A BRUTAL MURDER.
Louis Chick Shot Down-Tbe Murdere
Shielded.

NEWPORT NRws, December -(Spe-
ciai )-Shortly after 8 o'clock this morn
ing, Mr.. ]. h. Bocock, an employee of
the merchants and Miners Transpor-
tation Company, shot a colOred man
named Louis Chick, and the latter is
now lowering between life and death.
Bocock went to Chief-of- Police Har-
wood and surrendered himself, and
with John Chick, q brother of the
" ounded colored man is now confined
in the city Jail.
The affair happened on Chesapeake
and Ohio Pier 5. 1t seems that r. @ .
Harwood, boss OF the freight assorters,
ordered Louis Chick to place a large
box at certain point, and he threw it
down in another place. Words follow
ed, resulting in the 'lie" from the col
ored man. and the two came to blows.
WORDS BETWEEN THKM,
Bocock, who had reported in the
morning to go on duty as watchman,
and who was later put on the freight
work, said something to the colored
man, and the latter retaliated 1t is
said that Boeock used a profane word
and the colored man called him q very
hard name and threatened him. With
that, Bocock is said to have struck
Chick, who reached back, drew q knife
and started to open it, when Bocock
drew his revolver and shot Chick just
below the left nipple. The Boston shiT
was diseharging at the time, and there
were nearly 200 colored men on the
pier About fifty of these, headed by
John Chick, with a revolver, started
after Bocock. and chased him into the
yard enclosure. Bocock passed
through the gateway, and the watch
man Immediately closed the gate anC
shut the crowd out of the yard

ANNUAL CELEBRATION.
To All Councils of the I. o. of st. Luke
Greeting:

To All Councils Ofthe I. o. of st. Luke,
Greeting;
Good Prospect Council, No. 151
proposes TO celebrate its third anniver-
sary by having a sermon touching the
aims and benefits of the Order preach
ed TO it by the kev. H. ID Lewis, pastor
of the Second Baptist Church, on Sun
day, December 9th, 1895, at the Ebe-
nezer Baptist Church.
Believing that as large an assemblage
OF st. Lukes as can be induced to turn
out can but have the effect of impress
ing upon the public mind the high re-
gard in which the Order is held by its
members, and also of probably making
accessions to its ranks, it extends to
all st. Lukes a cordial invitation to be
present on the occasion above indicat-
ed.

KimUrOugh's Death.

Samuel Kimbrough, colored 'disap-
peared about three weeks ago. About
eleven days thereafter, two colored
men while out hunting in the neighbor-
hood OF the new Pump-house found his
body cold and stiff in death.
There were bruises on the head. but
the coroner subsequently decided that
they were not sufficient to have pro-
duced death.
An examination of the body, both in
side and out, failed to disclose the
cause of death and no poison was found
in the intestines.
The county officials believe that
there was foul play in his case. but
nothing in the way of evidence has
been secured to prove it.
Kimbrough was very drunk when last
seen alive, but had not sufficient mon
ey on his person, it is said to have in
duced robbery. The coroner's Jury de-
cided he died from natural causes.

are not sufficient and that there can be
no such thing as an unbenefitted men,
ber in the Glass Department..

are, decided that it was useless to ar

dict against them for tie face value OF
the policy.
No one knows the extent of this vic
tory, not only will it force the True
Reformers to change their policies and
mode of notifying their delinquent
members, but will cause them to pay
out much money; for Goldsberry and
