FIRST HUSBANDS GHOST.
Came to Harass Colored Couple
in DanviIIe.

DANvILLE. VA. Nov. 3.-A colored
family in Almagro has recently been
broken up because Of the nightly appear
ance of the wifes former husband. The
fact that the man in question has been
dead year, or two. does not seem to
effect in the least his desire to look upon
the happiness of his former lelpmeet. He
invades the privacy of the woman's cham
Der. much to the annoyance Of her present
husband. He made one of his frequent
visits the other night. He was dressed
entirely in white and came and stood
at the foot of the bed
The living husband decided that the
dead man had the best right to the wo-
mans presence. and he dived through the
window carrying the sash with him. The
woman, who seems to have preferred the
living to the dead, followed his example.
The pair spent the night. tflinly clad,
under the stars
And now there will be q divorce suit,
the man refusing longer to live with
woman whose dead husband visits her in
the night.

Killed by A rIule,

The killing Of VIM. Collins, colored.
on one of J. w. Moore's farms on st.
Francis river by the kick of a vicious
mule, is an event that has caused quite
an amount of excitement in this neigh
borhood. Collins was an intimate
friend of lobe TYSON, for whom he
worked on the farm, and who was the
only person present when the accident
occurred. Owing to the existence of
bad blood between Tyson and some Of
his share troopers on the place, their
evidence before the coroner's Jury was
to the effect that Collins made an ante
norton statement 10 them that Tyson
had hit him. Tyson's reputation and
good sta. ding, coupled with the fact
that the blow had driven a portion of
the skull deep into the brain. showing
it would have been impossible for the
man to have spoken, caused the jury
to return verdict of death from I'M
known causes. 1t is lamentable fact
that the ptfjurer is ever abroad in the
LAID seeking chance to besmirch the
good name and honor of our best citi.
zens regardless OF sex or color. Such
persons should be indicted and prose.
cuted to the fullest extent of the law.
