WENT TO A FORTUNE TELLER
Juretta Miller, a colored woman, went
to sleep while sitting in chair at hei
home one night last week, and While
in dreamland her premises were enter
ed and robbed OF some clothes. Pre-
yious to this she had had some chickens
stolen. The old woman concluded she
would stand it no longer and went to
Lewis Boswell and paid him twenty
five cents to tell her where the clothes
and chickens went. The seer arranged
a greasy deck of cards, muttered some
thing unintelligible to his customer, cut
the cards, dealt them around in piles
and finally told the old woman he had
traced the stolen properiy-that both
chickens and clothes had crossed
water" and we're in the house of some
neighbor. Juretta lives long distance
from the river, and she went home in
some perplexity, not knowing exactly
how to locate any stream or body OF
water in her locality, but upon being
suddenly confronted by pond which
had been made by recent rain she
clapped her hands for joy, as directly
opposite YVES the house of neighbor
named Frances Bsyne. She lost no
time in accusing Frances and her entire
family Of being thieves, and became Sc
disorderly that it was necessary to have
her arrested. The Mayor this morning
heard the case. and after featuring
Juretta dismissed her.

in his possession which he said he
found. There was no evidence to show
that he had stolen them, and he was al
lowed to depart with the understanding
that he would be rearrested if complaint
was made against him. One of the
rings is at the station house.
1t is expected that within the next
two weeks contracts will be entered
into for the construction of the Wash
ington and Great Falls Electric Rail"
road, and work upon the road will be-
gin as soon thereafter as possible, and
will be pushed with all expedition.
The stockholders of the road were con-
fdent that they would be able to let out
the contracts few days ago, but owing
to the fact that several landowners
refused to grant the right of way
through their tracts it was impossible to
follow the original plans.
The heirs of Mrs. Mary Thompson
have sold to the Washington and Falls
Church Railroad Company two acres
of land at Ballston, about half way be-
tween Washington and Falls Church.
1t is understood that the company will
erect depot at that point. All land
owners along this route who would moi
donate the land have had their LAND
appraised and condemned by order o.
court, from which appraisement no ap
peal will be taken by the owners. MIR
Harry Phillips, the manager, says the
road will be completed to Falls Church
during the present year.
The arrival of trains from Richmond yes
terday and to-day were delayed by washout
near Guinea and Whitewater. Repairs hay'
! since been made.

CHARGED WITH BURGLARY.-Samuel
Tucker, colored, arrested by Gill
Ger Ferguson. charged with being a
party to the burglary of MIR. Marion
Lees store, on the southwest corner OF
Pitt and Queen streets, was brought
before Justice Thompson this morning.
The evidence was to the effect that
Tucker and Aaron Jackson, who are
brothess-in-law, were seen with the
goods in their possession last Tuesday
night, and that most of the articles
stolen were found in Jackson's mouse.
On Thursday night another attempt
was made to rob the store and Mr.. Lee
caueht Jackson's son in the act of en-
tering a back door, a man NOW be
lieved to have been the boys father
was in the store at the time, but he
made his escape. When the officer
searched Jackson's house and found
the stolen goods, his little girl told
them that her father had brought them
home. A colored boy named Williams
at the examination Saturday testified
to seeing Tucker helping Jackson home
with the booty Tuesday night. jack
son had previously been sent on to the
grand jury and Tucker met the same
fate. Commonw Attorney Mar
bury conducted the prosecution at the
examination this morning. Some years
ago, it will be remembered, Officer Ar.
rington was murderously assaulted by
an unknown negro while i'll the di-
charge of his duty in the Third ward in
the night time. Mr.. Arlington had
chased and caught negro who had
committed some offense, but by the
time he had placed his hands on him
he vas struck with paling by an un-
known negro, felled to the ground, and
aeft for dead, Mr.. Arlington has for
many reasons believed Jackson was the
man he. had captured, and now sus-
poets Tucker was the darkey who
struck him with the paling.
