 Free Bridge.
CLAIM IS ADMITTED
According to Petitioner, Validity of Claim Is Not Denied But There Is Question as to Who
 Should Pay.

c. E. Philpot yesterday filed suit in the Jefferson circuit court against the board of directors of the Jeffer- son county bridge district, the Mis- souri Valley Bridge & Iron company, c. c. Kavanaugh and E. w. Jackson for $3,375.50, claimed as due for clearing the right of way for the new bridge and for preliminary work in preparation of the beginning of con- struction on the bridge.
 Mir. Philpot charges that shortly after the contract was awarded to the Missouri Bridge & Iron company for the construction of the bridge the commissioners made a payment of s35, 900, it being understood plaintiffs claim was 'to be taken care of" out of that. sum. He says he has not been paid, and that co-defendants demur as to which should pay the clalN..
 Plaintiff states that the district was created in 1911, and that the work for which he is. claiming $3,S73.- 50 was performed in 1913, at which time there was an attitude on the part of the state senate to repeal the statute creating the district be- cause nO progress had been made. He ayers that some of the defendants were anxious to make a showing before a committee of the senate, and that he was authorized to perform the services enumerated, and that the work has been of great benefit to the defendants.
 vf fN ko books of the defendants brought be- fore the tribunal that it may be de- termined who is responsible for the claim, and he have judgment accord ingly.

TAKE NEGRO FOR
 ALABAMA CHARGE
Willard Carpenter Expects to Be Hanged for Kill
 ing White Man.

In the arrest of Willard Carpenter, negro 23 years of age, members of the Jefferson county sheriff's depart ment believe they have a criminal who is wanted in Alabama on TWO charges of murder for whose arrest rewards aggregating $75O were of- fered.
 Carpenter was. arrested yesterday by DeputX Sheriffs c. C.. Green and Dave Glover, who found the black at the home of John George, an uncle. on the Curry plantation.
 The officials at Birmingham were notified of Carpenters arrest, and they wired they would send for the fugitive, asking if it will be necessary to secure extradition papers.
 Sheriff Brewster was notified some time ago to be o1 the lookout for Carpenter, who was described as a desperate criminal who went habit ually armed, and who would not hesi- tate to kill to evade arrest. Plans made for trapping the fugitive result tainipg on Honday that Carpenter was on the Curry plantation.
 Deputies Green and Glover were sent out yesterday. They caught the negro resting on a couch and before he could get to his guns had him manacled. His pistols, 3O-2O Savage automatic and 3S special $. & w. were hanging in scabbards nearby.
 q just felt sick, and thought I'd lie down awhile, and so took off my guns," said the negro ia sort of apologetic tone for being caught un- awares. "I don't know what made me do it, for that's the first time I've had em off since 1 left Alabama ' The negro's uncle bore out the state ment that Carpenter was always armed, saying the negro even plowed with his pistols strapped to him.
 "I'll tell you goodbye, uncle" he said to George as he left witt: the cf- ficers, "for unless you come over there to me, you'll never see me again. l knows they will hang me- Carpenter is accused of the kil'lE4 of transfer man in Birmingham last October. He admits the killing, but claims, self-defense. He says the quarrel ensued over $7 due him by the transfer man.
 It was also reported to the officers that Carpenter is wanter at EatoW for the killing of a policeman, but the negro denies this charge.

In case the hay used is not of this kind some of the corn chop may be replaced by linseed or cottonseed meal. In many instances brewers dried grains or crushed oats may be profitably substituted for the bran, and oftentimes gluten products can be used to advantage in place of bran or oil meals.
