Shocking Murder of an Old Farmer
in Virginia.
After Being Shot Down His Skull Was
Crushed In, Throat Cut and the
Body Robbed.

Richmond, Va, Nov GA Luray, Va,
special to the Dispatch says:
One of the most shocking and brutal
murders ever perpetrated in this county
was committed yesterday afternoon at the
home OF Mr.. Willis d. Kibler, near the base
of the Massanutton Mountain, about five
or six miles northwest of Luray.
Mr.. kibler himself was the victim. He
was seyenty-one years old, and unma rred
and his household consisted Of himself and
nephew, Newton KILLER. a boy seventeen
or eighteen years of age, who was ploughing
not very far from the house when his
uncle returned home about O'Clock, after
having been to Springfield TO vote. Mr.
Kibler said he was not feeling well, and
after giving the boy some directions, went
to the house.
About an hour afterward. the nephew
heard the report of a gun, and four or five
minutes later two mure shots, and upon
going to the house, discovered the dead
body of his uncle lying in the yard. He
had been shot in the left side OF the face,
the load ranging upward and entering the
brain. The back part of his head was
crushed in with a blunt instrument, and
the victims throat was cut, the wind
pipe being severed. The shots were fired
through the window of the kitchen as the
unfortunate man approached or looked
in the window and were sufficient to cause
death.
The murderer, however. made sure work
of Fastening the end by the blow on the
head and the use of the knife. The gun
used belonged to the murdered man, and
an AK. said not to belong on the place,
was fou nd.
The pocket OF the slain mans coat,
where he usually carried his money, was
found empty, and a pocket diary he had
kept for nearly thirty years was found
near the body. Some suspicious are enter
tanned as TO the perpetrator of the hor-
rible deed. The deceased was Con-
fetierate veteran and generally respected.

Richmond, Va. Nov. 6.-The returns
from all but three outlying counties in
dicate that the loss to the Democrats in
yesterdays election viii be five in the
senate and ten in the house. The senate
Will stand "a Democratic, IND for the
opposition, 3 or the latter being Repub-
licans. The house viii have 7S Demo-
Gratis and P2 in the opposition, Republic
ans and Populists.
The lesson, OF 1he campaign is thought
10 be found in the Overwhelming defeat
of State Senator NJ. L. Walton in the
famous TeIsth district by an overwhelming
majority. He was personally very pop
ular, and Ill is alleged spent thousands in
the election, but because the election law
which bears his name is SO obnoxious, he
was not returned.

HISLOP MUST KEEP PEACE.
Gives Bond in the Police Court TO Not
BOTHER the Whites

tDDIil III INC Nohit w ~ 'ob
Bother the whites.
The case OF Dr. William l. Hislop, the
dentist, who was arrested Tuesday after
noon on a warrant sworn out by j. Kenneth
White, charging him with threats, as ex-
clusively stated in The Evening Times of
that date was tried before Judge Miller,
in the police court, yesterday.
Mr. White and his bride, nee Miss Ger
trude IIislop, were the prosecuting wit
nesses. Thetcstimony of thenewly welded
pair as well as that of the defendant, and
his sister, DR.. Margaret Hislop, brought
out several very interesting bits of family
history
The case ceptered around White and his
bride. The young lady was the supposed
ward of DR.. Margaret Hislop, and she and
her brother violently opposed the girls
union with MT. White. The brother
threatened TO kill White II the marriage
was accomplished, and on this threat the
warrant was sworn out.
White and his young wife testified to
the threats, and the latter told of the
manner in which she had been treated
by Dr. Margaret and the defendant.
When the defendant took the stand he
smoke in n very heSitating manner, and the
character of his testimony was such as
TO induce Judge Miller to remark, at its
conclusion, that he needed looking after.
He said that what the young lady and
her husband regarded as thrents were only
expressions of filial affection and regard
for her BE said he was not related 20
her.
DR.. Margaret was then called and testi-
fled that she had heard nothing of any
threats.
Are You related to this young LADY,"
asked Judge Miller.
I'm her mother" was the unexpected
answer.
The statement created a little sensation
in the court room. and the young lady
vehernently denied the alleged relation
ship. DIR. Margearet's brother was re-
called, and he substantiated his sister s
statement and said he was the girls uncle.
He said that he, too, had been threatened
and by the prosecuting witness. He pro-
duced a letter from White to his bride,
written some time ago, but the court de-
cidcd that 1t was not threat.
In summing up he said that the young
lady was married to the man of her choice
and the two must not be molested. He
required the defendant to give $500 bonds
to keep the peace.
Mr. and Mrs. White began preparations
last night for a Western trip, on which
they will start In a few days.

synopsis of the reports
of the Trustees and SUI
perintendent of the Wes-
tern Hospital, which will
soon be submitted to the leg
islature. These reports show
that the institution has been
conducted with economy to
the state, and that the pa
tients have been properly
provided for. DR.. Douglas,
the Superintendent, is ever
watchful of his charges, and
the record made under his
regime shows that the in
mates have been benefit
ted in a remarkable degree,
mentally as we'll as otherwise.
Associated with him, is DR..
J. j. Nicely, assistant physi-
clan, to whom much OF the
credit of the successful term
just closed is given and is
properly due. Mr.. Frank 8.
Luther, the competent Stew
ard, has managed the busi-
ness affairs of the institution
admirably, and comes in for
his just share of praise. 1t
would indeed be a difficult
matter to find a more COM
petent set of officials thar
those in charge of the Wes-
tern Hospital. There are a
few improvements on the
premises necessary, and we
hope the legislature will deal
literally with this home for
the unfortunate.
