LETTERS TO EDITOR
That Admission Mob

10 the Editor of The Age-Herald
In regard to an article in your paper
of the Sd, concerning the killing in An
niston, it seems whoever gave Won the
story doesn't know much about it as IT
happened. | will tell it as I remember it,,
being sister of one of the men shot.
There was something printedfin the Hot
Blast about Lawrence he didn't like. He
decided to kill all connected with the pa
per, which was printed over two stores that
had steps leading up with little landing
and window at the top. Well, on a Sat-
urday evening in the fall of SO or 81, the
furnace whistle blew for fire (our fire
alarm at that time) and Edmonson, Chap
pie and and Triplett ran to the little WIN
DOW on the landing to see the fire, and
Lacey, who as accounts go, had been made
almost drunk by Lawrence and been hired
to shoot up the Office, was at the foot of
the stairs, shot at them. hitting all three
not killing either. but making invalids OF
Triplett for year and a few days and
Chapple for six years, but suffering all
the while and death relieved Them But
Edmonson still lives at oxford, Ala, 10
my best knowledge.
But if Conner or anyone else started a
mob | never heard word of it, but if he
did more's the pity. They did not sue
ceed, for then as now the laws were slow
and money won out and Lawrence walks
a free man, while we only have the MEM
ory of brother slain. OF course, people
were indignant over the killing then as
they get now and if brother had died then
or soon enough to get them for murder,
John NJ. Caldwell would have got the
case to represent us in prosecuting them
as probably he might have known so it
there had been any mob it would have
been money to him to keep ii down. but
Comers part would have been simply
sympathy for the afflicted families. but 1
believe if there had been mob my
brothers would have known about ii.

About DIR. Evans Story

To the Editor of The Age-Herald.
That boy DIR. Evans told us about in the
Sunday Mornings Age-Herald is a Won
derful freak of nature. I think it was
Fennimore Cooper who told us in his writ
ings of an Indian that could smell, or
scent, persons and animals at a distance
I have often been amazed at the queer
conduct and eccentricities of some people
but have never seen a human being who
possessed the faculty like that of a dog
of following the trail of a man. 1t cer-
tainly is a very remarkable discovery, and
no doubt will attract wide attention. We
all know of the instinct of animals
horses, dogs, and cows have been known
to travel many miles, swimming rivers,
endeavoring to return TO their old homes.
Most dogs get the smell from the ground
weeds and bushes. but some dogs chase
the game by catching the scent from the
air. 1t is well known fact that horses
have the power of seeming the air and
become frightened, especially at the smell
of wild animals. And so it is mysteries,
and more mysteries and who is able 70
solve them? We are glad to hear from
DIR. Evans each Sabbath morning; he is
pleasantly remembered among us.
/ cannot imagine where one advanced
in years could find more real comfort and
enjoyment than in restful home, living
a quiet life with plenty of good books,
and congenial neighbors and a trip now
and then here and there. At last there
is nothing in the rush and whirl of life,
enticing it is true, and sometimes beauty
flashing around. and about us, but like
the morning glory covered with dew you
fix your gaze upon it and exclaim, SO
lovely You step to one side and return
to look again. and the dew drops and the
flowers have vanished
Doctor we do not envy you and your
country home; we only wish that We had
one with such pleasant surroundings.

GREY EXPLAINS
ENGLISH DECISION
ON EXHIBITION
Commercial Matters Re-
spOnsible for Decision Not
to Participate in the
Panama Exposition

London, August 1.-THE question of Brit
ish participation in the Panama Pacific
exposition was debated in the House of
Commons this afternoon. 1t was sug-
gested that private enterprise might sup
ply the impetus necessary for British
representation which the government de-
clined to furnish.
Sir Edward Grey. secretary of state for
foreign affairs, explaining the official at
titude of the British government main
tanned that the decision of the cabinet not
to participate was entirely due to COM
mercial matters. Sir Edward Grey said:
''The British government came to the
conclusion that under present circum-
stances 1t would not be justified in ask
ing the country to incur the heavy ex-
penditure required for participation in
the exhibition. This expenditure was es-
timated at more than $1,250,0O0 and such
a sum would be quite out of proportion
with any commercial advantages likely
10 result from it,
No Active Desire
Inquiries into the commercial CEN
ters of the United Kingdom had not
shown that there was any active de-
sire to participate.
THE conditions for participating
laid down by the exhibition authori-
ties prescribe that exhibits shall be dis
tributed among series of international
pavilions. thereby rendering it impos-
sible to secure an effective national
display
The question was considered and
dealt with on these grounds without
any reference to the question of Pan
anna canal tolls.
The British government has done
nothing to discourage participation in
the exhibition by the self governing.

John OConnor. a nationalist member.
questioned the estimate made by the
government as to the expenditure and
pointed out that Great Britain's out
lay at Chicago was only 100000, while
at the Japanese. German and the
French expositions 1t reached only
100000.
Conditions Not Same
Sir Edward Grey pleaded that the condi-
tions We're not the same at San Francisco
and that the governments estimate had
been reached by inquiries on the spot
Alpheus Morton, Scottish member
suggested that in view of the govern
ment's "disinclination to help the exhibit
tion," private individuals or the city of
London might take the matter up. as was
the case with the French exposition of
1889
Sir Edward Grey in reply stated that
the government would not think of doing
anything to discourage participation in
the exposition by private individuals. lie
