Announcement that "the Aliens

ent sort of thrill through vir-
ginia residents than that which
formerly accompanied such notf-
ficatiOn. Instead Of barricading
themselves indoors, Roanoke peo-
pie flocked to the depot here, to
see Sidna Allen, leader of the no.
torious Allen clan of bandits, and
his nephew, Wesley Edwards, ar
rive In chains this afternoon from
Des Moines, where they were cap
tured Saturday.
Until they were betrayed by
young Edwards sweetheart, the
two men were the only remain

gang, which shot up" the Hills

sheriff and several other per-
sons.

FATHER JOSEPH
ON THE STAND
TESTIFIES REGARDING VOWS
OF THE JESUIT ORDER IN
MAGNUSON TRIAL THIS
MORNING.

Bishop Edward j. O'Dea of the
diocese of Nisqually has been SUBJ
poenaed by the complaint i'm the
MagnusoR $4,000 damage case
in Judge f. Nj. Cases court and
will arrive here this afternoon.
He will be asked as to what part
he took in the alleged kidnapping
Of Marjorie Rieman early in the
spring of 1911 and whether or
not he did know of the where
abOuts of the girl when he told
the distracted mother to the con-
trary, as has been alleged.
Most of the morning was taken
up by the testimony of Father
John Joseph Cunningham, project
of st. Leo's church. When asked
as to the VOW taken by members
of the Jesuit order and whether
or not that clause pertaining to a
mental reservation" permitted
any person connected with the
church to "equivocate, mislead or
deliberately falsify" to a person
asking a question, he replied:
There are lots of lies told
about the Catholic church. No
such thing as this is tolerated by
the church"
He declared that church digni-
taries were not bound to answer
questions which the interrogation
had no right to ask.
F. H. Remain, deputy prose
cutting attorney, testified that
Mrs. Magnuson had called at his
office shortly after the disappear
ance of her daughter and asked
for a warrant to search the
Academy of the Visitation for
her daughter. He said he denied
her the warrant, but telephoned
to the academy and was assured
that the place would be shown to
Mrs. Magnuson when she called.
Other testimony introduced
showed that Mrs. Magnuson was
in very poor mental and physical
condition on her return trip to
Alaska after her Intellectual at
tempts to find Marjorie.
The largest crowd of the entire
trial thronged the court room this
morning. Women crowded
against the railing and found
standing room behind the last row
of seats against the wall.

BETTER SETTLE

Secretary II. G. Rooms of the
local grocers' association says the
groeers of Tacoma do $500, 700
business a year, carry at least
$500, 900 credit business all the
time and lose at least $500 a
year by deadbeats.
But the deadbeat Is being sim
gled out, and Rooms is going to
the state convention of Washing

chants at Everett today to speak
for general listing throughout
the state of every deadbeat who
does not pay his grocery bill.
Then the beat who wants to eat
at the grocery mans expense will
find it hard in Washington.
