INFLUENZA STILL HAGING.
Tho Blatemont made by Uie papers
recently that the "llu""had abated,
seems to have been somewhat pre?
mature. Reports from Roanoke,
Blueficld, and some other citicu, state
that the epidemic still exists, or hns
broken out afresh. The authorities
of the city of Roanoke are talking of
closing the schools unless teachers
and all school ollicers and the citizens
generally observe strictly prescribed
rules for prevention. It is reported
that there are hundreds of cases in
Pocahontno and many in Graham and
Blueficld. There are still a number
of cases scattered over the county.
Schools .May Close.
Should the '"flu" appear again in
this town it may be necessary to
again close the schools and other
places of public meeting. However,
if proper precautions are taken there
is little danger, but there is still
some danger. Nearly every incom?
ing train brings people from infected
districts outside. Members of fami?
lies visit around. Men and hoys who
are working in the coalfields come
home to see their families, and in
this way the disease may get to
town. Precaution?'Prevention pro
the magic words. Everybodv ough'
to know by this time how to pre?
vent it. Tenches in the schools must,
exercise eternal vigilance. Children
suspected should be sent home ami
the family physician notified. Par?
ents must ho on guard. No pupil
from infected families, even suspic?
ious cases, should be sent to school.
Unless thi" rules and warnings of tilt
Board of cnlth are heeded, there may
be trouble and the services of the
i ndcrtakcr needed.

reported Monday anil Tuesday. As
yet no one is seriously ill and the
malady appears to be in a lighter
form than when it swept the county

INTEREST IN Si ll'.
(Princeton Correspondence in Bluc
flcld Telegraph.)
The suit of William B. Crawford of
Blueficld against Edward .1. McQuail,
of Blueficld, which went to trial in the
circuit court here Tuesday, will reach
the jury some time this week. The
case, being one in which Crawford is
suing for $5,000 which he alleges is
the residue due him as a commission
for the sale of a boundary of coal
land, is drawing considerable inter?
est, particularly of lawyers, who are
closely observing the legal points in?
volved.
It appears that Crawford, who is
ii mining engineer, sometime in 1010
negotiated with the Raven Red Ash
Coal Company for the sale of a cer?
tain trail of coal land, September 17,
1910, he secured an option for the
talc of the properly. The option ex?
pired, but the evidence of the plain?
tiff purports thai Crawford seemed
v. renewal of it in the nature of a let?
ter and a telegram. The plaintiff
claims that after he got the option
renewed he received a letter from the
Raven Red Ash Coal Co., telling him
it would give him $ 10,000 for selling
the property. Later be got Dr. E. W.
Kirk, Lincoln, ami the McQuails in
tercsted in the propeily und after
they hail investigated the proposi?
tion upon his claim and the repre?
sentations of C. H. Neel secretary
and superintendent of the liven Red
Ash Co. they agreed to buy the land
the plaintiff claims, and pay him n
commission of $10,000 for his option.
The McQuails and their associates,
Crawford claimed, in the first agree?
ment he bail with them were to pay
him .* 10,000 or to organize a company
tml give him twenty per cent of the
stock. Later, however, Crawford
?us that the new option he secur?
ed from the Red Ash Co, was for the
stile of it at $100,000 and that the
tentative purchasers offered him a
commission of $10,000 to sign it over
to them.
Upon the consummation cf the deal
with Crawford for his option the Mc?
Quails, Lincoln anil Kir'.; organized a
company under the name of the Rav?
en Red Ash Coal Corporation,
In the meantimo it developed, nc
fording i<> the defendants, that Craw?
ford represented lo iber.i he \m sell
