When the Rev. Elmer V. Huffner.
just resigned as pastor of the First
Christian Church OF Grand juno
ton, COL. delivered a sermon re-
Gently advocating the exile of old
maids to a barren island as waste
humanity, he anticipated local re-
sentiment, possibly. but hardly ex-
pected to ind himself at issue with
Miss Helen Gould, of New York.
Miss Gould's letter follows:
"Glancing over Denver paper, l

and bachelor maids should be isolat-
ed on an island, so they could not

served the church twenty years,
giving it one-third of his time at
first. and later. one-half. During
this time, the session received LAP
members. Rev. William Pinkerton,
as stated supply, took charge of this
chulcb and Fairfield in 1858. In

Washington and Lee Law Graduates

A dispatch sent out from Rich
mond few days ago says:
For some reason which remains
mystery to President Boatw right
and the law faculty OF Richmond
College, every graduate from the
law schoo; OF that institution with
the exception of one, failed to make
the State Board examination held at
Roanoke last month. Only one Of
the thirteen tho received degrees
was granted license to practice.
While the percentage Of failures
among the graduates of the other
State institutions was by no means
so high, it was large enough to at
tract comment. Washington and
Lee, which for years boosted that
every one of it's graduates make the
State Board, was disappointed in
seven degree men who failed to make
the required average. OF class OF
thirty-six from the University Of
Virginia, twelve failed at Roanoke
OF the total number OF 1l2 from al
the colleges. fifty two. or scarcely
half of those who took the examipa
ton were granted license.

CLAUDE ALLEN TO GO
TO THE DEATH CHAIR
Jury Brought in Verdict After
Hour and Half
PRISONER FULLY BROKE DOWN
Friel Aliens Trial to Begin on
August 18th


August 18th
Claude Swanson Allen, one OF the
Carroll county outlaws who or
March 14th shot up the court at
Hillsville, was Saturday found gull
ty OF murder in the first degree for
the killing OF Commonwealth At
torney William M. Foster. At
former trial be was found guilty of
murder in the second degree for the
killing of Judge Thornton L. Mas
sic, and his first trial resulted in a
hung jury. He is the second OF the
Allen clan tn be found guilty of first
degree murder. the other being his
father. Floyd Allen.
While the jury was considering
its verdict. Victor and Friel Allen
and Sidna Edwards were brought
from the Jail in order that a motion
might be made for change of venire.
On motion OF the Commonwealth a
venire OF IS from Bedford county
was ordered summoned for the next
trial.
The Commonwealth also moved
that the three remaining cases be
consolidated, but this the defense
would not agree to unless the Com
monwealth would elect the indict-
ment on which they would try the
case and dismiss the other indict-
ments. This tie Common wealth re-
fused to do, and it was then decided
that the case OF Friel Allen would
be next taken up. He will be tried
on the indictment charging the
murder OF Wa. NJ. Foster. which is
the one on which his uncle and
cousin have been found guilty OF
first degree murder. The trial will
begin August l4th at Wytheville.
where the other trials we're held.
The jury, after retiring to their
room at 2:30, were out an hour and a
half. When they slowly filed back
into the courtroom and took their
seats the foreman announced that
they had agreed upon a verdict OF
murder in first degree as charged
in the indictment. The defense
moved to have the jury polled. which
was done.
When the verdict was announced
the prisoners fiance, who sat by
his side, broke down and so5bed
aloud. The prisoner also wept. it
being the first time during the long,
trying days that he showed the least
emotion. And he was not alone
tears fl lowed freely down the cheeks
of all the members Of his family
several of the jurors and of many
ladies among the spectators.
Three more members of the Aller
clan are in Jail awaiting trial
and opinion is that they will NEE
the Same fate as have the two WIZ

Allen and Wesley Edwards, are still
at large, but from the evidence il
the case just ended it will not TAX,

, prove a clear case ofmurder agains

! Sentence has not been passed up
on either Floyd or Claude Allen. a.
they will be used in the other trial
as witnesses for the defense.

STRATEGY DEFEATED BOSSfSM
William Jennings BRYAN Master of
The Situation

w hiidh J~uuiuSS Oifdu NdSlCi Va
The Situation
The following report commenting
on the Democratic Convention in
Baltimore appeared in recent is
sue of the Cincinnati Enquirer:
If any person pretending 70 the
possession of knowledge gives it
out oraculary that in the late fracas
at Baltimore, Md, William jennings
Bryan was run over by a steam
roller, and his tail feathers pulled out
or lost his hold on the party, bet
him one million dollars in pennies
that be is full brother to the monkey
of the jungles. 1t is true, possibly,
that William lost the consideration
and respect OF certain politicians
whose little game be blocked most
beautifully. but it is not true that be
lost anything else. And do not let
any one, however high his brow
may be, get away with the story
that the bosses ran the convention.
That is one Of Hon. Theodore Roose-
velt's hallucinations.
His winning was simple enough
in it's methods. He appealed to the
great mass of the Democratic voters
outside the convention, while the
leaders OF the opposition were Oper-
ating the thousand delegates with
in the hall. Reduced TO ordinary
arithmetic, he offset the thousand
with the six millions and a halt
voters. His tactics were bound to
win in the end il he could ges
sufficient time. Eumeshed in their
own foolish devices, they gave him
more time than he needed. Tney
seemed to forget there was auch a
thing as the magnetic telegraph or
the daily newspaper in existence.
The limit of their field OF operation
was the city OF Baltimore. His ex-
tended from ocean to ocean and from
Canada to Mexico.
To begin with, he knew every
card they held in their hands when
the game began, aud they weren I
aware of what he was holding. They
thought he was candidate for
president-and he let them think
so! To smoke him out they put up
Judge Alton B. Parker for chair
man and cbuckled. The Nebraska
sought out a private room and did
a Highland fling in exceedii g great
Joy. He had them. Reappearing it'll
a face that resembled that of an I'M
dertaker at a $500 funeral, he APP
peared TO be very much concerned
for the safety OF the republic.
Each boss, bosSlet and bossikin was
watching the other So that there
shouldn't be any advantage gained
in hopping across the line. So al
at once, on the forty-sixth ballot, Mr.
Bryan, calmly tanning himself will
an evening newspaper, watched
with twinkling eyes the who'd here
boiling through the gap in the fenc
he had opened. All the power O
the bosses, all their tricks and a.
their money had resulted in naugh'
/ One man with gumption and san
had whipped the entire gang. An
that man laughed at them.
