a bill introduced by him to penall2c
the use of the mails, the telegraph or
the telephone for the purpose OF con
veying gambling propositions to buyer
or seller.
Mr. Davis denounced what ne de-
clared to be the owls Of the money

Local theater-goerS will, no
doubt, be delighted to know that
George BroadhurSt's famous play,
The Man of the Hour" produced
by William \. Brady and Joseph
X. Grismer, will be the attraction
at the Auditorium, Winchester, on
Friday night of this week, April
10, with the New York Savoy
Theater Company. The Man OF
the Hour is a timely play, full of
dramatic incidents, with plenty of
comedy and telling story of
human interest. The author has
utilized in the making of this play
many incidents which in the past
few years have come To public
knowledge through the newspapers
of the country. Theodore Roose-

Prisoner Makes His Escape,

James Pierce, white, locked up
on a charge of highway robbery
and assault preferred by James
Thompson, a carpenter, made his
escape from the County Jail last
Thursday night assisted by out
siders, by saving through one oi
the bars and crawling from hole
s by ii inches in size.
The bar which was removed had
previously been sawed at one end
by a prisoner, and it was only
necessary to complete the job
started some years ago to give
Pierce his liberty.
He made good his escape. and,
so far as known, is still running.

Judge Williams Makes Friends.

Judge Samuel W. Williams.
candidate for Acknowledgement,
spoke to small crowd at the
Courthouse last Saturday night.
but made friends with hundreds of
our people during the day and eve
ming, and will have the practically
unanimous vote of Clarke county
in the primary.
Judge Williams, who has made
a most enviable record as a lawyer.
State Senator and Judge, served
in the State Senate with Hon.
Marshall Mccormick, of Berry
vile.
He is a plain-spoken Democrat
of the old school, and believes that.
as every big question of Virginia
has been settled-and settled right
by the Democratic party, it not
only can, but will, settle properly
any future questions which may
arise.
That meets with the full approval
of the COURIER. We shall support
Judge Williams, and we believe he
Is, to all interts and purposes, as
good as elected now.

Following the CoURIER's article
of last week. in which it was stated
that the Town was surrounded by
few large landowners. Mr.. John
I. Grow called at this Office and
said:
You may state for me that
every foot of ground which / own
adjoining Berryville is for sale,
and will be sold in parcels to suit
the purchaser. i expect to open
up streets through the property
and make it accessible and con-
venient for building purpose"
MIR. Crow owns some Of the best
property adjacent TO the Town for
building purposes. and his an
nouncement is an important one.
as 1t opens mp a considerable field
to those who desire lots upon which
to build homes.
