MURDERED?

1t Is Said That The Negro Who Xii
Him is in Custody.
A special to the Richmond Dspatc
from Charlottesville says:
"Rumors reach here from Crozet and
Mediums river, between which place
Walter B. Lafierty, son Of DIR, J. j.
Lafferty, OF the Richmond Christian
Advocate, that it is now admitted that
Lafferty was murdered, and not killed
by passing train, as was at first sup
posed. On the 9th of this month young
Laferty was found in dying condition
en- the railroad, and his death followed
at 2 o'clock that afternoon. 1t is now
sai that from that time until now quiet
bat energetic efforts have been made
to discover and arres a negro who was
at Mechu.a's river Saturday night,
spoke with Laferty there, and then
disappeared from his usual haunts. 1t
is said, too, that the man has been ar
rested in West Virginia, and that he
had on him the watch and some other
articles known to have been on the per-
sor of lafferty at the time he was kill
ed. Tie rumors cannot be confirmed.
hey are important, if true, but it seems
little strange that nothing hes been
said about the robbery of Lafferty, if it
had really occurred"
The friends and + latives OF DR..
Lafferty who reside in this city, were
asked by a Dispatch man concerning
the presumption that he was murdered,
but none of them hid been apprised of
the suspicious entertained.

DRYING PREPARATIONS

simply develop dry catarrb; they dry
up the secretions which adhere to the
membrane and decompose, causing a
far more serious trouble than the ordi-
nary form of catarrh. Avoid all dry
ing inhalants and use that which cleans
es, soothes and heals. Ely's Cream
Balm is such remedy and will cure
catarrh or cold in the head easily and
pleasantly. A trial size will be mailed
for 10 cents, large for so cents. All
druggists keep it. Ely Brothers, Sc
Warren Street, New York.
