Grand Jury Adjourns.

The grand jury adjourned last week
after having found 81 Indictments, ten
of which were for felonies, the remain
der for misdemeanors. Included in the
number were two for murder, one
against Allen Jones for the killing of
Harrison Preston below Bryantsville
about two months since, Jones was a
negro and made his escape ON Sunday
excursion and has never been captured;
the other against Les Burton for the
killing of a negro named Hutchinson at
White Oak on Thanksgiving night, Bur-
tons trial has been set for to-day, FRI
day.
The present grand jury was one of
the best that-has sat in the county in
some time, Foreman Chas. Poindexter
kept them busy at work, and a great
deal of the cussedness that has been
going on in the county was investigat-
ed and some good results will follow,
The names of several witnesses who
failed to heed the summons of the body
were handed to Judge Hard n, and he CT
dered that orders of arrest be sued
for them to the next term of court.
This will teach them that it is better to
come when they are summoned, rather
than to be placed under bond for their
future appearance.

after the oath was administered. they

SUDDEN SUMMONS
Called From Life An Estimable Woman.

No recent death has caused such a
shock to our community as did the
death of Mrs. ]. Speed Smith, Friday
last. Her death came suddenly and
without warning, it occurring at the
home of her daughter, Mrs. George
Phelps, near Foxtown. Complaining of
not feeling well, Mrs. Smith, who was
alone, asked the sergeant to telephone
for DR.. Rutledge, of the neighborhood.
On arriving, the doctor found Mrs.
Smith in a serious condition, death
coming before he could render any
medical aid. No woman of our city
was better known. She was the widow
of j. Speed Smith, who passed away
several years ago, and who, during his
life was one of the most prominent
men in Richmond. He was a Mason
of high standing in the State. Deceas
ed was about 60 years of age, and
lifelong and devoted member of the
Baptist church. She was beloved by a
wide circle of friends who mourn her
loss. She iszsurvived by the following
children; Mesdames George Phelps, of
this county; and David Tevis, of Seattle
Wash; Misses Margaretta and Mary
Barrett Smith, of this city, and j..
Speed Smith, of Seattle, Wash. She
leaves two brothers: William Barrett,
Of Owensbor o, and Mason Barrett, of
Louisville, and one sister, Mrs. Lizzie
Miner, of Highland, Kas. The late
Hon. John Barrett, of Louisville, was
a brother. She was daughter of Will
liam F. Barrett, deceased, and agrand-
daughter on her mothers side of Judge
William Goodloe The funeral services
were conducted Sunday morning at 10
O. clock at the residence of George
Phelps, by Rev. C. C. Marshall, of the
Baptist church, after which her re-
mains were brought to Richmond ceme-
terry and laid to rest beneath a mound
of flowers, token of the love and es-
TEEN in which she was held by all

Dealing Out Justice.

In the circuit court last week color
ed man named Blythe plead guilty to
breaking into the L. & N. depot at
Paint Lick and was given the indeter-
inmate penalty of from two to five
years for his offense.
Lee Allen, another colored man,
charged with assault and battery upon
his wife, was fined 500. and is now as
slstlng on the county roads. Great
pity there is not more severe punish,
ment that might be dealt out to such
criminals. for of all the despicabIe
crimes that of wife beating is. one of
the worst, and the worst punishment
which can be inflicted seem hardly
sufficient:
Jim Brooks, colored, charged with
assault and battery was also assessed
to the tune of 500. and is helping
Allen on county work.
