R c H M o n D. VA-Special.-
Admitting that he had chastised his
sixteen-year-old daughter with a whip
cemposed OF three leather thongs
tackled to a stick larger than a man's
thumb, j. w. Wiginton, of 5000 North
rhirtieth Street, appeared before Jus-
tice Crutchfield this morning to an
swer charge OF cruelty that had
been made against him.
Ihe case was in court several days
ago, and was continued TO this MORN
ing TO give time for the summoninR
or witnesses. This morning, after a
number of witnesses had testified. a
second postDonement was necessary

called from court. Justice Crutchfield
set the case for next Friday. when
all of the evidence will be heard by
Justice Griggs.
Mr.. and Mrs. Luther Eudailey were
| the principal witnesses examined this
morning. They declared that on Sep
tember 10th they saw Wigington drag
his daughter into the porch and lash
her severely with the whip. Blood
trickled down the girls arms. they
said, from the cuts made by the
thongs.
The girl fed from home and sought
protection at the home of her aunt.

Philpots was arraigned before the
tribunal sometime ago for non-sup-
port or his children. and was ordered
oy the court to pay stipulated
amount to his wife every week. The
payments were prompt until several
weeks ago. Failing to receive the re-
quired sums, Mrs. Phillpots had her
husband brought into court to explain
the matter.
The defendant said that he was a
painter, and that work had been
rather slack" lately, and that he had
been without employment. The wife
said that he had not been home since
saturday night. When asked where
he had spent his time Phillpots said
that he had gone to a friends house

And now the Times-Dispatch. of
Kichmond. has actually gone back on
the primary election, and intimates
that 1t would be well for the party
to return to the convention plan. And
1t asks the Index-Appeal why this
would be a step backward.
II the Times-Dispatch desires an
answer to its question. let IL turn to
the files Of the Richmond Times and
the Times-Dispatch itself and read
the arguments OF Joseph Bryan and
W. l. Royal against the old-time
convention and in favor Of the latter
day primary. No newspaper in the
state labored more zealously than our
contemporary to abolish the conven-
ton and adopt the primary. And its
arguments and labors had much to
do, no doubt. with bringing about the
change. Now IL would surrender all
for which II contended.s
Possibly our contemporary Is a lit
tie sore because Of the manner In
which the late primary treated the
candidates whom it denounced as be-
ing unworthy OF the support Of Vir-
Sinia emocrats.-Times-H
