check for $50 TO the Hillsville relief

tor Lesner. of Norfolk. who gave $50
on Wednesday. AS Justice" says in
his letter published herewith. st Is a
case of the honor OF Virginia"
The interest which the public is still
taking in the Hillsvillc tragedy shows
the deep feeling of outrage and the
Year that the outlaws may never be
captured. despite tho promise sent
forth from day to day. With a start
of more than two days. they arc high
in the mountains, nobody being able
TO follow them promptly while the
town of iiillsvillc. with It's prisoners,
was unguarded.

Roanoke. Va, March 2l-Floyd and
Victor Allen. now in the Roanoke Jail,
were interviewed this afternoon, after
the prison ers counsel had gone over
the list OF questions TO be asked The
Interview was given In the presence OF a
guard, aud was restricted 10 matters not
pertaining to charges brought against
the men. The interview lasted not
over half an hour. owing to the feeble
condition OF Floyd Allen. who is much
broken and weakened because of his
wounds.
At intervals during his recital, and
Particularly when telling OF his res
cuing the Edwards boys from Deputy
samuels, and of his wife, Floyd broke
down and his eyes filled with tears.
The first question put to Floyd Allen
was about the trouble that caused his
arrest and trial at Hllsviilc. He told
OF the Edwards boys. his nephews, the
sons OF his only sister. whose ages are
about seventeen and twenty one, hay
inE caused disturbance with a boy
named Thomas at the schoolhouse, at
which place Sunday services were to
be held. In the meantime the Edwards
boys. who had been summoned 10 tho
court. appealed to FLOYD Allen TO go

Doctors say of Grip that it's bark lie

IS no. excuse for neglect to silence tho

The worse effect OF Grip comes after
the attack.
Thus. from forty to sixty por cent OF

In a statement Issued yesterday to
the newspapers. Governor Mann em-
phatically declared that he was in nos
session OF Information that the fugi-
tive Aliens would be captured during
tho latter part of this week or the
beginning OF next week. This infor-
nation, said the Governor, WAS from
the most reliable source. and could not
be divulged for fear of putting the
outlaws on their guard. The Governors
statement is understood to mean that
the hiding place OF the gang Is def
nitciy known to the detective posse,
and that detailed preparation Is necss-
sary before an advance can be made
on tho retreat.
