NEWS OF THE OLD DOMINION.
KILLS MAN AND WOUNDS CHILD.
Assailant Attemps to Shoot The Vic
TINS Brother

Cape Charles, Va, Sept. 4.-In a
fight near Bayview, Monday night, Gus
Talley, so years old, shot and killed
Rambo Marshall, 35 years old. After
killing Marshall Talley started in
search of a brother of his victim, and
finding him in a field close
to his home, opened fire on
him. He escaped injury. Talley then
turned the weapon on horse, send
ing bullet through its body.
A shot intended for the brother of
Marshall went through the side of a
house occupied by Nick Robinson, strik-
ing smell child, seriously wounding
her. All are colored. Talley es-
capped and has not been apprehended.

PERILS OF RICHES.

That John D. Rockefeller, richest
man in the world, his son John D.. Jr.
and his grandchildren are really in
grave danger and, that this fact is the
reason for the presence of an armed
force of regular guards at the Pecan
tico Hills estate and also for the oil
magnate's hiring force of detec-
tives to protect him, is practically adj
mitted.
Although doing their best to allay
any outward feeling Of alarm, and
denying that threats had been made
the persons charged with guarding
the property here privately admitted
that an organized attempt to black
mail Rockefeller has been made. He
has received letters, or at least they
reached his secretaries, demanding
that an enormous sum of money bepaid
to men for immunity from molestation
These letters are the output of the
Black Hand organization which has
been operating all through the Cro-
ton Lake region. 1t is believed that
among the members are some ltal-
ians who have worked on the Rookie
Teller estate and are perfectly famil-
lar with every foot of the ground and
the movements of the members OF the
family.
The very fact that some Of the let
tiers were mailed at Palermo leads the
police and detectives to place more
reliance in the demands than they
would otherwise. Palermo is the
headquarters of the real Black Hand
whose name has been borrowed by
many isolated blackmailers in this
country. 1t was there that Joe Pc
trosino, the noted New York detec-
tive, was murdered.
While it has been impossible to get
complete details of the character Of
the demand, it is known that it was
a very large sum. 1t was also made
plain that if the money was not forth
coming members of the family would
be marked for kidnapping and, that
failing, for death.
The fact that his grandchildren
were specifically mentioned has
troubled the oil king more than any
thing else. He has felt that both
himself and son were more or less
able to care for themselves, but the
babies are the apples of the old mans
eyes. He delights to spend hours
with them and he has given specific
orders to guards who watch the
house that anyone seen interfering
with the children is to be dealt with
without mercy.

LIGHTNING ON THE RAMPAGE.
Splits Tree, Kills Horses, Throws
Down People and Stuns Many.

Winchester, Va, Sept. An unu-
sually severe rain and electrical storm
caused much damage to barns and
crops in Clarke county Monday.
Lightning struck a large tree at

America were holding reunion. 1t
demolished the tree, ran down a tour
nament wire, killed two thoroughbred
stations owned by Charles E. Grim,
and stunned scores of people.
Many were hurled violently to the
ground, and some were rendered I'M
conscious. Several horses becoming
excited caused stampede, and one
track horse was kicked to death.

WOMAN BURNS TO DEATH.
Had Escaped From House, But Re-
turns to Save Papers.

Petersburg, Va, Sept. AFTER be-
ing rescued safely from her burning
residence in Dinwiddie county, near
here, early yesterday morning, Mrs.
w. H. Hawkins returned to her room
to get some valuable papers and was
burned to death in the presence Of her
two daughters, who had gotten her
out safely.
A party of men who were out hunt
ing coons discovered the fire and woke
Mrs. Hawkins and her two daughters,
who was as yet unaware of the blaze.
All succeeded in getting out scantily
clad, but it was a narrow escape, for
the flames were shooting up toward
the roof. Suddenly Mrs. Hawkins re-
membered that she had left behind
some valuable papers, and in spite Of
warning from her daughters and the
men in the hunting party insisted on
attempting to go back into the house
and get the documents.
Hidden by smoke she entered the
door, and was never seen again until
her charred body was found after the
fire was distinguished. Her screams,
however, could be distinctly heard by
the two daughters and hunters, who,
helpless, had to stand outside while
she was burning to death. The house
was nearly destroyed as facilities for
fighting the blaze could not be secured.
