CastIeberry, Ala, June 11.-Straw-
berries on the berry plantations in this
section are rotting on the vines, and
farmers are standing to lose thousands
>o1 dollars because of the sudden and
almost complete exodus of colored farm
hands from this county following the
intense race feeling and threatening mob
violence on account of the killing Of a
white farmer by two colored boys.
Excitement Followed Killing.

gagged in fight with Charles. Saren,
white, resulting from an automobile
collision, and killed him. The two men
escaped to the swamps heavily armed,
and all efforts to locate them have prov
ed futile, although the country teens
with armed posses intent upon dealing
summary justice to the two colored men.
Following the killing, feeling between
IHe races ran So HiSn lnaC IloIS were

All Colored Residents Threatened.
Failure to capture the slayers so in
furiated the whites that threats were
made that unless they were captured
every colored man in town would be
whipped. These threats had an unex-'
pected result in the fleeing Of practic
ally all the colored farm help of the
county. Agriculture is now at stand
still and unless the colored farmers
can be induced to return, all crops will
be practically failure.

WHOLE JURY OF COLORED MEN
St. Louis Justice Sets Precedent in
Trial Of Replevin Case.
UNHEARD OF BEFORE
Probably First Time in America That
all Colored Jury Has Been
ImpanelIed.

Impanelled.
ST. Louis, June 1l.---For the first
time, perhaps in the history of the
country, twelve cOlored men were Sc
lccted to serve on jury here
Cases have been known when three
or four members of the jury in a single
case were colored, but there is no rec
ord of more than six colorcd men scrv-
ing on any single jury.
The case was that of Henry Daley
against Laurel Shelby, on writ Of
reDlevin and was set before Justice Nc
Chesney. The men selected were: Jesse
J. Crow, VIM. Moran, NJ. BroolStield,
Market II. Higgins, W. H. Murphy,
John Carmical, Joe Box II. A. Smith,
A. Seay, BENZ. Hollway and R. E. Har-
ris.
After the jury had been selected
and were in their places it was found
that the counsel for the plaintiff was
not in court and the case continued.
Colored jurors were first introduced
in the Justice of the Peace courts
through the influence of Constable
Charles A. Turpin during his term in
the Fourth District court. Joseph Fur
ling, counsel for the defendant, stated
that in his more than forty years prac-
ticc as a lawyer he had never before
seen complete coored jury. Justice
McChesney declared that all persons
concerned in the case were colored and
it seemed to him perfectly fair and
proper that colored jurymen should
make the decision.

Dreco has given him prompt
relief and advises the public

II advise everyone who has a slug

street. indianapolis, Ind. +
Il often had to get up five or six
times during the night; this broke up
my rest very badly and next morning
I'd be tired out and not fit for work,
my liver was lazy which gave head
aches, dizzy spells and that no-account
feeling, my food did not digest we'll
but lay heavy in my stomach.
'Dreco put a stop to all this and
now I sleep the whole night through
without waking up; 1 never have a
dizzy spell nor a backache. Dreco did
me SO much good that my wife is also
taking 1t and it has about relieved
her constipation and nervousness. Both
of US are great believers in Dreco and
have told a lot of our friends about it,"
Dreco acts on the bowels and re-
lieves constipation, rouses a sluggish
liver to full action, strengthens the
kidneys; purifies the blood: quiets
the nerves; induces sound sleep and
acts as tonic to the vital organs,
giving renewed energy and resistance.
All good druggists now sell Dreco and
it is being especially introduced in
Richmond by Glenn Thistlethwaites
