ROOSEVELT TO FURNISH ALL THE

Quorig, one of the leading. Repub-
licans of Schohorie, drifted into Re-

"Well, what would you suegest?'
asked Saint Peter.
"Well, first send for l0, 900 So

"That'll be pretty hard" said
Saint Peter, but if you say $" | II
do it. "
Then get 5000 altos

Then 10000 baritones.

Then you'll have a real choir. y
"But how about the bassos?"

SOME LEMONS

Lemons weighing in the neighbour
hood of a pound apiece are being
grown successfully by Mrs. E. H.
Hevener, of Lone Fountain. One
specimen from a tree that bore
thirty was shown in Staunton Fri
day, and amazed all who saw it.
The monster weighed a pound and
eleven ounces strong, and was
larger than the largest orange, be-
ing in fact equal in size toa healthy
grape fruit. Raising lemons in
Augusta county soil is not exactly
a new thing, as several persons
nave experimental succe ssfully
with the fruit in the last several
years. But to Mrs. Hevener un-
questionably goes the prize for the
finest specimen produced in this
county to date Staunton Dis

WILL SURRENDER ALIENS FOR 81 900

Hillsyille, Va, April 1.-THE
lure of money, if certain plans now
under way 60 through, may bring
about within few days the capture
of Sidna Allen and Wesley Edwards,
for whom vain search has been
made ever since they shot up the
courthouse March IA.
In a roundabout way the detec-
tives have received a message from
resident of the wild Fancy Gap
region, where the men have been
hiding somewhere, to this effect.
IF you will pay me 81 900 in
small bills and take a Bible oath
that you won't ever let my part OF
it become known, l will tell you
the Kidding place of Sid and Yves,
and you can 60 right out and get
them"
The searchers are willing to do
this, and it is understood the only
hitch is that the person making the
offer is not yet satisfied that he
can be fully protected. AS mat
ter of fact, detectives do not yet
know who he is. They have been
dealing with an envoy.
Carroll county people who have
heard of the proposition say:
Heaven help the one that gives
these men up All the older Aliens
may be sent to the electric chair,
and it may appear that thee will
be no danger after The execution,
but the Alien children now growing
up will make the traitor pay for it
if il takes twenty years"
There may have been something
significant in the fact that Rube
Edwards, a young kinsman, arrested
last night on the charge of having
aided the outlaws, was today re-
leased under small bond. There
was a rumor to the effect that he
might have been the envoy bring
ing in the reward proposition, and
that his arrest was merely a blind
to cover the negotiations.
Detective Baldwin, in charge
here, denied this, however. And, |
while admitting perhaps someone
might turn up the fugitives if paid |
well enough, he declared no definite
pro ress was being made along that
line.

day on which some one or more

from the surrounding community

ance one is led to- believe that
everything which tie family might
at one time have bad, had been
sacrahced to get the wherewlthalI
to pay fer their fares save the few
l,nsSessio they have on then
backs. Many Of the mothers in
these migrating parties have not
head covering save an old scarf OF

FLOOD DAMAGES

Memphis, Tenn, April s. Two
thousand square miles of rich farm
ing country flooded, loss to date
over $4,000. 900, estimated thirty
persons drowned, and 10000 per-
sons homeless.
This was the net result today OF
the disastrous flood which for near
lv two weeks has swept the Mlssis-
sippi valley The end is not yet in
sight, as the river threatens to
break through the levees at half
dozen places about the rich st.
Francis basin, in Arkansas and
Tennessee. When this inland ocean
of water recedes the rich country
phich it now covers will be trans
ferred from valuable farming land
into merely thousands of acres OF
mud-covered bottoms, which
will be worthless for years TO come.
Water is pouring into Arkansas
today fir m three big breaks in the
| wees. Railroad traffic is paralyz-
ed. and wire communication is
badly hampered. Of the persons
driven, from their homes many
fled to- towns less seriously affected
than their own. Others have FLED
to the hills, where they are wonder
ing unsheltered a I'd without food.
Others are still floating without
food on RATS are in boats, maroon
ed on house-tops,' or in trees real
their submerged homes.
Heroic rescues were reported by
the score, and every boat available
was plying the waters today pick
ing up victims. The most danger

was at Golden Lake, Ark. There
nearly | 900 men worked feverish
ly in an attempt to bolster up the
levee, which has been weakened fol

stop the onrushing waters, but still
it continued to crumble and threat
ened to divide.
The food today extended as fa1
south as Vicksburg, Miss, where
the levee was being strengthened
against a threatened break. IL

been added the two mammoth gaps
