The blaze broke out in the brick store occupied by L. T. Edens shortly after 12 o'clock and was not discovered until it?was beyond control. This store and practically all of the stock of general merchandise were completely destroyed. The flames spread from there to a large wooden building owned by L. / K. Jackson. This was unoccupied and was burned to the ground. . For a time the depot was threatened, the only thing that saved it was an engine on the tracks at the time, which furnished water to the bucket brigade. Mr. Edens had insurance of $2,000 on his stock, while the building, the property of Mrs. K. J. Brogdon, wa3 partially covered by $1,000 insurance. The building of Mr. Jackson had $1,000 insurance on it.

' . , : I _ GUNMEN PARDONED Two Men Who Shot Up Court House Given Their Kreedbh Richmond, Va., April 30.?During a dramatic moment in the office of the governor here this afternoon, finis was written to the final chapter of a story which 14 years ago sent three court officials reeling int<\ eternity during the famous "Alien' Gang" trial at Hillsville, and caused a nation to gasp with horror. Sida Allen and Wesley Edwards, two of the six principals in the tragedy ufter years of imprisonment for their part in shooting up the court on the memorable March 14, 1U12, were granted conditional pardons by Governor Harry F. Byrd several years before their terms would have expired. As far as the state of Virginia is concerned, the famous Allen case is closed history. The pardons of the'two men today recalled the tragedy of long standing in the mountains of southwest Virginia. A judge, the sheriff of the court, and the commonwealth's attorney of the court which was trying Floyd Allen, charged with a minor offense, were victims of the guns which barked from every corner of the courtroom. Judge Thornton L. Massie, Sheriff Lewis F. Webb and Commonwealth Attorney William M. Foster, did not live to see order restored from the riotous mob-spirit that terrorized the town after the court was thrown into turmoil by the unexpected raining of the leaded pellets of death into the tranquility of the small court room. A juror, another victim, subsequently died from wounds when struck by a bullet as he sat in the jury box. A Tip on Making'Money Every man wishes to make money. Here is the surest and safest way: Make yourself useful! Don't gam-hie, jdon't speculate, don't try to get something for nothing. Give 1 useful, conscientious service. Do each job that comes your way the best you can. That's about all there is to it. This formula may not bring you a millionaire's income, but it will enable you to own your home, educate your children, and spend the sunset years of your life in peace and contentment. ------y . . There may be exceptions; the best we can do is to speak in terms of averages, but if you make yourself useful the chances are all in your favor. If this sounds like old stuff, just ^remember that there were men living 2,000 years ago who were just as wise as any of us are today. The basic rules of life hav(e not changed?only conditions. The most successful individuals and most successful businesses, are invariably those that are performing some useful service. Sometimes a business gets so big that the man at the top appears to be doing nothing except draw a stiff salary for looking wise. As a matter of fact, he would gladjy trade his jab for your job. He now has to depend on others to do things he once did himself. This is not easy. Years ago this man probably did the most ordinary tasks. He did them so well that he was givfefy more work than he could handle alone.? So he hired others to help him. He trained them to do things his way. His employes may number thousands today, but the idea back of the whole business is hone'st, useful service, and the inspiration for this service comes from the man on top. That, briefly, is the story of every successful man?Gyrus Curtis, the publisher Charles Schwab; the Steel man; Woolworth, the five-and-tencent store man; Heinz, the pickle man; Proctor, the soap man. Each started by doing a useful job well, and those that are living are. still at it.:?Civic Opinion... p ' ? Why the Rush? Old Farmer Tightmoney wasn't i .stingy. He was merely economical in the management of his big farm .and all hiB hired hands. One morning while repairing the curb to his un- J derground cistern, he very unexpect-' edly fell in, pulling the rope in with .him as he went down. Having al-, ways been a good swimmer, he had" no trouble in keeping afloat, but the: 4 water was cold and he couldn't climb out. His wife was helpless, alone and without a rope. "John!" she yelled excitedly down to him. "Ill ring the dinner bell so's the boys can come in and pull you out." "What time is it?" he yelled. 44 'Bout 11 o'clock." . "No, dang it, let 'em work till dinner time. Ill just swim around till come." ?From Everybody's Magazine. * ADMINISTRATOR'S NOTICE All parties indebted to the estate of Mrs. Gertrude Estridge, deceased, are hereby notified to make payment at once to the undersigned, and all parties, if any, having claims against the said estate will present them ^uly attested within the time prescribed by law.
