Capt. John W. Jordan for the last Gity
years connected with the iron Industries
Oh the southwestern part Of the State, died
in Lexington on Thursday in the seventy
seventh year of his age.
John s. Horner, died February md at Ri
pom: Wisconsin, at the advanced age of so
years. He was the third son of the late DIR.
Gustavus &. Horner, of Fauquier county,
and was born in Warrenton
a few days ago negro girl about ] , years
old, at Randolph gold mine, near Morris
vile, Fauquier county,. picked up a cart
ridge with chips at the wood bile and
threw it in the fire. II exploded and tore
the girls thumb and index finger from the
right hand.
Between twelve and one o'clock on Fri
day morning, Richard Walker, foreman of
the chemical works at Richmond was stab
bed by George Bouldin, colored, and died in
few minutes. The negro had been dis
charged from the works by Walker and
took this method of revcnging himself
Bouldln escaped and is still at large Walk
er was from New York. He leaves wife
and child.
The trial of George Amiss for the murder
Of }. }. Burner continues in Staunton. The
evidence Of Fannie Lewis, in whose room
Burner was shot, conflicts with that Of tho
other woman, who saw the parties scutlling
Immediately after the fatal shot was fired.
She says she saw no pistol, and neither man
spoke word all the time. The absence of
such evidence from the only party who saw
the shooting rs the prosecution hoped to
get renders il vital to the making ont of a
case that the dying testimony Of Burner
| should be admitted. He told the story to
four different persons, but not in The foYll
of deposition before an officer The
whole day was taken up the examination
ofwtnesses by the Commonwealth to prove
that Burner considered death imminent
The jury were excluded from the court room
during the taking of this evidence. and the
court will decide to-day whether this dying
| testimony shall be admitted.
