BRISTOL is WET.
Judge Kelly Rendered Decision Monday in
Contest Election Case.

Bristol, Va, Sept. 20.-In a rather
lengthy opinion, defining in particular
what constitutes legal citizenship-that
being the only point left in the case
Judge Joseph L. Kelly, of the corpora
ton court of Bristol, Va, today sus-
tanned the recent local option election
here, holding that a majority of the
legal voters of the city had voted for
the licensing of saloons. He therefore
decided that, notwithstanding the find
ing of a few illegal votes on either side
and also some illegal votes which could
not be determined, with reference as to
how they were cast, the result Of the
election should stand.
The courts opinion elected such in
terest as has not been aroused here on
account of any opinion in many years.
The courtroom was thronged until there
was not another inch of available space,
while as many or more people waited on
the outside to hear the result.
Judge Kelly will sit on Wednesday to
consider applications for licence, but it
is understood that the applicants do not
purpose opening up for business until
October l, having agreed among them
selves to open on that date.
The drys gave notice of an appeal to
the Supreme Court of Virginia from
the decision of Judge Kelly.

IMPORTANT ITEM ABOUT STATEWIDE.
Prohibition Matter Is Subject of Discussion
on Strength of UtteTanCeS.

Submission of a law providing for
statewide prohibition will be an issue in
the coming session of the Virginia legis-
lature, according to a statement made
in Roanoke Wednesday to Congressman
c. Bascom Slemp, of the Ninth district.
by the Rev. John A. Taylor, a leader of
the Anti-Saloon League in the South
western section of the State, says a re-
port from Richmond by wire last night.
Mr.. Taylor is said to have stated to
Mr.. Slemp that Immediately following
the November election petitions would
be circulated in every precinct in the
State asking the legislature to submit
the prohibition question to a popular
vote at an election presumably to be
held some time during the summer of
next year, says the message.
1t will be remembered that following
conference held in Richmond lust
after the August primary, Richard Eve
lyn Byrd, speaker of the house of dele
gates, declared that there would be no
Legislation on the subject of liquor at
the coming session of the legislature,
except possibly to strengthen the Byrd
bill and to eliminate the near-beer sec
ton.
In conversation with Mr.. Taylor in
Roanoke Congressman Slemp says he
inquired as to the position of the Anti
Saloon League in reference to Speaker
BYrd's statement and was told by the
minister that the submission of the
question of statewide prohibition to a
popular vote of the people could not be
regarded as legislation.
This announcement on the part of a
leading member of the Anti Saloon
League will arouse intense interest all
over the State. 1t had been generally
understood, following the declaration of
Judge William Hodges Mann, candidate
for governor, that he favored local op-
ton; that Speaker Byrd's statement
that no prohibition legislation would be
attempted in the session of 1910 that
the question would be quiescent for at
least two years. 1t is now evident,
however, that the issue will at once be-
come the all absorbing political problem
of the commonwealth. Roanoke Times.

ENTIRE FAMILY
WIPED OUT.
Bloody Crime Committed in Buchanan COun
b With Robbery as the MOtiVe--BIuud-
hounds and Determined Men Now
In Pursuit of MurdeTerS.

Devon, W. Va, Sept. 22.-One of the
most horrible crimes that has ever oc-
CURED in the history of this section Of
the country was perpetrated in the
quiet little village of Hurley, Buchanan
county, Va, last night or early this
morning. An entire family Of six were
found foully murdered and the house
burned.
The family consisted of an old lady
locally known as Aunt Betty Justice,
her son-in-lsw, George Meadows, his
wife and three children. The old lady,
her daughter and three children were
murdered and their bodies burned in the
house. Meadows body was found out
In the yard with two bullet holes through
his body and his head almost severed
from his body.
Robbery was supposed to have been
the cause for the crime, as the old lady
was known to carry a large sum OF
money on her person. One of her daugh-
ters told party of officers today that
her mother told her she had sum Of
money under the sill of the house, and
on digging there they found nine hun
dred and fifty dollars. She also said her
mother carried about six hundred dol
lars on her person. If this is true, the
robbers very likely got that amount.
The old lady's skull was found at dis
tance from the body.
James Welferd, of Delorme, came
this morning with his bloodhounds.
When he reached the scene of the
trouble they Immediately took up q
trail, following it up a sag, the only
reasonable approach to the house with
out passing other houses. When they
came to corn field they found three
different sized foot prints.
A large body of heavily armed and de-
termined citizens, most of whom are
relatives of the murdered parties, are
with the dogs which are thought to be
on the right trail. If they are over
taken it will fare badly with the muir
derers, and it is generally believed a
trial will be unnecessary.

arrival of Mrs. Chapman, who had been

another Institute was being held. She
arrived on the IL o'clock train Wednes-

early rising or travel, and her clear in

mere was no loafing at any stage, and
potn teams were on the jump through

one. The Sand Crabs needed three
and they had two over the plate and
man on first and third, but the neces-
sary hit was not forthcoming and the
last man died by flying to Croll
Inc orphans jumped right into the
tray. In the opening inning by a sem
Sational play Streib threw Waters out
when he hit one which looked like a
home run. The San Francisco bunch
got two in the second frame Streib
beat out an infield hit and went to
second on Waters poor peg to first.
Hackett laid down a neat sacrifice
