nave gone hungry. The same may
be said of the outlaws. 1t is impossi-
BILE for the detectives to do effective
work at night. They cannot move in
the darkness, owing to the danger of
falling down precipices, and they
cannot carry lights because to do so
would reveal their position to the
outlaws. But every morning with
the dawn they make dashes for the
hiding places of the fugitives and
then follow up the trails as rapidly
as possible. 1t is now believed that
the Aliens cannot much longer elude
the Gordon thrown around them, EY-
cry pass into the mountains is guard
ed, and the circle around the outlaws
is gradually narrowing. 1t may be
today, it may be tomorrow, that the
fugitives will be rounded up, but the
authorities are convinced that the
end will be reached soon.
Meantime the Carroll county court
has convened and indictments have
been found against the members of
the Allen clan. The prisoners will
be arraigned April Is, and it is
probable that no change of venue
will be asked in any of the cases
except possibly for Floyd Allen.

to respond to calls for jury service
brought out an announcement by JUS

to have a woman jury in every case
in his court where the testimony is
not likely to be. Of an embarrassing
nature He said women had more
time for jury duty than men.
Deputy Sheriff Edward Wadman re-
ported he had found ii practically inn
possible to serve subpoenas on six
prominent women summoned as jur-
lists. In many cases, he said, he was
met at the door by a butler or maid
with the information that the mistress
was "out of town" while at the same
time he could see the absentee" in an
upstairs window laughing at him.
On his way to his office yesterday,
Justice Clark saw one of the women
on the street. An hour later he receiv-
ed a telephone message that she was
"out of town" and could not serve He
replied that "she had better be in
town today"
