JUDGE DupUY HAS QUALIFIED.
Took the Oath of Office Yes.
terday.
He VIII Open Court on the Second Monday
In ApriI-His Late Opponent Extends
Congratulations-No New Clerks to DO
Appointed-The Clerks of the Corpora
ton Courts VIII Attopd to the business
of the New Court.

Judge j. a. Dupuy yesterday took the
oath Oh oiiice as judge Of the eighteenth
judicial circuit of Virginia.
This circuit is composed of Bedford
county and the city OF Roanoke, and, as
will be remembered, was created at the
last session of the legislature. Mr..
Dupuy was elected as its judge after a
spirited but friendly contest, his op-
pouent being Martin p. Burke, we'll.
known attorney of Bedford CITY. The
good feeling existing between the two
gentlemen was fully verified by the fact
that, as soon as Mr.. Dupuy was elected.
Mr.. Burke rendered congratulations.
and also invited Mr. Dupuy to make his
(burke's) Office his Headquarters while
at Bedford City.
Mr.. Dupuy's election to this position
will necessitate his retirement as a
practitioner, as the law does not allow
circuit judge to practice during his
term of Office.
His headquarters will be in this citv.
and there will be four quarterly terms
OF the court held here each year. The
law provides that the first term shall
open on the second Monday in January,
and the other three on the second Mon.
days in April, July and November
respectively. There will DO only three
terms yearly in Bedford, the first be-
ginning on tho second Monday in Fob
ruary; the second on tho 25th of Nav
and the third on the second Monday in
October.
The first court that Judge Dupuy will
hold, therefore. will meet in Roanoke on
the second Monday in April, 1892.
Judge Dupuy informed TIMES reporter
yesterday that no rev clerks will be ap-
pointed as under the general laws OF
Tho Sta . the clerl1 of tho corporation
court and the clerk of Bedford county
court will attend to the business of the
new court, each in their respective
localities.
From present Indications the new
Judge will have his hands full, as there
are already 700 cases on the docket in
Bedford which he will have to dis.
pose of.

York, with the suggestion that the re-
SUIT OF tho State elections in New York
had not been of Il character to encour-
age the Democratic party.
MIR. McMillin retorted that an OK
Speaker had, on Monday last referred
to the triumphant march of truth. That
march was emphasized by the fact that
the gentleman from Maine (Mr. Reed)
no longer occupied the chair, but was
rolegatcd to tho floor, where he could do
nothing but curse and cry daughter. }
The city of the gentleman from
Maine (Portland) had gone Democratic
the other day. Mr.. Reed, who was in
the cloak room when his name was
mentioned. strolled down one of the
aisles, and as he did so, drawled out an
apology that he had not been present
because he knew that the gentleman
from Tennessee was speaking. Laugh
teri
Mr.. McMillin replied that he cared
not what the gentleman's reason for
being absent was. At the conclusion
OF MIR. McMillin's speech he was the 70
cipient of magnificent cluster of red
roses, and his Democratic colleagues
honored him with generous applause.
Mr.. Dingley, of Maine, was the next
speaker. Pending the conclusion of Mr..
Dineley's speech, the committee arose
and the House adjourned.

THREE NEGROES LYNCHED.
Mob Law Ruled in Memphis
Yesterday.
The Jail Entered and the Mon Taken Out.
They We're the Ring Leaders of n Gang
Who Assaulted Four Deputies Tho
Mob Small One-The Negroes Taken
to an Open Fold Near tho River aud
Shot.

MEMPHIS, Tenn, March Especial IL
Several negroes were taken from tho
jail here at ais a. m. and hurried off by
mob which numbered about seventy
five people. There were twenty-seyen
in the Jail charged with assault with in
tent to kill, for ambushing and shooting
down four deputies, who tried to arrest
negro Saturday night for minor
otfense.
The mob gained admission by the old
trlck OF two men ringing tho bell and
answering the challenge by giving the
name of well-known officer, Hugh
Williams, OF Whitehaven. and saying
That they had prisoner for the Jail
Watchman O'Donnel opened the outer
door and two men pushed in. When
O'Donnel saw they were masked he at
tempted to draw pistol, but they seized
his arms and Immediately others of the
party came through the gate.
ODonnell was bound with a rope and
two men left to watch him while tho
others made their way through the Jail,
and the men wanted were soon found.
Nobody olse was molested. Calvin Me-
Dowell, Tom Moss and William Stuart,
leaders of tho negro gang. wore gagged
and bound and taken out.
When they reached an open field near
Wolf river the gags were remov, d, and
for tho first time they wore allowed to
speak. AS the gags were removed Moss
said:
IF you are going to kill us turn our
faces to the west"
Tho words were scarcely out OF his
mouth when the firing began, and the
negroes were shot to pieces. The mob
turned about as soon as 1t had COM
pleted its work, and. at tho first cross
ing, separated and disappeared as
silently as it had assembled.
The bodies OF tho dead negroes were
brought to Walsh's undo rtaking estab-
lishment about 1870 this morning. In
less than fifteen minutes the place was
surrounded by about two hundred
negroes.
All were afraid to talk, however, on
account of tho near proximity OF the
whites, but on the edges of the crowd
were heard many mutterings and curses.
The inquest was held at 10 a, M, nnd
the bodies were sent to their homes
at Curve. At 1915 word reached
the city that the negroes wore as
sembling in largo numbers at Curve.
Judge Dubose Immediately equip oed
$50 men with Winchesters and they left
for that locality.

joycd by his friends.
lie felt badly and thought he could
diagnose his own case and prescribe the
proper remedy with the case and sue
cess which attends his efforts at enter
tanning patrons of his house. What he
determined his ailment to be was not
divulged to tho reporter, but the pre-
scription embraced handful OF pills,
which were swallowed.
The patient says he is now satisfied
that he knows more about running o
hotel than doctoring sick people, and
that hereafter he will stick to the former
and let licensed physician attend to
his anatomy when itneeds medical treat
mont.
The TIMES is glad to report that his
declaration that he was dying, whom
visited by friend, was as big mistake
as his attompt to practice medicine.

Another matter brought to our atten.
