EFFORT TO CLEAR. NAME
Estes Himself Went to the Ply
stefan and Explained the
Girls MaIady.

LYNCHBURG, Va, April 25.-Nelson
| county is thoroughly aroused over the
| killing of Theodore Estes by ex-Judge w.
G. Loving, and there is a growing senti-
| ment in favor of thorough investigation
of the whole affair. The statement that
young Estes had drugged and assaulted
Miss Elizabeth Loving, daughter Of the ex-
judge, is not generally believed.
Judge Loving charges Estes with drug
ging his daughter, who is nineteen years
old, and criminally assaulting her while
she was In that condition. After he learned
of the alleged assault from the lips of his
daughter Judge Loving drove some eight
or ten miles before he located the young
man. He shot Estes down with double
barreled shotgun without waiting for Estes
to give an explanation
Took Her for Drive
Miss Elizabeth Loving was visiting Miss
Annie Kidd daughter of E. l.. Kidd, the
county clerk. at his home, in Lovingston.
Young Estes first went driving with Miss
Kidd. Bringing Miss Kidd back he took
her guest. Miss Loving, for a spin along
the country roads late Sunday afternoon
1t was $50 O'Clock In the evening before
the couple returned, and Miss Lovng's
condition was such that she had to be as
sisted from the buggy. She could not give
an accurate account of what had occurred
and she seemed to be suffering intensely
The household did not understand what
was the matter, and remedies were applied
to bring her back to rational state. Dr.
Strother was called in, and then for the
first time the alleged true nervousness of
Miss LovingS situation was made known
Story Told by the Girl.
Harry Snead, who recently sold his farm
Bellevue, to Thomas F. Ryan of Oak Ridge
and is assistant manager of the Oak Ridge
estate, spent Sunday night in Lovingston
He Is related to the Lovings and to the
Esteses. Monday morning he carried the
news of Miss Lovings illness to the Loving
home, on the Oak Ridge estate, four miles
also four miles from Lovingston. Mrs
Loving sent some one for her daughter
who replied that she was too Ill to go home
unless her mother attended her. Mrs Low
ing then went to Lovingston for her
daughter. Before they reached home the
girl told her mother the story of what
took place during the drive the evening be-
fore. After the arrival at Oak Ridge she
told her father, Judge Loving, the whole
pitifu story.
Two negroes witnessed the shooting. One

GREETED BY THE PRESIDENT
NEW SWEDISH MINISTER RE
CEIvED AT THE WHITE HOUSE.
Unusual Interest Attached to the
Coming of the Latest Addition
to the Diplomatic Corps.

Mr. Hermann LagercrantZ the new Swedish
minister was formally presented to the
President yesterday afternoon. The cere-
mony took place in the blue room at the
White House. The President in welcoming
the minister departed from the usual form,
and, after giving the minister "a hearty
greeting, took occasion to express his high
sense of appreciation of the character Oh
the Swedish people eXemplifed in the
present immigration from Sweden reach
ing the United States He also paid a trib
ute to the personal qualities of King Oscar.
First Swedish Minister.
Mr. Lagercrantz is a native of Sweden.
and is the first minister to represent that
country since the dissolution of the politi-
cal union between Sweden and Norway.
Mr. Grip, his predecessor, represented the
twin governments for nearly ten years,
and, although he was a native of Norway.
he swore allegiance to King Oscar, and for
q year continued to represent his king as
envoy and plenipotentiary here
1t was understood, however that politi-
cal forces in Stockholm opposed the con-
tinuation of a Norwegian as Swedish min
lister here, and this led to Mr.. Grips with
drawal. Upon the departure of Mr.. Grip
A. Ekengren was sent to Washington as
secretary of legation and charge de affaires
Unusual interest attaches to the present
diplomatic representative of Sweden, for in
addition to the fact that he is known to be
in closest sympathy with the new govern
ment and to his having won renown
throughout Scandinavia as diplomat and
statesman, he has held the office of com
mander Of the Salvation Army of Sweden.
Interested in Industrial Methods
Soon after his arrival here Mr.. Lager
crantZ told the newspaper men who sought
him out that this is his first large job in
diplomatic way, and he hoped to be able to
do things that would be beneficial mutual
ly to Sweden and the United States. He
would make a study of industrial cond-
lions in the United States, he said, as he
was DESTROYS of having the methods of the
workingmen of Sweden put on the same
progressive plane as that of the working
men of this country, who appeared to have
Systematzed the forces of production. The
people of Sweden especially the royal fam
lily, he said, were much interested in Presi-
dent Roosevelt, and had high regard for
him. Mr.. Lagercrantz will accompany the
official party to the jamestown exposition
on the Newport News.

