DEATH OF A WELL-KNOwN CITIZEN. -
Yesterday morning at > O'Clock Mr.. james
Brooks. Il prominent citizen OF this city.
died at his rooms, in the Exchange Hotel.
Mr.. Brooks was for q number OF years
closely identified with many OF our leading
business enterprises, and through course
of long years bore himself so As to COM
mand the respect OF the business world
The example he set i'm this respect was
a shining one, and cOmmcnds itself to all
who launch forth upon the uncertain and
trying scenes Of busy life. Born in Ten
ncssec in 1902, he removed TO Richmond
when but boy, and commenced life here
at the very foot OF the ladder OF wealth.
shortly afterwards he moved to Carriers
vile, in Cumberland county, and after
living there awhile returned to Richmond
i'm 1927. BY close attention to business he
had by this time acquired considerable
means. and his fine business habits caused
him TO be sought out by gentlemen OF
wealth and trade tact.
He formed q cO-partnership with McssrS.
BnfOrd IL Jones, and afterwards, under
various firm-names, with Messrs. Crouch,
Bell, Elicit, Walker, Pace. and Drcwry.
In all Of these business connections he won
the admiration and respect OF those with
whom he was associated, and never for
once swerved from the ,trictest and strong
est rules OF business probity.
On the 1st Of July, 1858, Mr.. Brooks re-
tired from business, having acquired in the
mean time 4 handsome competence. He
took up his residence i'm this city and re-
mained here until his death.
Some four or five wears AGO he was walk
ing up Main street, and when opposite
Stearns's block OF buildings happened to
tread upon glass-plating over a cellar-cap
At the same time that DIR. Newcombe did.
They were both prccipitated below, dis
tancc OF - feet. DR.. Newcombe died
shortly afterwards, and Mr.. Brooks never
fully recovered from the shock. His death
was the result OF the surrender OF nature
to the attacks Of time, his age being seven
ty-siX years.

A Fatal ARRAY.

Monday evening about 7 O'Clock diff
Guilty occurred at the corner OF Seventh
street and Louisiana avenue. Rockets, be-
tween Martin Fall and William J. Cham
pion, residents OF that portion of the city,
resulting in the death Of the latter. The
affair is shrouded somewhat in mystery.
and meagre facts only could be obtained
yesterday.
The following Is all that could be gith-
cred Fall, 1t seems, while walking out
with some ladies met Champion, who was
considerably under the influence OF liquor.
Champion drew pistol and brandished il
threateningly in their presence, accompa-
nying his gestures with language which
implied an intention OF using the weapon
The ladies quickly left, giving evidence
at the same time OF alright. IL is not
positively known whether Fall saw them
home or whether ne covered their retreat
by making an attack at once upon Cham
pion; but whether this be so or not, il Is
true that an alteration followed, ana that
in II Champion met his death at the hands
OF Fall, adding 4 fatal climax to the list OF
Christmas accidents. The difficulty oc-
CURED about O'Clock, and Champion lin
gered during the night in an unconscious
'biibhi'Hs Wy ihS dbbht " NibNh At>-
terday morning. He bore bruises and cuts
about the face, throat, arms, and body.
and, besides. had his skull fractured Just
above the left eye and near the top OF the
brow. IL is not known what sort OF weapon
was used to infict the wounds, but it is
claimed by Fall that he did not use a knife.
Several parties witnessed the affray, but
they are reticent aS TO details, and the real
facts in the case will not be drawn out,
perhaps, until the coroner's inquest is
held. Coroner Taylor viewed the
body yesterday morning and had
witnesses and Jurors summoned 10
attend the inquest this morning ct II
O'Clock. 4 poSt-mOrtem examination will
precede the inquest. Fall was arrested by
Sergeant Whitlock Monday night about .
O'Clock. In the Police Court yesterday his
examination was postponed until Friday to
await the action OF The Coroner's jury.
The deceased was about twcnty-seyen
years OF age. and leaves a wife and two
children. He was regarded by those who
knew him as n quiet, inoflenSiye man.
Fall is twenty years Of age, and was EN-
ployed as brakeman on the eastern extern
sion OF the Chesapeake and Ohio railway.

Female Field Hands

A late essayist notes that IN
proportion as education and home
comfort increase. English women
refuse TO 20 into the field as day
laborers. This is the case through
out the country, though many
women, from a love of the com
parative liberty such labor implies,
still continue it, just as in lace
making, willow-stripping and glove
trimming districts they reject
domestic service for these employ
ments. Very few women IN South
Devon work in the fields, and
fewer every wear, which Is just
the case in Lincolnshire as well.
In the Ottery district in South
Devon a woman's wages fer field
work is one shilling a day, some
