Clayton an attorney from Muscogee, L. T. was struck by a passenger train on the Alabama Midland Tuesday night and probably fatally injured. Clayton has just been admitted to practice before the Supreme Court and is pretty well known over the state. EX-POSTMASTER HIGDON ACQUITTED T. W. HIGDON, who was arrested last week charged with robbing Higdon post office, was tried before Commissioner Parks at Scottsboro and dismissed. Higdon was postmaster at the time it was charged that he robbed the office. LIVELY ABOUT GADSDEN The Elliott Car Works, the Welles Pipe Works, the Southern Manufacturing Company, the Kyle Lumber Mills and the long leaf Lumber Mills are in full blast, as is also the Alabama City Furniture Factory, and the Dwight Cotton Mills, besides numerous other improvements. SMALLPOX NEAR MONTGOMERY Three cases of smallpox have been discovered on the plantation of Dr. Henry Stone, about eight miles from Montgomery, and some alarm is felt here at the closeness of the disease. Competent physicians are in charge of the cases, and every precaution has been taken to prevent the spread of the disease. BURGLARY AT SCOTTSBORO At Scottsboro W. J. Robinson’s store was broken into last Tuesday night, and robbed of about $40 worth of goods, mostly watches and jewelry. The burglars, supposed to be local persons familiar with the house, gained entrance through the back door. No clew(sic) was left abut the watches may be identified if any attempt is made to dispose of them. TWO ACCIDENTAL SHOTS Hollis Williamson, who lives near Gadsden, shot himself in the left leg while carelessly handling a pistol. The wound is not a dangerous one. Arville Lay, a 10-year-old son of W. P. Lay, accidentally shot himself in the hand Wednesday with a 32-calibre rifle. He was climbing over the fence when the hammer of the gun struck the fence and was discharged with the above results. KILLED BY LIGHTNING During a thunderstorm Wednesday evening, a negro named Eli Powell, living on Mr. J. J. Davenport’s plantation, near Letohatchie, was struck and instantly killed by lightning while going from his lot to the house. A fine mule belonging to Mr. Davenport, hitched about fifty yards away, was killed at the same time. Eli was a good farmer and a good citizen, respected by white and black. MURDER TRIAL AT SCOTTSBORO The preliminary trial of John Little, charged with the murder of Charles Judge, was held before Probate Judge Brice last week. The evidence introduced showed the Judge had made remarks about Little, a desperate fellow, attacking his reputation and had threatened Little’s life. One morning last November Judge started to town and met Little, who began firing at him immediately, one shot taking effect in the leg. Judge seemed to improve and was able to be out after about two month confinement, but one of the arteries in this leg burst last week, death resulting. A GOOD WORK BEGUN A night school was started at the Factory Chapel, Selma, free to all children and grown people working in the mill. Thirty-five pupils entered the school and it was organized for work. There is a dearth of books and slates; many of the children are too poor to buy. The good people of Selma are requested to donate any old books used in the public schools, primers, readers, arithmetic and geographies. The books should be sent to Mrs. E. H. Hobbs, Mrs. Frederick Waterson, Mrs. M. R. Jarvis, or J. S. Bridges CURIOUS FREAK OF LIGHTNING ALL BACK HOME AT LAST Wednesday morning the northbound train on the Alabama Great Southern railroad came in to Tuskaloosa with an extra coach filled with returning negro emigrants who left Tuskaloosa something over a year ago for Mexico. It will be remembered that in February 1895, a Mexican craze, created and fanned by the glaring tales of labor agents spread like wild fire among the negroes of this immediate section, and hundreds of these deluded creatures hurried off to that land of promise. It was not long before they found out the deception that had been practiced upon them. For months past they have been coming back in small squads as they could work their way, and yesterday’s arrival represents the last miserable remnant of dupes. They say that they are back to stay – and there is little doubt of the truth of what they say. Tuskaloosa will be good enough for them hereafter. Some of them seem to have very little idea of where they have been; they only realize that they didn’t find that paradise that they had expected. A GEORGIA SHERIFF SHOT – A Desperado, With His Son And A Friend Resists Arrest A fatal tragedy occurred at Concord, Ga., last Thursday night, in which two men were fatally shot. About 7 o’clock Sheriff Gynn and a posse went to the house of Taylor Delk, a notorious desperado, to arrest him on a warrant for robbery and assault to murder. As the sheriff arrived at the door he was fired on through a window with a Winchester, the ball passed through his left side. About fifty shots were fired. Sheriff Gynn was lying on the front porch begging for some one to come and get him. When Mr. John F. Madden attempted to drag him off he was fired on, the ball passing through both thighs, breaking both legs. Delk, his son and an escaped convict and a partner of Delk’s named Tom Langford were the occupants of the house. All three ran out the back door, shooting and cursing. The posse fired back, but failed to bring down any of them. A posse with dogs went in pursuit, with favorable chances for capture. Governor Atkinson was wired for more dogs and asked to offer a reward. Sheriff Gynn was, at last report, in a dying condition. Mr. Madden was resting easy.

