since Joe Davis a miner residing at Glen
Mary, on the Cincinnati Southern rail
road, was robbed of $1,000 by two
masked men, who threatened to kill
him if he refused to reveal the hidingplace of
his money. Tuesday night one of the
men, named Franklin, was captured by a
posse of citizens, who deliberately filed his
body and head with buckshot and then placed
his remains on the railroad track, in order
to divert suspicion. His body was horribly
mutilated by train, and the fact that he
had been shot was discovered by accident.

New YORK, Aug. 29.-The death of Rich
ard Tweed, the eldest son of the late William
M. Tweed, at n mad-hous near Paris is re,
ported by cable He was born in this city
about forty-t!:Tee years ago. He early left
the public schools and entered upon the study
of law, but after his graduation never en-.
gagged in active practice. He was for a time
clerk i'll the comptroller's Office,
under Richard B. Connolly, and
for year or two he was
assistant district attorney when s. B. Garvin
was at the head of that office. He was not
ambitious politically, ana held himself aloof
from that class Of politicians who surrounded
his father He was better known as man
about town than in any other capacity dur
ing the golden period of the Tweed regime.
After the downfall of the ring he left New
York for New Orleans, where he remained
several years, finally making his residence in
Europe. His mind has been affected several
years, necessitating his confinement in the
asylum, where he died He is understood to
have left little or no property.
