TWO ARE HELD FOR MURDER|NG WOMAN
Aged Former Wife of One of Suspects Victim of
 Brutal Death

Haleyville, February 25.-(speciaL) Dave Garrett and Ben Overton, both young men of Dora and Cordova, were brought to HaleyviIle last night and placed in jail by Deputy Sheriff Eddie vickery, charged with the murder of Mrs. Ben Overton, near Natural Bridge. this county, last Thursday.
 The killing was the most atrocious this county has ever known. Mrs. Overton, who was an old woman, had married Ben Overtop, very young man, about two years ago-they soon separated. Mrs. Overton was reputed to have kept large sums of money on her premises. not believing in the safe ty of banks. Thursday, February IT, she visited her daughter at Natural Bridge. This was the last time she was seen alive.
 Her mutilated body was found in her pasture on Sunday afternoon. The ground around the body gave evidence that she had fought hard fight to save her life. Her head was badly beaten with rocks, and death resulted from these blows, according to physi- clans who were called.
 Overton and Garrett will be given preliminary trials as soon as possible.

On February 21, 20 counties had re- ported large enrollments. Seven of them had 100 per cent enrolment of the teachers now engaged in those counties.

The whole scheme of educa- tion from the lowest primary grades up through the state university and leading educators from other states have been called into service. and will deliver addresses before the whole bcdy. as well as aid in the departments al meetings. For the first time in the history of the association, all phases of education will be represented. The denominational, private, exceptional and business schools and colleges will have their teachers enrolled and dele- gates elected to the assembly of dele gates. This meeting means much to the state of Alabama.
 The officers of the association are; s. S. Murphy, Mobile, president; John c. Blackwell. Birmingham, first vice president; Mrs. J. M Sanders, Troy, second vice president; E. P Murphy, Gadsden, third vice president; T. W. Smith, Boyles, treasurer; H. c. Dow ling, Cullman, secretary: executive committee, T. W Palmer.

CARROLLT0N CLAIMS CORDIAL INTEREST IN
 BOY WIRELESS EXPERT

Carrollton. February 25.-(Special.1 The citizens of this county are very much interested in the feat attained by Lavurne .Stringfellow, the 15-year- old son of MT and Mrs. E. M. String
 fellow of Reform in mastering the art of wireless telegraphy to such an ex
 tent that he can receive messages at his station, located in his home town.
 Three years ago this young man be- came interested in wireless telegraphy and with information obtained in read ing periodicals devoted to the work and with the assistance of a local me- chanic who had some knowledge of the art, is rapidly proving himself real genius, and his friends are watching with keen interest his career as q wireless operator. That he is actually receiving messages at his station is borne out by the fact that many news items are picked up and the announcs- ment made previous to their publca- tion in the daily papers the following day 5st

J. T. Jackson of Benton Found Unconscious In Selma Hotel.
 Condition Is Serious

Selma, February 25--(Special.) )-Searcn for J. T. Jackson, well known planter and business man of Benton ended here this morning when he was found unconscious in a local hotel He was carried inn mediately to the Union Street hospital, where it is thought he is suffering from serious kidney trouble.
 MT. Jackson left his home at Benton for Montgomery Wednesday and was to have come on to Selma Wednesday, night to meet Mrs. Jackson. When he failed to arrive, Mrs. Jackson left Thursday for her home at Benton, which is half way between Montgomery and this place, thinking to find her husband there. Re coming alarmed on arriving and finding no word from him, she enlisted the aid of l.. M. Hooper and other friends here, who discovered MT. Jackson this morning.
 The supposition is that he arrived on a late train, and not wishing to disturb Mrs. Jackson. who was stopping at the home of her mother, Mrs. M. B. Portis. he went to the hotel, where illness over- came him.

ment controls his action. The Anti Saloon league so believes and con tends. It can find no comfort--it can find nothing but distress--as far as the sanctity of itself and it's pro- gramme are concerned, in the incom- ling administration.
 While the country, generally. knows that the eighteenth amendment will not be repealed, and that Harding does not wish it repealed, the Anti-Saloon league fears that the environment of the new administration will preclude puritanical methods of enforcement and punishment--and that as result, the eighteenth amendment will totter into even greater disrepute than it is today. Here are the facts as cited:
 Warren c. Harding, President
 elect. former owner of stock in a
 brewery.
 Harry M. Daugherty, future Att
 tOrney-EenernI. charged with prose-
 cutting all Offenses against the
 law including the prohibition
 flaw, "notoriOusly wet"
 A. w. Mellon. future Secretary 4 Of the Treasury, actually in charge
 of the prohibition enforcement bu-
 reau. former owner of stock in the
 Overholt Dfstflling company.
 The Anti-Saloon league sometime ago declared that it was reasonable" for Harding to appoint his "friend' Attorney-General. but that he must not name Mellon Secretary of the Treasury The Anti-Saloon league holds that the environment of Harding, Mel Ion and Daugherty precludes hope that the eighteenth amendment will be "nutured" and "fostered" as 1t must be, 1t Is indicated, if it is to survive.
