HARRIS FOUND GUILTY
ThOmpsOn's Slayer Given Four
Years For Manslaughter.
MOTION FOR APPEAL GRANTED

Four wears in the State penitentiary
for Prof. j. d. Harris for killing W.
A. Thompson, of Warrenton, was the
sentence imposed by the jury, who
found him guilty Of manslaughter.
His attorney, Speaker Byrd, moved
to set aside the motion as contrary TO
law and evidence. Judge Turner over
ruled this motion, and Mr.. Byrd then
gave notice that an appeal would be
taken.
This motion was argued before Judge
Turner ard allowed. The original bond
Of $50, 900 with the original bondsmen,
with one addition, was renewed. return
able at the Dec. term of court. Prof.
Harris left for Norfolk, accompanied by
members of his family. His counsel
are confident of his acquital.
Harris shot Thompson on the evening
of April "a. The tragedy was the re-
suit of series Of difficulties between
Harris and Thompson. The latter was
half owner Of the Warrenton Virginian,
while Harris was a school teacher and
a candidate for superintendent OF Eau
quier schools. Thompson opposed his
election. In addition, Thompson and
Harris opposed each other in other
matters.
The immediate cause of the shooting
was an attack on Harris by Thompson.
Thompson did not die Immediately,
a special train being made up and he
was taken to Washington. At Provi-
dence Hospital an operation was per
formed, but several shots had per
forated Thompson's intestines, and he
died without recovering consciousness.

Geo. W. SHEPHERD
This Valued Citizen Passes Away
Monday Morning.
MS LONG AND SUCCESSFUL CAREER

The months NEUROLOGY commenced
with the announcement that Mr.. Geo.
w. Shepherd died Monday morning at
his residence in this city in the eightieth
year Of his age. =,
Mr.. Shepherd was born on the 22nd
day Of February in the year OF 1881,
being the youngest and sole survivor al
the date of his death Of eight brothers,
the sons of the late John Madison Shep-
herd and Judith Benson, his wife.
Nature gave him fine presence,
genial disposition and sterling common
sense and judgment, which qualitles
predominated his entire life.
Early in youth Mr.. Shepherd com
menced a life of self reliance, carving
his own way without assistance to
position of confidence and esteemin this
community possessed by few men IN his
generation. e,
Responding to the call of his country,
he served faithfully as soldier IN the
Confederate army during the Civil war,
and returned to Fredericksburg at Its
end TO find the material accumuiations
of his Young manhood gone; but, with
the qualities above referred to and
manly resolution, success and fortune
soon crowned his new career, ana IN
1877 he retired from the mercantile bus
mess TO reside in the handsome home
stead where he died. But normal re-
tirement was not retirement for him;
the confidence of his fellow-citizens in
the character and capacity OF the man
would not permit il, and to the date OF
his recent illness there was no great
public business interest in which he was
not counselled, or private mercantile
difficulty within the limits OF Freder-
icksburg where his fine administrative
and executive ability was not called Tor
and successfully and cheerfully render
ed.
Mr.. Shepherd married in 1863 Miss
Sallie B. Smith, of Washington, at the
date of his marriage residing in Vir-
pinia. who survives him, as also does
his five children. Misses Margaret b.
Shepherd, Judith B. Shepherd, Geo. w.
Shepherd, Jr., Thomas Smith Shep-
herd and Mrs. Mary Shepherd Stern.
II success in life is measured by that
grand verse from Micah: And what
doth the Lord require of thee, but 10
do Justly, to love mercy and TO walk
humbly before thy God, then the life
of George w. Shepherd has been a
successful life and a richer heritage to
be emulated by his children than all the
diamonds of Golconda.
"Strong to the last, a man Of men,
Out of the strife he passed. "
The funeral will take place Wednes-
day morning at II O'Clock from Trinity
Episcopal church.

CATHOLIC MISSION
win Continue All of This Week.

The first part of the mission AT 81.
Marv's Catholic church came TO a
close ON Sunday. The sermons, devo-
lions and instructions during the past
week have been addressed directly TO
the Catholics with view to their moral
and religious advancement.
The second week of the mission will
proceed along other lines. 1t will be
educational rather than devotional, con-
sisting Of series of lectures rather
than sermons. These lectures will
treat of questions which are frequently
misunderstood by non-Catholics. A
thorough and plain explanation will be
given Of such matters as the infallibihty
of the Pope, confession of sin TO the
priest, prayers for the dead and the
veneration of the Blessed Virgin and
the saints.
Some people have very erroneous no
tons of what Catholics believe, said
one of the mission fathers. Catholics
do not like to live under a cloud OF mis-
representation; they wish to be under
stood. Old fashioned prejudice, the
child of ignorance and calumny, lspass-
ing away. Our aim, said the father, is
to hasten its departure by letting the
people know the whole truth about the
Catholic church. We want fair hear
ing. We explain the Catholic position
and let our hearers draw their own con-
illusions. We invite to these lectures
particularly those persons who are not
Catholics and who by association and
education have been led to feel bitterly
and to think harshly of the Catholic re-
ligion. We invite them in particular,
because they owe it to themselves and
TO their Catholic fellow citizens to hear
both sides of the case before forming
an unfavorable decision against so
many millions of sincere Catholics.
Members of the Catholic church, con-
tinued the speaker, constitute almost
half of the church going people in the
United States, fact which will great
" surprise many who have not seen the
census of religion recently issued by
the government.
Sunday morning early mass was
at 7:3O and high mass at 1890. Every
night during the week the services will
begin nrofnntlv at O'Clock.

RAND0LPH-MAC0N CUT OFF
Not to Participate in Carnegie Fund,
Trustees Announce.

At a meeting Of the executive com
mittee of the trustees Of the Randolph
Macon system of colleges, held in Rich
mond, the Randolph Macon system was
barred from participation in the Car
negie foundation fund for the pension
ing of school teachers.
Following the war among the trustees
regarding the question whether or not
the woman's college at Lynchburg, a
Randolph-Macon institution, was owned
by the Methodist church, the Carnegie
foundation trustees have adjudged that
it is so owned. and have so informed the
Randolp- Macon trustees. The barring
of the Lynchburg school from partici-
patton in the fund will effect all the
other schools in the Randolph-Macon
system. ,
One Of the provisions Of the Car
negie fund, and practically the only
one. is that it shall not apply to
schools owned by states or churches.
