HOMICIDE IN Yesterday
afternoon, an atrocious murder was CONF itted
An the village of Piscataway, Prince George
County, Nd, about sixteen miles from this
city The victim was Mr.. Charles Clemens
well known citizen OF the Sixth Ward of
this city. Mr.. Clements who has been engaged
in the butchering business with Mr. ]. H
Murphy, was in that section purchasing cattle,
and last evening about shutdown he stopped at
Harris store and purchased a watermelon,
which not being ripe he asked for another, or
the return Of his money. The boy, or young
man who was attending the store refused to
comply, when Mr.. Clements asserted that the
bargain was that IL the melon was not good he
should have another. The clerk denied this
and they commenced to quarrel when the
latter drew pistol from the desk or under the
counter and fired, the ball passing through
Mr.. Clements heart, killing him instantly. A
boy who was in the employ Of Mr.. Murphy
and the deceased was present at the time and
Immediately came up to the city, reaching here
In the night. when some of the friends Of the
deceased started down after his body Mr.
