LITTLE BOY KILLED
BY A FALLING TREE

Probably the only death in this sec
ton directly from the storm was
that of the four-year-old son of j. R.
Key, at Lillian, Ala, the little victim
having been killed by falling tree.
News to this effect was brought to
the city yesterday. Mr.. Key, who is
the son of Postmaster Key, at Lii
liam, sent to the city and procured
a casket for the little body, and it
was buried with due ceremony and in
proper form.
1t is stated that the child, on the
day of the storm, started to go from
one house to the other, and in run
ming, dashed directly under the tree
and was crushed to death.

GU, secretary for India, will go to India
next winter to take up reform of the
government there. Mr.. Moptagu said
yesterday that the policy of the British

was of an increasing association of In

ment of self-governing institutions
with a view to realizing responsible
government in India as an integral part
of the British empire. 1t has been de-
cided that substantial steps in this d.
rection shall be taken as soon as pos
