inal values, he is q man to cause
trouble to Playwright Williams girl
when the juries 60 out to decide
between them.
There is little question here that
Heggen's hero is the chap he al
ways has been, maybe ever more so.
The premise of this certainty that
Mr.. Roberts is a man to catch the
universal fancy is not Heggen's
ability as a dramatist. He Is an
unknown quantity in that this Is his
first play. His collaboration, Mr..
Logan, is the magician from whom
the theater knows it may expect the
best. Logan, of course, not only
participated in the reshaping of
"Mr. Roberts," he also directed it.
Moreover, the cast headed by
Fonda, and including David Wayne,
who was the engaging Leprechaum,
Og, in 'Finian's Rainbow" Is one
to excite the imagination.
Expectancy could not be higher.
The original feeling about Will
liams' play, that it had not a single
weakness as the top, If not the only,
candidate for this years play
awards, has been modified by sub
sequent reflection upon its charms.
Most substantial Of the amend
ments being tackled on to first judg-
ments of its worth have to do with
the character of the tragic heroine,
the human equivalent of that New
Orleans streetcar which gave the
play its POLITICALLY captivating title.
On more seadching glance, dictated
by the possibility of competition
from "Mr. Roberts," the argument
now being heard that she is much
the same woman Of whom Williams
wrote so hauntingly in 1.-The Glass
Menagerie."
In case the ultimate Judgment
goes in favor of Mr.. Roberts, against
the girl played so unforgettably by
Jessica Tandy, the point will be
made that, after all, she is some
thing of a younger version of the
Amanda created in "The Glass
Menagerie" by the late Laurette
Taylor.
This will make Williams latest
play sound not unlike a rewrite Of
his first Critics Circle prize winner
which 1t actually is not, but 1t is q
way humans have of justifying first
judgments that have to be modified
by additional evidence.
The additional evidence is being
polished for presentation in Balti-
more this week. When 1t arrives In
New York, a week from today, New
York wants to be ready for it.
It has given mid-season a FLIP
that was not quite expected, which
makes it just that much more
exciting.

Vic Refuses Praise

HOLLYWOOD.
Victor Mature braved the COM
plants of his neighbors and even
legal action (Which he won) to
give his Coast Guard pal, Bud Ev-
ans, and Buds wife Ella place to
live in the garage home Vic fixed up
for them on his property. Seems
Natures is a so-called single-family
residence zone.
But, after all the commotion, Vic
tor gave up his bedroom and moved
the Evanses into the house. He had
noticed that Ella looked peaked,
and he sent her to his doctor. The
physician said Ella was anemic
and was developing bronchial
disorder from the dampness of the
garage quarters.
my room is rigged up with sun
lamps and stuff that will keep her
warm, so until summer comes it's
theirs" Mature explained. Then,
in case anybody might think he'd
done a good turn, he added: "It's
for my own benefit, really. I don't
go tearing around night spots
spending lot of dough when I've
got company right at home"

Tax Collection Up
In County

Prosperity continues in Dicken
son County, if one may judge by
tax collections. Up to December
5th, according to Treasurer Cor
man B. Sutherland, nearly $780,
900 in state and local taxes had
been received. Of this total, local
taxes accounted for $174,481 SO,
while the payment of state taxes
amounted to $24,594.12.
Collections for the same period
last year were as follows: local
$155, 1888; state, $11,831.39. Heav-
Ter income taxes for this year ac-
count for a part of the increase
in state revenue.
In addition to collections on
this years tax, fair amount came
in on delinquent taxes for 1916.
The biggest item in the delin-
quent collections was a check for
$4,000 from the Standard Banner
Coal Corporation.

