BOY KILLS TWO, WOUNDS ONE.
Ten. Year-Old Lad Says He Shot to
Save Father.

Norfolf, Va, Aug. 15.-Ten-year
old Rudolph De Waters killed two per-
sons and sent another to the hospital
with a bullet in his groin last night.
The shooting occurred in front of his
home on Third street, Lafayette resi-"
dence park annex, and the boy says
he did it to save his father, Henry
De Waters, from being done to death
by four Italians neighbors. The dead
are:
Nicola Battigliere.
Marina Battigliere, Nicolas wife
Those in st. Vincent Hospital with
bullet wounds, one from young Ru-
dolph's gun and the other thought to
be shot by Nichola Battigliere, are
Mike and Charlie Battigliere, brothers
of Marina Battigliere. All four lived
two doors from the De Waters.
The shooting came as the result OF
long-standing feud between the
children of the two houses, and threw
the suburb into the greatest ex-
element it has ever known.
Henry De Waters, the father OF the
'1o-year-old hero, received a .32-callber
bullet in the feshy part of his right
shoulder, but the wound is not consId-
cred dangerous.

GIRL MUST GO TO DEATH CHAIR.
Gov. Mann Decides Not to Interfere to
Save Virginia Christian.

Richmond, Va, Aug. 15.-Governor
Mann was advised today that w. G.
Anderson, a Chicago lawyer, was en-
route to Richmond to appear before
him tomorrow morning and plead for
mercy for Virginia Christian, the IT.
year-old negro girl, who goes to the
electric chair on Friday morning for
the murder of Mrs. Ida Virginia Be-
lote, at Hampton, Va, last March.
Gov. Mann stated that he would
give Mr.. Anderson an audience, but
that his trip would be futile, as he
could find no foundation for his inter-
ence with the decree Of the Hampton
court. The girls spiritual adviser and
relatives will visit her tomorrow for
the last time. She appears indiffer-
ent to the fate that awaits her.
The governor also refused to grant
further respite to permit a Chicago
alienist to examine the girl, stating
that alienists in Virginia were compe-
tent to do the work if necessary.
