Being--Shot.
Capt. NJ NJ. Rogers came near being
shot yesterday by an angry colored.g girl,
who had just been discharged from his
employ.
The girls name is Lula Corellos, and
was employed by Mrs Rogers as chamber
maid about month ago She is describ-
ed as having an ungovernable temper. OF
late she was very dilatory about her work,
and seemed to take but little interest in
her work
Upon his return from attending the
Democratic convention at Bedford City,
Captain Rogers was informed by his wife
about the behavior of the girl, and on
Thursday morning he told her that she
must.do..better. At breakfast, while wait
ing on the table, and, doubtless, brood
ing over the matter, Lula suddenly threw
on the floor waiter and fy-brush she
was holding, and bounced out of the
room. n a
In a few minutes Captain Rogers fol-
lowed her to ask her what she meant by
such behavior, when she eXclaimed: II
am going to kill you, Captain Rogersr'
ana at the same time endeavored to get
some weapon from under her dress. Cap
tain Rogers caught her by the arm and
ordered her to pack up and leave, which
she did, but on Friday in his absence,
returned, and was very abusive to Mrs.
Rogers, until driven away.
Yesterday morning as Captain Rogers
was riding into the city, and just as he
reached the Roanoke and Southern, at
Tazewell street, the girl called to him.
He checked his horse and told her to
come to his office and he would settle
with her. Then he was about moving
away when the cries of a bystander
caused him to turn his head, and he.saw
That Lula had pistol drawn and point
ed at him. Quick as thought he urged
the horse towards her so as to prevent her
aim being steady, and in this was success
full for, rs she retreated step or two,
she fired. happily missing him
Captain Rogers then rode off for n
police officer, and while he was doing so,
the negro woman went to the courthouse.
where she saw Captain Trent, and think
ing he was the keeper of s.the Jail, told
him that she had shot at Captain Rogers
and had come to give herself up.
Captain Trent went outside and found
Officer Austin searching for the woman,
who was taken to Jail, where she will re-
main till Monday morning, when she
will be tried in the police court

A TRIBUTE
OF SCIENCE.
Synopsis of a most Remarkable
Lecture Delivered Before the
Ninth Medical Congress, by
DR.. A. l.. A. Toboldt, of the
University of Pennsylvania.

The famous fountain of health
at Carlsbad, in Bohemia, which
has been the refuge of invalids
for five centuries, is certainly
we'll worthy of a careful study.
My experience with this RENE
dialagent has been such that |
may truly say that no remedy
which l ever employed has given
me SO much pleasure and profit
as this particular one. Selecting
a number of chronic hypochon-
driacs, whose Affections have
baf1ed all my previous efforts as
my subjects, l was truly aston
ished to note that, although no
rigid diet was prescribed, and
only a limited amount of exercise
was INDUCED in, obtained most
remarkable results-the complex
ion, even after a weeks use,
began to clear up, the step be-
came more firm and elastic, and,
what was more, the entire host
of hypochondriacal complaints,
seemed to vanish like mist.
Many limitations of the genu-
inc imported Carlsbad Waters
and Carlsbad Sprudel Salt are
being sold here by druggists and
others. The genuine article is
bottled under the supervision of
the city of Carlsbad, and has the
seal of the city and the signature
of EIsNER & MENDELsoN Co., sole

worthless limitations.