Old King Coal Is Sick
Again; Some Mines Idle

Old King Coal seems to be sick
in spots-again. Whether he is
only slightly indisposed, or wheth
err he has an organic disease, Is
not certain.
The company-operated mines
over Southwestern Virginia and
Eastern Kentucky are running on
half time, and less. Just as the
big mines got on the drag, t h
truck mines in the better seams
got going in boom fashion. Even
so, unemployment is on the in
crease in the coalfields, and the
rocking chairs are being jockey
ed again. AS usual during such
situations, rumors are flying, and
almost anyone is ready to give a
confidential diagnosis.
One of the rumors concerns the
Meade Fork operation. There are
persistent but unverified reports
that Meade Fork has closed in
definitely and that employees
have been advised to look for
jobs elsewhere. The story goes
that DR.. Roy L. Mullins, former
resident of Georges Fork, has
mining rights to the land on
which part of the Meade Fork tip
pie is located. According to this
story, DR.. Mullins has demanded
that the coal company pay him
one hundred thousand dollars
and future royalties on coal for
the use of his property. DR.. Null
Inns does own considerable acre
age of coal near the Meade Fork
operation and porbably does have
all necessary mining rights on
the property.

COUNTY OFFICERS STILL
ON TRAIL OF INCONSISTENCIES

Although they have been TAX
ing an awful beating, moonshin-
ers in the western side of Dick
enson County seem to cherish
hopes. Deputy sheriff have de-
stroyed three plants within the
past few days.
A steamer outfit was taken on
Lick Fork last Friday. Again on
Monday officers struck on Pine
Creek. They found molasses pan
steamer, with a capacity of rs
gallons, and a 50-gallon copper
still in furnaces side by side. In
addition to the stills, about eight
hundred gallons Of mash was de-
stroyed.
The moonshine business, which
was apparently dormant during
the war years and the following
boom in coal, seems to be trying
to make comeback.

to the effect that officers had
chased him and Greene across
the Kentucky line and had
wounded Greene, who abandon

His tale was considered import
ant enough for an FBI officer to

son County during October. Will

Kills Three Women; Then
Turns Gun on Self

Mrs. Pearl Stout, of BCrdine,
KY, a daughter of Jackson Null
ms of Norland, was shot to death
by her son-in-law, Leon Cald-
well, in Portsmouth, Va, Tues
In the same affary, Caldwell kill
ed his wife and sister-in-laW. He
then turned his gun on himself,
inficting a wound from which he
is not expected to recover.
1t appears that Mrs. Caldwell
had left her husband last Friday,
going with her children and moth
er to Portsmouth from Burdine.
On Monday, Caldwell telephoned
his wife and asked her to return.
She refused to do so, but said she
would think it over. Then Cald-
well hired a taxicab at Jenkins
and started out for Virginia. At
Pound, he bought .38 caliber
pistol. Arriving in Portsmouth,
he went at once to the apartment
where his wife, mother-in-law
and sister-in-law were staying.
Mrs. Stout was born and rear
ed on Camp Creek. Relatives of
the women say they will be
brought to Shelby Gap, KY, for
burial.

He confirmed this suspicion and
more too, after a Dickinson and
Russell County deputy had run
him down. He said that he, with
a man by the name of Greene
and a woman, had taken the miss
ing cattle from the pastures at
night, had trucked them to Brls-
toll, and had there "pinhooked"
them to buyers outside the stock
market. According to his state

$725O,50 PAID FOR HUNTING,
FISHING LICENSE
THIS YEAR

Receipts for hunting and fish
ing licenses sold in the county
this year amounts to $7250.50. II
is expected that but few more
licenses will be sold this yea
since the hunting season is prac-
tically over, and there will be lit
tie, if any, fishing until spring.
The sale of hunting and fish
ing licenses this year is the heav
lest in history, due largely to so
many high-priced licenses being
sold for the deer season in vari-
Gus parts of the state.

Nest Branch in Russell County,
the young man came through
with a confession of cattle-rustl-

A number of cattle had been
disappearing around West Dante

A man came to Deputy Sheriff

with some startling information
He had killed a man at Clinchco,
he said. At least he had blasted
at him with a shotgun and had
heard the man fall or something.
Accompanied by the self-confess-
ed killer, the officer hurried down
to Clinchco. But when they got
there, no one had been killed, nor
did anyone know anything about
any shooting. The informer held
out that he had shot at man
and had heard him fall. That's
all there is to the story except
that the imaginary victim came to
town and took a peace warrant
for the man who had claimed to
have killed him.
