In October, 1884, Mr.. W. p. Nc
Cain, about five miles from town, was
assaulted by two or three men in his
store and so beaten that it was thought
he would die. Two of the men charged
with the assault, Joe Wynn and Bob
Lee Ramey. escaped to Charlotte, n.
c.. and, though they were arrested
there, somehow or other they were not
brought to Virginia. A few days ago

democratic Meeting In Charles city.

Mr.. X. y. Thomas, of Isle OF Wight,
made fine impression in his speech at
Charles City Courthouse the other day.
A correspondent writes
Captain John Lamb introduced Mr..
Thomas in eloquent and appropriate
language. The speech of Mr.. Thomas
was one Of the ablest presentations OF
the claims Of the Democratic party to
popular support that has been made
here for a long time. | have no time
to give even a synopsis, but will say
that he drew a parallel between the
political methods andpractices Of Aaron
Burr in New York in 1900 and those OF
Malone in Virginia in 1881 and 1882
and now that was very striking. His
discussion Of the subject of Democratic
legislation on the Riddleberger settle
ment was able. The contrast between
the principles and practices Of the two
par,ics was drawn with great power,
and his appeal to the Democrats to do
their whole duty was irresistible.
Delegates were appointed to meet the
New Kent delegation at the Forge Oh
the Goth.

The Murdered Chinese.


Rock SPRINGS, September l9.-ln
an interview last night Colonel Bee, the
Chinese Consul, stated that the present
investigation will continue for week
or ten days. 1t is certain that the
Chinese Government will demand an
indemnity from the United States, but
he cannot yet even guess at the amount.
So far all the testimony had shown that
the Chinese had returned here of their
own free will after receiving official as
surance from the President that they
would be protected if it took the whole
army. Though the miners are quiet
and no trouble threatens apparently,
the soldiers mount guard over the COM
pany's property at the different mines
every night, and strong picket-line is
thrown about the freight-cars in which
the Chinese are domiciled. The Union
Pacific is apparently firm in its deter
mination to put the Cinnamon back in
the mines here. 1t is building some
sixty cabins for them, and when these
are completed 1.-the heathens will
commence work. The officials of the
road here doubt that the Knights of
Labor will interfere, but say they will
maintain their position in spite of them
in case a strike should ensue.

A Physioian's Efforts 10 rid Himself of

An Akron special TO the Cleveland
Plain Dealer says:
The romantic town OF CuyahOga
Falls. Summit county, has been much
stirred up for the past few days over the
report that DR., j, M. Crafts, formerly q
physiclan AT the Falls, had sued his wife
for a divorce. The Interest over this
flair on the part Of the denizsns was
to-day much Increased by q telegraphlc
notice from Kansas City, Mo-, to the Of.
feet that DR.. Crafts was dead, and that
the remains had been sent 10 Auburn,
Geauga county, o The trouble In the
Crafts family 10 of a highly sensational
order. IL appears that about q year ago
Mr.. and Mrs. Crafte, after having fut-
cred cOnnublal infelicity for a long
time, went TO Cleveland, where the doc
tor gave hls wife $1,000 aud then left
for the west. Before this time, how
eylr, Mra. Crafts had been an invalid
for u long time, and her hual and fre'
qnently felt her pulse and told her that
ahe had Brlghps disease, and could not
recover.
A few days ago Mrs. Crafts, through a
paper printed In an obscure country
town In Missouri, learned that her hua-
band had sued her for divorce on o charge
OF deaertiOn, Mira Crafts az once pre-
pared q counter petition for divorce on
q claim of adultery and charge OF at
tempted killing by giving her poison
which caused the sickness the doctor Ia
said to have called Bright's disease, An
attorney representing Mrs. Crafts,
armed with their papers and proper de-
positions from people In CuyahOga
Falls, stepped into the Missouri court
room when the Crafts divorce case was
called, 40 much TO the surprise OF DR..
Craf.a that the case waa not proceeded
with. After this Mre. Crafts returned TO
her home In Geauga county, awaiting
Developments which now come In the
ann0un cement that DR.. Crafts Ia dead,
and that his body has been shipped 10
his wife.
At the time Of the separation In
Cleveland. which was about a year ago,
Mra. Crafts went to the Woodland
avenue water cure, owned In part and
operated by Mrs. Crafts brother. Here
she soon wholly recovered, which gives
rise TO the belief that her previous eick'
mesa had Deen caused by the doc'or's
own treatment.
DR.. Crafts was divorced before hlh
marriage with the present Mra. Crafts,
aud II Ia rumored that his reason for
seeking divorce was TO marry again TO
a young lady new residing In Cuyahoga
Falls. The lrst wife OF this sleek doc
tor now resides In Warren, 0hle, In
afllnence and happlness, Dr. Crafts
own father committed suicide at Cuya'
hoga Falls number Of years ago.
