Richmond, Va., April 23.—Stripped to the waist and bound to a tree, a young negro was beaten almost senseless last night by cadets from i the Virginia Polytechnic institute at va Blacksburg. The negro was accused ‘ of inulting white girls. L. F. Robinson and L. C. Cotten, two of Rich Hill’s prominent and progressive citizens, we are glad to say, have located in Butler and have engaged in the mercantile business, having purchased the stock of goods of Bryant Bros. on the north side. The store which had been closed 4 couple of days to involce and make necessary changes; was thrown open Saturday for business, and the pub lic was served with a hot cup of ex- cellent coffee and light lunch. The new firm had a crowded store all day and did a driving trade. Tae ‘Tuwes extends a hearty welcome to the firm and wishes them unbounded While out snipe shooting south- east of town Tuesday, Harry Brown of this city, was accidentally shot by his brother Roy, but was only very slightly injured. The boys were walking along a narrow slough, one on either side, when a snipe flew up between them and Roy fired, scatter ing a few bird shot into hie brother’s face and hands. Harry came home, and after picking a dozen or 80 shot ont of his hide, started after more snipe. Itis fortunate that the ac- cident did not result more seriously and it noes be @ lesson to all hun- ters to use test care at all times.—Rockville Star. ¥ Makes a Clean Sweep.
