Cullman, September 23.-(Special)- )- Judge D. w Speake is holding two weeks term of the criminal division of the cir cult court. Almost all of last weeks busi- ness consisted of cases which had been upon the docket for some time. The most notable case was that of Luther and Ed Parker, two brothers, who were charged with shooting and killing one Johnson, married man. This was one of the most sensational shooting scrapes that ever oc- cured in this county: during the melee a younger brother of the Parker boys was shot and killed.
 This case has been bitterly fought and contested, having been twice passed upon by the Alabama supreme court. The first trial resulted in a 25-year sentence for Luther Parker and while an appeal was pending Parker went to the penitentiary and served nearly two years. When the case was called this term of court a rather pathetic scene was enacted, Luth- CT Parker agreed to plead guilty if the case against his brother was nolle pressed and he was sentenced to serve seven years In the penitentiary.
 George Beckwith was tried for stealing a COW and as result of his stepping aside from the straight and narrow path he received a sentence of two years in the penitentiary. Contrasting this sentence with that of Willis Bone seven years for manslaughter. it would seem that life is verp cheap.

New Southern Railway Of ficiaI Will Engage Quar-
 ters for Office Force

For the purpose of finding suitable quarters for the general passenger of fees of the Southern Railway company which are to be opened here, James Free man, lately appointed assistant general passenger agent, with headquarters in Birmingham, will arrive today. He will have charge of the Birmingham offices as assistant general passenger agent. The ticket offices in the Empire build ing will not be affected by the new ar engagements, but MT. Freeman and his of- flee force cannot be accommodated there. He will engage a suite of rooms perhaps in one of the downtown skyscrapers. Probably he will be in the American Trust building where the Southern rail- way has at this time an entire floor
 Mr Freeman while here will probably make some additional arrangements in reference to his headquarters here. The establishment of the offices of an as sistant general passenger agent in Bir- mingham is the first move of that kind ever taken in this city or state. There fore in local railroad circles the act of the southern is looked upon with a great deal of favor and as an indication that the company thinks unusually well of this point.
 The company by this move promotes Mir. Freeman, widely known passenger man, to a high position while K. l.. Bay Tor of this city goes to Atlanta one step higher and Mitchell Coxwell, for long time city passenger agent, Jumps past a traveline passenger agent and lands in the office of division passenger agent, The promotion of MT. Coxweli IS looked upon as a distinct compliment to him. He has been the recipient of congratula- tions upon. his promotion.
 The entire business in Alabama of the passenger traffic department or the Southern win be handled here by MT, Freeman and Mir Coxwell. The business that has heretofore been handled by (, A. Benscoter. assistant general passenger agent at Chattanooga, will be taken from that official materially lessening his work and will be handled within the Alabama zone by experienced traffic men.
 The indications are that the headquar- ters will be arranged without delay
