Ask Pardon for COpiah Convict.

Officers of the penitentiary have
recommended Tom Wallace, a con-
vict from Copiah county, for dis
charge by the Governor on account
of meritorious conduct" and for.
tunately for Thomas he has two OF
three cases of meritorious conduct
to his credit. On one occasion he
discovered a fire that had been
klndled under the cage" and gave
the alarm, thus saving the build
ing. Again. he saw trusty drop
his gun and make a break for
liberty. Seizing the gun, Tom
prevented the escape of a number
of other convicts. On another oc-
casion he prevented the escape of
a convict. 1t has been the rule of
the Board of Trustees for several
years to reward convlcts who are
''good convicts." and who help the
State IN the management of farms.
Wallace has rendered good serv-
ice, and all of the trustees as well as
the superintendent signed his petit
ton to the Governor. That he will
be discharged in short while is
probable, as the Governor generally
acts on the suggestion of these off,
cials. 6

CAR SHORTAGE ALREADY FELT.

A car shortage Is already report
ed in the South In spite Of the pre-
diction of an abundance Of rolling
stock to move crops. One of the
west railroad lines has admitted
that there was shortage of nearly
200 cars on Tuesday. Tap lines
are charged with the absorption Of
box cars and the further charge is
that they do not make prompt re.
turn Of equipment and thus CO.
operate with trunk lines. Indus
tries were crippled IN 1907 BY just
such stringency; and cooperation
between shippers and the railroads
should be sustained and strict. to
avoid graver condition in the real
rush later on.
Cars are being repaired and
every line is trying to herd in its
own equipment against the time of
stress and every effort Is being
made TO decrease the shortage,

CIRCUIT court CASES
Case Of Clarence Temple, Charged
With the Murder Of Geo. Oliver,
Now Before the Court.
CASES DISPOSED OF

| Versie Benjamin. colored. charg
ed with murder. agreed to take a
verdict of guilty as charged, with
his punishment fixed at imprisop-
ment for life. in the State Peniten-
tiary. To this verdict both the
State and defense agreed and the
jury instructed to bring in such
verdict.
Referring to last report in refer
ence to the general failure of cases
appealed from the courts of mayors
and justices of the peace. it is due
to the Mayor of Brookhaven to say
that of the 20 cases appealed from
his court since January, 1911, only
two cases have failed before a jury,
while seven cases have resulted in
verdicts of guilty. In the other
cases from his court some appeals
were dismissed with writs of
procedendo, IN some the defendant
entered a plea of guilty without a
trial, and the others were mol
pressed or cessatted.
The case of Clarence Temple,
charged with the murder of Geo.
Oliver. was put on trial Thursday
morning. The State made out
about-the same case as has been re-
ported in detail heretofore, the
only thing new being the viewing
of the house by the jury where the
homicide occurred. The State con-
cluded its evidence Friday morn
ing. and the defendant, as this re-
port is made. has begun his evil
dence. There is a long string of
character witnesses for the defend
ant.
