ALIENS TYPICAL OF
 MOUNTAIN COUNTRY
Capt. E. P. McAdams Talks of Conditions at Hills
 vile, Va.

'T'he Allen clan of Hilsville, Va, which slew all the court officials at a session of court, are as wild as Indians, being typical mountaineers of that section," said Capt. F. P McAdams of the Unitel States secret service. yesterday
 Captain McAdams has been in the gov ernment secret service a score of years and he said yesterday that he could not recall any crime so revolting as that in Virginia last week.
 Those men are the rough type of mountaineers." said the veteran detective last night They are uneducated. tough as leather and nothing more than wild men. The savage Indians did not have anything on that class of fellows It is well established fact in government service that the section of country that they now occupy is the most dangerous and most perilous and at the same riue most lawless from a revenue standpoint in America.
 T nave been through that mountain region. I recall one case typical of shat section. Revenue agents had arrested a few people for violating the revenue law anu leN ol. lue cldn Idlued the home or the informant. They killed his wife aunt and wounded some other members of his family. He was not at home The government sent two of us in there and we finally landed the guilty parties in the pcnTcntiary. They are there now. recolect one Sunday that we saw a great crowd eoing to church. Under an oyer hanging tree mountaneer had a barrel of whisky retailing it at 10 cents per cup. That is common sight. or was then However, the government sent into that section about D or 100 men. They ter rorized the town and arrested the ring leaders
 But the Aliens. They are of type of men in that section that finger about the horder of Virginia and North Caro- lima. They can step over the line to com parstive safety when trouble occurs However, in this matter they can't do much running.
 Although they have taken refuge in an almost impreenabe mountain fast ness, I believe they will be caught. l be- lieve the entire gang will be taken alive although they may be killed. They can he starved out, smoked out and brought to bay in several ways without being killed"

 Possibly no Sunday school of the state has made such rapid advancement in a few weeks as that of the Sloam Baptist church. H. o.

A combined effort will be made to make the attendance exceed the capacity of the Sunday school room and create a demand for new Sunday school building adjoining the church building.
