PLEDGES DONATION
TO CATAWBA FUND
IL. {. HECHLER SAYS PEOPLE DO
NOT REALIZE GOOD DONE BY
NAToRItM

Richmond Va. sept j. 1911.
To the Editor of The Hichmond
Sirgfnian..
str s--tn IA recent Issue of your
paper. I read with a great deal of
regret that the 1atawbH snna-
torium on account of lack of
fund. WAS compelled to limit the
stay OF its patient. to six months.
l do not believe that the majority
of orr people fully realize what a
good work has been accomplished by
this Institution; and IL seems 10
me that with 80 mmas liberal u,ind-
cd cttasens this grand old Common
wealth would not be living mp to
tfs time honored name should IL
allow this condition to exist. A
canse under my personal OBJ

make room for others.
The rule at the sanatorium is tina
a patient can only remain six month
in the institution. This rule vas mad
necessary on account of the Unite
amount of room and in order that a
many afflicted persons as possibl
should be treated.
1t is now clearly apparent that pa
TENTS who are nearly well are force

and srave fears are expressed that IN

months treatment will be lost, whe
IL the patient could have Rename
a few weeks or perhaps months long
err, complete cure would have bee
effected.
The Catawba Relief Association ha
been formed and an effort is. bein
made to raise $1,000 which win Il

Double Killing AT Grab Orchard.

In battle in a soft drink stand in
Crab Orchard on last Saturday night
deputy marshal Lige Hoskins killed
Walter Wallin and was himself killed
by Jake Wallin brother of the man
he killed. According to the best infor-
nation obtainable, Walter Wallin had
previously had trouble with John Rid
die the proprietor of the drink stand in
which the trouble occurred. On the
day of the killing mutual friends fear
ing trouble prevailed upon Riddle to go
to his home and stay there. 1t is said
that Walter Wallin and several friends
and relatives were in Riddles place
drinking when Hoskins came in and one
of them told him to take his hands out
of his pocket; it is claimed that Hos
kins in his dying statement stated that
upon his failure to withdraw his hand
from his pocket that Walter Wallin
shot him in the leg, he then fired strik-
ing Wallin- in the heart and killing him
Hoskins retreated, backing
toward the door, firing as he went, two
shots taking effect, one on bud Wallin,
the other striking Ben Howard, infiict-
ing flesh wounds When Hoskins reach
ed the street Jake Wallin is said to
have come from the opposite side of
the street and fired at him, four shots
took effect in the officers body which
resulted in his death. Sheriff Mccarthy
went up from Stanford and arrested
Jake Wallin. Parties from the vicinity
of Grab Orchard who were in Lancas-
ter Tuesday stated that there was con-
siderable feeling aroused on both sides
over the affair and that further trouble
was feared.

Opera House Injured.

During the farewell performance of
eta" at the opera house last Saturday
night, someone threw a large cannon
cracker or bomb on top of the opera
house, it exploded tearing hole in the
roof and scattering splinters and debris
over the audience directly beneath it.
to their imminent peril.
Whether this was the act of a
thoughtless boy bent on having some
fun, or of some miscreant with an in
herent love for injuring property and
life, and we are inclined to the former
belief, but we are unable to say, but it
was equally reprehensible in either case
If manager Romans is able to locate
the pepetrator of the act, if it be boy
as mentioned above, he will never care
for fun of like nature again, and if it
be someone bent on injuring property.
he will be prosecuted to the full extent
of the law.

Miss Carrie May thompson Injured.

The following article taken from the
Courier Journal of Monday refers to
Miss Carrie May Thompson, who is the
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. R. E. Thomp
son of this county. Miss Thompson IS
staying with her aunt Mrs. Booth
Thompson in Louisville and is attending
a college for the blind. We are glad to
report that the young ladies injury is
not of a serious nature
Struck on the head by bullet from
an unknown source. Miss Carry May
Thompson, aged 10, who is blind, re-
ceived slight scalp wound yesterday
afternoon at o'clock as she was alight
ing from a northbound Fourth-street
car at Fourth and Market streets. The
young woman was assisted to a drug
store, where a physician dressed the
wound and declared it had been inflicted
by bullet. The police were summon
ed and made an Investigation, but were
unable to find anyone who heard a
pistol shot, and they are mystifed over
its origin.
1t is believed that some irresponsible
person on the crowded street, thinking
he was firing blank shell, shot his re-
volver. Miss Thompson is a pupil in
the Kentucky Institute for the Educa-
ton of the Blind, and had been attend
ing the theater Yesterday afternoon
with her aunt Mrs. Booth Thompson,
who lives in the st. Charles apartments
The two women were alighting from a
car when Miss Thompson was heard to
cry out in pain. Turning to her niece,
Mrs. Thompson saw the blood coursing
down her cheek. Mrs. Thompson assist
ed the young woman to drug store,
where the physician was summoned.

that he was so unfortunate one day
last week as to slip on a sidewalk in St
Louis and sustain a painful fracture of
his hip, which will confine him to hos
pital, possibly for several months.
Wade Bush is the younger son of the
late DIR. w. N. Bush, for many years
one of Lancaster's leading practicion-
ers. Wade is one of our Lancaster
boys who has made marked success in
the business world away from home. He
embarked in the real estate business in
St Louis several years ago and his bust
ness has grown to such an extent that
he is. now one of the leading real estate
agents of that thriving western city.

Walker Farm Not Sold.

The farm of the late t. B. Walker,
which was advertised to be sold public
ly on last Monday, was taken down, the
highest bid being $91. per acre, and

that private sale of it will be effect
