Young Allen, in Jail,
 Tipped Off Alleged
 Murder of ConUiict

Blocton, August Special 1.-The trit old saying that murder will out possibly may lead to the facts in the death of Alex Stonecipher, who while serving a sentense at Red Feather mine as state convict, either Stonecipher was trusty, and a first class blacksmith, being assigned to this duty at the convict mine. Tom Payton was a machinist at the Red Feather Coal company at the time. While the usual reward was offered for the missing trusty, his parents were convinced that foul play had befallen their son, and constant sarch made.
 Recent developments, possibly caused by neighborly bad feeling at Braehead mine, further down on the Mobile and Ohio railway, caused some one to talk, and this led to the arrest of Payton and his son at Gadsden early in the week, they be- ing transferred to Centerville jail.
 Bob Allen, boy about IS years old, was arrested on minor charge, and While Tn Jall at CentreVlllet IS al- legged to have made confession to the state solicitor, duplicating Tom Payton in the killing, as well as giv- ing the names of several persons who helped to bury Stonecipher after he was alleged to have been shot by the elder Payton. Allen also offered to carry the officers to where the body was buried near the Braehead mine. The entire matter will be in- vestigated by the grand jury which meets August 15.

A fire entailing a loss of thou sapds of dollars occurred Frirday morning at 1 o'clock in Bessemer when the structure, known as Fairy land," an indoor amusement place for the negroes, at First avenue and Twentieth street, was burned to the ground.
 The building was built in 1919 and was owned by F. G. Mcconnell of Madison, O., and was built at cost of 10000. It was covered by about $4,500 insurance. The equipment of the building was owned by G. W. Lovejoy and estimated at 5000, with $4000 insurance.

JEDEDIAH STRONG SMITH. THE
AMERICAN ULYSSES
q. Western Newspaper Uaion.

This is q story of modern Ulysses
frontier hero Of many wanderings,
who died without receiving the fame
which was his due, a man whose serv-
ice TO America has been but lately
appreciated by his countrymen. Jeder
diah Strong Smith was his name, and
his contribution to history was the
first accurate mapping of the great
West.
Smith was born I'm New York In
1893. AS boy he played with the
young Seneca Indians of Chief Corn
planters tribe, and learned their lore.
lie became an expert with the bow
and arrow, which he afterward car
ried ON all of his expeditions. Once
he brought down a hawk flying about
% yards above him, and he could
drive o shaft 90 the heart of buff
falo as skllfully as any Indian hunter.
In years of wandering Smith
crossed the western country on the
south from the Colorado river to the
Pacific; he crossed Ii midway from
the Rockies to the Pacific, and he
traversed 1t on the north from Cali
fornia TO the Rockies. He visited all
the Important streams from Arizona
to the Yellowstone country and he
made accurate notes of all he saw.
This information was used In correct
ing the unreliable maps of the day
and proved of inestimable value to
later explorers.
Smiths death was heroic. In 1881
he was guiding a wagon train over
the Santa Fe trail. The train had TAX
Ell short cut around the head Of the
a desert country. Water must be
found nj once. Smith set out in search
of stream, and finally reached one.
While drinking, he was surrounded by
a band of Comanches, who determined
To have the white mans gun.
The Indians signaied peace, and af-
ter talking In the sign language for a
while. they succeeded in frightening
Smiths horse. AS IL turned. they shot
at rhe scout with arrows, wounding
shot the chief dead with his rifle and
Killed two more savages with his pls-
tolls. Then grasping bis ax, the scout
dashed into their midst. They. cut
him down with their lances, but WREN
they approached to scalp him, Smith
rose UP again and stabbed three of
them with his knife. Then he dropped
dead. The Indians afterward admit
ted that he had killed 13 of their party
before he died!