BITTER FEELING
AGAINST LOVING
Nelson County Aroused Because it is
Said the Judge Fired With

To Clear Estes Name.
At Lovingston it is said that the Estes
family would be heard from at the trial of
Loving, and that tremendous effort would
| be made to clear the dead mans name of
the imputation which now befouls it. The
Estes people and those in sympathy with
them deny that there was an assault, and
point to young Estes behavior after his re-
turn from the drive as inconsistent with
any other view. He himself volunteered to
go Tor Dr. Strother, and on seeing him in
FORMED the latter in a confidential way that
her a1lment was not serious one.
mere is undoubtedly striking analogy
between the Loving-Estes and the Strother-
Bywaters homicides. In both cases. which
grew out of charges almost similar, the ac-
ton was sharp and quick and the physical
mutilation of the victims frightful In
Nelson county two discharges Of buckshot
snuned out the life of Estes; in Cupeper
ieaden hail from the muzzles of three re-
volvers sent Bywaters to death.
The Estes family, like that of young By
waters, is forever without the advantage
That Judge Loving regarded the taking
of life in defense of a woman's honor as
absolutely justified appeared from a con-
versation recently during which he ap-
proved of Thaw's act, although at the same
time he expressed the belief that people
should be rather slow to shoot
Dragging Story Doubted
Sentiment yesterday was somewhat moro
settled Tuesday the story Of the drug
slng was accepted without question but
Yesterday it was not generally believed
Ihere are many who hold that the only
drug used was whisky. Criticism has been
MADE or the smallness of the bail bond
winch, II is thought, was due to the fact
that the Estes family was not represented
by an attorney at the time bail was re-
quested. Judge Loving would have been
able to have given a very much larger
bond, and it was probably not out of any
consideration for him that the bond was
small
j. M. Shipman's Account.
A statement made yesterday by J. NJ
Shipman, a well known resident of Nelson
county, regarding the shooting differs from
previous accounts. He states that Miss
Elizabeth Loving spent Sunday afternoon
at the home of E. L. Kidd, clerk of Nelson
county, as the guest of his daughter, and
that Estes, at the request of Miss Kidd.
took Miss Loving out driving, returning to
Lovingston before dark
Miss Loving had been sick and was given
drink of whisky. Upon her return from
the drive physician was sent for Miss
Loving spent the night at Mr. Kids and
next morning Estes proposed to take her
home. but she preferred to wait, and her
mother took her home at IL clock.
Mr.. Shipman claims that Judge Loving
admitted that at the car he had demanded
an explanation from Estes. but did not
wait for reply, and that he shot before
Estes could answer

Decidedly the best fertilizer that can be
used Is we'll rotted stable manure In most
cases where commercial fertilizers are used
some manure should be used with It, 1t
Is important in fertilizing soil to improve
its physical condition, as well as it's chem
ical composition. 1t should be made loose
so that the roots of plants may readily
absorb the food 1t contains. For this pur-
pose manures are unexcelled.
The physical properties of soil have a
large influence on its fertility. The most
common means of loss of fertility is through
teaching. or the mechanical washing away
of nourishng properties. Soils which has n
large proportion of clay are finely grained
and compact, thus making 1t easy for the
plant food they contain to be washed away.
At the same time the compactness fire.
quently retains the elements of fertility
tenaciously against their by plants.
If a commercial fertilizer is used 1t
should be mixture that gives a complete
fertilizer, supplying all the elements needed
to make rich soil. The commercial fertilizer
is preferred to manure for use on lawns,
because of its greater cleanliness and the
fact that 1t contains weeds. Manure is
frequently full of the seeds of weeds. An
excellent fertilizer for use on lawns is a
mixture of hardwood ashes and bone meal.
This has been declared to contain all the
elements needed for the successful growth
Of grass.
