JURY DISMISSED
IN ALLEN TRIAL
Last Two of Carol County
cIansmen Charged With
Murder Face Court.

wYTHEVILLE, Va. Nov. S.--The
last scene in the drama of love and
outlawry which opened with the
murder of Judge Thornton L. Mas
sic. a bystander and three court
officers at the Hiilsville court house
last March, is being staged in
wytheville. Yesterday Sidna Allen
and Wesley Edwards. the last of
the famous "Allen gang charged
with the Hillsviile murders, were
placed on trial at the Wytheville
court house.
After a jury had been secured by
the county Circuit Court here for
the trial of Sidna Allen the defense
moved that the jury be dismissed.
The prosecution joined in the request
and the court so ordered. Another
yenire of fifty men win be summoned
from Grayson county for examination
Monday.
In the examination of prospective
Jurors today it developed that one of
them had discussed the case In the
presence of the others, and this was
apparently the reason for the motion
Of the defense to dismiss the jury
first selected.
The State will attempt to prove
that Sidna Allen was the actual
leader of the onslaught which re-
suited in the death of five at Hills
VILE, and a mass of evidence Will
be introduced to show that Edwards
also played large part in the trag-
edy. Such a web of evidence has
been spun about. the men that it Is
believed there is little chance of
their escape.
II Allen and Edwards are con-
victed, however. it will not be be-
cause of lack of funds. The Allen
and Edwards clansmen have raised
large sum of money for the de-
fense. They have employed some
of the best attorneys in the State
who will make desperate efforts to
secure an acquittal, or at least a
mitigation of she sentence to be
passed. AS last resort they will
plead that the law has been amply
avenged by the sentences of death
passed upon Floyd and Claude Al
| len.

WATER CHARGES TOO HIGH,
HE TELLS UTILITY BOARD
Asbury Park Man Wants Bill
Adjusted.

Jacob Jeck, of Asbury Park. ap-
peared before the Public Utilities
Commission at the Court House today
to complain against EXCESSIVE water
charges alleged to have been made
By the Monmouth County Water
Works.
Jeck claims that in a house owned
bx him at 301 Atkins avenue, Ashury
Park. the water billsl for several
months had been excessive. This
house was occupied by James f.
Perry as tenant, and he repeatedly
told Mr.. Jeck he was not using an
ABNORMAL supply of water.
Investigation by the company
brought out no apparent reason for
excessive charges unless the water
had been used. insisting that there
must have been leak of some kind.
This is denied by Jeck and he asks
the utility board to investigate and
OBTAIN an adjustment for him.

NEED NOT SWEAR
FEALTY TO FLAG
Pupil Suspended from Cedar
Grove School Is Reinstated
by State Board.
Continued from First Pase.)

tation OF the flag by the pupils {
part of the daily morning exercises
The recitation of the pledge wa'
also part of the boards order, bu
the Temple boy, on his fathers ad
vice, refused to repeat it.
The matter was placed before th'
Board of Education of Cedar Grove
and the boys suspension followed.
Mr.. Temple contested the case and
appeared at the hearing today in th'
Court House.
MY son. said Mr.. Temple, salute;
the flag and salutes it with respect
but he is a British subject and I an
a British subject. and IL he swort
allegiance TO the flag he would swear
a lie.
"He was born under the British
flag and I am under allegiance to it
but for my boy to pledge allegiance
to the American flag is an unwar-
ranted hardship, not to be expected
or demanded.
my son can salute the flag, but
don't see how you can reasonably ex-
pect him to swear allegiance"
Mr.. Belts sustained the opinion OF
Temple, and declared that the mean
ing of the Board of Education in or
dering theA salutation of the flag did
not go so far as to demand a pledge
of allegiance.
The Cedar Grove board took issue
with the decision of Mr.. Belts, of the
State board. and threatened to appeal
the case. The members insisted that
the Temple boy should repeat the
pledge of allegiance with the other
pupils
ST don't want to get in a personal
wrangIe with you, gentlemen" said
Mr. Belts. Il do not blame you for
your action. but I cannot change my
opinion concerning the pledge"
Have we the right to put the boy
out of the room while the other
scholars repeat the pledge?"
mo, siri" added Mr.. Belts emphat-
ically.
Alonzo B. jacob, one of the MEM
bers of the Cedar Grove board, said
that if the board had made a mistake
in suspending the boy he, for one, was
willing to acknowledge it and recede
from his position.
f: G.. Stebbins. clerk of the board,
took the boys part, but the. other
were obdurate.
Mr.. Belts decided that the boy be
returned to the school and relieved
OF the need of repeating the pledge.

Why Ne Couldn't Sit Down.

Harry aged six. is an orphan; but
an indulgent grandmother and kind
maiden aunt have taken care OF him.
The first pair of knickerbockers were
secured recently, and 1t was n proud
moment for the boy when his aunt
put them on him on Sunday morning
and he was permitted to go to church
with his grandmother. Naturally
maiden aunts know very little about
the arrangement of knlckcrbockers
and there was suspicious fullness In
front and an equally mystifyng tight
ness In the back to be observed, as
the little chap trudged happily along.
In church Harry sat down. but did
not appear comfortable and stood up.
Harry. sit down" whispered h.s
grandmother He obediently climbed
back on the seat, but soon slipped off
again. Harry, you must sit down"
Grandma, can't. My pants Is chok

ted, and discovered the now little
knickerbockers were on hind side be-
fore. Harry stood up during the re