PAGE 3 THE APPEAL Issued Every Friday Hamilton, April 10, 1896 CLUB RATES J. H. STONE, of Bexar was here yesterday. Judge COOPER is suffering with rheumatism. Dr. J. F. EARNEST, of Winfield was in town this week. J. R. and A. A. PEARCE, of Bexar were in town yesterday. Fishing is the order of the day, but we don’t see many fish. W. B. CRANE, of Bexar, was here on business last Wednesday. J. F. HAMILTON visited relatives near Barnesville last Saturday. RODDY CLEMENT, of Winston county, was here on business the latter part of last week. FRED LAWRENCE and Miss LUELLA MARTIN visited relatives at Guin last Saturday and Sunday. FRED LAWRENCE has donned a broad brimmed straw hat, trimmed with red, and joined the horny-handed brigade. Prof. J. B. HOLLEY, of Bexar, gave us a pleasant call while in town on last Saturday. Call again, Joe, we are always glad to see you. Miss NETTIE OZBIRN returned home Wednesday from Jasper where she has been visiting for the past few days. She reports a most pleasant time. Dr. J. T. GANN has entirely recovered from measles an in a few days will be located in town, ready at all times to put your masticating apparatus in good shape. JOHN D. HAMILTON has planted a melon patch just back of the Appeal office, and it is only a light leap from our window to the ground. JOHN is, indeed, a clever fellow. Messrs. GORGAN, ARNETT, and PRICE of West Va. are in Hamilton this week buying up land. This means well for the people of Marion as they will learn ere many months have passed. We were unable to attend the entertainment given by the P. H. L. Society at the college building on last Friday afternoon, but learn that it was a success in every sense of the word and highly enjoyed by all present. Messrs. CLIFF FRAZIER and LEE CRUMP, two dashing young men from Guin, spent last Saturday and Sunday in Hamilton. Our town has become very attractive to these young men all at once –but we will mention that later on. Rev. S. B. SMITH preached two excellent sermons here last Sunday and Sunday night to large and attentive audiences. The church was prettily and tastefully decorated with flowers and evergreens, which added much to the beauty of the Easter service. The rendition of the beautiful Easter songs by the choir was very good and greatly enjoyed by all. The May number of The Delineator is called the commencement number. Its forecast of Summer Styles, in dress and millinery is complete, including, beside the display, a number of Commencement Gowns and a chapter on the latest ideas in attire for bicycling. Its illustrated descriptions of the latest designs in embroidery, knitting, tatting, lace making, etc., complete a magnificent number. INSTRUCTIONS TO VOTERS BEXAR NEWS The farmers of this vicinity are busy preparing land and planting their crops. Health in this vicinity is very good. We believe that Bexar beat will poll its full democratic vote in the primary Saturday. There seems to be a great deal of interest among the people since the candidates passed here. The Clark men are singing low – there are not enough of them to constitute a quorum. We hear some of the boys saying that if certain individuals are nominated they will not support the ticket. That, in our opinion, is not democracy at all. We have our choice now but after the primary we expect to support the nominees, whoever they may be. We think all who vote in the primary are under obligations to support the ticket. Mr. T. H. LENDSEY of this place is the champion corn grinder, having ground 2016 bushels since December 18, 1895. Mr. J. W. MCKENZIE and wife have returned from Walnut Grove, Miss. where they have been teaching during the fall and winter. Success to the Appeal. PLEBIAN, Bexar, April 6 ITEMS FROM TWIN Health good in this section. Fine weather for planting and our farmers are enjoying it. Candidates are skipping around now but they will soon have to go to work. T. A. VAUGHN met his appointment at Freewater last Sunday. L. G. AKERS of Guin passed through our town this week. J. L. CONNER is still rabbit hunting. W. N. VAUGHN was here yesterday. J. T. WESTBROOKS is engaged in fishing these days. He caught an eel the other day that measured 22 inches. W. E. WESTBROOKS killed a fine