A FIENDISH CRIME.
Or. R. Erskine Johnston, Murdered at the
Danville Hospital.

A brutal murder was committed at
the Danville Hospital for the insane
last night. The victim is DR.. r.
Erskine Johnston, one of the lnstl-
tution's physicians. He had just
entered room occupied by an Italian
named Caprio, for the purpose of
taking the mans temperature. Hardly
had he gotten inside, when he was
attacked and stabbed four times. An
attendant who was engaged near by
was attracted by the noise and hurried
to the scene just in time to see the
doctor breathe his last. He feebly
uttered: "I have no pain" and expired.
This is the second fendish crime
which the Italian Caprio has com
mitted in his life, he having beer
thought insane and placed in thai
institution quite time ago. A
peculiar part of the tragedy is tha
the weapon has not been found.

LAYTON RUNYON.

The death of Mr.. Layton Runyon
occurred at his home on Market
street on Saturday morning last at
eleven o'clock. His health had been
feeble for some years past, and he
had been confined to his bed for
several weeks. His age was eighty
eight years, five months and ten days.
MIR. Runyon was born near Plain
field, New Jersey, on October 2oth,
1912. In his early boyhood he went
with his fathers family to Steuben
County, New York, where he learned
the cabinet making trade. About the
year 1884 he went to Illinois, then an
unsettled country, and made trips
down the Mississippi River, by boats
and RATS, to New Orleans. Later on
he went to Tyrone, New York, and
while living there, on January 40
1889, he married Henrietta +.
daughter of Col. E. Thayer, of Wat
kins, New York, and sister of Mrs.
Judge Elwell. Shortly afterwards he
moved to Troy, Pa, and engaged in
the mercantile trade, which he fol-
lowed for some years. Subsequently
he engaged extensively in farming at
Troy, and followed this until ne
moved to Bloomsburg about 1864,
where he opened the first grocery and
provision store exclusively, In the
town
In 1866 he sold out, and went to
Titusville, Pa, to live, and there his
wife died. Returning to Bloomsbury
he opened a hardware store, and
subsequently married Miss Martha
Brugler, and resided here the balance
of his life. The last ten years or so
he has led a retired life, having sold
the hardware store to his son by
adoption, Charles w. Runyon. The
deceased had been member of the
Presbyterian Church for many years,
and for long time was one of the
officers. He was man of strong
convictions, determined will, and a
warm heart. He was respected for
his integrity, and for his frankness in
saying just what he thought of any
thing which did not meet with his
approval.
The surviving members of the fam
lily are his wife, his daughter, Mrs. R.
Frank Colley, and his adopted SOD,
Charles w. Runyon.
The funeral was held at the house
on Tuesday afternoon, the service:
being conducted by Rev. DR.. Hem
ingway. Several appropriate selection:
were well sung by the Y. M. c. A
male choir. The remains of one o
Bloomsburg's oldest residents were
then laid to rest in Rosemont Gem
etery.
