Davis and Richards. are now under 81 900
bond each awaiting their preliminary
hearing. The story as given out here to-
day is that Roy Bennett. a young man
residing near Agra, was out hunting with
companions. During the progress Of the
hunt the contents of a shotgun struck
Bennett in the arm. He was taken to
his homo and the two doctors summoned.
After making an examination is stated
that they concluded that amputation was
necessary to save the young mans life.
He at first insisted on their performing
the operation without administering an

that it would be better to have the oper-
alton performed while under the influence

could be broken off. After the operation
was completed, il was impossible to
arouse the young man. and he finally
died without recovering consciousness.
The young mans father swore out a war
rant for the arrest of the doctors.
II is stated that they claim that the
boy was almost dead when they arrived,
and consequently his death was not the
result Of amputating the arm. Witnesses
tell a different story. There has been
much discussion about the matter, and
the doctors are being severely censured
for their part in the affair.
If the charges against the physicians
are true, the case IS without precedent

A PASTORAL CALL.
COLLEGE AVENUE BAPTIST CHURCH
WANTS REV. 7. P. HOLLOWAY.

At the conclusion of the regular SER
vice of the College Avenue Baptist
Church, OF this city, held at the As
sembly Rooms last night special meet
ing was called to hear the report OF its
Pulpit Supply Committee. This COM
mittee through its chairman, Mr.. w. K.
Slaughter, recommended to the church,
a renewal Of the call rendered the Rev.
Thos. P. Holloway. of Baltimore, last
August.
The recommendation was adopted
most unanimously and a call rendered
the Rev. Thos. p. Holloway by accla-
nation.
This action of the pulpit supply com
mittee was prompted by its conviction
that Mr. Holloway is absolutely the best
man for the field. His success as a
minister and pastor has long been recog-
nized by the state and national denom-
national leaders. AT the present time
there are three churches, one OF Pitts
burg, one of distant northern city and
the Annapolis church trying to secure
him for their respective fields. Fortu.
nate will be the church that secures him.
The College Avenue Baptist Church
of this city has been indefatigable in its
efforts to secure Mr.. Holloway and are
quite confident that it will be honored
by his acceptance of the call just tend
cred. Those who have heard the Rev.
Thos p. Holloway certainly wish the
College Avenue Church the greatest sue.
cess in its efforts to secure him for An
napolis. In the event Of an acceptance
Of this call, Mr. Holloway will begin his
services here December. Ist.; until that
time the pulpit will be supplied by the
Rev. VIM. Russell Owens, of Lrozier
Theo. Seminary, who is already build
ing up quite a large audience for the
man who will take up this work perma
nently.

Franks Result Seriously.

In consequence of the many pranks
played on Saturday night by those in
dulging in Hallow zen hilarity the sta
ton house was well filed by those who
carried the thing toe far. Had all who
deserved it been arrested the jail would
not have held the culprits. Many people
passing on the streets had their clothes
ruined. One little girl who wore new
coat she had never had on before and
which cost $40, was covered with flour
and the coat said to be ruined. The fun
(?l was indulgedin by some ofthe young
men from the city and candidates for the
Naval Academy. The fun nearly reach
ed the point OF a serious disturbance and
street fight, when colored woman, who
was the object OF attack of some young
men, became angry and hurled a brick
at them. breaking large plate glass
window in "The Hub" at Market Space.
The woman was arrested by Officer
Owens and conducted to the station
house, she was later released on payment
of damages. said to have amounted to
5000. The young men who enjoyed the
sport should have been made to pay the
damages. Yesterday the streets Of the
city were in dirtier condition than they
have been for months, owing to the
pranks of Hallow Fen which luckily
comes but once a year.

Right Of Free Speech Denied.

Saturday night at Democratic meet
ing held in Kent district Mr. Robert W.
Welch, the nominee on the Democratic
ticket for the Legislature, was set upon
by a crowd of men and badly beaten
with blackjack until his friends went to
his assistance and the mob was driven
off with fence stakes and clubs.
The meeting was first called to order
at Chesapeake Junction, but owing to
the crowd of colored people. urged on
by white men, it was thought wise to
adjourn the meeting to the vicinity OF
the election precinct in Kent district.
Here again the rabble followed the
speakers, and an attempt was made to
break up the meeting by boisterous noises
and cat-calls from those in attendance.
When Mr.. Wells began his address a
rush was made toward him and he was
thrown from the platform. He was
struck a severe blos in the eye and was
pulled from under a pile of men, al
anxious to add to his injuries. He wa.
rescured by his friends in a badly bat
tered cOnditiop.
