Outlaw Proclamation
X Is Issued, for Talley
'oeeedings Signed by Magistrates
b. III. Collins and j. r. Gaffey
Will Increase Reward

HI increase reward
Carl Talley was Monday declared
an outlaw, the proclamation being
signed by D. II. Collins and J. K.
Caffey, justices of the peace, after
Deputy NJ. D. Catfey had signed an
affidavit declaring Talley a fugitive
from justice.
The proclamation, which was post
ed at the courthouse Monday after
noon at $50 o'clock, empowers Sher-
itf Stafford to take any such action
as he may deem necessary to appre-
hend the fugitive who is wanted for
McCuiston last Wednesday.
A message was received from Gov
ernor Morrison Monday saying that
ward offeerd by the city and the
$500, as soon as the money offered
by the county and city was placed in
a bank. This has been done, and
Governor Morrison has been notified.
1t was understood Monday night
that a number of men, who believe
the reward offered is too low, will
start a campaign on the streets to
raise an additional $1,000 to add to
the amount offered.
Officers believe that Talley has
been successful in escaping from the
section where the search for him has
been conducted for several days. 1t
is the belief of many that he has
crossed the Virginia line, while 9TH
ers think that he has made his way
to his home at Leaksville and is be-
ing concealed there or nearby by
friends or relatives.

l.fristn1ds Gifts Assorted

4t wa a morning after Christmas 7ae Naa&s Il huddled up in big heap Ia ene floor in front of the wide open fire, assorted her Christmas gifts here there everywhere - they'd come from.
 She felt just like a child and as she counted over the fascinating calen- dars-four of them--a wonderful
 Whistler" copy in a frame that she'd have selected herself if she'd had the selection to make; heaps of books -ln gay Christmas colors, red and green, and silver flowered in holly wreaths; every one of them a valued addition to her beloved bookshelf and a tiny Limerick" book and Verses Underneath the Dough-" and all sorts of things which made her glad.
 Then she went a-diving into the mountain of small boxes. green, red white, blue, vari-colored, and she found embroidered bags and lovely handkerohiefs, silk stockingsl galore and wonderful pin of amethysts and pearls, which a "maden" aunt (for whom Nancy was named) had sent her with love and kisses" Nancy wondering all the while what had prompted the beautiful gift, because, usually, Aunt Nancy" sent Knitted" things and "crocheted" things, which she purchased at church bazars before Christmas.
 This same "maiden" aunt regarded sending the family (especially Nancy, her namesake) anything in the shape of "gew-g -gaws" because they were foolish, hence the knitted and erocheted" things, but this Christmas she'd suffered a>change of heart and had sent the lovely brooch.
 over in box of lovely design Nancy espied wonderful sandalwood fan dainty and beautiful--and it was en- sconced in quaint Spanish case, with picture of a real live bull fight painted on the outside of it, and lovely senoritas applauding and throwing roses at the champions.
 How nice of Dick to take the trou- ble of selecting this for me-" she said. Even though he's over in Cuba, he's thinking of me.'
 There is something very appealing and very flattering in the fact that man has taken the trouble to select pretty Christmas gift for a grill
 And Nancy was so glad she had sent Dick the very thing that she knew he would like most, for it was something about his own dear United States, and she knew it would please him.
 Nancy had made for him a book of her pet dinner stories," which she had collected since he had been gone, and arranged them with marginal notes.
 It was real test of friendship for her to give her best stories to any body until she had told them herself, but she made an exception of Dick. over there with all those Cubans and "Furreners..
 Dick was the most appreciative per- son in the world, and while people said he missed a lot in life by being away from his friends and his home
