HOODOO MEDICINE
DOCTOR IN COURT
WHITE GIRL DRINKS CONCOC
TON AND Is DRIVEN AL
MOST INSANE.

LYNCHBURG, VA. Sept 24.-The
position Of ''yarb" medicine or
some other connection which caused
tered by an alleged negro doctor to
white girl, according TO the testi-
mony of physician, was regarded
as a case into which further inves-
tinued this morning in Police court
on account of the absence of two i'm
portant witnesses.
When it comes up before Mayor
Smith again 1t promises to reveal
several interesting details that were
not touched or at the hearing today.
The case involved is that against
George Hunt, a middle-aged negro,
who was arrested last week on the
charge OF practicing medicine in the
city without license
From the evidence brought out IN
the case this morning it seems that
the old darkey innocently figured in
his own arrest, although it may be
shown later that he was actually en-
gagged in the practice of medicine in
competition with others in the pro-
fession, and did sell, as was charged
in the warrant.
One witness stated on the stand
that he was acquainted with a white
family in which there was "A young
Eirl. Annie Duncan, who had been
i'll for long time. and medical aid
had failed to give her any relief, She
told him that she was desperate. as
she had found that the physicians
were unable to do her any good The
/ witness stated that he advised the
Young lady not Ito do anything rash,
and encouraged her by saying that
he knew an old negro who mixed
herbs arid he thought he could cure
her
The old negro was sent for and the
witness stated that he paid him 50. so
for the medicine prescribed. After
taking the first bottle the girls father
Henry Duncan, in his testimony, said
that members Of the family were oil
the opinion that she showed signs OF
Improvement in her condition. bat
when she began taking the second
bottle~-a different colored medicine
she became violently sick It was
stated by DR.. f. +. Younger that she
is now out of her mind and almost q
raving maniac. The girls mother j:
almost on the verge of nervous pros
tration over the daughters condition
and was unable to appear in cour
and testify in the case.
The court thought that the pres
ence OF the girl and mother wa.
necessary and he did not care to have
the case go on further without them
and it was continued October Cd
Hunt was admitted to bail in the same
sum on Which he was released short
ly aftes his arrest.

RUNAWAY GIRLS
ARE BROUGHT HOME
CORA CHILDRESS AND MARY A.
JOHNSON ARRIVED FROM
CINCINNATI YESTERDAY.

Mary Agnes Johnson, aged sixteen
and Cora Childress. fifteen, who ran
away from their home here several
days ago and who were arrested in
Cincinnati for their parents. were re-
turned to Richmond yesterday in GUS
tody of the conductor ia Chesa-
peake and Ohio train. Both girls APP
peared to be glad to get HON again
when they were met at the depot by
Detective Sergeant Fred Krengel. who
took them to their homes.
Cora Childress lives at 513 North
Twelfth street and the Johnston girl
at 500 Poe street. Barton Heights.
Both appear TO have had enough of
the running away from home expert
ence. They were captured in Gin
cinnati because of a letter one of
them had written to her home here
for money enough to come home on
In reply to this letter a decoy letter
was sent to Cincinnati and when call
was made at the general delivery WIN
dow in the postoffice at that city. the
girls were placed under arrest.
About the time that Mary john
son left her home a warrant for her
on charge Of incorrigibility was Is
sued on complaint OF her mother.
This girl will probably be sent to
Baltimore and placed in home for
girls.

peared it has been enthusiastically re-
ceived by large and appreciative au-
diences. "One Day" is announced to
appear this coming week al the Bijou

then have an opportunity of witness
ing the sequel to Miss Glyn's sensa-
tional Three Weeks"
