ing on the case. Mr.. Reynolds, who was
prominent and well-known farmer of
st. Clair Springs had come to Birming-
ham, it is said. in search of farm labor
and had met the two negroes at the cor
ner of Twenty second street and Third

him of a young negro boy who wanted to
work on a farm and lured him into an
alley nearby, where the boy lived.
He followed them, it is understood, and
as they entered the house, which is in
the rear of 2S20 Third avenue, he was
held up at the point of large gun. the
men then went through his pockets and
in trying to resist the attack he was shot
in the abdomen. Three shots were fired,
only one taking effect. After the shoot
ing the negroes rifled his pockets, OBJ
tanning about $50, and made their es-
cape.
He was rushed to the st. vincents
hospital in Shaws ambulance where he
died a few hours later. Officers Bur
kett and Wyatt went to the scene of
the shooting and later turned over the
case to Detectives Jones and Lee for
further investigation The body was sent

burial. Assistant Coroner John R. r,
Rives will hold an investigation today at

BY EUGENE TRAVIS.

1t seems only yesterday that Jimmie
NJ Jones II blew into this bi gold town
of ours. And yet is years have worn
their weary lengths away since Jimmie
created a mild furore along Twentieth
street and Chicken Run.
James, as the deacons called him
down in Eufaula, wore a 81 Barbour
county handme-down, carried cotton
umbrella and the odor of pot ticker
fingered on his breath. Jimmie had
IL iron dollars in his britches pocket
and an ambition in his dome that au-
cured along Andy C~rnegie's boyhood
platform.
While to the local Beau Brummel of
those days James reminded one of the
boy who stood on the burning deck, the
Eufaula county product was cocksure
that his attire and prosperous aban-
don forecast royal welcome the mo-
ment he appeared on the threshold Of
the Southern club.
The glamour of the city failed to
dent Jimmie's equanimity. James had
been some pumpkins in Eufaula, and
he could imagine the moon paling and
the incandescents growing dim in Bir-
mingham as he stepped out upon the
boulevard for his first evening stroll.
If destiny had not run amuck. we
might have been writing it today

parallel with the trek of the glistenng

branched into the railroad business I'M
til Mister Misfortune took one hard
rap at the BarboXr county youngster
and when they haHpulled him out from
the debris of a Frisco wreck and Doc
Sawbones had dulled the last knife in
local surgical foundry, Jimmie M.
Jones was minus one leg.
Did he sit down on the pavement and
weep? He did not. There is no spine
less, jelly-fish stuff in Jimmie Jones
physique.
He beat It over to East Lake and
started out upon another career.
And that brings us down to the
point of the story.

That's the amount Comptroller Jones

Children

There. is no beauty
like that of a little child.
ANY little child!
He is beautiful be-
cause he is the very es-
sence of LIFE.
Joy shines in his eyes.
Vigor radiates from his
busy little person. He is
filled with Importance
and purpose, and each
day to him is a wonder
full and glad surprise.
Truly, children are
Gods human flowers.
The man who has them
rightly values tn e m
above all other things in
the world.
His thought IS entire
/. ly devoted to their we'll
being. For them he
plans, strives unceas-
ingly cherishing the
dream to attain to high
er place and better
things just for them. He
is their source of
strength, their shield
and buckler against all
hurt. He will do ANY
THING for them.
One of the things he
thoughtfully and care
fully plans for is to III
sure them against adj
versity in case of his
death. He does that by
carrying a life insurance
policy. He has taken
many a "chance" in the
past, when only he him
self was concerned; but
he will not allow his lit
tie ones to be exposed to
any hazard.
Thus, quite naturally,
he will seek the offices
of Trustees System to
have this policy written;
for he not only knows
from many a friend of
the efficiency of this
force of insurance ex-
perts, but he feels con-
vinced that, if the need
should ever come, they
will take an earnest per
sonal interest in seeing
that his children secure
the full benefit of the in
surance he has provided.
