YIELDS STOLEN
FOWL IN FIGHT
WITH POLICE
Negro, Cornered in Alley by Pa
troImen, Is Taken Only After
Terrific Battle.

Policemen Turner and Duncan
swung their nightsticks with vigor as
they patrolled their beat at o'clock
Friday morning. The policing bust
ness was exceedingly dull and they
peered into alleys and area ways, hop
ing against hope that a "Gyp the
Blood" would run out and test their
nettle.
At Piedmont avenue and Harris
street negro ran down the street
and slipped into an alley. Three
chickens squawked in his clutches.
Policeman Turner looked at Police
man Duncan.
Shall WEI" he inquired hoarsely.
Wed BETTER" replied Policeman
Duncan.
So, with Establishment of night
sticks and loud commands to stop,
they dashed into the alley after the
thief. The negro stopped, all right.
Also he flung chicken at the officers,
striking Duncan on the head.
Turner rushed into the fray while
Duncan disentangled himself. The
thief slammed chicken at Turner,
but missed.
The policeman grabbed the negro
and he began beating the policeman
with a sduawking chicken. He picked
up one Of the other chickens and then
began terrible battle-two police
men and their billies against a thief
with two live, squirming chickens.
The policemen rushed and the ne
gro lost the range. His chickens were
useless. He threw them down and
began biting. He bit both policemen.
Turner drew his pistol. The thief
grabbed it and turned it on the po-
liceman. Only the presence Of Tur-
ner's finger behind the trigger saved
him from death. Duncan knocked the
negro cold with his billy and he was
take.l to headquarters.
At the station it developed that Pc
licemen Watson and Jones had been
chasing the same thief two hours. The
negro gave his name as Henry Lang
ford. He had gone to the henhouse Of
Florence Green, a negress, at Houston
and Butler streets, and was surprised
by the woman.
She tried to hold the negro until the
policemen came. Before Jones and
Watson got there, however, Langford
pushed open the door, knocked the
woman down with a chicken and es-
capped, taking three fowls with him.

WILSON'S CABINET IS
ABOUT COMPLETED

Washington, Feb. 25.-cabinet gos-
sip took a decidedly active turn about
the capitol today. For the frst time
the democratic leaders protested to
speak dennjteiy on many phases ref9ts
ing to the offacial family of Wilson.
1t was evident something more than
speculation had come to the knowledge
of those close TO the new administra.
ton. None disclosed the exact source
Of information, however, or allowed
himself to be quoted as to predictions.
It is said the cabinet has been COM
pleted except secretaries OF war and
agriculture. Bryan for secretary Of
state, is regarded as settled. 1t is al
most as certain that Representative
Albert s. Burleson, OF Texas, will be
postmaster general, though possibly
he may be shifted to the interior de-
partment. Other names believed to
be settled are those of Josephus
Daniels. Of North Carolina, usually re-
ferred to in connection with a port
folio and William G.. McAdoo, Of New
York. The selection Of A. Mitchell
Palmer, OF Pennsylvania, as attorney
general Is considered likely. Strength
was added to the report Of Burleson's
selection to the cabinet when he today
announced he would not be a candi-
date for reelection as caucus chair
man. He gave no reason.

Andalusia, Ala, Feb. 25.-Filled up
on liquor and incensed because Sam
Spicer. Jr., a prominent citizen and
extensive planter of this county had
administered a fiogging and repri-
nlanded him a few days ago, Jim
Green, negro farm tenant, tonight
stole to the rear of Spicer's home, near
Heath, with a shotgun and probably
mortaliy wounded Mrs. Spicer, who
was preparing the evening meal.
The black assassin dropped the gun
Immediately after firing the fatal shot
and fed to the woods, where he was
soon overtaken by citizens and shot
to death, three hundred bullets taking
effect in the body.
Sheriff Livings with deputies and
bloodhounds left for the scene Of the
shooting Immediately IN receipt of a
telephone call, but the negro assassin
was shot to death previous to their
arrival.
Mrs. Spicer had the shades pulled
down at the window and was prepar-
ing supper. Mr.. Spicer and two small
children were in an adjoining room,
and it is supposed the negro shot at
the shadow through the window,
thinking he was shooting the husband
with wN3m he was aggrieved. He
made no statement before dying.
Mrs. Spicer Is sFfot in the back with
buckshot and is not expected to live
through the night. She was Miss Kill
patrick before her marriage to Mr.
Spicer seven years ago. The Kilpat-
rick's and Spicer's are pioneer citizens

On other points in the application were
telegraphed Immediately to Attorney
General Wickersham az st. Louis,

The telegram contained a strong
criticism Of the plans as previously
agreed upon in Washington between
Attorney General Wickersham and the
railroad officials and another method
o. bringing about the dissolution was
suggested. Instead Of forcing the
Southern Pacific to sell the Central Pa
cific lines from Ogden to San Fran

the Central Pacific be leased for a
long term of years to the Union Pa
cific. thus making a through line for
the Union Pacific from Omaha to San

have been the most expressive recep-
ton ever given that club.
"Of all the southern cities which
we have visited for our spring prac-
tice," said Mr.. Bernard, in the course
of an after-dinner speech which he
made, Pensacola is the first to well
come us with a banquet"
The banquet was held at the San

secretary; Alba H. Warren, Harry

hope that they would capture the
American league pennant.
PRAISES GROUNDS.
Any doubt as to the probability that
the team will return next year was
practically dispelled by Mr. Bernard.
"As far as we are able to see," he
said, 1--WE have found the best place
for our training camp. OF course" he
continued, you expected me to say
that, SO I'll supplement it with the
assertion that in the ten years we
have come south and visited other
cities with league teams we have
found here the best field ever given
us. The inf1eld is certainly the best
and your citizens are to be compli-
mented upon the trouble they went to
and the care they took to see that we
got what is needed.
SO / can say with every assurance
that it will not take much persuasion
to get us back here next season and
only hope that the weather will re-
main good so that you can have what
may be termed final assurance"
Mayor Reilly said that the people of
Pensacola greatly appreciate the ma
tional sport and are pleased to have
Cleveland here. He virtually EXTEND
ed to the visitors the freedom of the
city and told them to call on him if
there is anything which may be done
to make their stay more agreeable.

cerned in the Sneed-Boyce tragedies.
On October 1s. 1911. Mrs. Sneed con-
fessed to her husband her love for Al

Texas with Boyce and go to South
America. A few days later Sneed
placed his wife in sanitarium near

the sanitarium saying: "For Gods
sake come and take me out of this
mad house
Six days later Boyce and Mrs. Sneed
eloped. During the several weeks fol-
lowing Sneed spent $4,000 in search
ing the country for the pair. Finally
they were found at Winnipeg, Mani
toba, where Boyce was held by the

to return to Texas with him and the
charges against Boyce were dropped.
