Negro Woman Killed.

Tuesday evening just after dark,
the two neighborhoods in the Bloom
ingvale section known as Hoghouse
and "Hell's Halfacre" were aroused
to high pitch of excitement BY the
shooting to death of a negro woman
named Sallie Scott, wife of James
Scott. There were no eye witnesses
to the tragedy other than the two
negro men, James Scott, husband of
the dead woman, and Ned Brown,
at whose hands the woman came to
her death, as found by the Coroner's
jury.
Brown, who is also a married man,
is a resident of "Hell's Halfacre'
while Scott lives in the Hoghouse
neighborhood. Both nelghborhoods
are thickly settled by negroes, be-
tween whom some rivalry exists.
At the inquest yesterday, held by
Coroner H U Kinder, Scott claimed
that his r-ife was shot by Brown
and Brow. swore that Scott did the
shooting. Sheriff Graham found a
pistol in Scott's house, with one
chamber empty, which was indenti-
fled at the inquest as belonging to
Scott. Both negroes are in Jail here
to await the action of the grand
jury.
DR. Jacobs held a post mortem ex-
animation and found that the ball
entered the woman's right breast
and coursed to the left, penetrating
the heart and lodging in the left side.

Hints for Girls.

Bad temper is contagious.
The woman with big feet should
never wear tan shoes.
A woman is not we'll; dressed if
she has hole in her stocking.
Home is the place where you
grumble the most and are treated
the best.
There is something wrong with
the small boy who can wait patient
ly for his meals.
There are lots of men who think
that they could run the house very
much better than their wives.
One of the great mysteries of
housekeeping is how the flies get in
when every window and door is
screened.
Some one has suggested some
things that every girl can learn be-
fore she is fifteen. Not every one
can learn to play or sing or paint
we'll enough to give pleasure 10 her
friends, but the following accom-
plishments" are within everybody's
reach:
Shut the door, and shut it softly.
Keep your own room in tasteful
order.
Have an hour for rising and rise.
Learn to make bread as well as
cake.
Never let a button stay off twen-
ty-four hours.
Always know where your things
are.
Never let day pass without do
ing something to make somebody
comfortable.
Never come to breakfast without
a collar.
Never go about with your shoes
unbuttoned.

The sell-a-bale movement is rap
idly supplanting the buy-a-bale
slogan. If a man owes his bale Of
cotton to another and is holding it
for higher prices he is obviously un-
lust to the man who trusted him.
1t simply means that he is specu-
lating at the expense Of his creditor.
Sell one bale and get that much
money in circulation, anyway.
