Sentenced to be Hanged.

VIM. Houston the murder of Kate Cosby,
was sentenced by Judge Clark Monday
afternoon to be hanged on the 21st day OF
June hen asked by the judge if he
had anything to say, Houston arose to his
feet and stated that he had nothing to say
only that the murder was upintentionally
committed and that he begged the mercy Of
the court. Judge Clark then stated that the
court was unable TO grant mercy, as he had
been found guilty of murder, which was a
capital crime He then said that this was
'the fruits of strong drink. The Bible says
committed the sin and you must soon re-
ceive its wages, which is DEATH You shall
be taken by the sheriff and placed in close
confinement in the county JAIL until the
21st day of June, between the hours of u
and / O'Clock, when you shall be conveyed
to the place for execution and there be
hanged by the neck until you are dead,
dead, dead, and may God have mercy on
your soul" Judge Clark pronounced the
sentence and addressed his remarks to the
prisoner in very solemn and touchin g
way which caused more than one person
present to fully realize the awful punish
ment that awaits those who, whether they
are under the influence of liquor or not,
willfully and in cold blood take the life of
another. The prisoner himself did not
seem to be much affected, and was very cool
and self possessed.

The Roanoke s. Southern,

In speaking of the Roanoke & Southern
railroad, the Martinsviile Herald says: cit
cannot be said with certainty how long the
contractors will be in grading the line to
Ridgeway. but they hope to complete that
part of the line early in July. The next
section that part of the route between
Ridgeway and Marrowbone creek, three
miles, has no heavy work for the contractors.
The excavations and embankments are I'M
usually light. For the three miles between
the creek and Smith river heavy work will
BE- required, as will be the case from the
river to Martinsville, and the progress will
be slow, though it seems probable that the
contractors will push through to Martins
vile by Christmas of this year."