turkey a few days ago, and he will lose a crop now trying to kill another. We learn that the Goldmine people are rolling logs and making rails just like winter time. A. W. FRANKS has returned from a visit to relatives at Spruce Pine. J. W. BURLESON has 25 acres planted in corn and is not yet done. Hurrah for free silver and the Appeal. BLUEBIRD, Twin, April 7 PIKEVILLE NEWS WILLIAM CANTRELL is up again after a spell of measles. A Sunday School was organized at Philadelphia Church last Sunday with the following officers: J. O. BOLIN, superintendent; J. M. MOSELEY, teacher of Bible Class; Miss NELLIE STANFORD, teacher of children’s class. The school will meet on the first and third Sundays in each month at 10 a.m. Rev. MANLEY, the circuit rider, preached at 11 o’clock, after which a church conference was held. We understand that a Sunday School was organized at Liberty Church of Sunday evening. Quarterly meeting for this circuit will be held at Center Church on the first Sunday in May The funerals of the wife and daughter of Mr. JAMES GANN, both of whom died last Sunday, will be preached at Liberty church on the first Sunday in June at 11 a.m. by Rev. MANLEY. Measles have been causing quite a scare in this community. Several of Mr. TOM TERRELL’S folks have had it, and Mrs. TERRELLL has had quite a time with it. It seems strange that folks should get mad at the Appeal for condemning election frauds. It seems stranger that they would let anybody know they are mad. The purity of the ballot box, whether in general or primary elections, is a permanent consideration, and is above faction, party or other issues. PLOW BOY, Pikeville, April 7 DETROIT GLEANINGS We are having some delightful weather now. Capt. J. D. MCCLUSKEY delivered on excellent speech here last Saturday on sound money. It was characterized by common sense and sound logic. Our Easter exercises were delightful. The egg hunt the night before Easter was enjoyed by the young folks. The exercises for Sunday were well arranged and very instructive, every member of the class performing their part well both in song and recitation. After the exercise, Bro. WILSON delivered an able sermon on the resurrection of the body. The house through large was filled to its utmost, and all in all the occasion was a delightful one. Miss ELLIE MORTON of Vernon will teach a class in instrumental music at this place. HOWARD CRUMP, the charming horseback rider, of near Henson Springs was in town last Saturday, and while here attempted to ride a champion pony of this place. The result was that Howard measured his length in the sand. JOHN & TOM, Detroit, April 8 Buy your stationery from Mrs. E. H. CLEMENTS. A good supply always on hand at the very lowest prices.

PAGE 4 -----(small ads)----- Ad for Hood’s Sarsaparilla HOUSEHOLD AFFAIRS TO CLEANSE LACES Delicate white laces may be cleaned by laying them smooth on wrapping paper and covering them with magnesia; put another paper over this and place them between the leaves of a book for several days. Brush out the white powder and the lace will be found to be as fresh as when new. THE AMERICAN KITCHEN – A French chef has jotted down in his notebook a few of the causes of waste in an American kitchen: Scraps of meat are thrown away Cold potatoes are left to sour and spoil. Dried fruits are not looked after and become wormy Vinegar and sauce are left standing in tin. Apples are left to decay for want of sorting over. The tea canister and coffee box are left open. Bones of meat and the carcass of turkey are thrown away, when they could be used in making good soup. Sugar, tea, coffee and rice are carelessly spilled in handling. Soap is left to dissolve and waste in water. Dish towels are used for dish cloths, napkins for dish towels and towels for holders. Brooms and mops are not hung up. More coal is burned than necessary by not closing dampers when the fire is not used. Lights are left burning when not in use. Tin dishes are not properly cleaned and dried. Good, new brooms are used to scrub kitchen floors [The Chef] PALATABLE, WHOLESOME DESSERTS FIG PUDDING – Half a pound of figs, one-quarter pound bread crumbs, one teacup milk, 1 ½ ounces sugar, three ounces butter, two eggs.
