DANvILLR. Va, November IA cow
ardly assault was made last night by a
negro on Mr. Solomon Stone. the aged
Waterman OF the Danville and New River
depot, particulars of which were not
learned until to-day. Mr.. Stone was
walking in front of the depot building
when he met party Of negro boys. One
of them, Andrew Glover by name, asked
MIR. Stone for chew Of tobacco.
APowERFUL BLOW.
The old gentleman replied that he had
no tobacco, whereupon, without any
provocation whatever, the negro dealt
HIM powerful blow with the butt-end
Of broken billiard-cue, which he held
in his hand. MIR. Stone fell TO the ground
and bled profusely, but his son soon
came up and took him home. A scalp
wound five inches long was inflicted and
the old man is now in a critical condi-
ton, though it Is not believed that the
skull Is fractured. He is peaceable
man and everybody likes him.
ESCAPE or THE NEGRO.
Why the negro assaulted him is a
mystery and Alr. Stones friends are so
indignant at the outrage that il they
could lay their hands on the scamp
they would not show him much mercy.
The negro ran of as soon as he knocked
the old man down, and at this writing
had not been captured. but he was seen
to Jump on an outgoing train this after
noon, and it Is believed he will be over
hauled tonight.

The noteworthy feature Of the cleo

publican machine, in accordance with
directions from Malone, ordered the ne
groes not to 90 to the polls. In no other
southern State do positive orders Of this
sort appear to have been given. but in
few places did the negroes manifest any
more interest IN the result than in Yir-
