Henry Boyd Said to Have OunrreIed with
Another Man

The circumstances surrounding the death
OF Henry Boyd. in Henrlco county. are,
upon investigation, of such nature as to
more substantially warrant the suspicion

hours before his body was found.
From a gentleman we'll known i'm the
county It was learned yesterday morning
that a man intended TO move into the
house In which the body was found. The
dead man had refused 10 vacate. There
had been a dispute or quarrel between
the deceased and the man who wanted
Boyd TO move out.

lunacy In the case of Martha Braxton. a
negro woman. The woman was ad-
judged insane and ordered to be taken to
the asylum at Petersburg.

Beiiye 1t a Conspiracy.

LONDON, December 29.-The au-
thorities appear to be so thorough
ly convinced that the Dublin ex-
plosion by which Detective Syn
mott lost his life, was part Of the
work of band of conspirators,
that they have sent a detective to
Biarritz to keep guard over Mr..
Gladstone and protect him from
outrage. Mr.. Gladstone has not
been made aware Of the precaution
taken, as it is known that he would
resent any protection Of the kind
should he be aware Of it. Home
Secretary Asquith is also protected
when he goes out in public by a
detective in civilian attire, who
keeps near enough to interfere in
the event of an attack upon AS
quith. In view of all the precau-
tons taken. the opinion prevails
that the authorities are in posses
sion Of definite and important in
formation Us to the existence of
formidable dynamite conspiracy.

The New Yea number of the
Baltimore Episcopal Methodist,
organ of the Baltimore Conference
NJ. E. Church South, is unusually
interesting. 1t gives a page Of let
ters from the various charges of
the Conference, besides the usual
amount of editorial matter and
choice selections. We notice that
Rev. J. w. Boyd, d. d. has been
employed as editor. From him we
expect much as he YIELDS a grace
ful pen. 1t seems to us that the
paper is we'll adapted to the needs
of families, and we think ought to
have large circulation il our
county. The weekly raports of
Market Prices" is reliable and
fully as well suited to the demands
Of our farmers as the secular jour
nails. It is published by Rev. c.
w. Poland, Baltimore, at $500
per year, and we think well worth
the money.
