Heath Officer Shaw has had
served on the property holders OF
New Iberia hundreds of notices
demanding that their premises
needing attention be put in shape
by March 18th, the day set as
general "clean up day and many
are already having their yards
and outhouses put into good san
itarv condition. On Tuesday last
the Civic League organization met
and endorsed the work being car
ried on by DIR. Shaw and all indi-
cations point to much better san
itary conditions in this City. I'm
less New Iberia puts in good
sewerage system which will mean
the abandonment of all surface
closets, New Iberia will never be
as healthful and as desirable a
place to reside in as many of our
,itizens wish it TO become. The
sooner our property holders real
ize that these improvements are
necessary for their own health,
the better for all concerned. DR.
Shaw s efforts in cleaning up New
Iberia is commendable and he
should have the backing of the
citizens even though many think
some of these laws are infringing

MOUNTAIN OUTLAWS ASSAS.
SINATE JUDGE.

JllllSNllle. va, MdfcH IT. ne
specter of outlawry belched forth
its fiery breath here Thursday,
consuming in few deadly seconds
the entire fabric of the Carroll
County Circuit Court. Jurge
Thornton Massie, of Pulaski, was
the first victim. He was shot
dead on his bench by kinsmen Of
Clyde Allen, who had just been
sentenced for moonshining and
resisting officers. William Foster,
State s attorney, was the next to
fall dead, when bullet pierced
his brain, Then fell the sheriff,
Lewis Webb. AS he reached for
the assassins, bullets hit him in a
dozen places.
Implacable, the Allen brothers
continued their work of death.
They aimed at the startled men in
the jury box. Several of them
were shot.
Their deadly, guns finally stilled,
the outlaws backed from the court
room, holding a few of the re-
naming officials at bay.
Then they broke for cover. Bull
let's Missed after them. One of
the Aliens is said to have been
shot. The others, with their
friends, fed to the mountains.
Posses are pursuing.
The village was thrown into a
ferment. The murder of the law
officers left affairs in the hands
of unframed citizens, but nearly
every man In this section has
Joined in the hunt.
The scene Of the wholesale muir
der was the old-fashioned red
brick county court house, Hills
Vile being the seat of Carroll
county.
There had been reports that an
attempt might be made to rescue
Floyd Allen, who himself had aid
ed a prisoner friend recently to
escape from the county officers.
The trial had been in progress for
several ys,howpver, without any
indication becoming public of the
carefully planned plot of the Allen
brothers and their associates.
Floyd Allen had been found
guilty and had been called for
sentence Thursday. The stuffy
little courtroom was crowded. Sid
ney and Jack Allen were among
the first arrivals. They took
places near the rail marking the
enclosure for the prisoner and
counsel engaged in the case.
Standing nearby were number
Of their associates and friends
from the Blue Ridge.
Judge Massie went about the
sentencing of the prisoner in the
usual matter-of-fact way, but the
words Zone year at hard labor
had scarcely passed his lips when
there came the crack of revolver
In an instant this was followed by
a volley Of shots, and the judge,
who had partly risen at the first
shot, lay dead and bleeding on the
bench. Commonwealth Attorne.
Foster was sitting directly in
front Of the bench and was next
to succumb.
The brothers and their friends
must have been well armed for i
