The LoUDouN BARN FIRES The
Luudoun Telephone in speaking CT he
burning last Saturday L ght OF the
barn of Mr.. Throckmortop, near
Snickersville, says: "As in the case of
the Lodge fire, there is evidence that a
solitary horseman was about the prem
ises that night; and it appears that on
both occasions the horse was jumper,
for his tracks were seen where he Leaf
ed fences. The man evidently left Mr..
Throck morton's quite hastily, for 1t is
said that he cut strap or rope with
which he apparently had tied his horse
and left part of it tied to the fence.
That piece of tether may be used IL
making chain of circums antiel evil
dence. The tracks of the horse were
followed some distance and were then
lost in piece of woodland. The qnes :
ton in the public mind now is, y no Is
this mysterious horseman II one
man is doing all this dreadful work, he
must be some one who is more crsz=d
than vicious. One person would not
be apt to seek revenge in this manner
against so many people, and in suah
quick succession. If this terrible work
is the result of sd epidemic of crime,
surely there is remarkable method il
the madness Of the criminals.

B. K. BRUCE'S DEATH
Register Of the Treasury Dies
at Washington.
WAS MOST PROMINENT COLORED MAN
Born In Slavery, He Rises From Hum
BILE Position and Succeeds In Obtain
ing the Friendship and Re
spect OF Statesmen.

WASHINGTON, March 1s.-Blanche
&. Bruce, register Of the treasury. died
here yesterday. Mr.. Bruce's death had
reen expected for several days. He suf-
ered from a complication Of stomach
troubles which at first appeared not Sc
rious. but last week he lost strength
steadily, and toward the close of the
week it became apparent that his vi
tality was ebbing rapidly.
Mr. Bruce was born in Prince Ed
ward county, Va, March l, lS41, the
son Of parents who were slaves, and
therefore a slave himself. War and the
death Of his old master emancipated
young Bruce, but not before he had
picked up some learning and great
desire for more from the tutor Of his
masters favorite son.
The end of the war found him teach
ing school in Hannibal Mo-, and short
ly after he moved to Oberlin and en-
tered college there. He had to labor
long before daybreak to earn enough to
support himself and finally had to give
up the struggle with his education un-
completed.
Bruce wandered south and was next
heard of in Mississippi. He was ap-
pointed sergeant at arms of the SEN
ate when the legislature was organic
ed. He held various state offices and
in 1874 was elected a United States sem
ator He was the only colored man to
serve out a full term in the United
States senate. While in the senate he
presided on one occasion at the call OF
Mr. Hoar and thus for the space of
half an hour was vice president of the
| United States
President Garfield appointed Mr..
Bruce register Of the treasury in 1881,
and he creditably performed the duties
] of the office through the administra-
/ tions Of Garfield and Arthur, giving
way to ]. F. Tillman, whom Mr.. Cleve-
land appointed. Curiously enough, Mr..
| Bruce succeeded Mr.. Tillman when Mr.
Mckinley became president.
Mr.. Bruce, after the death OF Fred
Douglass, became the most influential
man of the colored race in the United
States. He was known and beloved by
his race the country over, and he die
much for the betterment Of their condi.
