FUNERAL SERVICES OF FATHER ANDREW.
The Rev. Father Andrew, a highly es-
teemed Catholic priest, whose death we
noticed on Friday, was buried on Satur-
day morning. The remains were hrst
taken TO ST. Patricks church, where a
part Of the funeral ceremonies were
performed over the deceased. The body
was then escorted to St. Peters cathedral,
where the masses for the dead were said
with all the soemnty of this ancient
Church. Bishop McGill oiliciated, and
was assisted by Dr.. Becker, master of
ceremonies, and Fathers Hagan and
Brady. Several other priests from this
city, Norfolk, Petersburg, and Frede-
ricksbrlrg, were also in attendance. The
services preliminary to the sermon, the
avas for the dead and the masses, were all
rccited in the Latin tongue. The sermon
was preached from the text: " He that
teareth the Lord it shall be well with him
in the latter end, and he shall be blessed
in his DEATH"
In the course of the sermon the Bishop
gave brief biographical sketch Of the de-
ceased relating the principal clrcum-
stances of his life, and dwelling partlcu..
ly upon his change of faith in 1896, ana
his subsequent assumption OF the WORK oi
u minister Of the gospel.
The remains were deposited in vault
of the Catholic cemetery. The funeral
procession was nearly five squares in
length, and made an imposing appearance
as it passed up Main street from st. Fat
rick's 10 the cathedral.

murder case which has attained so much
notoriety under this title will be called
before the Circuit Court of ucnrico, IN
the Hall Of the House Of Delegates, at 10
O'Clock this morning.
The evidence in the case having been
transmitted all over the State by means
of the newspapers of the day, it is antici-

culty in finding jury to try the accused.

that the counsel for the defence will apply
for Il change Of venue.

Two NEGRO CHILDREN SHOOT AND
| BADLY WOUND A NEGRO MAN.-About
half-past 3 O'Clock Saturday evening two
colored boys and man got into difficulty
near the corner of Broad and Ninth
streets, which resulted in the man being
shot and badly wounded.
| It appears that the two boys and this
negro met near the corner above men
toned. Some words passed between them,
when the man choked one Of them, drew
a knife, and rushed upon the other. One
of the boys drew and fired pistol. The
pistol was gle-barreled, but was: loaded
with two balls, one of which struck and
LODGED in the chest of the man, and the
other struck the breastbone and glanced
off, inhicting only slight wound. The
other wound is serious. The man, after
being shot, fell to the ground. He was
picked up and carried to DR.. Lyons's
office, where the proper medical assistance
was given. Shortly afterwards he was re-
moved to his home.
The wounded man is named James Bur
nett, and the boys respectively Joseph
Dorrell and Robert Anderson, each about
twelve years of age. Robert Anderson
was arrested on the spot by Sergeant Cou-
sins. Dorrell fed, but was arrested few
hours afterwards by policeman Angle and
lodged with his friend Anderson in the
same cell at the Second station-house.
Dorrell says that the man choked him
and rushed upon Anderson with the knife,
whereupon Anderson fired.
Anderson states that Burnett choked
him and drew knife and made break at
Dorrell, who snatched the pistol out OF his
(Anderson's) pocket and fired.
Each one says that he can bring wit
nesses to prove that his statement is cor
rect, and Anderson further states that he
is willing to swear upon ten thousand or
any other number of Bibles that what he
says is true. :,
They will be examined before the Mayor
to-day.

CIRCUIT Court OF HENRIcO-JUDGE
CHRIsTIAS.-The fall term Of this court
commenced on Saturday. The following
gentlemen constituted the grand jury :
J. A. Hutcheson, foreman; W. l.. Harri-
son, John Hughes, Winston Jordan, John
D. Mckenzie, Henry Vogler, Francis
Adams, II. A. Watt, C. S. Pulaski, F.
Brauer, G. W. Barker, j. G. Burton, II.
Lofand, Isaac 0. Austin, L. Chamberlain,
P. 7. Atkinson, J. +. Roweli, and Alexan-
der Kerr.
In the course of bis charge to the grand
jury, Judge Christian remarked that on
previous occasions since the close of the
war he had generally spoken particularly
of the changed relation Of the whites and
blacks Of Virginia, specially urging the i'm
portance Of avoiding prejndice on account
of color. He took pleasure, however, in
saying that in his circuit, which was one OF
the largest in the district, and probably
embraced in its jurisdiction larger num-
Der OF negroes than any other, he had
never yet met with an instance in which
q grand or petit jury had been in any de-
gree influenced By such prejudice.
After an absence Of several hours IN
their room, the grand jury came into court
and reported that they had found true
bills against James J. Phillips for murder,
and William Jones (colorcd) for felonious
houSebreakihg.
The jury for the trial Of civil cases was
discharged until Friday next, and the
grand Jury were informed that their at
tendance would be no longer required.
The court then adjourned until 10 A
NJ. to-day.
