DIED ON THE TRAIN.
A CoIored Mans Death Near Milford from
"a RaHor-Wound.

The train from the North due here at
1910 O'Clock was somewhat late last night.
When il reached the station il was an
nounced that the body Of a colOred man
who had died between here and tredcrlcks-
burg was aboard.
The mans name was Haywood Johnson,
and the circumstances under when ne
died caused the train officials to inform the
police here 10y telegraph and they IN turn
notified Coroner TAYLOR.
Two police officers and the Coroner were
at the station when the train reached here.
II seems that soon after leaving tTede-
ricksburg some one informed Captain Bird
song. the conductor, tug, 4 man was aboard
badly wounded. The Captain went through
the coaches and found Johnson apparently
asleep, with some blood aoout the
face. The conductor did not interrupt
him, hut on returning through the
coach soon thereafter noticed that John-
son seemed To be in an unconscious con-
dition, and making an examination Iouhd
that he was nearly dead. DR.. Joseph \.
White happened 10 he on the tram and
CAPTAIN Birdsong cal q upon him TO eX-
anime the wounded man, who was found 70
have been stabbed through the small OF the
back and had bied nearly TO death. 1t was
impossible 10 save his life.
When Milford station was reached Cap
tain Birdsoug tried 10 find physician and
leave the wounded man in his care. One
of the doctors who lives at Milford was
quite sick himself and the other had gone
10 Bowling Green 10 attend a patient.
Nothing remained 20 be done but to bring
johnson on To Richmond, and he died
soon after leaving Milford.
After hearing the facts in the case Coro-
ner TAYLOR ordered that the body be sent
back to Frederick arg and turned over to
the police of that city.
Ii was learned that Johnson lived near
Penola station, in Caroline county, ana
had been up TO Fredericksburg. Just be-
fore the train upon which he intended re-
turning home reached that city ne haa
dificuity with Jordan Washington, another
colored man, and Johnson was stabbed
with a razor. IT was reported that the
latter was arrested as soon as the deed was
committed

Valentines Bust of the Late Thomas
Branch.

A private view Of the bust Of The Iete
Thomas Branch, executed by Valentine tor
Nr. Carter W. Branch, has been accorded
a number of our citizens who are familiar
with the features of the deceased. 1t Is a
striking piece of work, judged both from
an artistic point of view and as portrait
ure. Mr. Branch had leonine head and
features that would have attracted atten,
tion anywhere. The sculptor has modelled
every detail of the bust with the bOldness
the subject demanded, yet still managed
10 infuse into the expression a softness
that portrays Mr. Branch's gentler nature.
Ii is full Of character. full of that decision
for which Mr.. Branch was noted, but
benevolent with all. and stands the highest
test of sculpture 1t grows upon
one. and every view taken Of II suggest
some trait of the man As he WAS known in
life TO thousands in Richmond.
