DEPART OR DE
IS COMMAND
Given by the Black Hand to
Citizens of the Coun-
~ Of Randolph.

ELKINS, Nov 21-Members nj
the Black Hand Organization or per-
sons purporting to be members of
that Organization, are busy in this
community and have sent threaten
Ing letters TO John Collier. of this
city
Several years ago Mr.. Collier left
ISlkins and went 70 Texas where he
resided for some time and the rea-
son he left was because his life had
been threatend Thinking that the
parties who had threatened him, had
either forgotten HON or they had
left the country. Mr.. Collier moved
back to Elkins a few weeks ago and
has been making his home with his
father, w. H. Collier.
Thursday he rec aiyed a letter sign
ed with a skull and cross bones
which stated that If he expected 10
remain for any length of time he
might expect his life as the penalty
which the alleged Black Handlers
would inhict. Mr.. Golfers father
also received letter which stated
that If he continued to harbor his
son his dwelling and barn would be
destroyed and If in the destruction
of the :Ttme his life was taken the
cause would be advanced that much
more
The reason assigned for the en-
nifty which the Black Hands holds
against AR Collier Is that he was y
member OF a jury which returned 4
verdict OF guilty against one of the
members and on account of that ver-
diet the member had been sentenced
to lie term In the penitentiary.
Mr. Collier has never been a member
of any Jury which convicted anyone
of the crime Of being 4 member OF
the Black Hand society or any other
criminal society for the exceIIcn:
reason that no such case has ever
been tried in Randolph county Aud
although this fact was made public
before his departure for the West
the person or persons who wrote tho
letters gave It no heed and continued
and still continue their prosecutions.
When the first letters were receIv.
ed, the people of EIkins generally
speaking looked. upon the affair as L
practical Joke but since Mr.. Collier
return and the letters have been sent
again, the citizens have ceased 20 re-
gard it as a pleasantry and are very
much fncsnsed that persons are al
lowed to perpetrate such actions. The
public Sentiment is with Mr.. Collier
and II any violence is attempted tho
blackmaiIers VIII find ont that they
are living in civilized community
and not amid the hills OF half civil
lized Calabrla.
The county authorities have some
clues which point to certain parties
and they are making a thorough In
vestigatIcn OF the matter. 1t Is
quite likely that they will appeal to
the government for assistance and II
they do so the Postal Department
will detail special detective to In
vestigate the alleged criminal con
snIrncN.

CITY WATER SUPPLY
IS AGAIN EXHAUSTED
Pumping System SUSPEND
Operations Until Another
Stagnant Pool is Found.

The ely water supply was again
exhausted Saturday morning as a re-
suit OF the long drought, and it be-
came necessary to suspend operations
at the city pumping station on the
West Fork river
For some time Superintendent
CaIlaghan mas had TO resort TO auxiI-
Iiary pumps and pipes for the pur-
pose OF pumping water from pools
in the river down to the pumping
station. These pools are being ral'-
idly exhausted and it is necessary to
extend the auxiliary pipes farther
and farther up the river. Another
such extension had to be made Sat
urday morning.
Superintendent CallaEhan is nego-
tiating with the owners OF the West
Milford dam in the West Fork with
the object of getting the supply OF
water behind that dam down to the
pumping station.

the New York World.

NEW YORK, Nov 21-What ,pur-
ports TO be an absolute, accurate and
authentic synopsis OF the interview
obtained from Emperor William by
Or. william Bayard Hale, and sub
sequentIy Withdrawn just as It was
about to appear in the Century mag
azine, is printed in the World today
The main points OF the Emperor's
Interview follow:
That King Edward and Great Brit
ain have been humiliating him for
more than two years and have got to
stop it !; that Germany is a paramount
power of Europe; the Kaiser held
France In the hollow of his hand,
and that Russla was of NO account
sace the disastrous war with Japan.
Great Britain was declared de-
cadent nation ever since her victory
over Transvaal and Orange Free
State. and that despite the Anglo
Japanese alliance. Japan has been
honey-combing India with sedItion
and flooding 1t with spies.
Tho only way TO counteract this
alliance. the Kaiser said. according
to the World. was for Germany and
America to act together at an early
date. or America would have TO fight
the Japanese In ten months.
