Neely, 70, charged with murder for the death of Hiram Cooley, 47 years ago. tiunteraville, Ala., Oct. 7.?Twelve Marshall county jurors, considering a killing which occurred before most of them were bprn, deliberated upon the fate of Jame? F. Neely, 70, accused of murder for the fatal beating in 1883 of Hiram Cooley in a fist fitfht atop Georgia mountain. Testimony and arguments in the trial were completed in half a day with the jury taking the ca^se early last night and retiring before ostarting deliberations. i wo. of the state's witnesses, one a brother of Hiram Cooley, were present at the fight in 1883. Neely was the oply defense witness. Speaking in a vdice thut wus so low the jury had to bend forward, to hear, Neely told a simple and J dramatic story of his. fight with Cooley, pleading that he fought only j in self defense after Cooley him-1 self had made the rendevous to j settle the trouble between them." I lorn Neely, a brother, who was j indicted with James Neely, was with him when the fight began but died more than 30 years ago, the aged defendant testified. j Among the trial spectators was! Oscar Cobb, 80, the only living mem- i ber of the grand jury which indicted j the Neely brothers. H. G. Bailey, the prosecutor, was born five years following the slaying, while the presiding judge, A. E. Hawkins, was only a year old at the time. Big Bond Fixed For Bank Robbers ( harlotte, Oct. 10.?'Four men who confessed to robbing an American Trust company bank truck of $64,000 October 1 were bound over to Mecklenburg superior court under $50,000 bohd each at a preliminary hearing in police court today. Defense attorneys pleaded for "reasonable bond," but Judge Currie said he took into account the unrecovered $37,106 of the stolen currency and Liberty bonds in setting bail at such a high figure. The quartet was returned to jail as counsel started efforts to secure bond. The indictment charged Carl E.' Bailey, Walter Thomas, Victor Hunter and Richard McM'anus, the latter three of Union county, with conspiracy and robbery. Hunter entered a I plea of not guilty; the others reserved their pleas. 11 YEARSCONSTIPATION GLYCERIN MIX ENDS IT. "For 11 years I tried to get rid of constipation," says Chas. E. Blair.

Station Circular 42, Winter Cover Crop (experiments at the Pee Doc Experiment Station, by E. E. Hall, W. 11. Albert and S. J. Watson, Jr., is the results of two years' work at the Pee Dee Experiment Station and in brief gives'data to prove: Hairy vetch produced an average of 02 pounds of nitrogen annually in the top growth, equivalent to the nitrogen in 55b pounds of nitrate of soda. . Monantha and Hungarian vetch produced average annual yields of 83 and 02 pounds of nitrogen per acre in the Cop growth, equivalent t<> the nitroge" ill ?>04 and .'177 pounds of nitrate of soda, respectively. Austrian winter |?eas, grown on soil .comparably to the plots on which the vetches were grown, produced un annual average of 511 pounds of nitrogen In the top growth, equivalent to the nitrogen in 310 pounds of nitrate of soda. On limed and fertilized soil Austrian peas produced an annual average of 142 pounds of nitrogen in the top growth, equivalent to the nitrogen in 802 pounds of nitrate of soda. Canada field |>eas have proven unsuitable as a cover crop, because of winter-killing. The vetches and Austrian peas, for best results, should be seeded in early fall, preferably September.
