering where the bullet struck him. The ball glanced on the skull bone and did not enter the head

Knozvs Little Of
 Coal Strike Situation

London. February 26.-On the eve of the resumption of the conference be- tween Premier Asquith and other cab inet ministers and the miners repre- sentatiyes, which marks the most crit ical stage of the government efforts to avert a general coal strike, the na tion is kept actually in the dark as to what has been accomplished toward peace since the negotiations on Febru ary 22 The miners then informed the premier that they were powerless- to agree to anything until authorization had been obtained from the miners federation which will meet here tomor- row. As a consequence subsequent con- ferences have been with the coal own CTS alone.
 It was announced tonight. however, that the executive of the miners fed eration had decided to recommend to the conference the acceptance of the premier's invitation that committee be appointed from the federation to consider the whole controversy with the cabinet.
 Todays conference between members of the cabinet and the coal owners la sted two hours, but the official re- port given out contained not the slightest hint as to what transpired.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1912-02-27

Meanwhile the strike was actually be- gun.
 A few thousand miners in the Derby shire district ceased work at noon. To- morrow several thousand more notices expire, while on Wednesday 100000 miners may desert the pits on notices already handed in
 One hopeful feature of the crisis is that the absence of indictment to vio- lence by responsible leaders of the men. No objections have been raised to the employers getting the necessary labor to keep the pits open during the strike. Even in South Wales, where the controversy has been the most bit ter, this arrangement has been made, and the South Wales miners federa- tion issued an appeal tonight to the men not to gather at the collieries, and to abstain from violence.
 Unless the owners agree to concede minimum wage, which the miners of all sections deem infexible, a national strike would seem inevitables but there is undoubtedly an optimistic feeling abroad that the government practical ly has succeeded in persuading the owners to yield for few months at least. It is believed in some quarters the government has undertaken to re- imburse them, if yielding on this im- portant point results in any loss but it is all a matter of surmise.

ROOSEVELTS ANNOUNCEMENT
 TOPIC OF MUCH DISCUSSION

Montgomery, February 26.-tSpee1aLp The announcement of Col. Theodore Roosevelt that he will accept the nom- ination for President if it is rendered to him, was the topic of much dis- cussion in local political circles today, The declara tion of Colonel Roosevelt was received with little surprise though considerable difference of opinion was expressed as to the probable result of his entering the race for the republican nomination.
 According to the opinion of several prominent democrats in the city the nomination of Roosevelt would go far toward disrupting the republican party, thus leaving clear field for the dem ocrats to win a brilliant victory. Sev- eral declared that while the west would probably support Roosevelt in the event of his nomination. the east would oppose him on account of his progressive views, the friends of Taft assisting in an effort to humiliate the aspirant for a third presidential term.
 Others declare that Roosevelt is by far the strongest man in the republic an party and that he stands an excel lent chance to secure the nomination. Those who regard Colonel Roosevelt as the biggest republican of the day un-t

LETTER CAUSES
 BIG STORM IN WASHINGTON
BY WALTER HARPER

Washington, Febrary 96.-(Specal.)- Theodore Roosevet's announcement last night that he is candidate for President precipitated storm in Washington politi- cal circles today. The final conclusion of the whole matter seems to be that Ameri- cas- only living ex-President has robbed himself and the country of the dignity of the honor
 A feature of the announcement, which has no parallel in the history of American politics, is that it has driven some Of his strongest admirers from him to the sup port of President Taft. His radical posi- tion expressed in his Columbus speech is more than many of his close friends fol- low. Yet there are thousands, perhaps millions, of people in the country who will fall in behind this, l will say, peer less leader of his party.
