one Coiored i.aborer Killed; Two Others
Seriously Injured.


Mr. l. A. Bradley. the contractor who
constructed the electric road OF the Rich
rnoud Traction Company. owns a gravel
ptt at Newtown. 9ust beyond Harts-
horne Callege, which he works with
some cOlored hands. Yesterday atter-
no,n. while some OF the men were digging
gravel steep embankment suddenly
g,va away and buried three men, one OF
whom was covered up about two teet
deon. while the other two had their heads
sticking out and were easily liberated.
When tho accident occurred the ampu-
lance was at once called, and II appeared
on tie scene at f.D o'clock, with Dr.
Lynn In charge.
By that time the three men had been
taken from their imprisonment. one or
them. Joseph Spencer resident OF Man
a ester. who had been completely covered
over. had just died
Robert HarderOve. another one or the
colored men. was found to be seriously
Injured on the hip and possibly suffered
a fracture of the same. He was attended
and taken 20 his home. at 5ls west Leigh
street.
The third labOrer. Edward FERGUSON.
received injuries on the left arm and
chest. lie was taken 10 the city Hospital
where Or. Lynn was compelled to put
twenty stitches in his arm.
Squire Lewis. the acting coroner OF
Henrico county, was notified or the death
OF Spencer.
II seems that IN digging for the gravel
the men had undermined the steep en-
bankment which suddenly fell IN on
them. and the fact that Spencer was
connletelv covered up made his location
diflcult. and fully ten minutes elapsed
hefore he could be found.

The Scno APE.

Letters from the African traveller,
Oscar Neumann, at Bul1oba, says the
London News, contains many interest
ing things that Neumann learnt from
the Manyemas. One is that the Solso
ape is very common and much feared
in Manyamaland, between Nyangwe
and the northern shore of the Tang
anyika. Some time ago an Arab
wanted to take Soko which he had
captured to the coast. He succeeded
in reaching Ugogo with his prize.
There he died, and his sons, who
attributed the death of their father
to the entertainments of the wicked
wood demon, fastened to retransport
the supposed origin OF their misfortune
to its native place, and the interesting
specimen was thus lost to science.
