When the court convened in after
noon session at four o'clock the
grand jury was called and retired,
following which petit jury in the case
against J. M. Shivers charged with
illicit distilling, was empanelled and
the following answered to call: Clar-
ence Chris, w. F. Breen, j. M. Per-
kins, D. F. McKinnon, c. C. Chancey,
R. A. Bombay, D. D, Douglas, H
Wolfe, N. Mex Oerting, Fred Thomp-
son, S. A. Johnson and julius DAN
lies.
e. J. Lewis, Deputy United States
marshall was the first witness call
ed and testified that he had discov-
cred tin can still near the property
of Shivers in Calhoun county which
had been used recently, and there
was no other house nearby the place
than Shiver's. Other witnesses for
United States who were in the party
with Deputy Lewis testified to the
same facts, and then Shivers took the
stand in his own behalf. His plea
was the still did not belong to him.
In his charge to the jury Judge
Sheppard said that the evidence in
the case was purely circumstantial,
which was as good as any other, and
that the size of the still made no diff
ference before the law. The case
was then given to the jury, which
was out about twenty minutes and
returned verdice of guilty.
The next and last case on the dock
ct for yesterday was that against JEFF
Pope, charged with illicit distillery
Pope entered a plea of not guilty
to the charge and stated that he did
not have the still for the purpose OF
manufacturing liquor, but that he had
found it and thought it looked pretty
good and took it home with him.
Deputy Lewis was again called fol
the government and testified that he
and party of others had discovered

sTITUTIoN OF THE GULF
COAST BUREAU OF PUBLICI-
TY.

James F. Phillips, chairman of the
committee on permanent organization
of the Gulf Coast publicity bureau,
has completed draft of the consti-
tuition and bylaws of that body, which
he will submit to j. Mclaughlin Of
Chipley, and DIN Campbell, the other
members of the committee, for their
consideration and submit the whole to
the next meeting of the West Florida
association.
When the West Florida publicity
campaign was launched at Chipley
several weeks ago the committee was
appointed to draw up constitution
so that the body might be made per-
manent and start work Immediately.
From an outline of the articles can
be gained a general idea and pur-
poses, and scope of the association
can be gained from section of article
I, which states its object as that to
foster, encourage and develop the ag-
ricultural, mercantile and industrial

interests of the counties of West Flor
ida.
In its provisions for membership in
the body, section / of article 2 sets
forth that individuals, firms and cor
porations interested in the growth of
this section shall be eligible for mem
bership.
AS for the executive officials of the
organization, section 1 of article 8,
provides that there shall be a presi-
dent, a vice president, a secretary and
treasurer. Each county in West
Florida shall be represented by one
director and the officers and directors
are to be known collectively as the
board of directors. Section of the
same article provides for the election
of officers, appointment of commit
tees and grants the board of directors
the power to elect such employees as
may be necessary from time to time,
to carry on the work of the organi-
cation.
Article four provides for an annual
meeting to take place at point chos-
en- by the board.
AS soon as the constitution is pre-
scented to the other members of the
committee and given final form, it
will be presented to the association at
the next meeting.

JUDGE SHEPPARD IN
CHARGE SAYS LAWS
MUST Be UPHELD
REFERS TO RECENT OUT
BREAKS OF LAWLESNESS IN
CHARGING GRAND JURORS TO
DO THEIR SWORN DUTY.

The federal court for the Northern
district of Florida convened for its
May term at $3.50 yesterday morning
with Judge w. B. Sheppard residing.
The first action after the court con-
vened was empanelling grand jury
composed of the following with ]. u.
H. Barker as foreman: VIM. Alfred,
Robert G. Caldwell, Rudolph Collins,
Jr., Fred Massey, J. P. Thornton,
Jno G. Welsh, Martin w. Peterson,
Henry Antoine, Thos. ]. Holt H. F.
Brazil, w. H. Beacham, Daniel Ander-
son, Steed Graham, J. G. McSween,
Burrus Cawthon, E. P. Weston, w.
B. Williams and D. P. Murchree.
After the jury was empanelled
Judge Sheppard charged them and
touched on the recent outbreaks of
lawlessness which he said people at
tempted to excuse on the ground
that it was the only way in which
the law could be enforced, as the fail
ures and delays of justice, due to the
neglect of juries in performing
their solemn duties, rendered necess-
airy some such action by the people.
Continuing he stated that net only
must public peace and good order be
preserved but the citizen must be
protected as well, and that the time
has come when all law abiding citi-
zens must use their influence in ar
resting and bringing to trial those
responsible for the defiance of law.
The petit jurors were then called
and number were excused, which
made it necessary to call specia
venire of twelve, after which the
jury qualified and was accepted.
No cases were brought for trial
during the morning session, but the
criminal and civil dockets were
sounded and cases set for the term.
There are more white slave cases
than at any previous term Of the
court.
There is also much interest cen
tered in the cases against /. j. Diai
and others charged with violating
the neutrality laws by shipping arms
into Mexico. This case will be call
ed Thursday morning when argu
ments on exceptions to the libel t

the still, not set up, on the place of
Mr.. Pope, and a half barrel of beer
near the still. Pope explained to
the jury that he had put the beer,
which was present from a friend,
in a barrel with some corn to make
it ripen and taste good, and that he
had not used the still for the purpose
for which he was accused.
Several character witnesses were
called to testify to tie good reputa-
ton and standing of Mr.. Pope in the
community, after which Assistant
United States District Attorney
Beall presented the case to the jury,
and Judge Sheppard charged them,
The case was then turned over to the
jury which was out about fifteen
minutes and rendered a verdict of
not guilty.
S. M. Savage, who entered plea Of
guilty to the charge of illicit distill-
ing at the last term of court, was
sentenced to serve thirty days, begin
ming July first The date was set
several months off SO that crop Mr..
Savage has planted would not be a
total loss.
The court then adjourned until
this morning at $50 o'clock.

In his minstrel performances, Mr..

his topical hits, and last night the
local "take-offs" were clever and di-

given by these minstrel men were
good, but perhaps it fell to Miss Geor-

get closest to the audience.
