bottles of whiskey which the
men threw down on seeing them
coming. Blessing further stated
that they were preparing to re-
turn to town with the prisoners
when Wallen drove up iii u bug
gy and wanted to know what the
arrest was made for. After the
officers related the facts to him
he fired into littrell's back and
also shot Blessing.
After Blessing was brought to
town MIR. Sayers quickly notified
Marshall Belcher, who only a
few days ago took up again his
former position as chief of police
for Big Stone Gap. In the
meantime the men who had been
arrested had started III the di-
rcction of Appalachia, but were
overtaken this side Of Roaring
Branch by belchcr, who turned
them over TO other officers to be
brought here and placed in Jail,
Belcher continued on the pursuit
of Wallcn and found that he had
gone to Il physicians Office in
Appalachia for medical treat
ment. lie was later taken to
the hospital at Norton. Wallen
was Shot through the right thigh,
the ball going entirely through
the bone. 1t is said that Wallcn
claims that he did not attempt
to interfere with the officers, but
had attempted to act as peace
maker with the officers and
prisoners who were engaged in a
fight as he came up. In doing
this his action was resented by
l.ittrell and Blessing and they
commenced TO shoot mt him.
Mr.. l.ittrell was about 10
years old and had been serving
on the police force for about
eight months and had qualified
as good officer and had
the confidence Of the public in
'lischarging his duties. He is
survived by a wife and ten chill
drcn, having been married twice.
His last wife was Il daughter OF
the late Rev. John NJ. Stewart,
of Big Stone Gap. The de-
ceased's former home was in
Scott county, where he ut one
time owned II large farm near
Horizons Summit, but for the
past few years has made Big
Stone Gap his home.

Littrell Killed
And Assistant Seriously In
jured Sunday Morning After
Making Arrests.

EH llis SOhiihahitS WIS 'cii ibiN
Sunday morning when it
Ewas learned that Policeman Dan
EW. Littrell was shot aud instant
kly killed and his assistant, j..
mike Blessing, vas seriously in
sinred after they had arrested
8three men and woman for be-
cling drunk and disorderly. The
+ shooting took place iii the mouth
of the Gap on the pike road near
1 the corporate limits where the
i policemen had gone to watch for
bootleggers, liaviag knowledge
II that much of this was going on III
+ that particular section. The
/ shooting was doue by David
Il Wallen, night policeman at APP
q palachia, who had driven up TO
Il the place, accompanied by anoth-
/ er man in buggy, and accord
4 ing to statement of Blessing,
/, Wallen appeared to be angcrcd
{ over the arrest and grabbed Lit
/ ,rell by the shoulder, Jerking him
around, and shot him through
the back. In the meantime
Blessing shot Wallen through the
leg, but he returned the fire hit
ting Blessing three times, the
bullets penetrating his neck,
shoulder and arm. These how
ever proved TO be only flesh
wounds and physicians state that
he will recover. One shot bare
ly missed the iugular vein and
came out in his back. Iittrell
was shot in the back between the
shoulder blades, the ball hitting
the spinal cord ana ranging up
ward and coming out through
the neck cutting the jugular
vein, which caused instant death.
1t was first thought that Iittreil
was shot twice but after close
examination was made by Drs.
Painter and Gilmer it was found
that only one bullet had taken
effect. Much evidence of pow
der burns were found on his bacl,
which indicated that the shot
was fired at extremely close
range. d. b. Sayers and family,
who had been out for an auto.
mobile ride, were returning to
town and passed by the scene
just as the shooting occurred.
He stopped his car and finding
that Littrell was killed put Bless
ing in the car and rushed him to
town for medical aid.
Blessing was unable TO remain
iii town TO testify before Il cor
oner's jury and he was removed
to his home, where the jury later
went for evidence. In his testi-
mony he stated that the police
were preparing for raid Sun
day afternoon in that part of
town, near where the shooting
occurred commonly known us
"ltaly," as they had much evil
dence that bootlegging was 60
ing on. But Sunday morning
Littrell decided that they would
walk over in that direction to see
if Everything was quiet as he
expressed it. On arriving there
they came upon John and Henry
snodgrass and a man by the
name of Godsey and Lima FIELDS,
the latter OF whom lives in this
vicinity and has appeared in po-
lice court numerous times on

DOMESTIC ECONOMY

The old timers had their period of
high prices aftc the Civil War. Some
of the old folks of Northeastern YER
mont will tell of prices that would
look fairly high even in these bal
looming times. But family life was
built on different system then.
The old-fashioned family carried
thrift to small details. Many old
households never used many matches.
They twisted strips of paper to make
lamplightcrs. They never bought
soap depending on the grease kettle
and animal soap boiling spree. Their
conscientious little economies built
fortunes.
Time would now be considered too
valuable to fuss with these antiquat-
ed frugalities. But the present wo-
mems movement to cut down high
costs, does we'll to emphasize such
points as the making over of clothes,
and more economical use of ineXpen>
sivc foods. If scientific efficiency l.,
applied to the home, many needless
costs can be cut out.

Three County Churches
Already Over the Top

The financial drive of the Protcs-
tant denominations this week in the
Interchurch World Movement is con-
fined largely in this section to the
Congregational and Baptist dcnomi-
nations. In st. Johnsbuly the Union
Baptist church raised half its quota
Sunday and the canvassers arc busy
at work trying to raise the rest this
week. In both the North and South
Congregational churches in St. Johns
bury a splendid start has been made
towards the quota and it is believed
they will reach it OF pass it before
the end Of the week.
Three Congregational churches in
Caledonia county have already report
ed to f. H. Cowlcs of st. Johnsbuly,
the county chairman, that they have
gone over the top. Lyndonville re-
ported that they had subscribed 5000
more than their quota. Danville $3.50
more than their quota and the McIn-
does church is $50 above it's quota.
No reports have been received by MI.
Cowles from the other Congrcga-
tional churches, but the canvasscrs
are all at work and will file their re-
port Saturday night.

HOUSE PAINT

Careful houscholdcrs used to have
their buildings painted about every
four or five years. Recently they
have had fainting spells on getting
estimates of the cost of the job, and
have allowed buildings to go unpant-
cd.
This is taking risks for Il structure
built of so pcrishablc IL material a.
wood. If you leave Il pile OF lumber
out in the weather for Il single sea-
son, it shows decay. The house that
was built to last Il century may Sut-
fer serious damage in Il few year
of exposure.
Also town looks dccadcnt when
it ncglects painting. The real estate
owners of st. bloomsbury, will prolon1
the life Of their property, and advcr-
tisc their town as up to date and
wide awake, by keeping their build
ings in good condition with hou:e
