 Acquitted by Jury

The evidence was concluded last night in the case of Tom Pappas. charged with the murder of Peter Pappas, and the arguments will be com- menced this morning at 9:30 o'clock. The case went to trial in the first divis- ion of the criminal court yesterday morning before Judge w. E.. Fort.
 The defendant and nearly all the wit nesses are Greeks and an interpreter had to be employed. The killing oc- cured on Avenue B, in 1909, and has been tried before, a mistrial resulting. The defendant plead self-defense, in- sanity. and the unwritten law. The de- ceased was killed while in the company of the defendants wife. Assistant Solici- tor Walter Brewer will open for the state He will be followed by Judge Robert N. Bell for the defense, and the closing argument will be made by So- licitor Hugo l.. Black.
 After remaining out all night the charged with the murder of William Ganaway at wylam several years ago and tried before Judge Fort returned a verdict of manslaughter in the first degree and fixed the punishment at three years In the penitentlary It is understood that an appeal will be taken to the supreme court The case was hard fought throughout and every point contested. 1t is the opinion of many of the court officials that the argument of assistant solicitor Walter Brewer was one of the ablest ever made in the criminal court
 After about 15 minutes deliberation the jury in the case of Claude over street the barbecue restaurant keeper. charged with the murder of Jake Will Hams, returned a verdict of not guilty and the defendant was discharged. The case was tried before Judge H. F. Heflin in the first division of the criminal court The defendant put in a plea of self-defense. He was repre- sented by Attorneys Mcqueen and Ellis.

would remark, Tt is no good our stand ing here; l. for one. shall return.' Then the rest would follow, and so small bands would be seen constantly coming and go- ing. When the German guns were silent for a few hours Albert would fill up but on the arrival of the first shell of fresh attack the town would quickly empty
 One day. however, after rather longer interval in the bombardment and Albert was full of her citizens, escape was shut for the enemy's guns never ceased speak ing, and the daily toll became a heavy one Now when any left it was a case of running the gauntlet, but even this did not prevent many from visiting the town for an hour or so. The roads were and are full of people coming and going one and all imbued with the same desire namely, to see their homes
 The steps of their treshold, the smell of burned carpet, or the sight of a charred and shattered piece of furniture are all they have to look upon as home.
 There are many who. in spite of the ex- amples set them, prefer the angers of living in the cellar of a ruined house to leaving the spot where they have lived from childhood.
 A story is told of young girl who. during one of the :severest bombardments, seeing shell fall in the garden, where she had hung up her weeks washing, ran out from shelter, crying to her aged fath- CT: Here comes the shells again. I must get my washing in or it will be torn.'' she had hung up that morning as around her shells burst and walls fell in, when one at length found the mark The heroic girl fell wounded

 Without Bond

Lewis King and Tom King were ar rested about 11:30 o'clock yesterday in Peach Orchard" at Twenty street and Avenue c, by Detectives Moser and Garner and Officer Edward Ball on charges of grand larceny. It is alleged that the King brothers have been stealing cattle.
 At the time the King brothers were arrested they were both asleep ana q COW alleged to have been stolen from the pasture of A. J. Russell, Hillside station, 1nglenook, about 2:30 o'clock yesterday morning, was tied to tree alleged 'rustlers" and camly hand cuffed the brothers before arousing them.

Northern France, January 30.-(Special.) Albert holds the distinction of being the city which has sustained the longest bombardment of any town during the present war; The first shell fell amongst the luckless population at 4:3o in the afternoon of September 29, and the hail of projectiles continued without ceasing until October 4. Up to that date 300 houses and all the factories had been destroyed, but there still remained certain quarters of the town which had not been reached by the enemy's fire. On October 22 the bombardment was renewed with increas sed ferocity, and again on November ? and IA. The German guns rang in the new year; there are no belles or men to ring them left in Albert.
 M. Cherau, who managed to pay fly ing visit to the town now entirely in ruins, describes it in these few worlds There Is not street or a square, not a steeple or 8 gable-end left standing.
 The inhabitants, whenever there was Hull in the bombardment, would re- turn to their ruined homes. The day the first shells fell the population quickly got
 
 on the next occasion, having profited by the experience which they had gained underground and that they were scarcely safer there than above in their bedrooms they hastily put together small bundles of their most precious possessions and made off into the open country.
 It is difficult under these circumstances to remember exactly what one wishes to save or carry away. So it was with the fugitives from Albert. They would get out far from the doomed city on their way to Amiens. and thus suddenly stop and turn to watch the work of destruc- ton. Each time a shell fell the little group would say, There goes so-and-so's S house. The women stood crying. clasp ing their little ones to their breasts; the men rigid with suppressed emotion, biting their lips, looking on in silence: the terri fled children stared towards their homes openmouthed, their great eyes haunted with look of fear
 Then one more courageous than the rest
