Late X. L. Boykin i'll Twenty
eighth Circuit.
REWARD FOR NELSON NEGRO
Repeated Attempts Made to Burn
Property Of Blind Man.
Capitol Notes.

Governor Swanson disposed OF
large number OF matters OF more or
less public interest yesterday, chief
among them being the appointment OF
Judge B. D. White. OF Princess Ann.
to succeed the late r. II. Boykln, OF
Isle OF Wight, as Judge OF tho Twen-
ty-eighth Judicial Circuit. Tho APP.
pointment will hold until the meeting
OF the next Legislature, In January,
1910. The circuit is probably the
smallest in the State. covering only
the counties OF Princess Anne and Isle
OF Wight and the city OF Portsmouth.
Though there We're several other cam
didates. 1t has been practically known
by those close to the Governor for the
past week that Judge White would
be chosen, as his endorsements out
weighed by far those of any OF his
competitors. He had almost the en-
tire bar OF the two counties behind
him. and many leading lawyers in
Portsmouth requested his appoint
ment.
Judge White is less than nifty years
OF age. He was formerly Judge OF
He has also been Commonwealtli's At
torney. He is regarded as a lawyer OF
exceptional ability.
Bad Negro Wanted.
A reward of 800 has been offered
by the Governor for the arrest and
| conviction Of Walker Christian. OF Nell
son county. who Is suspected of hav-
| ing made recently number of at
tempts TO burn the dwelling OF Mr..
w. 3. Megginson, OF Gladstone.
The application for the reward was
approved by Commonwealth Attorney
s. p. Whitehead. who. in his letter.
states that the county Board of super.
lvisors has offered like sum.
The letter of Mr.. Megginson to the
Governor, appealing for protection. Is
pathetic. AS he Is totally blind. the
writing was done by his wife. who
declares that the negro. Christian,
threatened some time ago 10 destroy
the property OF the Megginsons by ire.
Then follows recital of four or five
instances when attempts Were lnads
| to burn the property and of the diff
Guilty with which the flames were eH-
Itinguished. The letter Is accompanied
by an AFFIDAVIT from justice OF the
peace near Gladstone declaring that

letter are true.
