Wednesday afternoon negro
man named Briggs, who is employed
by the Atlantic and Danville Rail.
road, engaged some mon to help
him clean up tho building on the
corner of High and Crawford
streets, recently occupied by the
Atlantic and Danville Railroad, SO
that the company could turn it over
to the owners to-day, their lease
having expired. He had iustruc
tons to get 1t cleaned that night so
that he would not have another
months rent to pay.
The negroes got about three cart
loads OF paper out of the building
and put it in the yard. The owner
objected to allowing it remaining
loose, so the darkey applied to the
Chief of Police to know what dis
position to make of 1t, and was told
to place it IN barrels and let it re.
main on the promises until yester-
day and then put it in the street,
but he did not do this, but hired II
truck aud deposited it at the foot of
Columbia street, besides scattering
1t ell along the street. Yesterday he
paid 50 tiue but saved the rent.

MURDER AT PINNER's POINT.
Marshall Robinson Kills Noah Will
son in Gold Blood.

Yesterday afternoon about 3:i5
O'Clock a difficulty occurred at Pin.
ner's Point on the Norfolk and
Carolina property, in which a
colored man named Marshall Robin
son killed another colored man
named Noah Wilson.
The particulars "a we learned
them from Robinson in his cell last
night are that he had been buying
some food from Wilson's mother aud
that he owed her 81 cents but only
paid ~, and told her he would pay
the other IL next pay day. Her
reply WAS, "All right"
Shortly afterwards her son Noah
cnmo up and said "Why don't you
pay mother that IL cents?" [ said
that she was satisfied. Wilson said,
"You lie." He looked like he was
going to do something. [ did not
know what. When asked what he
expected him to do, he said some
thing, and L then shot him twice.
The ball that did the work struck
him behind tho ear and passed
through the brain leaving large
hole, through which the brains
oo2ed out.
He then ran of but was captured
by some colored men and was con-
fined until Constable Ripley from
this city and Constable Anderson
from the county came out after him.
Ia was sorry the man was shot but
lie was afraid that he would hurt
him unless he shot him.
Robinson is not more than %
years OF age and the other man is
about the same age, They both
were employed as truck hands at
Norfolk and Carolina road aud had
neyerahad any trouble before.

RAILROAD ITEMS.

The engineering force on the west side,
which is making the permanent location
Of the line from Warrenton to Flavel,
has been largely increased in the last day
or two and all hands are working early
and late in order to rush the work
through. The men hardly take time to
eat and after supper busy themselves cut
ting grade stakes.
The question of a depot site Is still un-
settled and is a source of some discus
sion amongst interested parties. The lo-
cation just east of the o. r. & N. dock
is urged by many while the present CEN
ter of the town at F'lavel's dock is con.
sidered by others as the only proper place
for a depot Whatever location is de-
cided upon it should be settled quickly,
as the matter is of too much Importance
to be allowed to drag.
There seems to be some delay on the
part of the committee in turning over the
abstracts Of title to the subsidy and right

The committee in charge could not be
seen, but it is presumed that the delay
is only temporary one and that the
matter win he adjusted at once, so that
all difficulties will be removed from the
path of the contractors.

SOME FRENCH FANCIEs.

Paris is full as an egg until after the
Grand PrlX, when the season nominally
comes to an end, and everybody takes
flight to the chateauX, the mountains,
or the seashore writes the Comtesse de
Champdoce in Vogue. AT Auteuil, the
other day, the dresses were mostly light,
crisp, and of pristine freshness. 1 greatly
admired some old-1lshioned flowered
gauze frocks worn over silk, and Of the
most delicate and ethereal tints. The
grand chic is for these dresses to be
painted by hand, an expensive fad, to
be sure, but still very effective and pret-
ty. One TAN, aristocratic bride of the
year, who bids fair to become on of our
greatest leaders" wore an exquisite
gown of this kind. 1t was of white pine
apple batiste over white taffetas, and
was panied with quaint garands and
clusters of dandelion fluff, pink thistles,
and candy tuft. The bodice was orna-
mented from neck to waist in front with
finely plated frills of corn-colored VAL
enciennes, the full sleeves, the waist and
neck being tied with corn-colored velvet
ribbon, and the Lamballs hat Of coarse,
corn-hued straw, being trimmed with a
full box-plaiting of Valenciennes around
the crown affixed here and there with
rose a high, over-curllng aigrette, and
white gloves, white suede shoes, and
white peau-de-coie parasol, gold-mounted
and covered with Valenciennes, gave the
finishing touches to this very dainty cos
tune.
l must now let my readers into little
secret de toilette which may prove use
full and even agreeable, especially to
those whose compilations no longer pos
sess the fraicheur of extreme youth. They
may themselves have notices that white
wells, although SO cool and agreeable for
summer wear, have the effect of inten-
styling every defect or blotch upon the
skin. I would therefore advise them to
line these wells with very diaphanous
pink gauze, being careful to choose flesh
and not blush or mauvish pink. This
precaution will insure both youthful anu
a well-groomed appearance to the swarth-
lest compleXion
