HiHsville> Va., April 7.—Mon ey may pix>ve superior ^to moun tain stnwegy, iR cap^ng Sito Allen and Wesley Edwal^, ,tlie two outlaws of the Allen clan, still at large. With no definite prospect of locating the fugitives by raiMng the mountain side, the detectives are said to be at tempting to secure information of the hiding places of the two men by paying $1,000 or more for knowledge that would lead to an immediate arrest. The detect ives, it is said, -have learned that there are among the 75 or more families near here who are akin to Allens, some who would not be adverse to seeing the outlaws captured, but would demand in return for information absolute silence on the part of the detect ives as well as a liberal amount of money. Revelation, it is ad mitted, would mean death tp the betrayer. The detectives, therefore, in keeping with the idea, are reti cent to .discuss this phase of a possible plan to capture the out laws. Thev tried hard to get in formation from Jordon E' ward . an^ted a few days ago on a charge ot aiding the fugitives, but he steadfastly scorned alt proffers of money. ' Reuben Edwards, another kins men of the Allens, taken into custody yesterday on a similar charge, was released today un der a small bond. Rumor tonight was to the effect tliat the latter had yielded'to the grilling of the detectives and that important developments might ensue from his quick release. The posse reported no new trail today. ffindibmint OotlM S Weds Soa’s Mdtber-ln-Law Pontiac, 111., April 3.—Ezekiel French of the FVench Chapel neighborhood, near Lincoln,. just been m^ried to Mrs. Em ma Hickman of Mount Pulaski, who is the mother-inrlaw of his. son, Henry French, The groom is now the father-in-law of his own son and the stepfather of his daughter-in-law, Oranges, Lenoons, Choc olate penny goods, white and colored beans.

TkriiUng To hear the thunderous roars of the mm-eating kings of the forest, to feel their hot breath wafted through the barred win dows of a tiny cabin in the jung les is certainly thrilling. Fritz Brunner, the famous ani mal trainer with the John H. Pparks Shows, which are are to exhibit here next Saturday Apr. 13 was raised in a cabin in the wilds of equatorial Africa. His father was an agent of the Royal Zoological Society of Germany, and cpent many years securing specimens for that institution. Hence from childhood Mr. Brun ner was accustomed to hear nightly the roars of monster lions, the hideous tiger’s growls and th^ snarling leopards and hyenas, Vhieh would engage in deadly combats around the cabin, often hurling their huge weights against its frail walls and scamp ering ovei its roof. As he grew up in these suaroundings he ' be came a fearless hunter, meting the wild denizens of the forest face to face and engaging 4n fierce struggles with the infuriat ed beasts. ^ He afterwards' be came a trainer, and his absolute mastery over the brute creation is not equalled by any living man. A laage steel enclosure will bo erected in the/penter of the exhi-, biti^n tent, ,in^ which the foro-I cious animals. jwiJt be turned loose, l^r, (i$ifanRer,,^iivii]y enter the enclosure, unarmed, and put them through far remark- series of p^orinaKM:es..-that will vividly illustrate their tre mendous strength and agility, it is a thrilling, hair raising sight Merchants Supply Co.

People on No. 8 beyond the river are getting impatient about the bridge over the river near the Burch "place. They want to haul in wood and its very incon venient, to say nothing of the trouble of the poor carrier. We have to keep a team on both sid es of the river and walk 2 miles eadj day rain or shine, mostly rain' Looks like the commission ers ought to get busy and repair the bridge.
