No Kick in Watermelon.

Juice of the watermelon contains a high content of sugar and table sugar has been made from it, but not in a commercial way. There is one peculiarty about the watermelon: Un- like nearly all other plants, fruits and vegetables having sweet juice, good wine has not been made from the juice of the watermelon Cantaloupes, on the contrary. when their juice Is fermented, and distilled, produce a good quality, or a bad quality, of brandy, according to ones point of view or palate. But the watermelon is innocent.

Except for clout of cried Pandanus-fiber twisted about his loins, gorget of pigs teeth and the pig tails that tangled from his ear lobes he was entirely naked. His dull, shifty eyes were liquid; his hairy, deeply scanned face was contorted frightfully; and his; hands were pressed tight against his stomach When he got near enough to be heard he opened his mouth wide and began to jabber in almost unin ntelliglble heche-de-mer English,

PLEA OF GUILTY.
 ENTERED BY GREEN
Anniston Lawyer, Too Ill to Enter Courtroom, Admits
 Fake Divorce Charge

Anniston, May 26.-(Special. )-Too i'll to walk up the steps of the federal building, Judge James F. Green, former city recorder here and who was in- dicted at the last term of the federal district court under a charge of using tho mails to defraud by the alleged sale of forged divorce decrees at a ua:form price of s25 each, drove to the front of the courtroom Thursday aft ernoon and entered plea of guilty to the charge made against him by the government,
 The indictment of Judge Green about a year ago under several dozen cases of alleged sales, created a sensation of wide range in Alabama and Geor- gia, most of the decrees having been furnished to residents of Georgia, many of whom are said to have re- on the strength of the worth less documents furnished in exchange for the $25 fee alleged to have been charged in each case.
 Judge Green has been III at his home here since before the indictment against him was returned, a bond Of $1.000 having been required of him after the finding of the indictment last year.

CLAIMS ROADS IN
 STATE DETERIORATING
By Associated Press

Washington, May 26.-Alabamians clashed today when representatives of the United States Good Roads associa- ton and of the Bankhead Highway as- sociation appeared before the Senate committee at hearings on the Town- send bill to establish federal high way system and a federal highway committee
 The argument between J. A. Roun- tres of Birmingham, representing the Good Roads association, and Senator Heflin, a member of the postroads committee, started when the former on the witness stand gave his unqualified approval of the pending bill. Senator Heflin immediately declared the pres ent law covering federal aid to road building was good enough"
 MT. Rountree replied that the pres ent act had resulted in building Of little dabs of roads" and that many of the roads were rapidly deteriorating because there was no provision com polling their maintenance
 The Alabama senator questioned the latter assertion, and MT. Rountree ex- claim ed
 Why there's a road running out from Birmingham built several years ago with federal money, but not main tained adequately, that has become SO rough that milkmen starting to town with sweet milk find their cans full of buttermilk when they reach Br- mingham."
 MT. Rountree added that $2,000,0 900 had been spent by the federal governs ment on roads in Alabama, but that many of these highways had become almost as bad as they were before they were built"
 Senator Heflin called tho attention
The Birmingham age-herald., 1921-05-27

of the witness to the Provision in the Townsend bill giving che Federal high way commission power to select road routes and declared that it might de- state.
 T don't believe that any federal highway commission, appointed by the President Mir. Rountree asserted, would buck Alabama's two senators and ten congressman. Furthermore, I believe Senator Heflin has too much influence with you Republicans ro make any such danger probable"
 Declaring that he had only intended to make preliminary statement, Mir Rountree protested against being nut on trial by Senator Heflin and other committee members. Then turning to the Alabama senator, he added:
 am one of the working demo- crats of Alabama who have worked for you for all of the offices you have wanted since you were 21 years old"
 Senator Heflin also c1ashed with Mrs. W. B. Edmondston, of Decatur, Alabama, who told the committee the farm women of her state wanted no more of the county roads that start nowhere and go nowhere"
 She said federal aid should be de- voted to the building of interstate roads, and the farmers themselves would build the roads leading to these highways.
 Mrs. Edmondston added that political influence" was dictating where roads should be built in Alabama. Replying to suggestions from Senators Hefl;n and Mcclellan of Tennessee, that the present law was working all right, Mrs. Ednondston said fit might be all right, but in Alabama it mas left us in the mud.'

Local Data

riding Boswell said he was arrested one time on charge of carrying concealed pistol, and that strength took a prominent part in the prosecu- tion.
 Rufus Cannon, state constable, was recalled to the stand by the state and testified that Strength told him ne sold a pistol taken from Charley Mil ner to J. J. Harwell for SIS and one taken from another person to Cl1ftoro Haney for SIP. Harwell testified that he did purchase pistol from the sheriff for $10, but did not know where the sheriff got it.
 When Cannon was cross examined by Strengths counsel he denied that he ever told man named Little that there was a frame-up against strength or that he ever made the remark in crowd at the courthouse that he wanted to be sheriff and that he would give Golden a job if he was appointed.
 Among the witnesses who testified that conditions regarding the dispo- sition and handling of liquor in El- more county had been bad were w. D. Mcqueen, John Jones. T. $. Robblns' M. D. Graham and Cannon and Bos- we'll
 The testimony of Golden before the grand jury which was read Into the record by consent of the state ana defense was that he wrote check to Emory Holly for the amount strength is charged with taking from Charley Milner, negro, when Mlner vas ar rested on a charge of carrying con cealed pistol. He said he did not know what became of the money.
 A. c. Haney's testimony, which was read to the court, was that he loaned Milner the money which was paid to Sheriff Strength at the time descrloeo by GoIden's testimony. Throughout Haney's testimony before the grand jury the state sought to prove that the check was for only >$20, but that Milner returned to Haney s25, thus giving Strength s20 and Haney So. Haney said he didn't know the amount of the check and could not find out as the check had been misplaced. However he did say Milner returned to him S25 later and that if the check was for S2O he made s5 in the deal
 SAID SHERIFF SOLD PISTOLS
 Haney also testified before the grand jury that he heard some talk about Sheriff Strength getting rich selling pi stols taken from persons and thae he thought Strength at one time said ho was shipping pistols by the bar rel, but he regarded the statements as a joke.
 Buck Baker, a member of pre- vious grand jury which investigated the sheriff's office, was called as the first witness for the defense, but Chief Justice Anderson explained that any testimony regarding things that occurred before the grand jury would have no weight with the court, and Baker was dismissed.
 Dewey Strength, son of Sheriff Strength, was called to the stand and denied that he ever sold or gave away liquor in the county jail or that any
